Chem Play

Chem Play

I'm wanting to explore Chem play a bit more. What are some things I can try? What's been your favorite Chem play items? What's been your worse? Got any tips? I'll be playing solo

Not much help in that I never got into that. I merely post to recommend extreme caution with chem play, especially going solo. There's the risk of injury or scarring except if there are any "chems" designed for the purpose that I do not know about.

But there are safer things to use that may give the same thrills without risking lasting damage... stuff like Icy Hot or Absorbine Plus on "special" places
Those can charge your batteries like (some say anyway) of the tingly-cold zippy zing of Altoids on a schlong when you give a dude a hummer.

Hopefully others with experience in "Chem Play" will chime in on this thread to offer you better advice than mine--- which is "Just watch out with those things"

I guess I need a more clear definition of what chem play is.

Is it the use of intoxicants/drugs in some kind of scene play? I would prefer safe and sober in that context.

Is it the use of skin irritants, acids, or outright toxic substances applied directly to the body in some kind of sadistic/masochistic play? HARD LIMIT for me, unless you are talking about wax play, which I have tried (or rather, been subjected to.) Wax peels off safely; acid burns can scar and damage, and cause other health issues.

Master’s punishment collection of Tobasco Hot sauces:

1. Green Jalapeño 🔥
2. Chipotle Pepper 🔥🔥
3. Red Pepper 🔥🔥🔥
4. Habanero 🔥🔥🔥🔥
5. Scorpion 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
( For nipples, clit, vaginal, anal )
* Use lube prior to any penetration. After: Wash with oil, milk or yogurt.
* Cleanse throughly after to avoid infection.
( Does not cause permanent damage; the “burn” is nerve reaction to capsaicin )
* Note: If the stronger hot sauces penetrate past anus to rectum, clenching & contractions are automatic. Taking ibuprofen prior will prevent that (& prostaglandin cramping).
* Pain does not stop immediate after removal; usually gone within half hour, but in extreme cases can last 2 hours) .
( Master enjoys making me endure these with Lovense Dolce, Lush & Hush remote toys).

My understanding is that chem play refers to, similar to chem sex, play with use of certain drugs like mephedrone/MCat, GHB/GBL/Ecstasy, poppers or hard drugs like cocaine, amphetamine or methamphetamine or so.

According to Grok, Ai:
In the BDSM and kink communities, “chem play” (often spelled as one word or hyphenated as “chem-play”) typically refers to a form of sensation play that involves the intentional application of mild chemical irritants or substances to the skin or mucous membranes to produce heightened tactile sensations. These can range from tingling, warming, cooling, or numbing effects to more intense burning or stinging, often applied to erogenous zones like the genitals, nipples, anus, or urethra. The goal is to amplify arousal, intensify orgasms, or explore pain-pleasure boundaries through these chemical reactions.    It’s distinct from drug use or intoxication play (sometimes called “chems” in party-and-play contexts involving substances like poppers or methamphetamine), though some overlap exists in broader discussions.  
Common Substances and Techniques
Substances used are usually everyday or over-the-counter items, chosen for their reactive properties rather than toxicity. Examples include:
• Menthol-based products (e.g., Vicks VapoRub or Tiger Balm): Create a cooling-then-warming tingle.
• Capsaicin sources (e.g., hot sauce, Tabasco, or capsaicin cream): Produce intense burning sensations.
• Ginger root (figging): Carved into plugs or strips and inserted anally/vaginally for a natural, escalating burn from its oils.
• Toothpaste or desensitizing gels: Mild minty irritation or numbing for sensitivity play.
• Icy Hot or similar balms: Deep heat or cold effects.
Application often involves rubbing, insertion, or direct contact during scenes, sometimes combined with other activities like impact

I would be interested in hearing what others have tried as well. I don't want to Icy Hot myself to death while I do want to feel something. Regarding Tobasco Hot sauces, is that safe for inside (anal) and out?
