How do layered rainbow drip candles work? Each candle is poured in bands of different colors stacked along its length. As the candle burns down through one band and into the next, the color of the melted wax changes. Drip it on the skin and you get a pattern that shifts through the rainbow over the course of a session, without swapping candles. These three are made for wax play, from a soy and paraffin blend that melts at 118 to 126 degrees Fahrenheit.
Pride Candles: a full rainbow in every drip candle
Pride Candles are a set of three slim drip candles for wax play. Instead of one color per candle, each is built in layers that run through the rainbow, so the wax you drip moves from shade to shade as the candle shortens. They are unscented and made from soy and paraffin wax with a melting temperature of 118 to 126 degrees Fahrenheit.
Each candle is 7.6 by 0.6 by 0.6 inches and burns for roughly 1.5 to 2 hours. The colorful wax builds up into body art, which makes the set a natural fit for photos, parties and Pride-themed scenes at home.
Best for: Partners who enjoy the warm sting of wax and want color with it, and solo players dripping on themselves. The set suits Pride events, play parties and photoshoots. With no fragrance added, it is also an option for anyone who avoids perfumed candles.

How to use
Protect the bed or floor with a towel, blanket or drop cloth. Light one candle and give it a short while to start melting. The distributor's directions are to blow it out, then hold it about 3 feet from the body and let the wax fall. Start with a single drop on a forearm to judge the heat. Pour slowly, and smooth the wax with your hand if it lands too hot, since spreading cools it. Avoid the face, hair and genitals, keep checking in with your partner, and stop when they ask. Do not walk away from a burning candle.
Care
- Wait for the wax to cool, then peel or wipe it off the skin.
- Wash with body wash to lift the residue and moisturize afterward.
- Peel cooled wax off any surfaces it reached.
- Let the candles cool fully before you put them away.
- Keep the set somewhere cool and dry so the wax does not soften.

Frequently asked questions
Are these candles safe to drip on skin?
They are sold for wax play and melt at 118 to 126 degrees Fahrenheit. Follow the directions: drip from about 3 feet, pour slowly and test on a small area first. Skin sensitivity varies, so go gradually and listen to your partner.
How long do the candles burn?
Each one burns for approximately 1.5 to 2 hours, according to the distributor. With three candles in the set, that is enough wax for more than one session of play.
How is this set different from the Glow Wax candles?
Pride Candles are three candles with rainbow layers in each. Glow Wax is a set of four single-color neon candles that react to black light. Both are unscented soy and paraffin candles of a similar size.
Do they have a fragrance?
No. The candles are unscented. The distributor points this out for people who dislike perfumes, and no fragrance appears in the materials, which are listed as soy and paraffin wax only.
How do I clean up afterward?
Once the wax has cooled it peels or wipes away from skin and surfaces. Use body wash to remove what is left on the skin, then moisturize. Laying down a drop cloth beforehand keeps wax off bedding.
