Our wickless candles are hand poured in the beautiful Sonoran desert with premium soy wax and are heated by a warmer, not burned by flame/fire, allowing the scent to fill the space. The wax does not evaporate like a candle with a wick, the scent fades and the wax can be safely disposed of. A wickless candle eliminates the chance of fire, flame and soot making it a safer choice for places that do not allow open flame candles like dorms, assisted living, and most work places.
