WHAT IS A CANDLE WARMER?

A candle warmer initially looks like an ordinary lamp – which is great as it will only take up a small section of your dresser. But rather it electronically heats up the candle to ensure an evenly melted wax and the scent subtly distributes across the entire space.

WHAT ARE THE PROS?

When burning a candle with a flame, the wax evaporates faster than when melted with a warming light. Therefore, the lifespan of your candle using a warmer can last up to three times longer.

Additionally, using electricity to heat the candle reduces the safety risks of an open flame.
