Here are just a few of the benefits you can expect by using Authentic Scentsy wickless warmers:
There is no open flame which means no danger of causing a fire around curtains or other combustible materials in your home or workplace. Click here to learn more about How Scentsy Products Work.
NO flame also means, NO SMOKE and/or SOOT. This soot can damage the walls, floors and ceilings of your home as well as your personal belongings. Remember, there is never any danger of this happening with our wickless candle bars.
Scentsy Wickless Candle Bars do not melt, just the scent evaporates. This means there is no danger of smoke, soot, or lead being released into your home or workplace.
· With Scentsy, there is NO WORRY of leaving the house or office with a candle left burning. No SOOT, NO WICK, NO FLAME, NO WAX BUILD UP, and most people with allergies and asthma can use Scentsy with no problems because it is only the scent that is being released.
· Authentic Scentsy Wickless Candle Bars and Electric Warmers can be used in areas that typically do not allow candle burning, such as business offices, dorm rooms, doctor offices, and classrooms.
Additionally, you still have a beautiful Scentsy Warmer, as it’s a onetime purchase! When you buy Scentsy candles, you are also making an investment. No more jars left to be thrown away after you’ve burned a candle. When traditional candles get covered in soot people tend to buy the lampshades/covers and sleeves to set them in, which in turn cost more money, so now your $18 to $20 candle is more like $45 or more because you had to cover it up! Scentsy Warmers are so aesthetically pleasing and don’t get covered with soot, therefore you want to “hide” them. You’re also able to decorate in ways with Scentsy Warmers, traditional candles will not allow for due to the open flame. With a Scentsy warmer, you are adding to your household décor, plus helping to eliminate waste in the environment. You’re also saving your home and loved ones from the potential chemicals produced by jar candles.
When you consider the safety and health advantages to no flame, no soot, no smoke, combined with money savings over a traditional wicked jar candle, why would you buy any else other than Scentsy. Scentsy is one of the best in the industry with over 80 long lasting fragrances and a life time warranty.
Bottom line, Scentsy Wickless Candles have NO smoke and NO open flame, thus are far safer to use and ensure a more efficient release of fragrance.
