How does wax in a lava lamp work?

What happens to the wax as the mass of the candle gets less?
Just like logs on a campfire or oil in an old-fashioned lamp, wax in a candle is actually fuel for the flame itself. The candle continues burning as long as there is wax to be melted & soaked into the wick. As it burns, the wax oxidizes into water vapor, CO2, and, of course, light. Wax continues to melt around the flame and soak up the wick to be used as fuel, causing the candle appear to "disappear" as we watch it burn.
