How it works
Pour. Wick. Light.
A candle you make yourself, in minutes, in any vessel you love.
01
Pour
Pour the sand wax into your vessel and level it with a gentle shake.
02
Wick
Press the wick tube into the centre until only the tip shows.
03
Light
Light the wick and let the flame settle. Up to 40 hours per 300g.
Endless ways to ritual
Make it your own.
Your candle doesn’t have to stay the same. Change it whenever the mood, the season or the room calls for something new.
Change the shade
Swap Ivory for Onyx or Dune for Crimson. Pour a new colour whenever you feel like it.
Change the scent
Every refill is a chance to try something new. Pair any shade with the fragrance that suits the moment.
Layer it
Pour two or more shades on top of each other for stripes, gradients or a look that’s entirely yours.
The sand wax difference
Reshape. Restyle. Make it more you.
Sand wax stays loose, so you can reshape and restyle your candle whenever you like. Level it, layer it, top it up or start again — it’s always yours to change.
FAQs
What is Nuven sand wax?
Nuven sand wax is a clean-burning, pourable candle wax designed to give you more freedom with how you create and enjoy your candle. Simply pour it into your chosen vessel, add a wick and make the ritual your own.
How do I use a Nuven candle?
Pour the sand wax into a heat-safe vessel, place the wick in the centre and light it as you would a traditional candle. Once finished, you can refresh the wax, change the scent or reuse the vessel again.
How long does it burn for?
Burn time depends on the amount of wax used, the vessel and the wick setup. Each portion is designed to provide a slow, even burn when used according to the recommended instructions.

Nuven sand wax is designed for clean, considered home use. Always place your candle on a stable surface, use a suitable heat-safe vessel and follow standard candle safety guidelines while burning.
