What Are Candle Refills?

Candle refills are exactly what they sound like – a fresh wax candle ready for your existing Nera jar. All you need to do is clean out the empty jar and drop in the refill.

Each refill is made from natural soy wax and comes with minimal packaging. This makes them perfect if you want to cut down on waste without sacrificing comfort.

We also sell empty Nera jars if you don’t have one yet. These are great if you don’t want to buy a full candle with a gift box or luxury packaging. They are perfect for starting our Monthly Refill Subscription Service!

The Nera Subscription: A New Scent Every Month

If you enjoy discovering new scents or simply want one less thing to remember, our monthly refill subscription is a great solution. Each month, you’ll receive a new Nera fragrance, specially curated to reflect the season or evoke different emotions. It's a simple, low-waste way to explore our full range without buying a new candle each time.

Here’s something we’re really proud of: £1 from every monthly subscription payment goes to a UK-based addiction charity! So every time you light a Nera candle, you help someone find light in their own journey.

How to Clean Out Your Candle Jar

Cleaning your jar is easy and can be done in just a few steps:

Place the finished candle jar in a container of hot water for a few minutes.
Once the remaining wax softens, remove the jar and wipe the inside with a cloth or kitchen roll.
Wash the jar with warm soapy water and let it dry fully before inserting your new refill.

That’s all it takes to keep your jar in use!

Why It Matters

We know a candle won’t change the world, but thoughtful choices can make a difference.

Choosing a refillable candle means less waste, reduced packaging, and more intention in your purchases. It also allows you to keep the jar that's been part of your quiet evenings, reflective moments, or healing spaces. By continuing that ritual, you add meaning to your everyday life.

At Nera, this mission is important to us. It's not just about candles; it’s about connection, recovery, and purpose.

The Emotional Connection to Candles

Candles often symbolize warmth, relaxation, and mindfulness. They can fill our spaces with soothing scents, making our homes feel comforting. Each time you light a candle, you create a moment for yourself or with loved ones. The act of lighting a candle can signal a pause in your day, a chance to reflect or enjoy.

By choosing Nera's refillable candles, you maintain that emotional connection while also making an environmentally friendly choice. It's an easy way to focus on what matters most.
