Soy Candles

Handmade with love by one pair of hands.

Take a look at our small but mighty collection of seasonal and classic candle scents which are stocked all year round. All candles are handmade in Lancashire and use vegan ingredients sourced from the UK to create stong scented and best smelling scents for your home or office.

Collection: Soy Wax Candles

Handmade, Small Batch Soy Wax Candles Crafted with Love

Each of our handmade soy wax candles is a testament to the time, care, and attention that goes into creating a truly exceptional product. Made in my Lancashire-based studio, every candle is lovingly hand-poured by me, Naomi, in small batches to ensure the highest quality.

Using only the finest ingredients—pure soy wax, premium fragrance oils, and a natural cotton wick—our candles offer a clean, simple burn that you can feel good about.

Why Choose our Soy Wax Candles?

Soy wax is a natural, renewable resource derived from soybeans, making it an eco-friendly and sustainable choice. Unlike paraffin wax, which is a byproduct of petroleum, soy wax is biodegradable from natural and renewable sources. This means that when you burn one of our soy wax candles, you’re not only treating your home to a beautiful fragrance but also making a greener, healthier choice for your environment.

Another benefit of soy wax is its longer burn time. Our candles, made with approximately 170g of pure soy wax, offer an impressive burn time of around 35 - 40 hours. Soy wax burns at a lower temperature than paraffin, allowing the candle to last longer while releasing its fragrance more evenly. With soy wax, you get more value for your money and a candle that fills your space with a consistent aroma.

Why Handmade Candles Are Better Than Mass-Produced

When you purchase a handmade candle from Wild Venus, you're not just buying a product—you’re supporting a craftsperson who has poured time, love, and care into every step of the process to make sure you're going to get the best experience from your candle - I care about what I make and I care that you're going to love it!

In contrast, mass produced candles are bought to market quickly, without the care and dedication taken to ensure a good product (how many candles have I bought from Tesco, Aldi or Marks and Spencers that smell great in the store but when you light the candle - nothing!?)

Anyway, our candles are created in small, carefully monitored batches and this hands-on approach ensures that every candle we produce meets the highest standards of quality, from the pour to the burn.

The difference is in the details: mass-produced candles can suffer from inconsistencies like uneven burning or tunneling, which leaves wasted wax. With our hand-poured soy candles, you can expect an even burn all the way through, maximising your candle’s lifespan and fragrance. Each candle is poured and inspected by hand, ensuring that it delivers a superior burn and scent experience every time.

Simple Ingredients for an exceptional burn

Our candles are free from unnecessary additives. What you get is a simple, clean-burning candle made from the highest quality materials: pure soy wax, fragrance oil, and a natural cotton wick. This combination guarantees a smooth, clean burn.

Crafted with Care in Every Jar

Each of our soy wax candles comes in a stylish, minimalistic jar that blends effortlessly with any décor. Whether you’re looking to set the mood for a cozy evening or add a touch of elegance to your home, our candles are designed to elevate any space. 

At the heart of our brand is a dedication to craftsmanship, quality, and sustainability. By choosing our handmade soy candles, you’re not just getting a product—you’re choosing a better, more thoughtful way to experience fragrance.

Really lovely products. Wouldn’t use anything else on my skin now. I’m using the revive and my daughter glow moisturiser her skin has completely cleared up. Thank you 😊

I've just bought the Glow and Revive face creams again, my favourite is the Everyday one but I like to use the others in the morning. I also ordered two candles for Christmas gifts. They are fabulous. Thank you Naomi.

OMG. Just lighted my Hot Apple Strudel candle and the room is filled (but not over-filled) with fragrance - apple at first followed by cinnamon and spice. Such a joy. i've had a number of WV candles before and they always burn well and the fragrance lasts and lasts. Perfect for presents or as a present for yourself.

I bought some products from Naomi at a craft show and have since ordered more, which arrived last week (loved the packaging and the little samples!). I have been poorly this year and noticed that my skin was looking a bit dull and grotty. I didn't want to use high street stuff, full of ingredients I've never heard of, so I was pleased to find Wild Venus. The balancing cleanser has had a marked improvement, my skin feels smoother and less patchy. The Revive Serum and Moisturiser are fantastic and work really well together, leaving my skin feel nourished and without any greasiness - in fact, my skin feels much less greasy thanks to this new routine! I also bought the tattoo balm, which I've been using on an existing tattoo and I'm pleased to see an improvement in the definition, but I'm not sure I'd feel comfortable using it on a new tattoo as it has a sticky, slightly gritty consistency which I think might make it hard to apply to fresh ink. I think it's safe to say that I'm a convert to Naomi's products - I'll be buying more when I've got through these PS... I'd love an eye cream to get rid of puffiness please!

I discovered Wild Venus at a Christmas Fayre and LOVE them, and so does my very sensitive skin. The hand balm and Moisturisers are my favourites- beautiful fragrances and feel lovely on my skin when applied. I now give them as Christmas and birthday gifts to my friends.

I've ordered several times and the products have always been excellent. The scents are lovely and my most recent order arrived beautifully presented ready for gifting at Christmas. The whole package smelled amazing even before I'd opened it <3

I love these products, they smell amazing, look fab and gentle on my skin. They make great gifts, I have bought lots as gifts for friends who have then asked where they can buy more. Naomi, the owner, is lovely and very knowledgeable, so if you can get along to a market it’s worth going along and meeting her too.
