Yup, it's a PAIN to remove the wax, but you can actually reuse them as ceramic containers. This one is a medium size so it's actually a pretty sizeable container, though for the soot sprites they are "stickers" (dunno what you call the process) and may not stand up to scrubbing/abrasion.

It was fairly easy to remove my Dyptique candle wax with a hair dryer and paper towel. Then I rinse the container with a bit of hand soap and water to get out any oily residue. I would assume that Loewe’s wax melts similarly under hair dryer heat?
 
I think all the listings are from the same account though, and I really doubt the items would move at these insane prices! Really hate scalpers.
You're right, the listings are from the same couple of accounts, probably professional scalpers.
That's so annoying to hear the scalpers are in action already... Especially after us normal consumers were experiencing so many technical issues with the website yesterday! I wonder if the high demand from last year's collab signalled to them that this year's collab could be another profiteering opportunity for them (and probably exacerbating the high loads faced by the official website too)... :mad: Seriously hoping that their listings don't sell, though! :cursing:

I usually pour boiling water into the candle holder to melt any leftover wax - it'll float to the top and harden as it cools. Then just scoop out the sheet of hardened wax. This may need to be repeated a few times to clean out all the wax residue from the holder. Then I wash in warm water with a bit of detergent and dry.
 
Just a handful of items being sold here

Yes, I did something similar, but somehow I had a lot of difficulty removing the oily residue and in the process actually stripped the interior color a little. We have several other candles from Loewe that aren't depleted yet but will be trying again on those when the time comes, hopefully it wouldn't be as challenging!

I will try this method instead for the next one! Thanks for the tip!
 
Just came back from the Loewe store! Really got the small puzzle bag and it is divine! I love the marquetry, it is incredible! And the leather is supersoft. Just put Collonil nanospray on it for protection. Fingers crossed it stays the same, but it did not change the leather of my other bags.

I was so excited! No spending now anymore! Oh and I got one lottery tag, too. So cool. No win though.

Excited to see how well the bag wears, as it is my first Loewe bag. Have been eyeing the puzzle for a long time and happy my first is from this collection!

Anybody who got the puzzle from the Totoro collection and can report how they like their puzzle and how the marquetry holds up?

Here are my goodies, they too cute!

I received a free notebook from each store and scratchie (didn’t win). The packaging hasn’t arrived yet due to shipment delays so they said to pick it up from tues next week.

Love the notebooks!
Is the ceramic container of the candle reusable after you're done with the candle? I'm thinking if that's a worthy purchase despite its price tag haha.

I have a couple and they look great as plant/flower pots.

They are! I also love the sprite charm with the yellow star! Had to leave it back as I already ordered it yesterday during the presale. Seriously hoping the order goes through!

Oh and that white shawl is gorgeous and huge! Would have loved it, too, but the bag already is a splurge…
 
Just back from the Paris Loewe flagship store which has a great selection (while it lasts I guess :) )

So much fun seeing the pieces in real life. The Chihiro hammock bag is stunning! I know I would be afraid to use it.

Got the mini soot puzzle - it is adorable and I love the small puzzle I already have, so hope to get good wear out of the mini. Lovely SA too in the boutique.
