PROJECT 20 PAN

After cleaning my make-up collection and keeping just the make-up I like I realized that I still have lot of things and they are either half way used or just deluxe samples. As I always test new make-up I hardly ever use up the whole product. And this is sad because very often I test things that are, at the end, not so great while products that I really like sit aside.

This is why I decided to do a Project 20 pan. Basically I chose 20 products that I will try to use up by the end of certain time (end of March) before I move to new product in that category. For the first pan project I chose easy, well-loved products that I think I’ll be able to use up fairly quickly.

Project 20 PAN

Here is what I chose and how much use out of it I think I will get:

1. The Multitasker face powder by Milani (almost done, I expect max 2 weeks of use)
2. Prep & prime face primer by MAC (half way done, probably 2 months of use)
3. Shadow insurance Eye shadow primer by Too Faced (almost done, 1 month of use)
4. Pro Longwear concealer by MAC (half way done, 1 month of use)
5. Double wear stay in place concealer by Estee Lauder (almost done, 2 weeks of use)
6. Outlast stay fabulous foundation by CoverGirl (half way done, 1 month of use)
7. Face & Body foundation by MAC (half way done, 1 month of use)
8. Fix plus by MAC (travel size, one month of use)
9. BB cream Skin miracle by Garnier (almost done, 2 weeks of use)
10. SuperShock eyeshadow base pot by Avon (half way done, I month of use)
11. Brow gel by Anastasia (deluxe sample, 2 months of use)
12. 2 in 1 eye boosting eyeliner by Physician Formula (almost done, 2 weeks of use)
13. Eyeshadow pencil in colour Champagne Toast by Milani (1/3 done, 2 months of use)
14. Eyeshadow pencil in champagne by WJ cosmetics (1/3 done, 2 months of use)
15. Eye pencil in colour Bronze by Bourjois (full size, 2 moths)
16. Lash exact mascara by CoverGirl (almost done, maybe 2 weeks of use)
17. 2000 calories mascara by Max Factor (deluxe sample, 1 month and half of use)
18. Volume mascara by Essence (almost done, maybe 2 weeks of use)
19. Lipstick in colour Angel by MAC (1/3 left, 2 months of use)
20. Lip pencil in colour Nude by NYX (full size, 2 months to use)

As you can see some products are almost used up. But it happens to me very often that I put them aside and start testing new products without finishing anything and throwing it away. It is obvious from the picture that 20 products is quite an amount so when I finish them all, there will be quite a lot of space left behind (maybe for new products?).

If you are doing Project Pan let me know what and how many products have you chosen and what’s your “deadline” for using them up. Good luck with it!
