Finish 7 by Spring Update #2

Hello lovelies, time for my second update for my Finish 7 by Spring project pan. I am happy to say that I have reached my goal on 2 out of my 7 products. I'll get right into it! 

I have hit pan on the contour color in the Wet n Wild Contour palette and in the Wet n Wild Reserve Your Cabana "bronzer". I plan on continuing to use these over the next month to see how much bigger the pans can get, but for the purposes of the project, they are done! 

Wet n Wild - Coverall Powder - My pan is growing and growing every day! I don't think I will have too much trouble finishing this up for next month, but I may have product around the rim of the pan. I hope I can get through it all though. I don't plan on repressing it since it is such an inexpensive product.

Dr. Brandt Pores no More Primer - I think I have less in this tube than I think I do. I really can't wait to get through this because I don't really like it. I don't know why people have been obsessing over this lately, but it really isn't for me.

CVS Brow Pencil sample in Brown - This is the one product that I am sure I won't get through. It is alright and I will continue working on it.

Maybelline Babylips in Yummy Plummy - I made the mistake of throwing this in my purse, and I didn't get much use out of it. I have it on my desk now though so I am sure I can get it really close to being done of not actually finishing it in the next month.

Rimmel East End Snob lip liner - I have just the littlest bit of this left. I have no doubt that I will get through this without a problem. I just need to make sure I am actually using it and not straying to my other lip liners like I have been. 

Overall, I think I can finish 6 out of the 7 products that I chose out. That would be really exciting for me since it would be my most successful project that I have done so far! Happy panning lovelies! 

Finish 7 by Spring Update # 1

Hello lovelies, I bring you all today my first update for my Finish 7 by Spring project pan. While I haven't finished anything, I have made incredible progress on everything and I am confident that this will be a successful project! 

Wet n Wild Contour Palette (Hit pan on contour side) - There is a major dip going through this product now. I have been using it everyday and I am not sick of it yet, so I guess I'll just keep going. 

Wet n Wild Coverall Powder - There is pan as well as visibility of the pan underneath. I have been really enjoying this powder. I feel like I am going through it much faster than I would the Rimmel Stay Matte Powder, but I like that this gives me a little added coverage and it is a good shade for me right now. At the rate that I am using this, it will definitely be done in 2 months. 

Wet n Wild Reserve Your Cabana - no pan and hardly a dip. I think when I repressed this I did it a little too well. I target my brush in the same spot everyday, but still nothing. The only product I am actually worried about.

dr. brandt Pores no more primer - Didn't make too much progress on this, but I am not worried. Once I get through my Smashbox primer for my finish 14 by Feb. 14 project this will be my main focus. 

CVS sample Brow Pencil in Brown - made pretty good progress on this. I use it everyday so that isn't too shocking. I don't know how far I will be able to take this pencil before I can't sharpen it anymore, but I will just keep using it until I do. It isn't as warm as I would like my brows to be so I really just want this out.

Maybelline Babylips in Yummy Plummy - I don't think I have ever made such little progress on a babylips before. I am not worried though. I actually really like the color of this one and am considering repurchasing once I am done with it even though I said I wouldn't purchase anymore of them. The color of this just works really well with the natural color of my lips.

Rimmel East End Snob lip liner - I decided that the Revlon eye liner was just a bad idea so I switched it out for this. This is a really creamy pencil so I am not too worried about finishing it. I mean look at the progress I have made in 2 weeks alone. These pencils are too creamy for my personal preference unless I am using it with a matte lipstick, which I don't wear often. I am not the biggest fan of this color so I do want this lip liner out of my collection. 

So I think I have made decent progress on everything. By next update I would have really liked to have hit pan on the contour powder and to have half of that coverall powder finished. Happy Panning! 

Project Pan 7 by Spring

Hello lovelies, I have recently been seeing some people posting their 7 by Spring Project Pans, and thought why not join in! It is slightly crazy for me to believe that Spring is a thing, we haven't even really had Winter yet here in Michigan. There was one day with some light snow, but nothing that I would consider Winter worthy. Anyway, I had to really think about what product I want to add into this project because I have 2 projects currently happening and I didn't want products to overlap and keep me from being able to start using them until those projects are done. So while these products aren't particularly exciting, they are the ones that I want to move out of my collection and be done with. Side note: all except one of these are products that happen to be in my makeup use up 2016, not sure if that will keep happening, but for this project it worked out.  

In no particular order I'll just jump into the products! 

1. Revlon - Colorstay eye liner in Charcoal - This pencil is basically brand new. I haven't done more than just swatch it. I am excited to get to use this because although I have worn silver eyeliner, I have never really played around with just a gray eyeliner before. 

2. CVS brow sample in brown - I just want this out of my collection. Although it is smaller I don't know how this pencil will apply and I got away with sharpening other brow pencils every few uses or so and they took me longer to use than I had anticipated.

3. Maybelline - Babylips in Yummy Plummy - I made it my goal to get rid of these things and panning them has seemed to work so far! This is one that doesn't have much use out of it, but I actually like the color pay off of it. Will be nice for those days where I just can't be bothered.

4. Wet n Wild - Contouring Palette - I want to hit pan on the contour side. I don't think this will be too hard, especially since I really like this product. I don't really care for the light powder though. 

5. Wet n Wild - Reserve Your Cabana - This is the "bronzer" that everyone uses as a highlight. I don't care much for it honestly. I shattered when my niece dropped it and I repressed it. It used to be very powdery and I could have probably hit pan already, but I think I pressed it too tight. Who knows though, I may end up liking it better now that it isn't as cakey looking on my skin. The goal is to just hit pan on this product.

6. Wet n Wild - Coverall Powder - I want to use this all up. I am a bit worried about that since the last powder that I finished took me forever, but I haven't been using this for that long and I already see the honeycomb pattern of the pan showing. 

7. dr. brandt - Pores no More primer - This isn't that big of a product, but since I am still working on my other primer for my Finish 14 by Feb 14, I want to make sure that I can actually get to it and actually finish it up. I feel like it takes me forever to get through primers even if I remember to wear them everyday.

Well there are my 7 products for you. I wanted to make sure that I can be successful at finishing all 7 products. Even when I hit pan on the products that that is the goal for, I will probably keep going until March 20th using them. I will be posting monthly updates on the 20th of each month....or I will at least try to! Happy Panning! 

Sorry about the horrible quality photos, I have been moving my room and there is next to no sunlight since it has been raining for days. Winter is not going to be easy if the sun continues to hide away!
