Project Pan 2019, Update 2;-

2019 Project Pan
Its been a while since I last updated my progress on my project pan, so I thought it was about time I showed you my project pan items. Luckily because I've left it so long I've actually managed to finish up a few products! I took these photos over a month ago so I added a few more in and I'm hoping that there will still be some progress before I post a finale at the end of the year.

With no further ado here is my progress.


1. Vaseline Lip Therapy Aloe Vera (Not Cruelty Free)
As you can see from the picture I've finally used up all of my Vaseline. I really thought I'd get this done a lot quicker than I did, but I tend to keep one lip balm in my dressing table that I use morning and night, then another in my handbag to use throughout the day, so I'm always kinda working on two at once. I did end up melting my Revlon Lip Butter into the pot, but I'll mention that a bit later on.

Wilko Orange Lip Balm (Not Cruelty Free)
So next I'm moving onto my handbag lip balm, which is this super old one from Wilko. I'm pretty sure I got this has a gift well over a year ago and I don't think that Wilko's own brand is cruelty free, so I really want to get this out of my collection. As you can see I've already hit quite a lot of pan, but considering how slowly I use lip balm it will probably take me the rest of the year to finish this.

2. Charlotte Tilbury Magic Foundation - Shade 1 Fair
Finally I managed to finish up the last little bit of this foundation, I even used a straw as a spatula to try to get every last drop out and then I put a couple of drops of oil in this and used it as a tinted moisturiser for a few days. It looks like there's still some left, but I've literally got every last bit I could from this. I've said it before this is not my favourite so I'm pretty glad its done, especially as the next one I want to use is my summer foundation, so its just in time.

2. e.l.f Flawless Finish Foundation - Shade Light Ivory
So in place of my Charlotte Tilbury Foundation I now have this one from e.l.f, I like this a little better than CT one, but it doesn't last all day on me and it can look a little heavy unless I use a light hand so I do want to work my way through this. I've already used over half of this so I reckon with steady use it will be gone by the end of the year. I haven't been wearing foundation every day, but I'll definitely use it on the weekends.

3. Charlotte Tilbury Airbrush Flawless Finish - Shade 1 Fair
I've finally managed to finish the last bits from my Charlotte Tilbury powder! I don't like this powder very much and I'm pretty glad its gone, it actually ended up taking me a lot longer to finish than I thought it would, but that's probably because it was so fiddly I stopped using it every day. I only have two powders in my collection, 1 pressed and 1 loose, I like them both and they're pretty new so I won't be panning any more face powder for the moment.

Seventeen Phwoar Paint Concealer - Shade Fair (Not Cruelty Free)
So I decided I would pick my oldest concealer to move onto next. I really like using this as a spot concealer as its really high coverage and you can build it up without looking cakey, but becuase I've only used this on spots its taken me forever to even hit pan. Recently I've started to use this under my eyes which I never normally do with potted concealers, but I really like it. Now its hot out I'm using this even more, most days I don't even wear foundation and I just use this wherever I need a bit of coverage and its working really well. I've had this for honestly years, I don't think that Seventeen sell this anymore and I don't think its cruelty free so I really want to move this out of my collection ASAP.

4. Collection Contour Kit (Not Cruelty Free)
I was hoping to have a little
I have been trying so hard to keep using this bronzer because I'm so determined to finish it this year. I've managed to finish up the bottom right corner and most of the product at the bottom. I'm now working towards the left side and I'm hoping to have a little side pan by my next update. I know this one is going to take nearly all of the year to finish, but I really want to do it because I've never finished a bronzer before.

5. Avon Blusher (Not Cruelty Free)
A product I haven't made a lot of progress with is this blusher. Now its warmer I've been enjoying cream blush a lot more and I've also been skipping blush when I'm in a rush to instead use my bronzer. I've got to say that this is more of an Autumn/Winter shade for me so I don't expect to see massive progress again until after winter and if I do finish this it won't be until the end of the year.

6. Revolution The Emily Edit 'The Wants' Palette - Shade The Cream
I've been using this one every single day to set my lid and blend out my crease. My goal was just to hit pan on this, so I've already done that, but I'm going to continue to use this one until I've finished it completely. Considering how much progress I've already made I don't think it will take me long to finish this up.

7. Essence Lip Liner in Wish Me A Rose
I've actually made pretty good progress with this lip liner this time around. For a few weeks I used this as a blotted lip and I got through quite a bit of the pencil. Unfortunately I haven't used this very much since its got cold as I've been wearing more nudes and browns. I think I might give up on this one for this year as I think its more of a spring time shade

8. Revlon Lip Butter in Strawberry Shortcake (Not Cruelty Free)
I finally managed to flatten out this lipstick, but I was really determined to finish it up so I scooped out what was left and melted it into my old Vaseline tin... it wasn't my best idea. I've found it really difficult to get the product out of the tin so I've used it a lot less since I put it into the tin. There's probably only a couple of uses left so I'm calling this one done and moving onto something else.

8. Benefit Watt's Up Highlighter (Not Cruelty Free)
I didn't feel like having too many lip products in this project because I won't be able to finish them, so I thought I'd throw in a highlight. I use this almost every day for work anyway as its one of my most subtle highlights and this is only a travel size so I'm hoping that I can get through this fairly quickly.

9. Soap and Glory Sexy Mother Pucker Lip Gloss - Shade Nudestar (Not Cruelty Free)
The last product is my lipgloss. You really can't see much progress on this one again I would mark this but I like packaging too much to ruin it. There's not a lot left of this and I think again I could finish this if I focused on it for a couple of weeks, but I've been preferring a matte lip. I'm going to focus on using my lip butter before I really hone in on trying to finish this one.

Let me know if you're doing any projects this year, because I really love reading them!
