Update on Project Pan

Jergens Crema, Coconut Revolution Body Lotion and Hand Cream, Target Eye Makeup Remover, NYX Butter Gloss, Essence Eyeliner Pen
Just a quick post today: I wanted to do an update on how I'm going on my Finish 15 by Halloween project. I tried gathering all of my empties to take a photo with but I actually forgot some and accidentally dumped one of the empty packages, so I'll just write down a full list below.

Done:
  1. Jergens Body Creme
  2. Target Eye Makeup Remover Wipes
  3. Essence Eyeliner Pen (will repurchase)
  4. Coconut Revolution samples x2
  5. Chi Chi Watermelon Perfume (not pictured)
  6. Target Makeup Remover Wipes (not pictured)
  7. Essence Mascara (not pictured)
That's 7/15 products completed, with only 8 more to go! I'm also very close to finishing:
  1. NYX Buttergloss - I'm realising now it's a horrible colour on me, and it's quite sticky which isn't pleasant when you've got a lot of thick long hair around your face, so I'm going to just give it till end of October and then I'm tossing it. I don't think there's much left in there anyway
  2. Invisible Zinc Sunscreen - I want to finish this before summer hits full force so I can get a new sunscreen
  3. Burts Bees Beeswax Lipbalm - After trying the honey flavour in the same line and also the KORA lipbalm, I've realised that this is actually quite dry, and doesn't moisturise my lips as well, so I'm really eager to finish this too
  4. Goats Milk Soap in Honey 
So hopefully by the next update (around the start of October) I would have finished the above products and maybe some extra ones too. 

If you're doing any project pans, feel free to link them for me to check out below in the comments.

Decluttering old makeup


To be honest I haven’t thrown away everything in this photo…
Gone are:
  • Revlon Colorstay that’s all separated and gross, thank goodness it was gifted otherwise I’d feel pretty bad because this foundation is pretty pricey in Australia
  • Maybelline Age Rewind that I used to mix in with BB creams that were always ridiculously pale but to be honest I hate mixing foundations
  • Daiso charcoal mask that I used ONCE, and hated. I got this because there was so much hype about it, but I just found it overly drying and a sticky mess
  • Physicians Formula gel eyeliner in Brown, which I loved at one point as an eyeliner and to fill in my brows because it was water resistant, but it’s all dried up now
Some things I’m having a hard time getting rid of because I feel like I can still use are:
  • Lilan Vital cream to powder foundation, that I’ve actually hit pan on. It’s very pale on me but I don’t mind using it as a concealer under a product that suits my skin, only I don’t reach for it as much as I’d like. I might try to use it all up as part of my project pan which is why I’m tempted to keep it.
  • Revlon blush that’s a beautiful colour, only I don’t like using talcs on my skin BUT I’ve already made a dent in it and I feel obliged to use it up and I literally have one other blush so I feel like I should keep this??? Still need to think about this a little more, I reckon.
  • Maybelline eyeshadow quad that I’ve used quite a few times but it’s not a favourite or a staple and doesn’t seem to earn its keep on my counter. Another candidate for project pan, and it does have some nice colours I could use for special occasions and the like.
