Project Pan 2017 Update #5

Only updating on products that show enough progression***

 

I depot my makeup!

I scrap out the ILIA tinted moisturizer that is kinda very dry out to make a mixture I prefer more and I take out the Lily lolo eyeshadow putting into my magnetic palette. *this is a super satisfies act lol

Seriously you can see how dirty is the palette underneath....haha

My Skincare Inventory: What I can buy and what I shouldn't buy

Hey guys! I know I have bought a lot of skincare early in the year, so I thought it's best for me to make an inventory of the backup and craziness I did back then. Honestly, I really feel stupid when I saw how many bottle of moisturizer that cost 5$ I had! Good news is I will be saving a lot on moisturizer next year i guess ...* , *

My current routine #1:

Everyday Coconut Eyecream- The largest tube of eye cream I ever own, this could last me for two years I presume

Cougar beauty 24 carat day cream + moisturizer, almost done with these soon, possible in 2 months

Sunscreens that I own:

Alba Botanica Very emollient sunscreen sPF45- I find it too greasy and rubbing on face is not the best if, for base makeup usage, it might rub into balls, scent is not very pleasing in my taste, but not that bad either, anyways, I won't purchase their sunscreen again

 Bio-essence Bio Water Cooling sunscreen- bought this in taiwan watson, a lady recommend to me because she said that this would let my skin breath better and good as a makeup base! I really like the watery- based formula, it is being absorb into skin nicely and not sticky, highly recommend!

 Current skincare routine #2:
Essano Rosehip Micellar Water: Still one of my natural faves to remove light makeup
Linden Leaves Oil based makeup remover- Using this to remove waterproof mascara
Elianto Nutri Recipe Green Tea Purifying Toner- Bought it when I was back in Malaysia, so far I enjoy very much, not to mention it's fairly affordable! Paraben free as well :)
Endota Spa Organic Body Lotion- I know I have two or 3 body lotion that is somewhere else, but I believe I can finish this off earlier.

Current skincare routine #3

My 100% pure night cream- Finishing soon!

cougar skin oil- not really using this a lot, but am trying to

My only deodorant

and a hand cream

 And here comes the scariest part =v=........ I have 6 face moisturizer and a facial oil. I know I can finish at least 2 of the 30ml per cougar beauty moisturizer, but even if I could, I still have a lot to go for 2019 # w #..........oh well, as long they are unopen hopes that they can live longer

1. Other Miscellaneous: a manuka balm,
2. a face mask I don't even know I bought lol ( but I will have to finish my mud mask before I use this that's it.
3. a sample bronzing lotion that am not into it
4. an essence oil  
5. small hand n body lotion
6. a night skin cream
7. a lavender oil
8. laura geller face powder sample

================
SO!

I know have bought a caudalie micellar water as backup, and a toner because we know that we can go through that pretty face. Honestly tho literally I don't need anything! If I ran out of my eyecream, I know the natural brands available in new zealand has a lot to offer! I can go to warehouse and see what is on sale!

That's pretty much what I had in mind for now... good night for now, @_@ has been a long day working for about 9 hours...

Cheers!

What I brought: Black Friday 2017

CAUDALIE BEAUTY ELIXIR (100ML)£25.60

RRP: £32.00 

Save: £6.40 

http://go.magik.ly/ml/7xqs/

CAUDALIE MOISTURISING TONER (400ML)£19.00  http://go.magik.ly/ml/7xqv/

CAUDALIE MICELLAR CLEANSING WATER (400ML) Http://go.magik.ly/ml/7xqt/

There is a cyber sale going on so I got 20% off on the toner and cleansing water, making them 15.20pound.

Initially, I want to buy a lot of stuff but in the end, d I manage to pull myself off! XP

I show my friend how much I bought and he said when he saw the elixir price " 2ml for 50cent" am literally speechless X"D

I feel like I need to make an inventory of my skincare too, and a list of stuff that I definitely don't need a backup of! Especially I'm too keen on trying different skincare every time when I saw a sale I always wanted to try different toners, cleansers etc

Eyelook #2 Semi-smokey Metallic Blue with blue shimmer

Trying out some false lashes I got from Aliexpress recently, and mini reviewing them.

Which one did I buy:

http://go.magik.ly/ml/7qff/

Also trying out zoeva metals palette, putting some dark brown to make the dark nay blue balance. 

I only put half of the lashes on each side of my eyes, They are very natural looking, but I don't recommend curling them too hard with your lashes, they can over bend. Better curl ur lashes first then put on the falsie and blend in with mascara

The blue shimmer is gorgeous, tho it might be hard to wear for everyday occasion.

Eyelook #1 Subtle Blue

Hi all~ first time uploading my makeup, I was trying out a Frankenstein-shadow, mixed with blue and pale white shade that has almost no pigmentation. My camera seems like pretty hard to capture the color. @ v @ The photos were taken under natural light, it seems to be over exposure lol. Anyhow I do enjoy taking photos like these, because they are very hard to capture, like honestly.

Swatching me eyeshadows

Am thinking to declutter a few of my single eyeshadows.... so I made some swatches comparing with some from palettes

Wonderland (cougar beauty)- Irridescent shimmer of purple, gold, white and silverrrrr
starfish (100% pure)- warmer brown-purple
precious (cougar beauty)-cool medium brown purple with small flecks of purple shimmer
Rusty steel (zoeva)-warm yellow ochre brown with gold shimmer
Alloy (zoeva)- Not very pigmented meh....
Mermaid (cougar beauty)-bronze with bronze shimmer

Honestly all these shades are unique, but I don't have the time to go through them given i have so many palettes now! Am keeping Wonderland for its sparkling shimmer. Precious is nice too, but i don't need so many purple brown.

Treasure (cougar beauty)- Matt cool brown
envy (cougar beauty)-Matt Moss green, slightly on the yellow side. I don't have any shade like  this in my collection. I'm planning to sell this out, if can't, I will just let it stay it till someone wants it.
Forest Green (inika) - not a lot of base color, but it has a lot of shimmer gold and in green, making it look kinda green
inika bronzer  sunlight- it actually looks too orange for my Asian skin. It doesn't look best on my face, but amazing on my eyes, so it will be either sell it or keep it :
Alima pure Espresso- Matt Cool Dark brown, one of my very first eyeshadow... still remember it was so expensive but still i bought it... haven't use it a bunch, but am keeping this for sure.

Makeup Collection/ Inventory--November 2017

Face Primer
Jan 1 Nov 2
I finished off the 100% Pure Primer, now currently working on the Pacifica's. Bought one Primavista when I was in Taiwan. It's not a necessary backup, but the brand can only be found in Japan and Taiwan, so I literally must get it!!
I use primer as a mixing medium to adjust my base, so I don't think I have a problem to finish them up asap, given that they don't come in a lot of product too.

Base Product
Jan 2 Nov 2
I finished the PF BB Cream, now working on the ILIA Moisturizer, I don't really like how it blends, it shows my dry patches if I apply too much. So I mix my own Frankendation ( the small jar), mixing in face primer, moisturizer, face oil , my lily lolo concealer, and sunscreen. XDDD-------- Feeling scientific. I just have to admit that experimenting with makeup is so fun.

Concealer

Jan 1     Nov 2 

Finally I got a concealer palette and I love it! Tho it needs to be set with powder otherwise it will crease.

The Line on the LL is just to mark how much i've use btw lol.

It's so adorable! It's Yooncharmi collab with A'pieu, it was on sale in Taiwan Watson

 Eyeshadow palettesssssssssssss
Jan 3   Nov 13
This category exploded like no others..... and am not guilty.....................HAHA..............I believe this category shall continue to grow unless I can move out my lily lolo palette by next year.

A small rant here---- I followed Lily lolo's instagram and they have released a lot of new palettes, but their makeup line is more on the "daily gorgeous and wonderful" concept(( just a personal thought)) They have a photo that list out a bunch of their released palettes, and I found that none of them attract me. Really tho, I'm so bound to sparkling colourful colors lately, vibrancy as such; making me want to purchase more korean, japanese makeup, since they are designed for Asian skin tones.

 3 small palettes

 ( I took the other canmake from my sis after I sold mine lol, since she's not really using )

 6 zoeva palettes + 1 100%pure + 1 LL (forgot to include in the photo lol)

1 .//Etude + pur 

 Face Palette 
Jan 0 Nov 2
I got the PUR and NARS Palette. I do regret slightly on the PUR ones... cuz I bought it cuz it was on super clearance price and my curiosity of wanting to try PUR products... but the blush inside the palette I don't own anything similar, so I guess I will give myself a pass B:

Highlighters

Jan 1 Nov 3

I do have other highlighters that come in the palette, but I don't really use them for highlighting at the moment, so I don't want to count them in this category.

Bronzer
Jan 2 Nov 3
Add on one from the face palette, currently focusing on finish up the Physician Formula Bronzer

Eyeshadow Single
Jan 8 Nov 14
this category grew like crazy due to my uncontrolled curiosity...orz, I will say I do regret at this point by saying that I bought the cougar eyeshadows online, IF I see them in stores I think I won't purchase them at all! Nevertheless, they are still beautiful shadow... and I kinda believe that loose shadows can store for years as long it's kept dry, so... yea orz. I do sometimes press them into my empty palette, but only tiny amount. : |
 But I don't regret getting the Inika shadows, they ARE gorgeous, tho I have not use em enough.


Mascara
Jan     1
Nov    3 + 1  Fibre Mascara
I finish up the Saem mascara, brought two and receive the Heroine mascara from my colleague. Usually, I will say one mascara would be ideal unless they do smudge on my undereye, I will go out and hunt for a second. So far the Heroine ones work well for lower lash, but if  I'm exercising it will smudge. But I don't see why I have to put makeup if I'm going to exercise LOL

Face Power
Jan 3 Nov 3
Still same amount   :O    ***surprisingly ** But I did finish up the Youngblood powder and I just haul in an Innisfree powder. Currently focusing on the EGLIPS powder


Lip Product
Jan    5_lipstick + 1_gloss   
Nov  5_lipstick + 1_gloss +4_ lip tint

I said I wasn't going to buy any more lip product but I failed =v=... haha I couldn't resist buying those tints 4 for 10nzd XOO Anyway it's not like I did not use my lip products at all, hopefully I can finish up the Karen Murrell lipstick by end of next year, tho it hasn't had a lot left. Moreover, am also focusing on the lip gloss, merely because it's a liquid form I think? I saw videos from project panners in youtube about makeup batch date and I check up this benefit lip gloss, it's produced in 2015. Literally not too bad, but since it's easier to apply without using a mirror and it's very moisturizing, I have faith that I can finish it up before the end of 2018.

There are 2 goals set <3 <3

Blush
Jan   4
Nov 4 single + 6 in palette [ one in 100%P, 2 in PUR, 3 in NARS ]

Literally, this category exploded since I got a few blushes in palettes, anyhow my canmake gel blush was finished, so I don't feel bad about my blush collection. I'm just a sucker for them QwQ


Eye primer
Jan 2 Nov 2
Still the same two product... the ELF ones do starts to dry out slowly, it's only 3USD and I use for 2 years, honestly, I can toss this out already, but I'm kinda clingy to things unless they are not functional. I put drops of Inglot duraline whenever I think it's not so creamy to make it work. But now I do focus on the tony moly one since I haven't really used it that much.

Eyebrow Product
Jan     1 eyebrow pencil
Nov   2 eyebrow pencil + 1 brow gel + 1 brow pomade

The brow pomade is just literally a dry up gel eyeliner that I mix up with duraline (again) to make it useable. The second eyebrow pencil is just an eyeliner that is too dry and tugging to use on the eyelid, so why not use as an eyebrow pencil! :D

Here's a small record of this pencil now. Not trying to pan it, but will use it as things go.

My plan: Finish off one eyebrow pencil

My routine for my brows are using the pomade and then blend out with a brown eyeshadow (currently using the Lily Lolo ones) So they go on pretty slow. For the pomade, I know I shouldn't keep for this long, however since I'm not using directly on the eyes, I'll just continue using it till it gave me problems.

Others: An Inglot Duraline and Inika Liquid Highlighter, for me these are mixing mediums, I have not really used them by themselves. But I'm hoping to finish off the Inika Highlighter by next year end. The lines are purely for marking my usage till now.

Conclusion from my inventory update

• am addicted to eyeshadows and blushesssssssssssssssss

• I'm addictive to try new lip products and color, I will need control in this section too XOOO

• Things that are under control!!
• -----Primers, Base product, eyebrow stuff, mascara and bronzer
