Summer Project Pan - Use Up 4 Makeup Products in the 4 Months of Summer!

Okay, I'm not a project panner at all; but, I've been following along with some and I love the idea of watching myself complete or use a product - it feels so satisfying! Plus, the Canadian Beauty Bloggers group chose Project Pan as the theme for June, so it seemed like the perfect time to try panning!

I didn't want to go too crazy for my first "Project Pan" as I also have a Monthly Makeup Basket and Palette of the Week that I utilize to use up products in my collection. So, I wanted to make sure that I focused on a few products in a set time period, thus my 4 in 4 was decided on! (I'm starting June 21, 2019 to September 22, 2019!)

I really wanted to focus on products that I like and enjoy using; but, also products that I've had in my collection for quite a while and are probably getting close to their use-by date!

These are both products that I've set goals of "hitting pan" on - a stretch goal for both would be to finish them up. But, I'm giving myself the option to roll something else in if I hit pan and don't want to continue try to use them up!

Too Faced Chocolate Soleil Matte Bronzer in Medium/Deep ~ travel size shown here ($40.00 CAN full size). A long-wearing, rich, matte bronzer infused with 100 percent real cocoa powder.

I've had this bronzer for years and it's basically been the only bronzer that I've used in my makeup looks over the years. It's a good bronzer and it's a good shade for me; but, it is getting old. You can see I've made a good dent overall and can see the edge of pan along the sides of this at the start - I think I will have no problem reaching my goal on this as I've been using this every day!

Essence Cosmetics Silky Touch Blush in #20 Babydoll ~ $2.99. Soft as silk! The Silky Touch Blush has an ultra silky texture that blends evenly and easily. Add a touch of natural freshness and radiance to your complexion.

Okay, you know a product is getting old when it was featured in your November 2016 Monthly Favourites, but the formula is still hanging in there and it's a really easy, light pink to wear. I've made a little dent on the sides at the start of this project; but, I would love to see how much I can use of this product!

Both of these products don't have any "pan" to hit on them, so my goal is to use them both up by the end of the project! If I happen to reach my goal before the end of the project then I can roll another product in to the project in it's place!

Estee Lauder The Smoother Universal Perfecting Primer ~ $44.00. Prep your skin for the ultimate makeup application. Infused with skin-softening apricot essence, this lightweight primer optically perfects skin, diffusing the look of pores and imperfections. Leaves skin with a smooth, even texture.

This is another product that I feel like I've loved forever - it made my Best of Beauty 2017, so it's been around for a couple of years now! I've been using it pretty regularly when I'm not trying something new; but, I will use this as my only primer for the next few months and think I will have no problem using it up!

Lancome Juicy Shaker Lip Gloss in Boom Meringue ~ $29.00 CAN. Shake It, Twist It, Love It. Colours that turn you on!

This is an older product too - I actually got this in a swap in 2016, so you can see I've only used a little bit during that time! It's getting more difficult to mix up and it looks like these have been discontinued too, so it's time to get moving on these! 

Have you ever tried to hit pan on a couple of products?! Why not try an easier 4 in 4 with me! I hope you're as interested in seeing my progress on these products as I am!
