#12emptiesofchristmas- Finale!

Hey everyone! 
As you may have guessed by the title and If you've seen on my Instagram, it's already time for my #12emptiesofchristmad finale! I managed to finish my Maybelline colour tattoo this morning and I have to tell you it is the best feeling ever.
This beauty took 4 months of everyday use to complete and I know I had a few more months to finish this but after a while I found it was just going anyway. I just want to say thank you to Jencoempties from Instagram for such an awesome project and I'm glad I managed to finish it! 

Just two more projects left including my #13byHalloween and Project10pan and I'm making some huge progress with them too!

#12emptiesofChristmas Update

Hey everyone, 
It's that time of the month again and I'm proud to say that I only have one product left in this project! So far I have used up:
Soap & Glory Righteous Body Butter
Superdrug Vitamin E Hot Cloth Cleanser
Kueshi Face Toner
NaoBay Face Scrub
Origins Out Of Trouble Face Mask
Morgan Shower Gel
Nivea Night Cream
Bourjois ColourBoost Lipstick (thrown away)
Seventeen StayTime Primer
Benefit Highbeam Sample
Ted Baker Bath Foam

Which means I only have my Maybelline Colour Tattoo left! I'll be honest, I knew this would be my last product left in this but I did not think by August all my other products would be gone. Which is why I started my project 10 pan last week (if you have not read that post yet, you should). On to the photos!
As you can see I have used ALOT more since the last update. Last time you only saw pan, now I have half the product gone! I use this product everyday as an eye base which I then set with a product which is in my project 10 pan. I'm hoping to have this product done within the next two months at least with continuous use as I also have a back up version of this in a stick form. However I will probably leave this colour alone for a while after this is finished. 

Fingers crossed to more progress next month!

#12emptiesofChristmas update

Hey everyone, 
I'm right on cue today with this update and I can tell you now, hopefully it won't take me until Christmas to finish what I have left. So far for me- 10 down and 2 to go.
Maybelline Colour Tattoo in Pink Gold
Im so proud of my progress in this! I've never hit pan on a Colour Tattoo before so you can imagine the excitement when I did! So far I've been using this in conjunction with my pan that palette which is going well. 
Benefit Highbeam Sample
This little baby will not die! However I have just had to take the stopper out, so hopefully my progress will continue. I have noticed though that the brush does not hit the bottom of the tube, so it may have to go if I can't get anymore out.

I hope you enjoyed my update, hopefully more items will be gone by next time!

#12EmptiesofChristmas- Update 1

Hey everyone! 
A month ago I started a project in which I had to choose 12 items I rarely use and empty them by Christmas. Well I didn't think I would be as far as I am today. As of this moment I have finished up 7 items of the 12. Here is my current progress on the others.
Origins Out of Trouble Face Mask- Started Full
When starting this project, I thought this product won't be used a lot and may still be here come November. However since I've come out with a lot of summer breakouts (due to heavy foundations!) I've been using this once, maybe twice, a week. With progress keeping the way it is, this maybe gone by my next update.
Nivea Night Cream- Started almost Full
Now I actually haven't been forcing myself to use this. If anything I have used it every other night because of a serum I'm trying. However I've still almost finished it! I do love this but I find it takes FOREVER to sink in. I'm just too impatient. 
Bourjois Colourboost Lipstick- Started Full
Yes I've barely worn this. No I do not like it. I'm going to have to stash this in my bag on holiday this next week and force myself to use it if I want to see any progress by Christmas. It is however a summer colour and can only really be worn until September. 
Maybelline Colour Tattoo in 65 Pink Gold- Started Full
This one may look a little different to you. I swapped out my Gold colour for this Rose gold pink as I've finding this one goes with the pink and purple tones I'm panning at the moment, however It will also go with the copper colours I plan to wear in the winter months. I started this colour tattoo one week after the intro and it started full. Everyday use is applied here. 
Benefit Highbeam Sample- Started half full
I'm surprised at how much progress I've made with this. In every look I make I use this as my highlight across the top of my cheeks and down the bridge of my nose and I've made some good work here. As soon as I took the photo it decided to fall over hence why the product is above the line. 

By this update I finished:
Soap & Glory Righteous Body Butter
Superdrug Vitamin E Hot Cloth Cleanser
Kueshi Face Toner
Naobay Face scrub
Morgan Sweetpea Shower Gel
Seventeen StayTime Primer

Here's to more good progress for this next month and more progress on my makeup items! I won't be finishing this project at Christmas!
