4x4- Update 2

Hey everyone! 
I'm coming a little early this month with the #pan4x4 update as I'm working a lot this week. However you will notice a load of difference in my products this month! I actually managed to finish up 2 products and hit 2 goals in my pallet! I won't keep you waiting, here are the items left. 
I managed to use up my Magic Lumi Primer and finally used up my Barry M eye and lip pencil in 1. That was a monumental day for me. The Barry M pencil had been going strong for 4 months, but when I went to go use it 2 weeks into May, the crayon fell out. All gone! 
As you can probably tell a lot went on with this pallet this month! I managed to hit pan on the two shades I use the most in my everyday look. I now can't decide which colour I want my last one to hit pan on should be especially seen as we are going into summer. I think I will continue to use the lightest shade with the grey in my crease. If I can't finish my goals by 4th July at least I've made a major dent in this pallet which never got love from me. 
Oh Rimmel lipstick how you seem to annoy me so much now. I'm getting more and more progress with this lipstick but now we're getting into summer I can't see myself wearing this neutral shade. It's better for winter months. I think with this product if It hasn't gone by 4th July, I shall be chucking it as it's rather old. 

Hopefully I will have made more progress by the finale as I'm pretty happy with how much I have made so far! Hitting pan on those shadows made me rather happy. I've been going through my collection a little more recently and have decided I may have enough destashed to do a blog sale. It maybe up soon!

4x4- Update 1

Hey everyone, 
I hope everyone's projects are going well! Today you will be seeing two posts from myself including 4x4  update and intro to #12emptiesbychristmas. For now we'll start with finish 4x4, this was started by Amber F on YouTube and the idea is to finish 4 makeup items by 4th July (which is the day after my birthday). I think I stated in the intro that if I do finish or hit pan by 4th, that I can buy myself one high end makeup item as a birthday treat. 
On to my progress! 
L'oreal Lumi Magique Base Primer- almost done
I didn't expect this item to be almost finished however I do use it everyday in my morning routine. I don't normally like moisturiser type primers, I tend to gravitate towards silicone ones. However I am enjoying how easily this drys and soaks into the skin compared to my Baby Skin Primer. Hopefully by next month this will be done. 
Barry M Eye and Lip Crayon in 1- only the "Barry" left. 
This crayon is taking forever! I started panning this particular product way back in February on my second monthly project pan. Hopefully this will be done by next month as you can only sharpen down to the M. I do like the base effect is gives my eyeshadows, however will not repurchase. 
Nyx 5 Colour Shadows (Hit pan on 3)- no-where near. 
This baby is going to take me forever. I use these shadows on a daily basis, however the pink needs more love. You can't tell from the picture but there is a significant dip in the far left and middle pink. Eyeshadows have always been a problem for me in project pans, I don't know why I keep forcing myself to pan them. 
Rimmel Kate Lipstick in 08- less than 1cm of product left. 
I'm sure your all sick of seeing this product in my project pans now, as I am of using it. This was my favourite lipstick during winter and I thought it would be out of my collection by now, but no it's been going strong since February too! If I keep re-applying I may get there before 4th July, however in my second project starting later, I also have another lip product. They may clash or I may alternate which week I use which one.

Thank you for reading everyone! Pop back later for my next project intro!
