Project 10 Pan- update 4

Hey everyone! 
I'm actually a day late with this update! I really don't know where the time is going this year. So far with this project 10 pan, I've managed to use up 6 items. I've now only got about 2 months (so a few more updates) until it's over so I need to get a move on with the last 5 items really. 
I've used up:
Maybelline Baby Skin Primer
Revlon Nearly Naked Powder
Makeup Revolution Vivd Highlighter (hit pan) 
No7 Eyeshadow (hit pan) 
Revlon Lip Butter in Strawberry Shortcake 
Covergirl Lash blast Mascara 
YSL Tint-in-oil lipgloss
I say this every update but my main goal on this item was not to use it up but to get more use out of the product. That I believe I have done. Ever so often I would find myself reaching for this product before work if I was feeling lazy. I've also noticed that because the product is an oil, it dried quickly on my lips. This in turn meant I had to reapply quite a lot! Maybe the product will be used up after all? 
Revlon Balm Stain in Honey 
Since the last update, I've used this product everyday. However as you can see, there is barely any progress! On my paperwork in my little notebook, the lines show I made half a cm of progress which I guess is better than none. I do believe if I want this product gone by Janurary 5th, I'm going to have to wear it every other week. 
Marsk Loose Eyeshadow 
I've actually loved seeing this product go down on the sides. I use this loose dust to set my eyeliner (coming next) and every time I dip my brush into the product it does go down. I don't know whether this has anything to do with the fact it picks up too much product but I don't mind. After this project, this eyeshadow will be going as it was only free anyway. 
Isa Dora Kajal in Icy Blue
Ever since my Stila eyeliner finished in my #9bynewyears, I've been focusing my eyeliner on this product everyday. With the cooler months and glitter eyeshadow this eyeliner matches perfectly. This is the eyeliner I set with my Marsk eyeshadow above. So far in the 2 weeks that have passed I've made a whopping 1cm in progress but I do believe it is because the eyeliner itself is very creamy. 
Maybelline Galactic Mauve Lipstick
I really haven't been using this product. I think I've managed to use it once whilst at work but I did notice it made my lips very dry. I'm going to try using it every other week in turn with the Revlon Balm Stain to try make some progress before January. 

As you can see I have a lot of progress to make but really am not enjoying the slow progress I'm making. Hopefully before the end of the year something else will be nearly done.

#9byNewYears- Update 2

Hey everyone! 
It's that time again for my #9bynewyears update and although I finished a few items, I've actually added items in too so there are quite a few items left in this project. 
I have finished:
Bourjois Healthy Mix Foundation
MonuSpa Reviving Mist
Sally Hansen Lip Gloss
Babylips in Melon Mania 
Rimmel Moisture Renew Lipliner
Foxy from Naked Basics Palette (hit pan) 
Sexy Mother Pucker Gloss Stick in Nudest
Foxy from Naked Basics (finished) 
Stila Smudge Stick eyeliner in Black Amythest
I have no way of showing you how much I have used but everyday since starting this project I have been using this eyeliner to put in my water line. I've decided that as of tomorrow I'm going tight line too. I'm going to use this eyeliner up before using the blue eyeliner I have in another project. 
Colour Couture Eye Shadow Dust in White
If you look into the side of this pot you can see the tiny amount of progress I've made! I have been wearing this over my base in this project for work which tones down the shine a lot. I will continue to use this shadow dust however I don't think it will be finished before new year. 
Rimmel Scandleyes in 011 Bluffing
Some slight progress on this tiny eyeshadow base. On my paper I have made at least 1cm of progress and I have found that I don't need to sharpen this product too much between each use. I have 2 months to use this product up before the end of the project and with consistant use, I believe I can use it. 
Isa Dora Lipliner in Vintage Pink 
I decided to add this product into the project as I now use a Lipliner almost everyday and considering I have a few pink lip products in projects at the moment, I thought this would be a good choice. I added it in 13/10/15 and by today I have used up 2.5cm of product! I have to sharpen it every two uses so that is where the product is going mostly. 
Hit pan in Naked 2 on Naked Basics Palette
Another new goal I decided to add in as I've been using Naked 2 in my crease everyday recently. As you can see from the photo, I've managed to create a good dip in the product however I do think hitting pan is quite a while away. Some more use everyday is needed here. 
Maybelline Babylips in Hydrate
A replacement product was needed in place of my other Babylips as I've been enjoying using a moisturising lip balm every evening. I don't find these lip balms very moisturising however because I do have to reapply these during the day, I don't mind using them in projects. I won't be buying anymore once I have finished my last Babylips up. 

I believe I will be able to finished quite a few products up in this project and although I only need one more item finished, I will carry on until the end of the project and see how many items I can finish during this time. Anymore out of my collection is a great thing!
