Hey everyone,
I don't know why but I was really reluctant to write this post today. I've found myself enjoying YouTube a lot more than normal and considering doing my project pans on there. However today's post is the 2 week update of my 24by4thJuly. As this is a longer post, I won't be writing much under each photo. There are 22 to update!
Dior lipstick in 006 Nude Fever
Stila eyeliner in Lionfish
BareMinerals Marvelous Moxie Lipgloss I've been trying to apply this every time I come into my room, hence the progress. I don't think this will be in the project long. Unfortunatly I can't take this to work as it leaks everywhere.
Juicy Couture mini perfume Again another product I try to apply every time I'm in my room. Shouldn't be too long with this in the project.
Barry M nail polish in Meadow I managed to apply this polish twice in two weeks. I find that I get bored of a colour quickly so I don't reapply straight away.
Nars mini blush in orgasm (hit pan) I've been swapping these last two weeks between this blush and another in this project and so far the top of the blush is beginning to loose it's texture.
Nivea Gentle Cleansing Cream Wash This product has gone down so much as I use it every morning as my face wash and sometimes in the evening if I feel greasy. I love how soft and gentle this product is.
Tanya Burr "moonlight" eyeshadow I knew I liked this shadow but I wasn't sure how much! Already in the past two weeks I've worn this pretty much everyday to work and that much of a dent is already there. I'm not sure how deep these pans are so I maybe here a while. Also took a larger photo as I wanted to show I'm now using "starey sky" in my crease.
Nars mini lip pencil in Rekugian This pencil goes really fast! I've already had to sharpen it twice and I've only worn it two days in the row weeks. I think if I focus on it, this will be gone early on.
I'll be honest, I haven't used this much but I will start to use it to set my eyeliner.
Again a lot of product has been used as I use this everyday to take my makeup off after work. I need to repurchase this again soon.
I've managed to use this shadow on top of my base in the project to make a light colour for work which will be used a lot. As you can see from the photo, the top layer has already been disturbed.
Too Faced Born This Way Foundation I've found that wearing this foundation to work (normally an 6-8 hour shift), that on my oily skin, it's gone in certain patches on my skin by the end of the day. I will work through this bottle but will not be repurchasing again.
Revlon Nearly Naked Foundation Powder As you can see, I've been using this almost everyday and it's especially good on it's own for days when I don't wear the too faced foundation. This will be gone soon into the project.
Deep Steep Candy Apple Shower gel I have managed to use this quite a bit since the intro and have found that although I dislike it, I think that is only because I can not smell a scent when in the shower! I know that MegsMakeup8 has this problem with shower gels too so I don't feel so weird now.
Maybelline Colour Tattoo in On and On Bronze The dip already created in this product I think is purely because I apply it with a brush rather than my fingers. This is an excellent base for my eyeshadows in this project and doesn't budge all day.
I'll be totally honest, I haven't used this at all. I really don't enjoy lip liners at the moment.
Revlon "Pink Afterglow" lipgloss I realised just after last update that this product did actually have a dent in it and that is where the line is now. I haven't used it since.
Seen as I've been using this in conjunction with my Nars blush you won't see much progress quite yet. I also think the mac blushes are pressed in quite heavily.
Revlon Juicy Papaya lipstick This is another product I've been trying to put on during my time in my room as it's such a bright colour I really don't think I can wear this out until the end of April, beginning of June!
The Balm balm desert Bronzer Sample This product is going to take me forever to use up! But I'm not sad about that as I love the colour of this bronzer on my skin tone. Since taking these photographs, I have since worn down the bottom side as well.
The Body Shop Body Butter in Fijian Water I will be totally honest, this product will probably be gone by the next update. I love the body shop body butters and manage to use at least 2 a month. Expect to see another gone by the end of the project at least.
L'oreal Infallable Primer Typical that when I take this photo, no progress is shown but a couple of days later, it's gone down by a lot! However the product is sticking up to the side where I mark it which is really annoying. I'm finding that with this primer I can only use it on my oily areas as foundation doesn't sit well on the other areas if this is used.
This is a beautiful eyeliner which glides on well and sits well in my waterline. Now that my Stila one is gone, full focus is on this one and it need sharpening about every 3 uses.
Technic Lipstick in Indian Red This is another product I can now use, now that my Dior lipstick has gone. However I have found that this is a lot darker than the Dior and harder to wear to work.
As I have used one of these up pretty quickly in the past, I thought this one would be the same. However it isn't. That is purely because this one you don't need all over the face where as the other you did. I use the shimmery pink shade in my inner corner of my eye and the others I use all over the cheek bones and even on my collar bones.
Marc Jacobs Daisy Perfume, Batiste Dry Shampoo, Nip + Fab dark circle fix and Maybelline Master Precise These 4 products I have no way of showing you the progress (except Marc Jacobs as I don't want to ruin the bottle) but rest assured I have used all of these at least once in the last two weeks.
As you can see, I need to really work on some of these product but some will be done pretty quickly with some good use. Hopefully less photos and better explanations next update!
