Okay so it's more like Project 11 Pan or Project 8000 mini lipglosses, but whatever! Recently I've been experiencing another huge bout of beauty blogger guilt, where I look at the size of my collection and feel positively sick over the amount of makeup I own that's going to waste. Consequently, when RaeRae decided she was going to do a Project 10 Pan, I decided I had to join her. Almost all of my list consists of lip products, because they're the products I feel the worst about neglecting. I'm no genius on ingredients lists, preservatives and expiry dates, but I feel like the exposure to bacteria and air would have lipglosses expiring the soonest (aside from mascara). Lipglosses are also the only products I ever tend to use up, and if I were trying to finish blush or eyeshadow I'd either a) fall off the wagon very quickly, or b) be Project 10 Pan-ing until 2015 :|
Anyway, here are the list of products I've sworn to use up before purchasing makeup again!
Product 1: Napoleon Perdis Protege Gloss. I used to be in love with this sheer orange gloss, nearly finished it, then shoved it in a drawer never to be used again :|
Product 2: MAC Cremesheen Glass in Chillin'.
Product 3: Sportsgirl Give Some Lip Liquid Lip Colour in Candy Floss - I don't really like this colour on me, but I've somehow used most of it already.
Product 4: Random Pink Spell Cosmetics Lipgloss. I peeled the label off this ages ago and don't remember what it was called, but it was a major disappointment. This one and the orange shade next to it both looked red on my lips, and the thin greasy texture meant that they couldn't be layered because they dislodged the lipstick underneath. They feel really moisturising on the lips though, so I've been wearing them in lieu of lip balm when I'm bumming around the house.
Product 5: Random Orange Spell Cosmetics Lipgloss.
Product 6: Random Silver Spell Cosmetics Lipgloss. This one would be fantastic for layering if the texture were better, because the fine silver shimmer is gorrrrrgeous on the lips.
Products 7 & 8: These are a couple of crappy sheer glosses from Glamour Doll Eyes that I never liked, plus what I suspect might actually be a Fyrinnae Lip Lustre. The GDE glosses were basically clear on the lips and needed reapplication every 5 minutes, and I just didn't jive with the texture of the Lip Lustre. These are mini sized lipglosses, so I'm going to count each 2 as 1 finished product.
Products 9 & 10: Same deal here, but these are even smaller than my GDE glosses so I'm going to count the first 3 I finish as one product, and the remaining 4 as another. These are all glosses from Kiss My Sass Cosmetics, which smell delicious (cheesecake? NOM!) but weren't as opaque as I'd have liked.
Product 11: I really need to finish this bottle of MAC Fix+, because I also have a backup going to waste! I like spritzing it on my face before I apply my moisturiser at night, and have also been using it the past couple of days at work to refresh my skin. My foundation has apparently decided that it's going to half slide off my face before I get to work, but then look all cakey and flakey and dry throughout the work day. So gross >:(
Anybody else out there doing Project 10 Pan or got any tips for staying strong and not breaking the no-buy? I imagine it's going to be very slow, though I'll still enjoy a few new goodies that I ordered online before I started the 'Pan. :)
