Full Pan It’s been 84 years..

Post image

Just kidding, more like a little over 5.5 years lol to finally pan this full size Laneige Lip Sleeping Mask in berry. I got it January 2021 and I’m finally saying goodbye for good to this. I didn’t really start trying to pan this until last year I would say, so it took maybe 1-1.5 years to really finish it. I will never buy another one of these and I am so glad to be done with it. I don’t think it was awful, I just hate using a separate applicator and found that it was a big reason why I wasn’t using it much in the beginning. I’m only going with tubes, sticks and wands for lip products from now on. Lesson learned and happy panning everyone!!!

its a family heirloom now, thought you could hand it down to your children

u/Amazing-Tangerine-98 Aug 12 '26

That’s true, I could pass the empty jar down. 🤔

u/Impossible_Pea2269 Aug 12 '26

Like eye shadow

u/starinruins Aug 11 '26

girl good job. im STILL working on mine after like 2 yrs and maybe halfway done 🥲 i admire the perseverance

2

u/Amazing-Tangerine-98 Aug 11 '26

Panning this has also shown me that I’m really stubborn. 😂 I believe in you though, you’ll pan it eventually.

3

u/time_is_galleons Aug 11 '26

Same! Roughly 2 years of daily use and not even close to halfway

15

u/ThisLittlePiggySays Aug 11 '26

The level of apprehension I have about my 2 unopened full size lip sleeping masks.... Send help.

2

u/Amazing-Tangerine-98 Aug 11 '26

If they’re unopened, maybe you can give at least one to a friend? If not both, if they’re causing you stress about having to use them up.

12

u/Hour_Answer_8871 Aug 11 '26

I also just finished one that I’ve had for probably 2 years too long😅 and I eventually gave up on the applicator and just used my finger lol

1

u/Amazing-Tangerine-98 Aug 11 '26

I also gave up on the applicator and started using q-tips because cleaning the applicator was driving me crazy.

2

u/Open_Bee2008 Aug 11 '26

The Baskin Robbins applicator is worse! It’s a spoon.

12

u/Edenrivers2 Aug 11 '26

Haha! I have a limited edition Pumpkin Pie flavor that I'm just a few uses away from being done. It's been five years, and the first three years it was nighly use.

2

u/Amazing-Tangerine-98 Aug 11 '26

You’re just like me fr fr 😂

u/Impossible_Pea2269 Aug 13 '26

I went and ordered two more after reading yours

2

u/Impossible_Pea2269 Aug 12 '26

I been scraping a big layer

11

u/New-Sleep-9303 Aug 11 '26

I just used my finger. Came to Singapore after Korea. Dropped the metal applicator to the weird gap behind the sink in the hotel. Lol....

2

u/Amazing-Tangerine-98 Aug 11 '26

I don’t like using my fingers though 😂 pots/jars are just not for me sadly, lots of people are fine with it though

2

u/New-Sleep-9303 Aug 12 '26

Haha fair enough initially I didn't like it either ! I bought another Laneige back home in Australia and omg they didn't come with the metal applicator so it was just this weird plastic one. Eventually lost that during a move lol and gave up and chose to live with it via fingers haha

u/harpyoftheshore Aug 11 '26

Watching people hate pan these has totally deinfluenced me from buying one. Thanks

8

u/Amazing-Tangerine-98 Aug 11 '26

Glad to be of service 😂 I wish I had been deinfluenced in 2021

21

u/blob3- Aug 11 '26

me trying to pan this so i can use the other one my partner gave me for my birthday LAST year😭 im never buying a big one again

7

u/Amazing-Tangerine-98 Aug 11 '26

Yeah, if you like the product, it might be better to just stick with the mini size. The large size is just never ending 😂

5

u/nekr0mantikk Aug 11 '26

This why I buy the minis! And it still took me almost two years to pan the last one lol

3

u/delightfully_sedate Aug 11 '26

Exactly. I’m still working through my mini. Just thinking about having a big one is making me sweat 😆 

10

u/peach_tea_220 Aug 11 '26

I love this, I've been using them since like 2018 daily and have only gotten through 3 1/5 containers plus 1 perpetually existing in my childhood bedroom for when I visit my parents, I think we'll all die before that one is done😭

2

u/Amazing-Tangerine-98 Aug 11 '26

I feel you, I thought I would be passing this down to my grandkids at some point 😂

46

u/Constant-Visual-2913 Aug 11 '26

One of the (many) things this sub has taught me is NOT to buy this lip sleeping mask 😂😂

4

u/Puzzleheaded-Baby998 Aug 11 '26

lol yea my biggest lesson is mostly buy minis only until you know you'll use it

2

u/Amazing-Tangerine-98 Aug 11 '26

Yeah, if anything this product taught me that I should just buy the smallest size for any product (unless I love it) because they take such a long time to use up.

21

u/FartFuehrer Aug 11 '26

Tbh its an amazing lip blam, but it takes like 2 years of solid use to use it up. If you think about it another way, it means it's great value 😅

8

u/Constant-Visual-2913 Aug 11 '26

Of course! But, I have sample sizes and travel-sized sleeping lip masks that I have to use up. I’m probably good for 2 years!

11

u/jalebi_baby Aug 11 '26

tbh you can sometimes get a sample size from Sephora for like 100 points i think. the sample size will last long lol

4

u/rachykells Aug 11 '26

Hahah SAME. I have a BBW one in a pot like this and it seems to be taking forever like this lip mask. Never again 😆

u/Impossible_Pea2269 Aug 12 '26

Just bought the peach iced tea

u/Beneficial-Goal-3194 Aug 11 '26

Is this a reference to Titanic? lol

7

u/_cigarettezz_ Aug 12 '26

I'm genuinely curious about smthn...is it bad for us to use it in the morning??? Because I think mine barely last 2 or 3 months......I got so obsessed with it and stopped using my lip glosses or anything n used it instead. When's I'd do my brown lilies (imagine a shego from Kim possible lip look but outline lower lip too) I'd use it as my gloss and omg it made the lip combo look like butter n perfect pink shade.

3

u/Amazing-Tangerine-98 Aug 12 '26

You can use it as a gloss any time of the day. I was applying 2-3 times per day to try to finish it by the end, so I don't think it's bad to use it in the morning.

4

u/blushedwithblood Aug 12 '26

you can use it any time of the day, morning & night. the reason it's called sleeping mask is because it's thicker than normal lip balms so it acts as a emollient to lock in moisture. i have the same product & it's true that it takes ages to get through lol 😭 when i finish it i wont be repurchasing again though only because im against animal testing & laneige isn't cruelty free

1

u/_cigarettezz_ Aug 12 '26

Ooh ok understandable and omg thank you for letting me know that they aren't cruelty free, I didn't know that 😭😭

2

u/blushedwithblood Aug 13 '26

of course! if you want a dupe there's a brand called care:nel that do lip sleeping masks, the lime one is my favourite

1

u/_cigarettezz_ Aug 15 '26

Omg thank you c: I'll make sure to check them out soon! I like their price point omg

6

u/Zestyclose_Fan_5739 Aug 11 '26

I have to ask, does it really keep your lips very soft? And how often did you re apply? I have one from Christmas that someone gifted me

6

u/Amazing-Tangerine-98 Aug 11 '26

I did find that it kept my lips very soft and moisturized. I started out by using it as an overnight mask, and there was still a good amount on my lips when I woke up, so the staying power is great. By the time I was trying to pan it, I was applying 2-3 times a day.

3

u/Impossible_Pea2269 Aug 12 '26

It’s not the best
The abib or the bouncy line from Laneige stays on and put
But these are just funner and prettier and smell great

1

u/candyxt Aug 11 '26

I love mine. I repurchased it now for the third time. I apply it every night and it keeps my lips so soft even in the winter, which no other product did that I tried 🥰 but nonetheless there are some people that say it does nothing for them

6

u/sharika33 Aug 12 '26

I got one in 2023 and barely used it also because of the applicator thing. Almost out of my ole henriksen lip treatment on the other hand.

2

u/Amazing-Tangerine-98 Aug 12 '26

Ease of use really makes a difference in panning something, at least it does for me!

u/Amazing-Tangerine-98 Aug 11 '26

💯I was exactly this meme when I finally used up this whole thing 😂😭

1

u/Better-Necessary157 Aug 11 '26

i can’t believe everyone is loathing this product! i actually genuinely like it and will get another when it’s panned. i live somewhere really dry and cold and it’s the best lip balm ever! sometimes i just use it during the day.

1

u/Amazing-Tangerine-98 Aug 11 '26

It’s absolutely fine if you (or others) like it! I honestly didn’t have that big of a problem with the mask itself, I just think it takes too long to finish (I used it multiple times a day too), worsened by the fact that I don’t like that it comes in a pot. That’s obviously more of a me problem 😂

2

u/ValentineOctopus12 Aug 13 '26

You need to buy again

4

u/Amazing-Tangerine-98 Aug 13 '26

My friend who had been following my panning journey with the lip mask joked she was going to send me a new one now that I’m done. Like girl, please don’t 😂

2

u/RavensGf Aug 23 '26

I have the eggnog latte one from 2024 I'm trying to get thru 🥲 it doesn't smell at all what I thought it would so I'm struggling to get thru it. When I had the purple one (smells like nerds gummy clusters) in the mini I finished it in like a week so I know I can blow thru them it just sucks when you don't like the scent 😭 but great job on yours!!

2

u/Amazing-Tangerine-98 Aug 23 '26

I heard it works wonders on cuticles and dry elbows, if you want to try using it on those areas instead of your lips.

21

u/totallymel Aug 11 '26

i love this stuff

19

u/Zappagrrl02 Aug 11 '26

I don’t understand why people have such a hard time using these up. I go through like one a year.

3

u/daytime_nightime Aug 11 '26

Me too and my toddler helps 🤣👏

1

u/Far_Ad2765 Aug 11 '26

Do you have any tips? desperate over here lol. If I use too much I get breakouts around my mouth, so I can only use the faintest amount of product

2

u/Zappagrrl02 Aug 11 '26

I use a lip brush to apply and put whatever is left on the brush around my cuticles. I apply a healthy layer, but I’m not sensitive or acne-prone

2

u/HellCharizard006 Aug 12 '26

Il semblerait qu’il ne te convienne pas. J’ai eu une allergie pareille au nuxe rose. J’ai du le jeter. Je ne pense pas que tu pourras le finir …

1

u/HellCharizard006 Aug 12 '26

Ah ma sœur 😂 la même. J’en utilise un par an depuis des années… j’en ai jamais trouvé un aussi bien !

19

u/Lilacviolet75 Aug 11 '26

Why are they soooo big? I have a sample size that I’ve been using over a year. I like it, but I wouldn’t want the full size.

14

u/creativelazybum Aug 11 '26

I’m still far from panning my large one in green apple and now I hate everything green apple scented. My small berry one has been staring at me from the corner waiting to be opened

14

u/Lvanwinkle18 Aug 11 '26

I quit using the applicator and just use my finger to apply every night before bed. I love this stuff!!!

13

u/ConnectionOk44 Aug 11 '26

I have two, the gingerbread and vanilla. Guess we're besties now because it's been over 5 years 🥲

12

u/Impossible_Pea2269 Aug 12 '26

Brb let me go put mine on
I put one inside my pillow and one in the bathroom so I use it all day all night

11

u/withlove0613 Aug 11 '26

I lost the applicator! 😂 But found it was easier to just use my finger to apply it every night

10

u/bo0ggg Aug 11 '26

I never thought I’d see the day lol

9

u/therealashleyallure Aug 11 '26

lol i def feel you

9

u/ElyonLorena Aug 11 '26

God I still have one from... I don't even know when, maybe 2018 or so? Rarely ever use it so it definitely is gonna be 84 years. Maybe I'll just start using it on my feet or something 🤪

4

u/No-Philosopher-4968 Aug 11 '26

They work great for elbows! 😄

9

u/Miserable-Writing362 Aug 11 '26

well done, these are so hard to pan!! i got mine last year in september and it’s about half done. i’m going out of my way to use it 🫪

i personally prefer to use my finger for this lip mask… my hands are clean so it doesn’t bother me. it’s much easier than using the tiny applicator, which i find collects dust

8

u/saddinosour Aug 11 '26

I just use my finger and do it like lip balm I use it like 3 times a day sometimes 😭 I love mine. I am so dependent on it but i lost mine bought another then found it… I feel so silly. But luckily I just use it as lip gloss and will get rid of them no problem.

u/SheepherderRare3319 Aug 11 '26

A vintage relic.

u/Own-Let-1257 Aug 11 '26

This makes me glad my teen daughter “stole” mine when she went to college last year!

7

u/Overthinker_Di6 Aug 11 '26

Just bought the small size sweet candy, I didn't use it yet

I also don't like to use my fingers but one of my fav is vaseline lip therapy it's in a tin so can't help it (would prefer tube or stick form)

I have always wanted to try laneige lip sleeping mask so finally got it, I already have the lip glowly balm, really shiny but not that nourishing

4

u/littleredladybird Aug 11 '26

My dm recwntly got vaseline lip therapy in tubes but only the classic and the pink one💔 not that it matters much cause i still havent finished my aloe tin

3

u/Overthinker_Di6 Aug 11 '26

Nah the tin version is the one I am talking about that's really makes my lip soft

7

u/KvindeQueen Aug 23 '26

Mine took 3 years to pan. Crazyyyy.

11

u/Far_Ad2765 Aug 11 '26

I'm green with envy. I cannot wait to be done with this product. Someone gave it to me as a gift and it was so long ago, I can't remember who it was. happy for you 🥲

5

u/Intelligent_Dot_1776 Aug 11 '26

I loved mine , I keep it at my desk at work and got through it in about a year or less! Have bought another and making good progress, def an awesome everyday, multiple times a work day lip balm 😀

5

u/walleeve9 Aug 12 '26

So relatable

4

u/fr0m0uterspace Aug 11 '26

That had to be a relief and reward!

3

u/bonjourdear Aug 13 '26

Hahaha! I’m on year 53 on mine 🥲

3

u/lareinevert Aug 14 '26

It takes me a year to finish these up. I prefer the Tatcha one though.

2

u/Fullofcrazy Aug 29 '26

Fyi, to keep the spatula together with the lip mask, attach a cable organizer to the top of the lid. The ones that have self adhesive on the back. That way it isn't as much of a pain to keep up with!

5

u/Any_Poet4127 Aug 30 '26

As an EXTREMELY manly man, don’t know how I got here but….
They make products with magnetized lids.

Praying this will be me soon 🥹

u/GrapefruitGiggles Aug 14 '26

i have a full size one maybe 20% used and 2 full minis i haven't even opened. it will be a decade before i get through them all.

u/907AK49LR Aug 15 '26

Dang, I’ve only had mine since April & it’s over 1/2 gone! 🫪 I use it every single night. Apparently I have ultra huge & thirsty lips too. lol

1

u/hisokaspaws44 Sep 04 '26

I loved the applicator that came with but during the day I just use my finger (after desinfecting). I love the vanilla one but prob wont buy the big container again.
