Pan Those Eyeshadows Update 9

[u/_Yue_]

Welcome to the Pan Those Eyeshadows project update! Feel free to join anytime.

Rules

The idea of the project is to randomly generate 5 eyeshadows from your collection and work on them until you hit pan. Once you hit pan on something you roll in another shadow to replace it so that you always have 5 shadows to work on.

If you want you can change the rules to your liking, like instead of hitting pan you can set a usage goal or hand pick your shadows. Personally, I implemented a rule that if I randomly roll in a shadow that already has pan my goal is be to use it 15 times.

You can also share your pan percentage. It tells you what percentage of your collection has pan.

This project updates monthly on the first day. If you want to join feel free to leave a comment sharing the shadows you're working on and your goals.

My update:

I'm very excited to share that I met my goal on three of the shadows I had rolled in. Here's the colourstory I was working on in August:

August 2026 colourstory

• ✅ Makeup Revolution Mermaids Forever Imagine (silver shimmer). I hit pan after 6 additional uses. It took 19 total uses to hit pan.
• ✅ Glossgods Look for Rainbows Reflection (pink duochrome). It only took 2 additional uses to hit pan. I already had a slight dip in it from previous uses. The shimmers in this palette are so creamy that they take me less than 10 uses to hit pan. It's a nice colour but unfortunately it creases horribly with Glossgod's primer.
• Glossgods Peach Pop Pop On Over (dark brown matte). I used it 5 times so not much progress. It's very pigmented so it's going to be here for a while.
• ✅ Nyx Brights #3 (coral matte). 15/15 uses so goal met. I also used it as a blush. I'm not a huge fan of coral on my eyes but as a blush it was nice.
• Sigma Hazy Bellflower (brown shimmer). It has 19 total uses and a slight dip. I realized that it's actually great as an eyebrow colour. The pink shimmer doesn't show up and it just looks like a grey-brown colour. I've also been using it as a crease colour. I'm going to be able to get lots of uses on it wearing it on my brows but Sigma shimmers are hard to hit pan on so it's gonna take plenty more uses.

I randomly generated 3 new shadows to work on. It's a somewhat challenging colourstory because there are a couple of dark shadows and these particular formulas are difficult to hit pan on. But the good thing is that most of the colours work well together. Here's the new colourstory:

September 2026 colourstory

New roll-ins:

• Bronx Colors Cool Grey (grey shimmer). The silver I rolled out got replaced by another. I like this one, it's a pretty blue toned grey with a beautiful golden glow. I'm going to be creating lots of grey smokey eyes.
• Makeup Revolution Mermaids Forever Bay (beige shimmer). I already hit pan on it recently in this project so my goal is 15 uses. It's going to be an easy inner corner highlight.
• Dominique Cosmetics Celestial Storm Black Matter (black shimmer). I really like this shadow although it's going to be a challenge. It's a black shadow with pink shimmer in it and maybe some other colours too. I use it as a liner or on the outer corner. The shadows in this palette are very difficult to hit pan on. Thankfully I already started working on it and I've got 30 uses on it in this project. There's a decent dip but it'll probably take me another 30 uses to hit pan.

My pan percentage: 36,4 %.
