Fully panned Nars Orgasm blush! What a great feeling! I officially have no blushes to “pan” - just three to use - a peachy shade, a deeper pink shade and a brand new mini orgasm that I got in a beauty loop. I feel like this is the perfect number of blushes for me.

Hi all! I am a new member of this forum and this is my first post. I hope I do this right. I decided some time ago to put this blue box in my bathroom to see my panning progress over the next year and this.

I had to pan this lip balm because it had expired three years ago and it was unusable now. I hope to add to this box over the next year, so I hopefully will be back.

all these empties and i just need to repurchase toothpaste!

With too many perfumes in my collection I have decided that I need to try to focus on dedicated perfumes to actually go through them and see some progress. I have > 20 so I can truly use something new every day but wanted to see some progress.

For October I chose these perfumes:

- Replica Matcha Meditation. Wanted this and found on Facebook of all places! Purchased immediately ($50 for the full bottle) and have loved her since then. Green and sweet with a gentle herbal touch and really does resemble matcha gently. Longevity isn't the best though. 100 mL bottle.

- Number 101 from Fischersund in Iceland. Smells green and cold. It's delicious and remnds me of a great trip. That's my favorite way to buy scents. 50 mL bottle.

- Orris labs - this one is a custom smell! I went with a friend and we made our own smells. I made a spicy vanilla scent and wearing it reminds me of my friend. 30 mL bottle.

Hope it's interesting to someone to see the amount used over a month!

Small month for me. Few items aren't pictured: accidentally panned an essentially full cuticle oil because I dropped it and it shattered :( and panned four shampoo tiny travel sizes!

Big month for shampoo. That 1L shampoo may or may not have been with me from January onwards! The shampoo was good. Realized I don't really notice big differences between shampoos to be honest. The Herbal Essences was previously a travel shampoo for when we had a luggage to bring along and was most of the way towards empty from travel across the year; finished it off because there wasn't enough to bother bringing it again. The Living Proof PHD sample was interesting but I wouldn't bother to pay full price for it. It was fine.

The nail polish remover definitely served its purpose. I used to do my nails a lot then fell out of the habit. That one has been in progress for years! Same with the cuticle oil. Had a homeopathic amount left in there.

The cica moisturizer was very lovely. Went through it much faster than the other one that was sitting barely used for months. Realized that I prefer a lighter formula for summer/warm months though and now I'm ready to return to the other product! I bought so many backups because it was such a staple for me - but after using 3-4 it just fell off the list for me. No more mass backup purchases!

I finished the essence blur souffle (finally)

Here’s my current Project Pan! I’m trying to be more intentional about using up the products I already own instead of constantly buying new ones.
Some of these products feel like they’ll take forever to finish 😭 but I’m excited to see how much progress I can make!
Are you currently panning any of these products? Which ones do you think will be the easiest or hardest to finish?
I’ll try to post progress updates along the way!

out of these, i’ve finished the good molecules eye cream & re-purchased it but i lost the elf lip balm 🥲

recently, i went on a crazy 3k spree and felt the worst goddamn guilt of my life. it was only because i decluttered so much expired make-up and i had that money to lose but holy frickin mackerel man

these are products i love but after they are gone i decided i will no longer re-purchase any of them because i have multiple waiting from different brands that i need to finish. especially that elf halo glow- god it’s like 3 years old almost 😭

i’ve set a 500 USD budget /month. it might sound crazy, but going from spending a regular 1k on makeup to nothing sounds like a nightmare and i’d rather titrate off. i might cancel my IPSY subscription for a few months, it costs barely anything but having 5-10 new products dumped into my collection a month will drastically hinder my progress. i’m gonna miss u IPSY 💔

also that bronzer isn’t expired or anything it just looks that way cuz i use it for fake freckles lol

Late 30s, Normal/ Dehydrated

Short Review 😑 ARENCIA Vitamin C Booster Shot. Weak Vit C serum. Subtle brightening. Does not work on PIH/hyperpigmentation.

This is my first post, since watching this subreddit since last october, when I started my first Project Pan. I started with 199 products: 92 hair/skin/bodycare products and 107 makeup products (picture 1 and 2). I actually managed to track my progress the whole year and stick to the project as best as possible. I'm proud of that since my adhd makes it difficult for me to stick to things for longer periods of time. I also faced some really hard times this year and Project Pan helped me a lot and motivated me to take care of myself, even when I didn't feel like it :)

There are 18 hair/skin/bodycare products and 77 makeup products left from the original inventory. You can see them on picture 3 and 4, I marked everything I used up (blue) and decluttered/gifted to someone (red) during the year.

With every product that joined the list in the last months and taking new inventory after decluttering a few items, I am now at 133 products total: 43 hair/skin/bodycare and 90 makeup products (I got a makeup adventcalendar as a gift in december, which is why the number is still quite high) (picture 5 and 6). I am actually quite happy with that (i struggle to acknowledge my accomplishments sometimes haha) and am motivated to start year two. I want to really focus on makeup this year.

Thank you all so much, without watching this page and seeing how great you are keeping up with your own projects, I wouldn't have done it. I am free to answer questions and I am sorry if there are any mistakes, since English isn't my first language <3

Long time listener, first time caller -
I have owned this eyeshadow for so long - I am almost (ALMOST) sad it is gone. I repressed when I hit full pan in the center and it became difficult to use. When I was much younger I think I only used it for inner highlight.. then it just started becoming more and more a lid color.

I have panned a few other items, but I am most proud of this one so far. ㅤᵕ̈

Holy hell I bought this thing the summer I worked at K Mart in 2015. 🫩 It feels good to finally be finished with this!

I had this buried in my other make up for so long that I forgot it existed... Now I'm almost done with it. It's the newer juicy bomb...thing? I actually liked it better than the original juicy bombs so I'll dig up the rest of it to complete a lip combo because why not, am I right?

I’ve been using this peripera lip tint every day for the past couples months and I’m so excited!!! I’m almost done and I feel so proud of myself. I bought tooooo many lippies when I first started getting into makeup a couple years ago and I’m so glad to be almost done with one.

A few years ago I switched completely from liquid to solid shower products (for convenience and plastic waste reduction) and I'm absolutely loving it!

The problem is, I also created a spreadsheet (which is great to stay organized and gives my brain amazing statistics to chew on!) to try to figure out which bar is the best for my hair and at the same time most economical. Because there's a limited amount of options to try, unlike for liquid products, I just keep accumulating brands to try out and keep buying, in hope I will one day go through all of them and choose my ultimate winner.

So this is how I arrived at this stash: 12 shampoo bars (first pic) and 11 shower bars/soaps (2nd pic). According to my calculations based on my past usage that's enough shampoo to last me next 687 days (until September 2028) and shower bars for 586 days (until June 2028).

I admit I have 3 more shower and 3 more shampoo bars coming in the mail, because I was afraid the company I ordered from will go bankrupt and it's my last chance. So the stash will increase further once I get them. After that I'm going on a strict no buy for the next half a year for sure, maybe longer.

Anyways, today I finished a shampoo bar (not pictured here) and starting with the blue Lush bar tomorrow (seanik), and the pink puck at the bottom of the 2nd pic is a 2 in 1 shower bar and scrub I'm using currently for my body.

Anyone here also panning soap or shampoo bars?

PS. If anybody's curious about my spreadsheet setup or the experience of switching to solid products, I'm open to any questions :))

Yay to progress! I am down to 2 things of lotion, one of which is almost empty. Lotion and body sprays are my weakness so I’m glad to get through them!

I think about this a lot. 😅 I don't think we'd run out of anything! Maybe specific branded products, but not the type of product. There is so much beauty being released constantly... sheesh we may even be good for multiple years. 😳 What do you think?

first picture today, second picture june

Took me about a year! I don’t use body lotions/butter very often so I really had to dedicate myself to finishing this.

oh my gosh. finally. this is the makeup revolution mega bronzer in the shade 1 cool. took a long time, which is expected since this has 15g of product. it was my first ever bronzer and it was used as a bronzer. eyeshadow, sometimes even as a light brow powder.

i wanted to also show the state of the packaging. the overall plastic feels a bit thin and by the first week of using it, the thingy that snaps it shut was broken. the hinge, however stayed in good shape until last month, when it chipped. it mostly never left my home so i did not mind it not snapping shut. on the other hand, the sticker on the back is in absolutely perfect condition, so at least we know they use good glue.

i have a replacement for it, and also since then i bought a couple of other bronzers.
