Project 20 Pan!! Part 2


So the majority of my project pan is eyeshadows because frankly I'm addicted, its true. ( I'm jess and I'm a makeup addict).
This is the CG eye brightening shadow palette for brown eyes. When it first came out i was slightly addicted to the coppery bronze shade just looked fantastic on my eyes, and that cream shade woah baby its perfect. (A dupe for the cream shade is brule by wet n wild). I never really would have thought that bronze and grey go together but they are a great pair!
This is one dirtyy palette. Elf products are amazing but a crap load of fall out on there shadows. This is the 6 pan natural palette. At the time i bought this it was "limited edition" but now it comes out with every seasonal collection. the colors are ehhh. either not so pigmented or heavy on the glitter, the top middle gold one the so soft it crumbles when you put a brush on it. will not be replacing this once it is gone i can say that for sure.
Oh yes another CG, hey its cheap and most of all not to bad on pigmentation, so there..lol. This is rosy outlook its been discontinued for a while now. when i first started makeup this is the the only color i wore to i bought a bunch of them, this is finally the last one. Its very similar the CG mink ( which is a dupe for all that glitters by mac). Its a good  all over the lid color. that's bout it..

My all time favorite elf mineral eyeshadow, Celebrity. its a sparkly golden champagne color that works great all over the lid. pop a little dark purple in the crease and your good to go. Ive been wanting to finish this for a while so i can have the container for one of the studio shadows that broke. i would deff be re buying this for a long time.
Lol.. the studio shadow that broke..this is amethyst, a amazing dark purple with some shimmer to it. came broken when i ordered and barely used it since then. I just didn't want to deal with the mess, but recently i spotted at cvs these lovely travel container jars and put it in there. works great now.prob not a re buying unless i fall in love with it during how every long it takes me to finish project pan.

I had to had a highlight color i could actually use.. this is Urban Decays skimp. I'll never hit pan with this, but a girl can try. its a shimmery cream color that works great. im not sure if it is still available because i got it in a set. i love the richness of UD shadows.

Three eyeliners.. yeah well i have a wayy to many of each color so i had to pic three. Starting on the left. Elf $1 eye brightening eyeliner in black, not the blackest black but its alright. Just need to get rid of it so i can open my new linear intense carbon black that im soo excited for,( two pack at target for $9.99). the middle is a dark brown eyeliner from a set i got one year for Christmas at Costco. yeah same as the elf ones... And the last is another elf eye brightening eyeliner in plum, a deep purple with a little bit of blue undertones in it.Over all im not so impressed with the $1 eyeliners from elf not as creamy as they should be much rather spend the money on CG liquiline or miliani.
Last two to end my project 20 pan..(finally) Is two CG mascaras.The lash blast volume waterproof in blackest black and the CG natureluxe mousse mascara in blackest black. The lash blast is left over from summer time and prob needs to be thrown out but it hasnt messed with my eyes yet and almost completely gone. Its good everybody on YouTube raves bout it, has a huge rubber brush with short spikeys. The covergirl Natureluxe has become my Holy grail of mascaras for the moment its lengths, separates and give enough volume to make me happy. the brush is a rubber brush but skinner then lash blast and longer spikeys.

So this ends my project 20 pan. i might make a video about this or not havent decided.BUT i deff will keep y'all updated kinda forces me to stay committed ya know? i know a couple other you tubers are doing a project pan now to save up for Christmas. So jump on the bandwagon y'all!!

Project 20 Pan!! Part 1

Hey yall, so this is my first blog post. yay!! I'm going to try to blog everyday for a while to get into the hang out things. So what better way to kick things off by a project pan? So lets just dive into to it shall we....

My Rules:
  • No buying new makeup! till 75% of the 20 are gone.
  • Try to only use these products plus a couple necessities
  • I'm allowed one day a week i can use different eye shadows not included in the project pan. 
  • The products i have hit pan on MUST be finished and the ones i have not hit pan on must hit pan before i can call it quits.
So the first thing is  Covergirl Aqua smoothers Tinted Moistizer in Fair to Light. I'm not a big fan of this product and never have been, i'm just not a tinted moistizer kinda girl i guess. So this has just got to go, there is about half left so it shouldn't take long. I'm just mixing some of this with my current foundation ( Revlon colorstay). and it seem to be going alright.
Next is the Revlon Age defying Concealer in light to medium. I bought this a while ago during CVS's 75% clearance sale. This bottle NEVER ENDS, i swear I've been using it for the longest time and it just never stops. It works well as a concealer, nothing to rave about in my book.

These on the other hand are some of the best setting powder a girl can buy! I have multiple back ups of these and will always repurchase these, rumor is that these are being discontinued???? makes me want to cry. but i think i have enough to last me two years tho. gotta stock up when they were packaged buy one get one.lol.
Any who as you can see I've hit pan on both of them and have for a while tho. Great product they are the rimmel stay matte powder in transparent and sandstorm.

Looks gross huh? This is the sample size Original Urban Decay Primer Potion i depoted. Call me a snob but this is the holy grail of primer potions. This is just a must have in the beauty world. 
End of story.

This is the elf under eye concealer and highlight duo. I just really want to finish the highlight side its one of my only highlights i have ( beside eyeshadow). Its an alright highlight nothing that i couldn't live with out, but i am on the hunt to find a good high light to replace this. any suggestions?

Oh yes the famous elf Blush and contour. This was my first ever elf product kinda got me hooked.. Great blush very sparkly, very pigmented. the "contour" tho sucks as a contour is has shimmer to it and sucks as a bronzer for me its very dark, I'm working with it tho. I'm counting each product as a pan. I've made a dent in the blush, but not so much for the bronzer. I might just trash the bronzer and keep using my NYC sunny. haven't quite decided yet.
My only lip product of the bunch so i thought i would just add it here. i have plenty of lipsticks and glosses but i just tend not to where them everyday. this is just a vanilla soft lips,every girl has to have a chapstick! or maybe like 20 of them... its 75% percent gone so ill prob be grabbing another one i have open. ill update ya on that. So this concludes part one of the project ten pan i think that's 9 of the twenty. On to part 2!!
