Hello, hello!
The lovely Ingrid from Curly Spring Blossom has once again convinced me to take part in a new project pan – this time a Spring Cleaning Project Pan. This one is a little different than the previous ones, as we will be only posting once a month with our progress and reviewing four of the sixteen products to be panned.
Make-up:
1. The Balm Bahama Mama (Bronzer / Blush)
2. The Balm Cabana Boy (Blush)
3. ColourPop Sticky Sweet (Blush)
4. ColourPop Stole the Show (Highlighter)
I’ve never hit pan on a blush, highlighter or bronzer. I’ve always just gotten rid of products when they get too old. I have so many cheek products that just don’t get enough love, so I thought that I would try to pick enough variety that I won’t get bored trying to use these ones up!
5. Concrete Minerals Bitches Brew (Eyeshadow)
6. ColourPop Birthday Girl (Eyeshadow)
7. ColourPop Stereo (Eyeshadow)
These are all beautiful colours, but I haven’t used any of them in quite awhile. I tried to pick colours that would work well with my Tartelette Matte palette.
8. The Balm Matte Moskowitz (Eyeshadow)
Other than swatching this deluxe eyeshadow sample, I think that I might have only worn this once since getting it in an Ipsy Glam bag a few months ago.
9. NudeStix Pulse (Lip & Cheek Stick)
This was lost in my stash for ages, I’d completely forgotten that I got this at last year’s Ipsy Generation Beauty event last May.
Skin, Body, and Hair Care:
10. Sukin Facial Scrub
I have several scrubs in my skincare stash, this one was the oldest one, so thats how it ended up in this round of panning.
11. Tarte Maracuja Oil
I picked this facial oil so that I will finally get around to reviewing it!
12. Haus of Gloi Pumpkin Butter – Rosy Cheeks
13. Haus of Gloi Pumpkin Butter – Cozy Rose
I still have a few other jars of Pumpkin Butter in my stash. I’ve banned myself from buying anything from HoG until I use up more of my stash!
14. Smith’s Rosebud Salve
Another lip balm that was lost in the house. Now that I’ve found it, I’m going to use it up!
15. The Body Shop Grapeseed Glossing Serum
When I first got this hair serum, I used it all the time. I just want to finish it!
16. Garnier Fructus Style De-Constructed Beach Chic
Someone gave this to me because they didn’t like the scent. I haven’t used it since the summer, but since I mostly wear my hair wavy, it is a good excuse to maybe finish it. If I don’t finish it by the end of this project pan, it will be going in the trash, or given away.
This time around, I’ll be using Stashy’s scientific method for measuring progress – I’ve weighed each of the products on my new little kitchen scale, so I can keep track of how much I will have used up each month.
Don’t forget to check out Ingrid’s blog for her Spring Cleaning Project!
Feel like joining in? Let us know!
Thanks for reading, and have a beautiful day! ❤
Disclosure: Nothing to disclose, all products either purchased by me, or gifted from a friend.
I’m flattered that I influenced you to weigh each item! I hope you’ll see progress especially on the makeup… it’s really difficult to use up 1g of powder, trust me, I’ve tried!
Good luck to both of you!

It was such a good idea Stashy! That way even if can’t see any progress visually, at least I’ll know that I’m making a dent in the powder based products!

Great post! Love the challenge, might have to try it with some of my products. I have the same issue of buying and using so many different products that I hardly ever finish anything, especially makeup!

Well this is exciting! I’m looking forward to seeing the progress you make. 🙂 I started a project Pan and I doubt I’ll hit the pan on anything but I will definitely use some items as much as I can 🙂
Good luck! The chart is a great idea!

The weighing technique is Stashy’s method!
Really hoping to at least make some progress – I’ve never finished a blush before!

I know that Stashy weighed her project pan products the last time around. I remember the one time one item got heavier. 😀
Come on Jodi, kill that blush!

That would be an achievement too! It wouldn’t be the desired achievement, but hey, if this happens, you’d be one of only two people (that I know of) on this planet who would have been visited by the secret product refill fairy. 😉

This is a great idea – I’m seriously trying to do this myself to shrink my collection size and to actually use the items I have! May not weigh everything, but I’m trying to keep products where I can see them and use them more regularly.

My goal is to at least make a dent in my stash. I decided to use Stashy’s weighing idea because with some products it is difficult to see any progress!
