I just finished a whole year of a makeup no-buy and hit so many pans-it was super satisfying! When the year ended, I let myself buy a few things, but only what I knew I’d actually love and use. Now it’s November, and I’m starting another no-buy year. How fun :)
I’m not panning in any structured manner, meaning no progress shots or any ordered tracking, but I do make a point of using specific products in order to use them up eventually. Like I’m gravitating towards the blush on which I’ve already hit pan - to make the pan grow, to make the blush closer to being done. Same with the powder etc. Just satisfying to watch the products gradually disappear.
i unintentionally started a pan project and no buy year after getting overhwhelmed with the amount of makeup products i had. my collection is considerably smaller and it's still getting small as we speak, which i love because 1) i'm saving money 2) i'm aware of what i own 3) i don't waste time choosing what i'm gonna use. i have so many empties, i'm collecting the empty packagings to exchange for discount at my favorite makeup store. i'm gonna need a new foundation soon and it's a bit on the pricey side, so it's nice to save a little $$ :) i love watching your videos because you're very mindful of your choices. i have a blush that i don't really like, and i'm still using it because it was expensive and i can make it work, it doesn't make me ugly, i doesn't ruin my skin, it just isn't the most flattering shade, i'll keep using it, just won't rebuy it!
I finished a Milano blush in Luminoso a year or so ago and I swear I had it for like 3-4 years and it was the only blush i used. Thankfully I’m a creature of habit and had no problem using it daily for that long but definitely got my moneys worth! The feeling of finishing it was euphoric 😂
I accidentally started a project pan in August. I saw a journaling spread about ‘makeup logging’ so I did that, then I noticed how i valued quantity over quality within my makeup so then I discovered project pan.
It's so great to really make you aware of how much you use makeup and how long it takes to use up. It puts things into perspective and helps with not buying as often!
I´m not really sure about this, but i think some compacts in that format are indeed for refill purpose, for vintage containers like the rimmel london one. That would explain the fragil packaging (no native english speaker, sorry for the mistakes!)
yes, I think back in the day this was true but now the pans are really glued on there and aren't easy to remove (I actually broke mine depotting it to the new compact...) so they're meant to be used in the original packaging. It's just really low quality because the product is cheap.

Chilled panning, I love it!

i have a rimmel bronzer and im also keeping the lid together with tape😭
It's always the rimmel lids!
You could put the powder inside a little plastic bag so its not open.
Already transferred it to another compact! 😊
