Pan It! - 2021 Challenge ๐Ÿ†

Welcome to the 2021 Pan It Challenge !!

 

 

HUGE round of applause for the 2020 Panners ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿพ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿพ๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿพ Despite an incredibly hectic year I couldn't be more proud of each and every one of you who spent even a second thinking about your projects.  It was a huge inspiration for me and I'm sure others as well.  Cannot wait to see your new projects and whatever this year has in store for us!

 

The "Rules"

To accommodate a variety of interests, you all are encouraged to pick items to pan that are most suitable to your collections.  For some, this might mean focusing on a particular type of product (like lipstick) and for others this may include a larger variety spanning your entire makeup or skincare routine.

 

Getting Started (please share the following)

  • Which item(s) you would like to work on
  • How long you will work on said item
  • Goal: explore a new item, revisit an old item, decide whether to keep pass or trash, and/or completely finish item, etc.
  • Starting photo of item

Please Use This Thread To...

  • share what item(s) you are working on,
  • provide comparative progress photos of your item(s) monthly (at the beginning of the month when possible),
  • ask questions,
  • encourage others,
  • motivate others with the looks you create with your item(s)

Tips and Tricks to Panning/Getting Some Use Out of Your Stash:

 

Spoiler
  • Take photos!!  When you think you arenโ€™t making a dent in anything look back at those photos, Iโ€™m certain youโ€™ll see some changes ๐Ÿ˜ƒ
  • If you goal is to hit pan or use something up entirely, try concentrating your brush/applicator in the same area each time you use it
  • Multitask your products: eyeshadows as highlighter, lipstick as blush, eyeshadow as brow powder, etc. 
  • Layer eyeshadow to create different colors (this is especially helpful to get use out of shades youโ€™re not fond of).
  • Have shadows with a ton of fall out?  Use water
  • Watching the progress of othersโ€™ can be fun but try not compare your progress to theirs.  We all use our makeup differently and have different goals.
  • Donโ€™t restrict yourself to only using the item(s) you are working on.  Itโ€™s more than OK to incorporate other items or take a break!
  • Makeup should be funโ€ฆ.if you begin to dread doing your makeup because you made a commitment to use a product that you now hate, TOSS IT!  Do not force yourself to use up something you donโ€™t like.  Move on to something else!  (This includes excluding particular shades from your goals if focusing on palettes, etc.)

Ideas to Help You Pan Those Items:

Spoiler
  • Roll the dice: number your items and use a random number generator to pick what you will use each (day/week/month/etc.) 
  • Layer/Mask: items you are less fond of under things you like
  • Pan a Look: at the beginning of the week pick a look that you can wear everyday
  • Recreate: a look worn by a fellow BICer, celebrity, etc.
  • Spice up an "everyday" look by adding subtle pops of color (in the crease or on the lower lash line, mix lip products to make shades wearable, etc.)

Thank you so much @BluePaisley! ๐Ÿ˜Š It took years and the encouragement and support of the community on this thread to make it happen. Iโ€™m also keeping this photo because Iโ€™m not sure I would believe myself if I didnโ€™t have this pic of it. ๐Ÿ˜‚ 

Re: Pan It! - 2021 Challenge ๐Ÿ†

New pan, @itsfi!! Congrats!! Amazing progress on the rest!!  

Re: Pan It! - 2021 Challenge ๐Ÿ†

@haleyvvvv, thank you! Itโ€™s one I didnโ€™t think would happen this year so it makes for a great surprise! 

Re: Pan It! - 2021 Challenge ๐Ÿ†

@itsfi -- Oh my. That Tarte pan!!!! Wow. That alone would make the year for me, but using up a body cream too? Great panning year!!! 

Re: Pan It! - 2021 Challenge ๐Ÿ†

Thank you so much @heavyhedon! At first I thought a piece of glitter from some other product had fallen into the blush ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚ because I was not expecting to hit pan on it - I wasn't so sure it had an actual bottom. Hahaha! Oh my goodness, I hit a rough patch for maybe 3 weeks in November where my skin was soooooo dry and itchy. So it was a body oil and the B&BW cream coming out of the shower and another layer before going to bed.

Re: Pan It! - 2021 Challenge ๐Ÿ†

@itsfi -- LOL seriously. My hubster heard me from the other room. 

Re: Pan It! - 2021 Challenge ๐Ÿ†

@itsfi OOHH I can feel that Sculpture pan in my soul! It's so close! And woooooo pan!

Re: Pan It! - 2021 Challenge ๐Ÿ†

Awwww, I hope so @Samtian! It would be nice to hit pan on Sculpture before the year is over. Fingers crossed . . .

Re: Pan It! - 2021 Challenge ๐Ÿ†

@ElleElleG, ohhh, I feel happy to see whatever little bit of pan has showed up on that Tarte blush, especially given how much I neglected it during last year's project pan. I wouldn't have continued to work on the blush if it were not for this thread and everyone here being so encouraging!

Re: Pan It! - 2021 Challenge ๐Ÿ†

I seem to always get excited around this time of year to get ready for the next pan year haha. I already have most of my categories ready and photographed. Just waiting till the end of the year for anything else I might find or get. Every category but 2 have their own goals. The other 2 are things I know I won't pan or use up, but things I need to get more use into. This year I started at 781, next year 745+. I decided not to count my little perfume samplers this time but I know its over 200, hence the + lol. 

Re: Pan It! - 2021 Challenge ๐Ÿ†

Lol I was just about to ask if anyone had started picking their items for โ€˜22

Re: Pan It! - 2021 Challenge ๐Ÿ†

@ElleElleG Hahaha I get too excited easily. 

Re: Pan It! - 2021 Challenge ๐Ÿ†

I'm excited to see everyone else's panning projects for the new year-- here and on YT. Really working on my own last things I might get done from this year, right now. 

 

@Samtian -- with you on those little perfume samplers. I have so many, and I can't wear scent everyday or my skin gets oversensitive and rashy. Looking forward to your next line-up! 

Re: Pan It! - 2021 Challenge ๐Ÿ†

@heavyhedon Thank you! I can't wait to see yours!

Re: Pan It! - 2021 Challenge ๐Ÿ†

Small update for me. My smell is trying to come back, maybe 20-30% and I am able to smell the Pink body mist I was working on. I don't like it haha I'm kicking it out and going to move on to the Hollister one I set aside, so I could focus on the Pink. 

Re: Pan It! - 2021 Challenge ๐Ÿ†

Yay that it is coming back, @Samtian!! That's great news!!

Re: Pan It! - 2021 Challenge ๐Ÿ†

@Samtian, yessss to your sense of smell coming back!! ๐Ÿ™Œ๐Ÿผ Bummer that the Pink body mist isnโ€™t working for you, but hey, now thereโ€™s one more product destashed! ๐Ÿ˜‰ 

Re: Pan It! - 2021 Challenge ๐Ÿ†

@itsfi Thank you! And that is my thoughts exactly! I have a lot more to go through so it's no big loss to me. 

Re: Pan It! - 2021 Challenge ๐Ÿ†

I'm glad to hear that, @Samtian . 

Re: Pan It! - 2021 Challenge ๐Ÿ†

@heavyhedon Thank you!
