Pan It! - 2022 Challenge

[ElleElleG]

Welcome to the Pan It Challenge, 2022 Edition!!

I'm claiming a 2022 that's greater than our wildest imaginations, also for my longtimers this will be our FIFTH YEAR doing this challenge. Thanks to all who've stuck around and everyone who's tested themselves and jumped into the madness. You all are amazing 😘

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 aren’t making a dent in anything look back at those photos, I’m certain you’ll see some changes 😃
• 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 you’re not fond of).
• Have shadows with a ton of fall out?  Use water
• Watching the progress of others’ can be fun but try not compare your progress to theirs.  We all use our makeup differently and have different goals.
• Don’t restrict yourself to only using the item(s) you are working on.  It’s more than OK to incorporate other items or take a break!
• Makeup should be fun….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 don’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.)

Ah, great work @lmaster -- each new product sounds yummier than the last, too.

[lmaster]

Haha!! @heavyhedon thank you!!

[heartsmyface]

Starting a whole new panning project to move some well used items out.  

 

[ElleElleG]

Yay! Can't wait to see your updates @heartsmyface 

[Samtian]

@heartsmyface Great assortment! 

[heavyhedon]

Woo, nice bunch of items, @heartsmyface, I like the look of that mask, & I remember now I have one of those Tarte lippy minis, too, they're so nice. 

[heartsmyface]

@heavyhedon    Thé ‘mask’ is not actually a mask at all, it’s a primer with a confusing name.   I do appreciate they are very specific about what size ‘pearls’ to dispense.  Much nicer than saying something like ‘use an appropriate amount’. 

Oh gosh thé Tarte glosses are so good!  Between the incredible formula and the color this mini will be an easy pan!  

 

[heavyhedon]

@heartsmyface -- I have never used that brand before, very intriguing. A primer called "milky" definitely calls out to me. 

[itsfi]

These look lovely @heartsmyface! 😍 Always great to refresh and bring in some new products to work through. What's The Creme Shop compact? Is it a cushion compact foundation?

[heartsmyface]

@itsfi   It’s a salmon pink face base.  Another Boxycharm product.  It’s too dark for my face but it seems perfect for colour correcting undereyes 

[CookieGirl1]

Love what you picked out, @heartsmyface.

*I also love seeing your brush collection in the background 🙂

[heartsmyface]

@CookieGirl1 it should be an easy and quick enough panning round.  I don’t expect much of this will be left at the end of April if I stick to it.   (Hope I don’t eat those words). 

[haleyvvvv]

Great selection of products, @heartsmyface!! Can't wait to see your progress!!

I liked those Rodial drops, but I found the bottle to be so ill-designed, so much wasted product on the dropper. Which is too bad, because it is a lovely primer. 

[heartsmyface]

@haleyvvvv  The dropper doesn’t work for me consistently.  I dip it in and remove product from the exterior.   So much easier.  Once it’s low enough I’ll transfer the contents into a travel pod.  so I’m not having to dig in the bottle.

Intro: Early Spring is Peachy-Keen🍑

 Well, late posting this one but I did start just a few days after the end (March 7th) of my last mini-pan. I had the basic idea but it takes time to assemble/choose/snap pics of everything. My inspo is my usual habit of wearing cool peach makeup as well as some warm as soon as Spring weather hits. We had some nice days at the start of March already but cold & rainy the last few.

I'm keeping the early Spring in my heart by using a different peach blush or highlighter every day, then using them all again if possible, till May, when this peachfest will end. So far, I've only missed 2 days, and don't intend to miss any more. Since I often wear more than one blush or highlight at a time, I've made a rule I can't use two unused ones at the same time-- once used, it's fair game. I'm keeping all the ones I've used so far in a peach-colored box. Here are the swatches of those, minus one or two, and the items:

Spoiler

Here's what I have yet to use:
Some cool, some warm2 highlighters just added that look peachy on me

 Whether it's called peach whatever, acts peachy on me or smells like peaches, it's in there. I'm also using peachy face/eye/lip stuff, once or more per palette or item, along with a different neutral or colorful fill-in palette every 2/3 weeks. This round it's a mostly cool Morphe palette of soft shades that I'm loving. Here's the goods: 

I'm not crazy enough to try for every peach shade in all the eye palettes, but you never know! Also the TF Sweet Peach but it's in with the blush pics, as I've been panning Bellini mostly as a blusher/highlight. I will list all these items just this once, and maybe update when I change out the fill-in palette.
