@ElleElleG thank you for starting this year's Pan It! thread! This year, I am only a little late in getting started with my Pan It! project (instead of several months late).😅 Here's hoping I can stick with it throughout the year and actually make some progress! 🤞 For 2026, I was inspired to try @itsfi 's approach and choose 10 items to work on for my project (although some of my 10 items are actually a whole category of items...but, close enough 😅 ). Unlike in previous years, at least for now, I'm also planning on only including panning-related goals, not use-related goals (so "do nails" or "do makeup look" or "light candle" however often, etc. will still be general beauty collection goals of mine, but I won't be including them in this project). My 2026 Pan It! project items:Glossier Milky Jelly Gentle Gel Face Cleanser 6 oz/177 mL (mini) (carryover from 2025 project) - goal: finishCOSRX ABC Toner (mini) (carryover from 2025 project) - goal: finishSince these are close to being done and are mini size, hopefully I'll be able to finish both of these fairly soon; I have backup items picked out to replace each of them once they're finished.lip balms (~105) - goal: finish at least 12, or one per month? (I may reevaluate this goal depending on how quickly I'm able to get through these)Yes, I have waaaay too many lip balms 😬 I was actually shocked by how many I had when I did my inventory 🙈 so I'm hoping to use up as many as I can this year!hand creams (45 + 1 foil) - goal: finish at least 8-12? (I may reevaluate this goal, depending on how quickly I'm able to get through these)I have way too many hand creams also...Function of Beauty Hair Mask (carryover from 2025 project) - goal: finishI made a tiny bit of progress on this last year, but I mostly forgot to use it - I don't use hair masks as often as I'd like. I'm hoping I can remember to use it regularly this year and finally finish it off.Glossier Stretch Concealer for Dewy Buildable Coverage (G12 - discontinued/old shade) (carryover from 2025 project) - goal: finishI can't find this at the moment, so this progress pic is from last year. It should be fairly accurate though, since I don't think I made that much progress after taking this photo. Hopefully I can finally finish this one off this year, too.fragrance samples I already have full size and/or travel sizes of (15) - goal: finishOne of the areas of my beauty collection that is most out of control is my fragrance samples - I literally have hundreds 😵 and somehow, I keep accumulating more 😅 I'm hoping to use all of these up and free up a bit of space in my collection. If I manage to finish all of these before the end of the year (which I hope I will), I'll decide which of my samples to prioritize using up next.candles - goal: get current collection down to one box instead of twoI didn't inventory my candles, so I'm not sure of the exact number, but I have quite a lot - two big boxes full right now. I have been keeping them separated by seasons - spring + summer scents in one box, fall + winter scents in the other - and the current season's box is kept in my room, while the other stays in the basement. My goal is to use up at least half of my current stash, so that I can consolidate my remaining candles into just one box.foils - goal: use 5-10 per month? (I may reevaluate this goal once I've had a chance to see how many I typically get through in a month)I was too lazy to gather and inventory all of my foils (I currently have them stored separately according to category of product), so I'm not sure of the exact number, but I have quite a few - mostly skincare, with some hair + body care and a few makeup as well.deluxe samples - goal: use 2-5 per month? (I may reevaluate this goal once I've had a chance to see how many I typically get through in a month)Again, I didn't inventory these either, as they are all scattered in with the rest of my beauty collection, but I have quite a few. I feel like with both foils and deluxe samples, I kind of forget about them most of the time, so I'm hoping to use + finish more of them this year. That's all for now - I'll be back in a month or so, hopefully with some progress to report! 💜

@blackkitty2014 awesome job! It's always so fun to rediscover new/old loves that you've forgotten about for a while. I know what you mean about using LE products - I have the same struggle between saving it (since I can't replace it) and not letting it go to waste 😅

@sissyboi72 Those are all pretty shades.

New fragrance launch from Henry Rose on 1.20.2026

@missjeanie - - Stick to a low/no buy until Sephora's first sale (I can buy necessities such as cleanser or moisturizer). - Stay on top of keeping my collection decluttered, say every six months or so. - Possibly try a low/no buy after Sephora's first sale until the second sale. I'm thinking about retirement in a couple of years. I can't continue to spend the way I have. Now would be good time to ease my way into better spending habits. 🙃

@SportyGirly125 what a shame! There needs to be better essences!

Oh, those are two great cleansing balms @ather! 😍 Sorry to hear your skin is acting up; I hear ya on having fussy skin. I think the weather definitely contributes to it and the weather this year seems to be particularly tempermental everywhere, like colder, chillier than usual.

@artysbabydoll Actually, I just checked your profile page and the review is listed, so hopefully it's on the product page 🙂
