Finish 6 by Summer 2015

Yes, I am doing a second mini Project Pan. My reasoning is that I have a bunch of "spring" like products that I would like to get rid of and a mini project pan would force me to use it up.

March Makeup Tray Mixup: Spring/Summer 2015 Trends Part 1

I like to browse through what is happening in the runways even though most of the time I don't follow it. While many trends are repetitive, there are times when I see something new and would like to try it out.

There are some trends I would like to try hence why I picked this theme for March. There's also the added benefit that I don't have to think about a theme this month.

For reference sake, I am using the Harpers Bazaar's list of Spring 2015 trends which you could check here.

Project 75 Pan 23 Month Update:

Another month, another batch of empties.

Project 75 Pan 22 Month Update

This is the least progress I made ever. I did not feel like putting on makeup lately and I revamped my entire makeup tray. Actually, subtract the makeup tray. I could not bring my makeup tray during the move. (there was not enough room in the car)

Since I am not the type of person who would just skip on a month because I have nothing to post, I would just post my makeup basket (ahem, bag). These are the products that are most likely to be used up first.

Products I want to finish in 2014 Final Update

It's been a long time coming and it's been an interesting year for me. I gained a lot, I lost a lot. I am just looking forward to 2015 to see that it has in store. (Hopefully mostly good things.)

Finish 5 by Cinco de Mayo

For 2015, I would like to do a lot of seasonal project pans. Think of this as smaller project pans that go under my big project 75 pan. megsmakeup8 in youtube came up with "Finish 5 by Cinco de Mayo" which I would like to join.

There is another tag going around "Finish 7 by Spring" but I chose to go with "Finish 5 by Cinco" because I think I would be more successful with this tag.

Products I want to Finish in 2014 Update

There's only two months left before 2014 ends and I want to make one update before the finale. I used these products a lot in the past few months.There are also a lot of products I made little progress on.

October Makeup Tray Mix-Up: Unsung Products

For October I decided to use "Unsung Makeup Product" as my theme for this month. These are the products I  actually like but for some reason I don't usually reach out for. Whether it's because I'm too busy working on another product.

Project 75 Pan 17 month Update/ Products I want to finish in 2014 Update

Hey another disappointing month for project pan. Though I had more events to attend this month, I simply didn't feel like wearing makeup lately. I blame the San Fernando Valley heat. I made minimal progress this month but I made progress nonetheless.

Project 75 Pan 16 month Update/Products I want to use up in 2014 Update

Welcome back to our regularly scheduled blog posts. However, I added a few products I want to finish before the year ends.

July Makeup Tray Mix-up: Melt-Proof products

It's a hot, hot summer especially here in the LA area. (Which, let's face it, is a desert) This month, I chose melt-proof products. I am going to school on the summer just for fun so I have an excuse to wear makeup everyday. But that also means that I would need to use melt-proof products so my face wouldn't be melting off int he middle of the day.

Project 75 Pan: Products I want to Use up in 2014

Here's the thing, I'm moving away to Northern California for school. I do not want to bring my entire makeup collection. I only want to bring stuff I that I absolutely love. So my goal right now is to finish up all the products that I simply want out of my collection. Usually these products are too old, so old that I had them even before I started labeling when the product expires.

As a side note, I would still do the Makeup Tray Mix-up just to make things interesting. 

December Makeup Tray Mix-up: Products I Hit Pan On.

We are at the last stretch of the year and int he last ditch effort to finish as many products as possible before the year's end I pick the theme "Products I hit pan on." After all, the easiest products to finish are the ones already halfway finished.

November Makeup Tray Mix-up: Discontinued/Limited Edition Products

I debated what the theme for this month's Makeup tray mix-up but I have come to the conclusion that this month's theme is "Discontinued Products". I picked this theme because sometimes I find myself "saving" discontinued products but in reality, the reason I even bought those products in the first place is to use them.

Project 75 Pan Progress and Products I've Hit Pan On!!!

Wow, it has been 6 months since I started my Project 75 Pan or 75 Empties as I would like to call it. It has also been longer since I last bought any cosmetics for myself (which was Tarte's Maracuja Divine Shine Lip gloss I bought from Hautelook which is not even open yet).

In fact, I have a box of unopened cosmetics because I didn't want germs to get into it. I want to use up a few more cosmetics before I open a new one. You could say that I have a box of "back-ups" but very few products I own are repeats. The fun thing is that it's like shopping when I open a brand new product after hiding it away for months.

May 15, 2013 Empties: 10/75 finished

So I debate with myself whether or not to make this post because it's so near to my birthday and I wanted to make a birthday haul post.

I am debating whether or not to post all the things I want to post in one go or to spread it out over the next couple of weeks. We'll see next Saturday then.

For a while I was worried that I would not have anything to post for this month's empties but one by one I started using up quite a few products. Considering how long it takes to use up a makeup product I am proud that I used up 2 this month.

The 75 Empties March 15, 2013: 5.67/75 Finished

Another month has gone by and that means it's time for another Empties post. As promised, I have more empties this month than the measly three empties from last month.

January 15, 2013 Empties: 2/75 finished

As promised, this is my empties so far.
