Project Pan 2020 - Makeup I Want To Make Progress On Or Finish In 2020!


As much as I of course want to and no doubt will continue to buy, try and add new products into my collection this year, I also really want to attempt to try to get more use, or hopefully even use up totally old products I already own too. And not only that, I want to make a point of it here, on my blog! I've dabbled in various 'Products I Want To Use Up/Get More Use Out Of' posts before and done a few 'Shopping My Stash' posts but never solidly committed to it on a regular basis - in this case, for the entire year! So, aswell as buying and trying new (or maybe just new to me) beauty products in 2020, today I'm gonna compile a list of items I want to make more progress on - or hopefully use up completely - over the next 12 months. And - spoiler alert - I'm keeping this strictly makeup-only as it's the category I have the most of and I want to keep things a little more simple, at least for this year. Welcome to to introduction to my new 'end-of-the-month-series' that will be going up shortly before my Monthly Favourites and will be naturally replacing my 'Where Are They Now? Favourites' which ran throughout 2019 - 'Project Pan 2020 - Makeup Edition'...

To start with - let's outline some 'rules'...

  • The first being, I'm not gonna be as 'strict' with it as some others are. As I've perhaps already covered - these are not the only products I'm going to be using for this whole year and also, I'm not dedicating myself to using these products solidy throughout the whole year either. I simply just want to make a pledge that these are the products that I am making an effort to use, or use up in 2020. 
  • Also, I am giving myself the flexibility to change things about if I want to. Of course, if and when a product is totally finished - it'll be moved out of this series and replaced with something else - but if I want to do this before something is finished, I will! Maybe I'm getting bored of a product, am not getting along with it as well as I hoped or maybe have seen enough progress to warrant me trying to so the same to something else. Either way, this will be how this is gonna go. 
  • The only products talked about each month will be the ones still in the project or anything I'm adding in - unless for some reason there is a product outside of it that I use up. Whether it's in the line-up or not, I want to mention all makeup products I use up this year as I feel that's one of the main aims of doing it in the first place!
  • Generally, as this will be an end-of-the-month series, I'll be trying to do any switch arounds in each monthly post - aswell as of course updating on how I'm getting on with using everything - but if I want to do it before then, I might. I really think flexibility is the key to this! 
  • Finally, going back to the whole 'non-strict' thing, I won't be weighing my products like others do to see how much I'm using. I understand the reasoning, but personally don't want to make it such a serious, numbers-based thing. Instead, I'll just be using my eyes (and how much pan there may be) to see how I'm getting on! Of course, we're already into January so I'm starting this a little later this month but from now on, we'll be doing the end of the month updates. With all that said - let's see what I'm starting out with...

Revolution X Soph Extra Spice Palette - an eyeshadow palette I adore, have panned a lot of shades in and would love to see more progress on.

Revolution Hydrate Primer - I do like this one, but I've since come to kinda prefer the I Heart Revolution Coconut Dream Primer so I'd really like to use this one all up!
Rimmel Lasting Finish Concealer - my favourite solid, pot concealer that is now discontinued so I would love to finish up and find a replacement for it.
Collection Lasting Perfection Weightless Foundation - a foundation that I like, but don't use as much anymore, so would love to change this in 2020!
CYO When the Sun Don't Shine Bronzing Powder - this bronzer is nearly all done, I'm pretty sure I can use this up totally in the near future.
Soap and Glory Solar Powder Bronzer - another bronzer that's close to being done - hopefully this year it will be!
theBalm Mary-Lou Manizer Luminizer - still one of my favourite highlighters ever - I've got a big pan in this already, really want to use it up even more!
MAC Lipstick in 'Patisserie' - this used to be one of my go-to nude lipsticks a few years back and got a tonne of use as a result! I'd love to reach for it more again this year and possibly use it all up.
Barry M Dewy Finish Setting Spray - I like this setting spray (it's probably my favourite drugstore offering), though it still doesn't beat my holy grail Urban Decay All Nighter and as a result - I use it less often! So I really want to try and get through this bottle soon...
