My Collection Has Become Too Big

So I have decided, after buying a fair amount of new make-up recently, that I don't use enough of what I've already got in my make-up collection, thus I have decided to do a project pan! Yay, go me for actually plucking up the courage to do this.

I know to some people my make-up collection probably seems very small, but too me it has got too much, and in my small flat I was quickly running out of room to store it all, hence this project pan!

The only things I will be buying are necessities, like if I run out of foundation, mascara, moisturiser etc. I'm going to try and stick to this for 2 months, or at least a month! I am currently subscribed to Carmine Beauty Box so anything that arrives with this I am not going to count as they are just sample sized products and only last a very limited amount of time!

I will have a haul coming up for you guys either on here or on my YouTube channel, this is because I have recently bought stuff on-line that has not actually arrived in the post yet!

So to start off my first post about my project pan experience I am going to show you some of the products in which I intend to use up within the next couple of weeks. Cue some very poser-ish photographs of me with the products!

So firstly I have this Clinique Even Better foundation in the colour 02 Fair. I am guessing (by the weight of the bottle) that this only has 20% of the products left, so this should be pretty easy to use up. This is a foundation that I used to love, but just went off it due to finding other foundations, like the MAC Prolongwear, that I love more. This is still a very good foundation that I will use just so I can use it up and therefore remove it from my collection.

This Revlon Colour Stay Eye-liner in Brown, is a favourite of mine, but it has very little left and I have other brown liners which I will use up before I repurchase this one. I find it stays on my waterline all day, hence why I have been so reluctant to use any of my other brown liners.

This is the natural collection blush in pink cloud. I love this blush so much, and use it almost everyday. It was so inexpensive since it was from natural collection. I really rate natural collection products, I have a few of their blushes and lipsticks and have tried their pressed powders in the past also. This is definitely one of the products that I will repurchase once my project pan is over, just because it is such a nice baby pink blush and it lasts all day on my skin.

This MAC Select Moisture Cover Concealer is another product that I used to love, but got lost in the depths of my collection when I discovered the Collection 2000 Lasting Perfection Concealer. I still like this products but it doesn't cover my under eye area as much as other concealers which I have found more recently, again I will use this product up just so it is not hanging around in the bottom of my make-up drawer unused.

I got roped into buying this BareMinerals Prime Time when I was buying their mineral foundation, I did love the product but find that highstreet ones are just as good (and a fraction of the price). This is on its last legs and has barely anything left in it, so I think a couple more uses and this will be finished. I definately won't be repurchasing this when I am finished with my project pan as I love my GOSH foundation primer more.

These two mascaras, Maybelline Falsies and Rimmel Sexy Curves Waterproof, are mascaras that I really like, and use in conjunction with each other to create a look that I like. These two are starting to dry out but I have a back-up of the falsies mascara and other mascaras within my collection that I feel I could get the same look with.

And last but not least we have the GOSH lipstick in 134 Darling. As you can probably tell by how much of this product has been used that again I used to love this lipstick, but as I have been using a lot of fake tan lately it does not give a very flattering nude lip, although I think if I pair it with the right lipgloss I will be able to wear this lipstick and use it up, even when I am wearing fake tan (which you can probably tell by the photos, haha).

I apologise for the extremely long post, but I hope this has been interesting for everyone and I will keep you all updated on how I am getting along with this project pan, and will keep my empty containers to show you all in a future post!

Love
Claire
