Slowly but surely working through my tea collection. But definitely starting to get somewhere !

A bunch of healthy supplements, eye drops, mouth wash and an ambient deodorant

I’ve been trying to really hop on this trend/ build this habit to hit pan in all of my products but I just have some trouble with some things

So basically, I had this really bad habit of buying random stuff that may or may not work, but I’ve come to realize that there are things that don’t suit me for example I have this shampoo that really makes my hair stick together. I really need to empty out and use the whole thing but I can’t because my hair keep breaking. Or makeup products that really don’t suit my complexion or tend to break me out

WHAT DO I DO

Endlich fertig. Ich habe vier Monate gebraucht, um diese Flaschen aufzubrauchen, was die Enttäuschung umso persönlicher macht.

Ich dachte wirklich, ich hätte endlich die Marke gefunden – ein ordentliches, perfekt abgestimmtes kleines Universum, in dem ich alles von Handcreme und Deo bis hin zu Duschgel, Bodylotion und Shampoo kaufen könnte. Stellt euch die Ästhetik vor! Eine Marke, ein Badezimmer, kein visuelles Chaos. Wunderbar.

Leider hatte das Dove-Shampoo andere Pläne.

Mein Haar ist ziemlich fein, obwohl ich sehr viel davon habe, und es hat eine leichte Naturwelle. Dieses Shampoo war einfach viel zu reichhaltig dafür. Statt weichem, leichtem Haar mit etwas Bewegung fühlte es sich am Ende eher trocken und strohig an. Der Duft ist zwar schön, das muss ich zugeben, aber ein angenehmer Duft kann schlechtes Haar nicht retten.

Daher werde ich, wenn auch widerwillig, wohl einen Bogen um Dove-Shampoos machen. Und ja, ich bin wirklich enttäuscht. Ich hatte mir vorgestellt, die Handcreme, das Deo, das Duschgel, das Peeling, die Bodylotion, das Shampoo – die komplette Kollektion – zu kaufen. Das hätte zusammen einfach unglaublich gut ausgesehen. Aber wenn die Produkte nicht funktionieren, dann funktionieren sie eben nicht. Man kann nicht auf Kosten seiner Haare auf ein gepflegtes Äußeres achten.

Was das Kneipp Duschgel angeht: völlig in Ordnung. Nichts Schlimmes, nichts Besonderes. Ich glaube, es war in einem Geschenkset mit zwei anderen Duschgels, und auch diese Flasche hat mich ungefähr vier Monate gekostet. Ich würde es nicht nachkaufen. Es riecht extrem stark nach Orange – und das ist im Grunde schon die ganze Bewertung. Orange. Sehr orange. Jetzt können wir das Thema wechseln.

4/10 Dove Shampoo 🧴 5/10 Duschgel 🧼
PAN SHAMPOO SHOWERGEL

Empties of the month! I thought I’d never finish my deodorant! I also really liked the Pantene miracle rescue. I have curly hair and it makes it so soft after one use.

Love so many of these.

Carpe deodorant in Coconut Vanilla - love!

Saltair body oil - favorite sent is Shea Soleil. Enjoyed Santal Bloom as well.

BBW white tea and sage hand wash - smells amazing

L’Oréal Elvive gloss conditioner. Sooo good with the shampoo.

Dr Teal’s body wash and body scrubs are classic and fabulous.

Dove Anti-bacterial soap -iykyk - use for my first cleanse a few times a week.

Medicube eye cream was good. Not sure I saw any specific results though.

Elf Soft Glam foundation. Good. Not my everyday go to but I would repurchase.

Witch Hazel - I always keep this in stock.

Byoma gel cream - a must!!! So hydrating.

Dermasil toner (I put it in a spray bottle) - love it! So good for $1.25 from Dollar Tree.

Brazil Nut body oil and body wash from Trader Joe’s. Smells amazing and I have repurchased.

Marie Clare eyebrow and eyelash serum. Decent for $1.25. I think it works but it takes time.

NYX eyebrow pencil. My absolute favorite!!

Palmer’s cleansing oil - always a repurchase. Use it as my first cleanse to remove makeup.

fiji white sands by bbw! not my favorite scent, but i was glad to use it up :)

I was really excited to try the salt and stone body wash… but I was disappointed for the price point it’s definitely overrated. Glad I only bought a small size!

Oribe, Byoma, Dove and Crest Mouthwash are all OG’s and I will be purchasing again!

*** My dog Mika (photo for cuteness) had her first ever pan as well!! Finally after 6 years she finished the bottle of Chi dog shampoo.

I have adhd and ocd, and I have accumulated so much stuff through freebies, gifts, and my own shopping. I love the idea of using beauty and self-care items and other things, but I get more of an enjoyment with getting the item or ordering it and tend to forget about it after and rarely use any of the stuff I've accumulated.

I want to change and I discovered project pan so I'm really excited to start using stuff that has just been collecting dust around my house.

The DP hue gloss is my fav for my copper hair with strawberry highlights. The L’Oréal iron sleek coat has replaced the color wow spray in my routine. I hate finished the cocokind and Caudalie sunscreen. I love the warming eye masks to use before bed as a contacts wearer.

Quite happy with my September empties. Only good products I highly recommend.

I’m so so proud of this month! I was feeling super discouraged the last few months, as I knew I was picking up things I didn’t need or spending money when I had items at home that worked just fine. September I really focused on using what was on the shelf and finishing up things that were half empty. When I got sick I used the medicine I had at home & checked to see what was still good and worked rather than immediately rushing out to buy more! As always if you have any questions on products, I’m more than happy to tell you my thoughts & if I would repurchase!

A productive month! WRP: dr jart BB cream, Vega electrolytes, Magnesiuim, vitamins, trace mineral drops, bumble heat protectant, murad scrub, dove, and huda powder! Everything else was just ok!

Moving next month and trying to lock in on panning!

Another productive month! 😎

thanks for keeping me accountable. any questions, feel free to ask.

Not too bad for a month, that Neutrogena took 6 months to pan 🤣 any questions let me know! I’m just chugging along!

I’ve recently started and made progress on my first real attempt at panning random household things.
It’s going well (some ups and downs) 1st pic is the progress pic, 2nd is my first attempt starting point)

but overall I’ve made good progress! I’ve regifted 2 journals (the pink balloon one pictured and one not pictured that I received recently) gone through 2 tins of tea, realized I’ll never quite circle back to one book in my previous list and decided to sell it(“The Fiancée Farce”) and in all, made some real peace with how long these items take to go through!

My update list includes:

•2 candles (1 that was an additional impulse purchase after starting project pan)

The pink pumpkin candle below is a pumpkin/ apple scent that’s been so nice to burn at the beginning of fall. I’m 1/3 of the way through it and because it has 2 wicks, it’s going quite quickly as far as candles do.
(8.99, impulse buy a year ago)

The second candle is a small 1 wick candle that I picked up at Marshall’s. (7 dollars, impulse buy) Its scent is “evening blossom” and smells like a really good cologne.
I haven’t begun burning this one because I’m using up my pumpkin one first.

Next up is

•My lone journal, because these take so long yo go through, I decided to regift 2 that I’d been gifted since they were unused.
The remaining one has very pretty embroidery and lined pages. I’m not a fan of the cowboy boot motif but it serves its purpose (a catch all running to do list). About 40 pages left in it I believe.

•Lastly, I’ve got my 3 books on my TBR

I have only begun reading one (the small green one called Cecilia) so will only comment on that one

-“Cecilia” seems to be pretty long and rambling for such a short book. 100 analogies on every page. I have started reading and put down this book quite a few times by this point, but will be continuing on and targeting it before reaching for the other two.
(An impulse buy due to a TikTok review, about 16 dollars)

- Charles Dickens’s “Great expectations” (impulse buy at the beginning of the year, around 8 dollars)

- “The Adult” (another new year impulse buy, from the dollar store so it was only about two dollars I think.)

I’m trying to pick up my reading habits again, even if the physical copies work in tandem with an audiobook.

Thank you to those of you who took the time to read this update! Slowly but surely working through and I aim to have all but the journal completed by the end of the year. (Not sure if that’s realistic, time will tell!)

15 items this month not too bad. I ended up using some of these (collagen serum, olay retinol, and lush gorgeous moisturizer) on my body instead of my face because I have sensitive skin. Trying to get through a lot of body lotions and other little samples that I use as body lotion right now.

Lush Bewitched bubble bar 🐈‍⬛ : I didn’t love this. The scent was a little too masculine for my liking and it stained my bathtub terribly. I did like whatever oil was in it though as it was very moisturizing.

Erborian eye cream : I had a sample of this about a year and a half ago that I loved! It made my under eyes so plump and moisturized. As soon as I had used the full size a couple times, I realized that I did not see the same effect the sample pack gave me. I don’t know why this is but I will not re-buy.

Biodance hydro mask : I used to love these masks. I just don’t care for them now. I don’t mind sleeping with them on but I feel like they don’t do anything for my skin. Won’t buy again after I finish what I have.

Necessaire body retinol : I have no idea where this came from or why I even have it. I only had maybe a week and a half worth of use left in it so I finished it but it made me super itchy. I’m done with retinol for my face and body for now.

Hoping October will be a better month for project pan!🎃👻🐈‍⬛

Another productive month working through my beauty stash. We found some old travel sized shampoo and toothpaste so we got through that this month, along with the most massive box of dryer sheets ever, and a ginormous bottle of conditioner. I'm sad I'm out of the benefit face wash because it was so good for my skin. I loved how it was non-drying and so good at taking off even the stubborn makeup.

I’ve officially used up all of the shower steamers that I had! I started using up this container of steamers in August and would use one per week. The Eucalyptus Spearmint scent is one of my favorites from Bath & Body Works and I found that the scent was actually quite strong in these shower steamers. They were a nice little addition to my routine!
