And the photos:

The hourglass foundation stick, you can see that I only managed to use the tiniest bit. To be honest, I am using this more like a concealer, in the sense that I am using it under foundation to cover redness. I can then use less of an appropriately colored foundation. But, while I thought I was done with the UD foundation last month, it still squirted out enough foundation for another week. Ugh. Then, I had vacation, so I wore less makeup in general. So, it’s slow going right now. I am hoping to see more progress next month.

The maybelline age rewind concealer, I really thought I’d be done with this. But, it looks like Miss Butterfly isn’t using it much right now. I will certainly be done next month. I’ll be replacing that item with another concealer item.

I am completely done with the wet n wild contour palette. And, to be honest, I was so used to using the same palette I am struggling to adjust to a new powder. What I am trying to use now applies with a heavier hand and it’s not as easy to blend. I’ve got a whole new learning curve ahead of me.

I had 3 pans of my frankenhighligter. I didn’t pull out all 3 pans, just the one pan that has had use. And as you can see, it’s quite a lot of use.

I am plugging away at the perfume, slowly, though my previous marks had worn off the bottle. My goal is to use half of this, and it’s old so I can apply quite liberally and not be even remotely overwhelming. I’ve got a back up at work that is much newer and that one only needs one spray to get an even more powerful scent.

I finished the Deva Curl shampoo this month. There’s not much I can say about that except it’s done.

The clinique eyeshadow I am using as a base has major pan, so that’s good. I am sometimes also using this as a transition shade if I can’t be bothered with anything else.

The Becca Undereye Primer is gone. I’ll use the container to hold a milk makeup undereye cream sample until that’s gone. I don’t think I’ll repurchase the becca product right now, I am going to wait and see if I like something else better.

Mary Kay satin hands-I did get some of the hand softener used, but there’s no discernable use on the exfoliating product associated with the set. So, I didn’t even bring it out for a photo. I do think I’ll be done with the hand softener at next update.

So, where does this leave me? 3 products used up, so 3 more can be rolled in.

There’s a Laura Mercier cream stick eyeshadow that barely shows up on my eyes and Miss Butterfly doesn’t like it either. I am ready to get this out of my stash, and my intention is to do so by using it as a primer. I gave it a try this morning and it seems to work.

Then there’s the clinique setting powder I tried to pan over the summer. I am trying again. As you can see I am about halfway through now, and not simultaneously trying to pan a powder in a contour palette. So I think between me and Miss Butterfly we can work our way through this pretty quickly.

And then there’s a tarte blush sample in Paaarty. Everyone has one of these. It’s a lovely color. And a lovely formula. No one is upset about this blush. Miss Butterfly and I both use it and it looks great on both of us. I can see the ring on the pan now, so my plan is to use it until I hit pan, then roll something else in.

It’s interesting to see over time that I use up about 3 products in my project pan each month. This upcoming month my prediction is the concealer, the clinique eyeshadow, and the satin hands softener.

My list for the upcoming month:

1.  Foundations
   1. Hourglass vanish stick
2. Concealers
   1. Maybelline age rewind
3. Blush
   1. Tarte Paaarty
4. Highlighter
   1. Frankenhighlighter
5. Perfume
   1. Gucci Eau de parfum II (Get halfway through this product)
6.  Powder
   1. Clinique setting powder
7. Eyeshadow
   1. One pan of clinique eyeshadow.
8. Miscellaneous items
   1. Laura Mercier stick eyeshadow
9. Body Care
   1. Mary Kay Satin Hands

And that’s all from me, hope to see you here next month!
