3 weeksProject pan look
My #projectpan #projectpan2024 for November is here 😊✌️ In my look, I have scraped out the tiniest little grain from two of the eyeshadows as best as I can (that's why it's not so pigmented) and I can proudly say that I have really used up the shadows to the last drop ✌️🥰👋 as you can see, it's the shadow from the sun kissed palette that has been completely used up, let's see how I do, I think the palette is a liiitle hard to use without a dark shadow left🤔 I never finished my brow soap, it got too gross 😂😆 but now I have a kind of wax from Technic that seems to work okay😊 my light kajal and my concealer I have used poorly... It's hard when you have other favorites...😆 but I will try to use them up before the year is over (if that's even possible?!🤪) my face palette from Idun is steadily getting more pan in it, it really takes time with the blush. I don't use highlighter anymore and have almost never used bronzer so I probably didn't need the whole palette 😂🤪 Do you have any makeup projects going on? Hugs dear Lykosianers ❤️👽👾+1

Even though I finally got my empties done on time for once, I didn’t get my butt in gear until now, 2 weeks later😩😤 FIRST UP ARE MY 🙌FAVORITES🙌 THAT I’VE REVIEWED MOST OF WHAT’S AVAILABLE ON LYKO SO I WON’T LIST EVERYTHING: 🙌Kocostar Bakuchiol sheet mask. 🙌Avant sheet mask with lovely nourishing rose🌹☺️ Got it in some box and wanted to buy another but fainted when I saw the price😱 - like 200 kr + shipping from the UK😳 🙌Dermosil Vitamin Treatment - good hair mask! 🙌Bubble T eye masks - the blue and the gold one were good 🙌Amika Perk up dry shampoo - mild and nicely scented and removed the greasiness in a good way. 🙌Heartfelt melon-scented🍈 salt spray. 🙌Mádara Botanic Retinol - lovely Bakuchiol serum. Already bought a full size☺️ 🙌Frudia hand cream with peach🍑 Contains silicone which I don’t like since it doesn’t do any good for the skin other than temporarily, but still the cream was very nice😋 OK😐 😐Bubble T pink eye mask - worse than the others. 😐Tolpha micellar water - a bit too strong rose scent and not so good. 😐Yves Rochers cooling Detox shampoo I’ve had before in the summer for my sweaty, oily scalp, but now they changed the formula so it wasn’t as good or nice at all. 😐Skincity Daily defense spf 50 - unfragranced day cream with spf 50. Meh. 😐Ion silver silver cerate. Sisådär and one day it suddenly went rancid😤 probably because it was too warm where it was near the window. 🛑NO - NOT FOR ME🛑 🛑Sans Soucis Illuminating Pearl ampoules. A bit too strong perfume, Contains mica which I think belongs in makeup, and I got tiny bumps on my nose from them😤 Can’t remember why I bought them🤔😅 🛑Mediheals sheet mask Acaiberry - did zero good. 🛑Biodroga 5% peptide serum smelled SO bad: like rancid, smoked fish🐟🤢 Must have been something wrong with it because if it’s supposed to smell like that, WHO would want to buy it???😅 It was unusually little trash for me in October, but it’s still always (too) much! Thanks to Malin Malinadenfina who kicked off #empties and #projectpan here on Social for some issues so we beauty hoarders get a constant reminder of our consumption🗑️🤦♀️🤦♀️🤦♀️but can also make sure we use up what we already have instead of (constantly) buying new🤔 Healthy but hard😃 #empties2024 october25 likes1100 viewsCecilia

My #projectpan is just like my #empties project inspired by Malin/Malinadenfina, who was the one who started it a few years ago here on Lyko Social😊 All to make sure we beauty hoarders try to use what we already have instead of constantly buying new! It’s a true challenge and goes so-so😬😅 I have quite a bit of makeup but can due to weak, easily fatigued muscles (due to the illness ME) rarely do my makeup. In other words, my makeup lasts forever! Some of what I’ve photographed here is almost finished, the oldest product I THINK is from 2018, the rest a tad newer😄 At the same time as I buy quite a bit of makeup, I’m also stingy🤑 and would literally like to dig out every single product☺️ These products belong to my constant favorites, and several are no longer available in Sweden. Super high quality on all - they all smell as fresh as when I opened them, and all work perfectly, but some are starting to look a tad grimy upon closer inspection (the lipstick💄)🤔 It’s tricky that they’ve lasted so long! 👋Isadora "Perfect Contour Kajal waterproof" in "Steel Grey 39" - best eyeliner pencil so far👋🏽 SUPER CUTE, matte dark gray shade that stays put like a rock😄 Just this specimen is now in its second year. 👋Lumene "Extreme curl and impressive length" gives oddly enough zero curl despite the name but ENORMOUS length! With Jane Iredale’s mascara primer underneath, it’s practically waterproof. It’s several years old but just as good (no, I really don’t change mascara every three months😂).👋 👋100% pure is the American eco-friendly brand that uses fruit pigments in its makeup with excellent results. "Fruit Pigmented Lip Glaze" in "Peach Bellini" is a long, glossy lipstick💄 that I’ve worked on previously and now almost all summer. A bit too light, warm shade, but with different lip liners, I’ve made it darker and cooler😊 When the stick was finished, I started using a lip brush to dig out the tube. I measured with a toothpick, and there was over 2 cm of lipstick left down there😱🤑 Now there’s soon only 1/2 cm left... Out by Christmas, maybe??? 👋100% pure "Fruit Pigmented Lip & Cheek Tint" in "Shimmery Strawberry" really smells of strawberry pigment and is such a pretty and delicious cream blush in cool pale pink😍 The shade fits my cheeks perfectly but is too pale for my lips (though I’ve never been able to use the same product on both places😄). Hoping to finish it this year🎈👋 👋Hourglass "Voyeur waterproof gel eyeliner" in "Cave", a dark brown eyeliner that isn’t too warm. Won a competition and is very good, but I don’t like brown on me as I have many cool🧊 colors, so I’m kind of stuck😄 I’ve forced myself to use it about 4 times this year. It will last until it goes bad! 👋British Lily Lolos mineral makeup is SO underrated and unknown in Sweden. Such a shame, because it’s organic, now vegan, of course cruelty-free, made in the UK, and designed for sensitive skin👋🏽 I’ve had and still have many of their products! One favorite is the chocolate-flavored🍫 lip gloss😍 just as good as it is good! The favorite is the cool bright pink "Bitten Pink", but "English Rose", which on me becomes almost invisible (it’s pale pink), I use as a balm to get a nice shine. I’ve had so many exes of both, but this is probably in its second or third year😬 Soon finished! The only product of these that is available on Lyko😊 (which unfortunately has removed almost everything from the brand👎).👋 👋Lily Lolos eyeshadow palette in "Sweet Nothings" where I’ve used the lightest and coolest shimmer shades. I would like to move two of the mattes to an empty palette, but the small metal boxes seem to be glued into the plastic palette with super glue😕 I’ll probably have to throw it away and start over with the next ex (yes, I have two because I’ve had two at home for many years). Keeping my fingers crossed that the energy lasts for a few more makeup looks than usual in Nov-Dec so that these run out! I have a lot of other stuff on hand🎁💄💋☺️ Maybe I should add that I throw away anything that starts to smell/behave badly immediately! #projectpan202422 likes1174 viewsCecilia

Just a liiitle late, here comes my #empties2024 for September🍂😊 Here are some of my FAVORITES that I often buy or will buy again🙂 The rest can be seen in the pictures! I've reviewed a lot, if it's available on Lyko: 🌟Omniblondes detox and silver shampoo! Super good, both, but unfortunately discontinued now on Lyko (why???)😤 🌟Benton Fermentation sheet mask that takes care of my dry, sensitive skin and any skin problems in a fantastic way🤝🏻 🌟Banila nourishing cleansing balm - very good cleansing for dry skin in balm form. Second and last jar for me, as the brand unfortunately is not Cruelty Free🙅♀️, so there will be no more purchases (found this in one of my skincare hiding spots😩, so I must have bought it before I knew Banila wasn't cf😢). I now have an unscented one from Paula's Choice that is great AND cf👍😄 🌟Mesoestetic Couperend cream - repairing cream that is perfect for skin that has or easily gets broken capillaries. 🌟Dr. Ceuracle Tea tree Purfine cleansing foam - super light foaming cleanser that I've sometimes had as a second cleanser. Worked well even though I don't like tea tree, which is often too strong for dry skin, but I've mostly had it in the summer when I sweat a lot on my face or in the shower when I couldn't be bothered to do double cleansing. 🌟Hyggee Vegan sun cream SPF 50 - perfect! 🌟Melvita Dentifice dents blanche - fresh, mild toothpaste with sea salt, baking soda, and calcium carbonate🦷 🌟Il Capitano Sensitive toothpaste - mild fluoride toothpaste that DOES NOT dry out the lips👍🏻 🌟Ren Skincare Brightening Dark circle eye cream - will be repurchased next summer😊 🌟NCLA Beauty Candy Cane Body Butter - thick and delicious body butter with a cooling peppermint scent, lovely in the summer😋 🌟Maria Åkerberg "Face Dream" - one of my favorite creams that also repairs and protects dry skin with broken capillaries. The big tube comes out when the real cold comes🙂 🌟Maria Åkerberg "Hand Cream" - super light hand cream that also repairs cracked eczema lips and is gentle all over the body including the face👍🏻 🌟Forever Living "Aloe lip" - very good lip balm. 😉OK, BUT MAYBE WON'T BUY AGAIN😉 😉NCLA Beauty "Hey Sugar" body scrub with peppermint scent. Not as good as the body butter but totally okay. 😉Essence eye masks that are sometimes good, sometimes so-so, and sometimes worthless. These from the "Love, luck and dragons" collection are so-so and a bit too dry. Neal's Yard Wild rose Shower oil suited me much better as a foot bath🛁🛁 than as a body wash😊 🤴SAMPLES THAT DETERRED FROM PURCHASE🤴 🤴Dermosil's perfume samples 4 pcs, where 2 attracted, one really deterred😤 and one nothing😁 (It was "Sparkling Grapefruit" that attracted - so light and fresh☀️). Dermosil's perfumes are water-based, so a bit gentler for those with sensitive noses and asthma👍🏻 🤴🛑Medik8 "Advanced night cream. Good thing it was a small sample😃 🤴🛑Laneige "Water bank blue hyaluronic cream moisturizer". Highly unimpressive👎 🤴🛑Laneige "Bouncy & Firm sleeping mask". Same there + very strong scent that my head didn't appreciate! That was September's #empties2024 ☺️ Big thanks to Malin/Malinadenfina who started this and #projectpan here on Lyko social a few years ago so we beauty hoarders could be inspired to use up what we already have, sometimes in new, creative ways😅 instead of immediately buying new🤴🤴🤴🙂 🛑 #empties2024 september20 likes6137 viewsMalinadenfina

This month has been characterized by quite little makeup. I've needed a lot of coffee this month, and I really have two very obvious bags under my eyes😫☕😰😩 but that's life, the energy goes up and down😆 it's nice not to focus so much on mascara, I think, I've just taken a little eyeshadow to define the eyes, and then you can rub your eyes (or cry) as much as you want without becoming a panda. Then I used YSL concealer (it's actually fantastic) to look a bit more awake, and a nice gloss on the lips, then I'm done ☺️🍂 Project pan: I've almost COMPLETELY used up an eyeshadow, 🤳🤳🤳 feels so crazy because how often do you actually do that? I have to think about how I do it later, used it as a transition shade and maybe I need to use two palettes to complement my current one 🤔 My brown eyeliner actually had to go to better needs😆 it can't be sharpened anymore, the stub is too small, but that's how it was at work, a patient who needed help measuring their leg swelling, and I gladly lent it out, so it got a last worthy ending before it was thrown away😁✨👋 no empties are coming this month because I haven't used anything up😏 hope you are doing well there in the autumn weather, hugs🍤🍁❤️ #projectpan #projectpan2024+1

Here are my #empties2024 for August! As usual, most of it has been reviewed by me of what can be bought at Lyko😊 🤩FAVORITES🌟🤩 Mentioning a few, the rest can be seen in the photo (and I’ve probably mentioned them before)! 🌟SNP Peptaronic sheet mask with different types of peptides and hyaluronic acids - superb for dry skin! 🌟Shangpree Gold Black Pearl eye mask must be the best eye mask in sheet mask form for puffy eyes! And the most expensive💸😫👋 🌟Korres gel mask with cucumber also reduces swelling well and at a much milder price🤱 🌟Pai Skincare Light Work Rosehip fruit extract cleansing oil is a luxurious organic really good, light cleansing oil with rosehip seed oil that has good anti-aging properties🌸👋 Got it in a box😋 Just a shame that Pai doesn’t seem to be sold in Sweden anymore😥 🌟Klairs deeply moisturizing and treatment gel cream/mask with vitamin E and niacinamide is so good even for us with dry, slightly sensitive skin that may not handle pure niacinamide so well😊 Very good for giving smaller and cleaner pores and reducing pigmentation👩🎤🏳️🌈 🌟Dr. Ceuracle Cica Regen Vegan Sun spf 50 contains among other things niacinamide but is a mild, non-waterproof sunscreen/face cream that my skin loved this summer! Very good if you sweat like I do in the face from the heat, as it also mattifies the skin😋 🌟Comfort Zone Sun Soul Face cream - wonderful unperfumed sunscreen WITHOUT niacinamide so I could use it on my neck and décolleté without problems (where niacinamide gives me eczema)😊 🌟Urtekram Body butter in the scent "Soft Wild Rose" from the series "Dare to dream" is an organic dreamy body cream with a mild, very nice rose-like scent. Very nice for dry skin! 🌟Schmidt's organic stick deodorant in the variant Charcoal & Magnesium is probably the best aluminum-free deodorant for us heavy sweaters😻 Mild, neutral scent👃🏽🏳️🌈 🌟Eco Cosmetics Lip Care - best organic cerate🌸 for dry lips! Contains among other things beeswax, cocoa butter, shea butter, green tea, and vitamin E. Faint honey scent🌍😊 🤔OK BUT PROBABLY WON'T BUY AGAIN🤔 🤔Dermosil's silver balm. Mild from Finnish, allergy-friendly Dermosil but liked the shampoo and the mask better! 🤔Apolosophys eye makeup remover - mild and ok when you don’t wear waterproof makeup😋 🤔Apoliva Sensitive serum - is like a light day cream with niacinamide. Was included in their advent calendar 2023, which was very reasonably priced🤱 🤔Purederm Black Solution eye masks are usually a good budget alternative🤱 to Shangpree's super expensive💸 but these went out in Dec-23 and were therefore heavily discounted. Unfortunately, more than half were half-dried and no longer effective (NOTE! Not bought at Lyko). Right for me😄 🤔Bondi Sands "Sunny Daze SPF 50" was too dark and dry for me but nice on neck and décolleté! 🤔Zoya goes pretty "Rosehip Face balm" is a lovely, fatty organic, vegan face cream with rosehip seed oil. Usually love it, but this batch smelled unusually much like manure😤😳🏳️🌈😅 which unrefined shea butter can do😢 🤔Selfie Project Energy Boosting Eco hydrogel eye pads were nice but nothing more. 🤔Sans Soucis Beauty Elixir 10% Niacinamide serum - sample that lasted for some grams. Quite ok for the face. 🚫NO - NOT FOR ME🚫 🚫Ida Warg "Intense Nutrition hand cream" gave ZERO nourishment but caused migraines and asthma due to the smell for my husband and me. Thanks once again to Malin/Malinadenfina who started #empties and #projectpan here on Lyko social a few years ago so that we beauty hoarders are encouraged to use what we already have before we buy new. It works sometimes😉 #empties2024 August24 likes7135 viewsMalinadenfina
2 monthsAha yes, there’s always something that’s tricky 😂 I don’t have much for an empties this time, I think, I’ll check it out but I think I’ll have to hope for over a month😅 but I’ve really come a long way with project pan😊👍1 likes

A few weeks ago, #lyko posted an article about the trends for fall, and one of the trends was; no mascara but lipstick 🙈 didn’t know I was ahead of my time with any fashion 😂🙌 I used to almost never wear mascara, and if I did, it didn’t show anyway because my lashes were hopelessly straight 😅😿 so I’m used to trying to rock that look. Actually, so much that I find it harder to see myself with big lashes than to have eyeshadow without the lashes 😅 I was so happy a few years ago when the series "skam" was so popular and Nora had red lips without any other makeup.. so incredibly pretty 😍 so now I’ve dared to find my way back a bit to that style this fall 🌱 what do you think, thumbs up or thumbs down? (About the style, not my appearance of course 😅🙌) Project pan then? Yes, please! Palettes are moving along very well, I even think one of the shadows will be gone by the end of September ☺️👋 the eyeliner is hanging in there, but it’s hard to even grasp the stub now 😅🙌 got a new pan in my face palette with 🙈👋 Anyone else doing project pan and how is it going for you? ☺️ #projectpan2024 #projectpan Hugs 🌱🍀+1
