Project 10 Pan - Update 1

Well, It's been one week since I started my Project 10 pan! So far so good, on that front. Not everything has visible progress, but I promise I've been on top of it!

1. Love & Beauty (by Forever 21) Sheer Lip Color (there is no shade on it)
9-10-14                                                                           9-17-14
Amount Left: Still Practically all of it
Use: I have been using this everyday as a lip conditioner and/or lip primer. It has gone down a little, but not a lot. The side is messed up from where the product isn't centered in the packaging, so it hits the plastic rim. I'm going to use the cap to mark where I am this week, so that hopefully I can see my progress better next week.
Opinion: My opinion hasn't changed really. I so like the formula, it makes my lips smooth and silky. It works well for what I'm doing with it.

2. L'Oreal True Match Blush in Baby Blossom
9-10-14                                              9-17-14
Amount Left: The pan showing has grown, but there's still a lot of product left in this blush.
Use: I've been applying this everyday with my Sonia Kashuk no. 29 brush. I mostly place this on the back of my cheeks and lightly on the bottom half of my apples.
Opinion: I love how quick and easy this is to apply. I feel like I've re-fallen in love with it. It such a nice natural pink. It's also pigmented enough so I'm not applying tons of product so it'll show up. But it not too pigmented so that I have to be careful of "blush-face" when applying.

3. Therapy Systems Perfect Concealer in the shade 2
9-10-14                                              9-17-14
Amount Left: A little more than half. I can see about half the pan, plus there's a significant dip in the middle of the other side.
Use: I'm using this everyday as both my under-eye concealer and my blemish concealer. I aplly this on my blemish with clean fingertips and my under-eye area with a Sonia Kashuk no. 110 brush (just a regular concealer brush).
Opinion: I really don't like this concealer. I find it to be too slippery; it moves and/or dissipates quickly. It also creases within about 30 minutes of wearing it under my eyes. I'm just ready to be done with it.

4. Benefit's "It's Potent!" Eye Cream
9-10-14                                                          9-17-14
Amount Left: Probably around the same as last time (3/4 of the container). I took a different angle so that you could see the dip I have in the middle.
Use: I apply this under my eyes every night after I wash my face. On occasion, I used this in the morning as well.
Opinion: I'm still enjoying this eye cream. No noticeable changes to my eye bags yet, but hopefully in the next few weeks there will be!

5. Lorac's Breakthrough Performance Foundation in Shade "SMS 1" 
09-10-14                                              09-16-14 (FINISHED)
Amount Left: FINISHED 09-16-14
Even though the picture shows a little product left, the bottle won't pump any more product out.
Use: I applied this everyday until it was gone with either my beauty blender or a standard foundation brush.
Opinion: I love this foundation. It evens out my skin tone perfectly and feels like nothing when its on. I don't normally go for a dewy finish, but I could powder it and be okay. I believe once I go through the rest of my foundations, it may be a contender for a re-purchase.

6. Maybelline  Color Sensational Lipcolor in "Born With It"
09-10-14                                                09-17-14
Amount Left: About 1/4 of the tube
Use: I have been applying and reapplying this everyday with Bath & Body Works Honey Sweetheart Lipgloss (number 9 of my project 10 pan). With this lipgloss on top, the shimmer flecks don't sit as weird on my lips. It actually creates a very nice nude pink. This combination has made wearing this lipstick a new favorite (which is good because I really need to finish it!).
Opinion: I really enjoy the color, however, on it's own this lipstick has chunky glitter/frosty aspects to it (I can feel the shimmer as I apply this lipstick). When I pair it with a lipgloss I do really enjoy it. I'm considering re-purchasing this, but I've got to use more of the lipsticks and lip crayons I have first.

7. MAC's Zoom Fast Black Lash 
Amount Left: I have absolutely no idea, still. (No point in showing an updated picture as you can't see a difference.)
Use: I apply 2 coats of this to my lashes everyday.
Opinion: Using this frequently after trying out some different mascaras just makes me love this product more. It's so black and gives me noticeably longer thicker and fuller lashes. It also curls my lashes and holds them there all day. I seriously love this mascara and once I've used up my others that are opened (And this gone) I'm going to get another one!

8. L'Oreal Lineur Intense in Carbon Black  
Amount Left: Absolutely no idea. (Same as my mascara, another picture would be useless here).
Use: I apply a thin line along my upper lash line and wing it out ever-so-slightly at the very base.
Opinion: I don't know why, but going back to this has been so enjoyable. I love the sharp small winged look I can create with this product. Winged liner is hard for my eyes because I have a very prominent crease that goes down almost as far as my eye does. With this liner I am able to go just below the crease and make a thin wing that looks so beautiful! Maybe I'll have to switch back to liquid liner after using this!

9. Bath & Body Works' Honey Sweetheart Lip Gloss 
9-10-14                                        9-17-14
Amount Left: About 3/4 to go! (I marked where I was last week and this week with a sharpie)
Use: I use this everyday on top of my Maybelline lipstick in "Born With It". This smooths out the lipstick and provides a wonderful sheen to my lips. It also smells/taste nice. (My fiance loves when I wear this gloss)
Opinion: I'm going to miss this lipgloss like crazy once it's gone. I feel like it makes any lipstick look fantastic. Plus I am in love with the smell of this!

10. Bath & Body Works' Travel-sized Body Lotion in Beautiful Day 
9-10-14                                                  9-17-14
Amount Left: Just a little bit at the bottom (I was so amazed by this progress! The black line on the more recent picture is where I was last week.)
Use: I have been applying this to my arms and legs every night before I go to bed.
Opinion: I really enjoy this scent and formula. However, I probably wont buy any more lotions for a while because I have way too many right now. (This spot will replaced with another lotion after I'm done with this one)

This is all for my update now. I'm glad I can see progress in most of the items! I'll post another update in a week!
