Pan that Palette (or duo or single)!

One of the recent trends I've enjoyed watching this past year is the panning trend. It's been all over YouTube in the makeup community of people trying to use up their makeup and get their money's worth. A recent trend called Pan that Palette has surfaced this year, where you try to hit pan on every eyeshadow in your palette. So I've decided to commit to panning my palettes, singles, and trios, and will be posting updates every couple of months.

I actually started working on certain eyeshadows back in August. First up, is my Bit of Glam quad by L'Oreal. This came out way back during their Golden Globes collection. My goal was to try to use up the bottom left shade.

Bit of Glam back in August

As of October

The second eyeshadow is from the old Wet N' Wild palette in Paradise Cove. This has since been discontinued. The one shade I love from this palette is the bottom left shade. It is a gorgeous pale pink with a hint of lavender. Beautiful in a neutral or smokey purple look. This shadow has been easy to use up since it isn't as pigmented, and the pans are quite shallow

See how much pan is showing? That's pretty rare!

October 2015 - I was so happy with the progress!

Thirdly is the Annabelle single in Cloud. Longtime viewers of this blog will remember this one being mentioned in previous posts. I bought it several years ago on my birthday, and I have loved this shadow to pieces, as I've used in numerous times for a classic, neutral eye. This shadow is also quite pigmented and nicely packed, so it has taken years to get to this point. Unfortunately, you really can't see the difference too much:

My beloved shadow!

It's really hard to see, squint and spot the difference!

While that doesn't look like much, it's sure come a long way from when I first hit pan on the eyeshadow...

I'm always amazed at how tiny that first bit of pan looks!

I'm excited to keep up with this trend of using up our stash! I'll be back with another update probably by the end of the year!
