Love Letters and Lace

Hey everyone! So for 2020, I wanted to set myself some New Year's resolutions, as I always do, and one of them is definitely to focus on using up the makeup I currently have rather than buying more products! So to keep myself accountable, I decided to pick a selection of products for a Project Pan! Here are the products I want to either completely finish up by the end of 2020 or at the very least make a significant dent in them: So firstly I really want to make more of a dent in my Too Faced Sweet Peach palette! I've already hit pan on 5 shades so far but considering how much I was dying for this palette when it first came out, I'd love to use it up more! I definitely don't think I'll finish up the whole palette by the end of the year (I rarely use dark eye shadow colours so those deeper shades at the end will definitely not get that much use), but I'd love to use up more of it! The next product that I'd ideally like to finish is the Clarins

 Hey everyone! So here is my update on my winter project pan! So: I completely finished the Covergirl Ready Set Gorgeous Foundation and the Benefit Porefessional primer which I'm really happy about. The Maybelline Fit Me concealer seems to be one of those products that never ends! I use it on the daily and it just never seems to run out! I do think I'm on the last few drops of it now though.  I'm really happy with the progress I made on the Maybelline Blushed Nudes palette . While it doesnt look like much, I managed to hit pan on 2 more shades, which I think is pretty good. Forcing myself to use it more often also made me love it a lot more. This palette doesn't have the best reviews and I really don't know why because I really do think it's a great one overall. One product it seemed really hard for me to make progress on was the Marcelle Kohl eyeliner , even though I was using it frequently and sharpening it as well. I realized pretty soon after

If there's something I learned from my no-buy back in the Fall, it's that I really do have a LOT of makeup, a lot of it that has been sitting around, unused or half used and forgotten. That's why I decided I'm going to start my own Project Pan, to use up some of the products that need some loving/need to go. So from now until March 20th, 2017, I'm going to be working on finishing up these products! The products: Maybelline 'The Blushed Nudes' palette Benefit 'The Porefessional' Primer Marcelle Kohl Eyeliner Maybelline 'Fit Me' Concealer Covergirl 'Ready Set Gorgeous' Foundation Nyx Prismatic Eyeshadow in 'Girl Talk' All of these are products that I love, but have either been a bit neglected in my routine, or have just been lingering around for way too long. So I chose them to encourage myself to put them to more use. As you can see, I've already made a significant dent in this palette. My goal is to hit p

About a year ago, I was on the hunt for a new Micellar water and picked up one from Marcelle on a whim. Since then, Marcelle has become one of my favourite brands for both skincare and makeup. The more I've been looking into this brand, the more I want to try from them. Their products are not tested on animals, are perfume free and hypoallergenic, which is a huge plus for someone like me, who has sensitive skin. They're also a Canadian brand, so they're fairly accessible at the drugstore here in Canada. These are the products from Marcelle that I use the most (even though there are still a lot of things I haven't tried yet but I'm looking forward to!) Rouge Xpression Lipstick I own 2 of these lipsticks and I'm dying to buy some more. They're extremely pigmented and long lasting, but also feel so hydrating on the lips. I feel like the packaging on them isn't the best (it feels a bit cheap), but don't let that deter you! These are fantastic q

Hey everyone! I'm a bit late on my favourites this month (blame school!) but I have a ton of things that I LOVED this month so this will be a long one! If you would like a longer, more in depth review of any of the products I've mentioned, let me know in the comments and I will definitely do one! Makeup: Maybelline Dream Velvet Foundation I've been using the Too Faced 'Born This Way' foundation pretty steadily since the summer so I was looking to try something new this month and I found a great one. This foundation has the nicest texture and gives incredible coverage. The staying power is also pretty great for a drugstore foundation.   Nyx High Voltage Lipsticks These lipsticks are so incredible that I've gone back to purchase more about 3 times. I own around 6 of them now and I'm so in love with them. They do everything you want from a lipstick: they're creamy and hydrating, they have a great lasting power and the best thing about them

Hey everyone! I did a bit of makeup shopping at the drugstore today and I thought it'd be fun to share my purchases with you all!

Secondly, this may not be the most interesting haul in the world (1. I'm on a budget and 2. I mainly focused on eye and lip products) but I'm so excited with my new purchases!!!
