I've only seen one of my Youtubers update so far, but the end of the month seems like a good time to add an update. I did swap out one of my products, so there won't be progress to see on that one.
1) Urban Decay lipstick in "Stark Naked" - finished! Once I make it through some other lip products, I would really think about buying this in the new Vice lipstick line.
2) Sephora gel lipliner "rose wine" - I've been wearing this every day that I wear lipstick. It warmed up Stark Naked, and it also goes well with the lipstick I'm currently trying to pan. This might be a bit too dark for year-round use, so I'm working to move this one out of my collection.
3) Givenchy mascara sample - I won't include another picture since the packaging is opaque, but I've been making an effort to use this even on days I'm working. When doing makeup at 6AM, that's a feat, for me.
4) Two BB cream sample jars - I used up the Dr Jart++ dis-a-pore! My friend already destashed her full size to me, so I'll use that for work days once I finish the other sample. I think I have maybe one more use in the Laura Mercier one in "cameo". I don't really like it because it makes my face feel too greasy. (Dr Jart++ on the left, LM on the right)
5) Ole Henriksen sheer transformation moisturizer - finished! I already repurchased when the old packaging (like this one) came to TJ Maxx. I can only really use it as a night moisturizer, since foundation doesn't really go one well over it.
6) Josie Maran finishing balm DS - finished! Honestly, I have no idea wtf this is supposed to be. I just used it as a primer, and it did okay for that. Totally would not repurchase. Finishing balm...I feel like they're just trying to add steps to an already long routine.
7) Nars blush "Goulue" DS - I can't tell if it's even noticeable that I've been using this every day. When applied with a light hand, this is a nice berry color. If applied more heavily, I look more like a drunk clown. I'll keep using it through the end of this project, then move on to my other blushes.
8) Lorac Pro "taupe" - I've been using this as my everyday transition and lower lash line color. I think the dent is getting bigger, but since I'm using both a fluffy brush and a precise skinny brush it's hard to tell progress as well. I've also made quite a bit of progress on "cream" just from using this palette every day.
9) Lorac Pro "espresso" - I've been using this most days. If I'm running behind in the morning, this is the step that gets skipped. The dip looks the same to me, but I'll keep on trucking.
10) Lorac Pro "nude" - This gets used in the inner corner of my eye looks. It looks great over the liner I use there. Like with espresso, I can't see a lot of progress here. This also gets skipped on busy work mornings.
11) Nars Audacious "Mona" - Honestly, I've only worn this one day. I really like it, I've just been wearing other things.
12) Marc Jacobs "Slowburn" DS - I had planned to move onto my Hourglass Lip Stylo, but I wanted to work on a darker color for fall/winter. This has been working well with the lipliner in this project and is overall a nice lipstick.
Total progress so far: 3.5/12 goals hit
I think the next update will be the finale at Christmas. I'm working Christmas itself this year, so my post will be either early or late. Hopefully I'll have some pans to show!
