Considering you don't we...Keep it going Monika! Considering you don't wear makeup every day I'd say this is a MONUMENTAL effort! I'd like to do a 'project make a dent' myself - I'm forever setting little challenges for myself to get more wear out of things and this sounds like a great idea. At the moment my latest makeup 'game' is wearing a different eye shadow palette each week (for the entire week) to get more wear out of them and figure out exactly which are my favourites :-)Vitahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09731169396195526314noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7589727970044632991.post-69284825309371792682015-04-10T11:59:27.604-04:002015-04-10T11:59:27.604-04:00Looks like definite progress to me...and a bigger ...Looks like definite progress to me...and a bigger dent is still better than before!! I think cream shadows in general area really hard to use up...not that I've ever come remotely close ha ha!! I'm hoping I'll finish up a lipstick, couple of lip balms, a powder and a foundation this year???

That eyeliner sounds horrible - do remember that life is too short to use up crappy products! It's something I have to tell myself more and more often lately, haha. I wish I had made as much progress as you have with this but I didn't mark my products, bugger. I think I've done pretty poorly with the lip products I'm trying to use up (so many fun things in my stash argh!) but I know I've used the foundation lots so I'm focusing on that to make myself feel better, ha!emmabovaryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10639685984279320297noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7589727970044632991.post-87627825016917158692015-04-02T11:03:28.518-04:002015-04-02T11:03:28.518-04:00If it makes you feel any better, I think Color Tat...If it makes you feel any better, I think Color Tattoos are really hard to use up! I've been using Inked in Pink and Barely Branded at least once or twice a week for a year and a half and I've only just hit pan on both of them a few weeks ago. And I use Tough as Taupe every day on my brows and though there's a lot of pan I think it'll stretch to about two years of everyday use! You seem to be doing really well, though - I always envy people who can do projects like this. I think I'd get bored too quickly, I'm in a different makeup mood every day.Clementine / mydarlingclementine.cahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09867565608525797712noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7589727970044632991.post-58200457732945446372015-04-02T06:24:20.950-04:002015-04-02T06:24:20.950-04:00Woo hoo!

I just recently finished up a pen liquid liner and am finishing my second jar of maybelline bad to the bronze!

If not, ...Did your friend bring back your lipstick? If not, can't you just consider it used up? LOL! I haven't really officially picked out a few items to use up, but I've been consciously focusing on face powders lately. I've used up 2 powders and I'm onto a 3rd one. I actually saw some pan action, so before long, I'd have killed it too. Pressed powders are easier to use than loose powders, I find. I still have a huge tub of Chanel Poudre Universelle which I haven't touched much. I'll just deal with the pressed ones first :-) <br />Lily @ChloeAshhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00837768625763845029noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7589727970044632991.post-1714221550942664142015-04-01T19:21:56.430-04:002015-04-01T19:21:56.430-04:00Great idea of keeping the picture similar.

At least that shows I was using it when traveling!<br /><br />I don't know, maybe I have masochistic tendencies, because in the past couple of weeks, I've actually been liking more and more how it looks on the lower lashline, especially on top of that Maybelline Color Tattoo, which gives it a bit more slip. I'll think about that one... I'm hoping UD Rockstar will be gone very shortly anyway - I've actually been trying to use up a rollover UD liner in Whiskey from last year's Project MAD, and once that one is gone (tomorrow maybe? Hurray!), Rockstar will get finished up in no time. I'm debating which liner I should use up next :DAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10222921812909264644noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7589727970044632991.post-74776695379410224062015-04-01T14:02:32.984-04:002015-04-01T14:02:32.984-04:00Hi Lila!

I've used Bad to the Bronze here and there before starting the project so it had a slight dip, but yeah, you're definitely right - I've been using it almost every time I wear make-up now, and I haven't made a lot of progress there. With the brighter lipstick, I've been wearing it a lot just patted lightly on the lips and layered with a lighter lipgloss, but it's pretty as a stain too :) I know what you mean though; I find that I'm not always in the mood for such a bright shade.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10222921812909264644noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7589727970044632991.post-6344133873847103862015-04-01T13:03:15.391-04:002015-04-01T13:03:15.391-04:00Okay, I think that Nano liner is finished!

...I wondered where that elephant had gotten to. :P<br />Can I address something else though? The awful eyeliner. It is painful just reading about it, believe me. Now I seem to remember that you have uneasy feelings about throwing away usable products (and I feel that way myself a lot of the time) but I think there's a line between a product that is usable but "meh" and something that is usable only on the lower lash line because it's far too scratchy AND has poor pigmentation AND not much lasting power. You also mentioned at the starting point that this was about using products you enjoy before they expire (use it or lose it) and since it's quite apparent that this one is not enjoyable in the slightest I think you have every reason to throw that thing away and consider its loss a veritable triumph. Life is too short for truly awful makeup, and if your stash is anything like mine you've surely got another much more enjoyable product to use instead. Or don't sub out and keep on with just Rockstar- another dent is on the horizon! :Drachlovespenguinshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07586017212990636816noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7589727970044632991.post-8816086019738548252015-04-01T12:35:38.808-04:002015-04-01T12:35:38.808-04:00Wow, you're doing well.

I always thought cream eyeshadows are hard to empty. Any idea how to wear more bright lipstick shades? I got some of them but I don't know where and when to use.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
