Day 9 of detox, a few random things

Detox update - Day 9:
Didn't buy anything. :) I did get my Sephora order in, and the sunblock stash is fun! I also like the Sin shadow pencil, but not for the reasons I'd thought - turns out it does crease on me without a primer. But! It's perfect for the lower lashline - wakes the whole area right up. They did forget to put my birthday gift in there, so I have to go to Sephora soon and pick that up. Maybe if I leave my money at home, I'll walk out with only the gift and some free samples.


Project Use It:
I also decided to restart my lip and eye product Project Pans, see if I can use up five more lip products and eight more eye products. I have too many baggies of stuff - and they need to be gone!

This week, I used up:
Liza's Lotions Luscious Lip Balm - Not my favorite lip balm ever, but it didn't cause me any problems. And I did use it up. :)

Aromaleigh planetearth (cool bright turquoise blue with tiny pink sparkles). I might end up missing this one a little, but I have about three more bright turquoises, so it's ok.

Upcoming contest:
I need two more followers!!!


Revised shopping list:

I've since decided to scale back my SoBe order, am still planning on a Shiro haul at the end of the no buy, and am thinking about another Morgana Cryptoria order and a small Darling Girl order. After I use up a specified amount of Fyrinnae stuff, I'm reordering some favorite colors. I should * crosses fingers * FINALLY have a decent job come August, so that will make ordering easier. I also want to make another SN order around June (when I'll need more Vitamin C Serum - I think it's been helping!) and will want to try out some of the newer stuff then.

Another Used it! (and introducing a few project pans)

I used up five more things - most of them samples, but it's still good!

SN Trouble shadow sample baggie - beige pink shimmer. Not bad for a lid color, but I'm usually more into brown or taupe than brownish pink. Too dark for a highlight.

SN Go shadow sample baggie - slightly bluish green. Marketed as being the color of a green traffic light - I don't think it's that bright, but I do like it. I'm seriously considering getting this in full size.

SN Guava blush sample. I liked this, but I'm not sure I like it better than adorned with Grace Beautiful, which I already have in full size. The awG is less shimmery for sure (by a lot) but the colors are pretty similar. I might get it anyway, though, because the formula is fairly goof proof.

Neutrogena Sensitive Skin SPF 30 sunblock. Full size! Disclosure - I used this up as a shaving lotion, because it expired this January and otherwise I wasn't going to use this up. I like that this was a physical blocker, but don't like how white it made me or its texture.

Giovanni Hydrate body lotion travel size tube- Grapefruit Sky. I liked it alright. The man did not enjoy the scent. I'm not in love with it enough to smell unappealing.


Also, I've made a few new rules:
No new eyeshadow until I use up 8 of the ones I already have.
No new lip stuff until I use up 5 lip products.

Tally:
