Pan Those Eyeshadow Palettes 2024 - Final Update?

[@freckledklutz]

Your makeup looks stunning. And happy you are making this decision for you as you will get to choose what you want to wear!

[@vickilouise7764]

Thank you so much! :)

[@jenniferkaminski5605]

You have done a fantastic job!! Think about how much you have learned about your own preferences in your makeup!This will save you so much money and time later! Panning is such a learning process! You have accomplished that!! Congratulations!

[@vickilouise7764]

Yes, you're so right! Thank you so much :)

[@Deem57]

For 7 1/2 months you have doggedly tried to pan those eyeshadows. I can't blame you for deciding that you've done enough. I am not at all disappointed. I love your current makeup look and am glad you are enjoying how your makeup looks again.

[@vickilouise7764]

Thank you so much :) That's nice to hear!

What I love about this project (in general) is seeing progress. I find it so fun to watch other people pan a palette as I do offline and get this camaraderie as we all work our way through palettes. Subsequently, I love learning about my palettes. Not just about the colour story, but a more in depth understanding of the palette along with my taste, as you did. I always allow myself to declutter 20% of a palette if I find colours I'll just never wear. As I start working on that palette, if I find I really dislike it, more colours will go and if I end up decluttering half the palette, so be it. I have way too much eyeshadow and enjoy doing my makeup way too much to be unhappy with the outcome. Ever. So declutter if that's where you're at. If you had fun and learned that this palette served its purpose for you faster than you anticipated, then it was a success. Now you know what you like in colours and formula, and you know never to waste your expensive face powder trying to salvage eyeshadow again. I get one less video a month, so sad face there for me, but thank you for the finale at least! I appreciate the closure. 😅

[@vickilouise7764]

Yes I totally agree, I also love seeing the progress! Taking monthly progress pics also helps as sometimes I feel like I haven't made progress, but when I check the photos I have! Completely agree with you as well about your approach to palettes and decluttering. Makeup is there to be enjoyed :)

[@sunnysaz30]

I agree!! You’ve done both these palettes justice. Using things up completely is great, but not if it takes the joy out of using it. You’re so passionate about makeup so using the items that bring you joy seems the best thing to do. The psychology of feeling good versus project pan needs to be a healthy balance 😊 x

[@vickilouise7764]

I completely agree with everything you've said here! Finding that balance is tricky, and as I have a channel I feel accountable for finishing what I said I wanted to achieve. But ultimately makeup has to be fun :)

[@MusingOnBeauty]

Your makeup in this video looks fabulous, you did well in switching to what you wanted, and it shows that you are enjoying it much more! Good decision decluttering the rest, and now you can have fun!

[@vickilouise7764]

Aw thank you so much! Yes, looking forward to enjoying my makeup more now :)

[@AshleyRebecca]

I think you made a good decision. Can’t wait to see the declutter!

[@vickilouise7764]

Thank you, I'm happy with the decision :) Declutter should be coming today!

[@KatariinasVanity]

I'm so glad you made this decision! I have also decided to call of my Pan Those Eyeshadows, I just don't think it's a project that works for me. I'm really picky with the color combinations I do with eyeshadows. I feel pairing random eyeshadows end up looking messy and unintenional more often than not. And I just don't want to force myself to wear makeup I don't enjoy. Can't wait to see your big declutter!

[@vickilouise7764]

I totally agree with you and that's how I felt like my makeup turned out too!

[@kirstenolson776]

I think you did a fantastic job at this pan-that-palette challenge. You used up so much of the product down to the last speck of those colors. The only colors left are the ones you know you don't like, and you gave them more than their fair chance--even trying to give them a second life as cheek products. I'm glad you are enjoying your makeup looks more now that you are using products you enjoy and not just ones that you are making yourself use up. I will miss seeing these updates because you are my favorite project-pan creator on YT, but it is more important for you to enjoy doing your makeup. I do look forward to watching your declutter video and anything else you make!

[@vickilouise7764]

That's so kind of you, thank you! Thanks for watching my videos :)

[@pineapplelumpa]

Makeup is supposed to be fun!!! No one’s holding a gun to ya to do this PP mission 😅 bring back the joy!

[@vickilouise7764]

haha you're right! I just felt like I should continue with it though as it's a series on my channel and people follow along and I don't want it to seem like I was giving up. If I didn't have a channel then it would have been a much easier and quicker decision lol :)

[@anaclarafranco1988]

Don’t feel bad for ending this project sooner, there is no need to force yourself to use eyeshadows you don’t enjoy. I started to declutter the dark eyeshadows from all my palettes and keep just the ones I use regularly.

[@vickilouise7764]

I know, I just didn't want it to seem like I was giving up. :)

[@nomegirl907]

I’ve decided to not force myself to use make up that doesn’t look right on me, I want to enjoy putting on make up too. You’ve done an amazing job using a lot of the products up 🌻 🎉.

[@vickilouise7764]

Thank you! This is so true, makeup is there to be enjoyed :)

[@dianaholbrook]

Your makeup in this video looks so fresh and bright (in a good way)! BTW I had my House of Colour appointment and am a Blue Spring ( I had previously been thinking I was a soft autumn 😂) and I am a Natural Gamine. I think that answers quite a few questions because I have always been trying to make myself into a classic… Anyway I have a lot to think about and sort out!

[@vickilouise7764]

Thank you! I've really been enjoying this lipstick recently :) Oh yay blue spring! How exciting :) Great that you had both style and colours done, thanks for keeping me updated!

[@annaheartmakeup]

Enjoying your makeup is the most important thing, so I'm glad you decided to toss it and use the things you want to use!

[@vickilouise7764]

Absolutely, it's gotta be enjoyable :)

[@helenskibinski9742]

You're right, make up should be fun and you definitely got good use out of both palettes. I think pan that palette only works if you want to get more use out of a palette you love and want to use all of the shades but it is getting old and you want to get more use before it goes off. Looking forward to the declutter.

[@vickilouise7764]

Yup I agree with you! I got my money's worth and I just don't wanna use it anymore :)

[@_dewinther]

You did a great decision Thanks for the update 💖💖💖

[@vickilouise7764]

Thank you! 🤗

[@historianlaura]

Your make up is looking so good in this video. Life is too short to hate pan! Yay 🎉! I have focused certain palettes this year but once I have meet goals on it I am decluttering them - 3 done so far this year moving forward only several one and done singles or a well curated quod. Great decision well done!

[@vickilouise7764]

Oh thank you :) You're making great progress this year with those palettes! Also agree about hate panning!

[@bansheemuse4794]

I believe makeup should be fun and if you are not happy then you are doing the right thing. You did very well and have fun with makeup. I am on my 3rd Modern Rennissance palette, it is probably my all time favorite one. The first one I used to death and replaced it, the second one I used up so many shades I put other eyeshadows in it, but missed the shades I used up and now I am on my 3rd one. I have light skin, but darker features, so the darker shades I love. You just should use what you love.

[@vickilouise7764]

I agree, it should be fun :) Oh wow you must really love that palette! It's great when you find makeup that you really love to use :)

[@ОльгаДорогомилова]

Oh I definitely will miss your Pan That Palette series :( But, as you said, it's YOUR makeup collection and you should only do what makes you happy, so congrats on turning this page and starting a new happier one🥳😊 P.S. Just a quick single eyeshadow suggestion - try Slow Fast Slow by MAC, it's a gorgeous muted rose gold shade, perfect for Autumns😊

[@vickilouise7764]

Thank you :) I've had a look at swatches and that MAC shade looks beautiful!

[@annao5796]

Great decision! No point in wearing makeup that frustrates you. Makeup is supposed to be fun and make you feel good not add to lifes struggles.😀

[@vickilouise7764]

I totally agree with you :)

[@mymakeupnonsense]

I’ve stopped panning eyeshadows and started decluttering instead for that same reason. Makeup shouldn’t feel like a chore and result in you not liking the final look. Besides, those ABH eyeshadows were getting rusty anyways. Probably for the best :)

[@vickilouise7764]

Thank you :) Sounds like that's a very sensible decision for you to make! Like you say, it shouldn't be a chore.

[@ecem5163]

Realy hard to using eyeshadow as blush. Its so pigmented and not blending well . Hate pan is really annoying this to do .If u dont like them just dont use them Vicki.❤❤

[@vickilouise7764]

It really is! I won't do that again, if it doesn't work as eyeshadow then using it as blush certainly won't work lol. :)

[@diannemaebangoy5141]

Love the necklace! Looks so chic 🤩 What is it called?
