The 10 Pan challenge

Dearest friends,

I am now starting on a 10 pan challenge. I buy alot of things. In particular, pens and make-up. For a while now, the pens have stacked up to large collections, and different make-up has been sitting there collecting dust.

what is a 10 pan challenge?

Well, you pick out 10 things that you will use until it finishes. Now for me that is going to be hard, I hardly ever finish a pen, because either I lose it or I move on to more interesting ones, likewise with makeup. Makeup has expiry dates, therefore the accural has resulted in major wastage. The 10 things I have chosen, I have already used, but this challenge will ensure that I finish it.

Aim: To minimise wasting products and to save money by not purchasing similar products.

Why don't you stop buying crap, you may ask. Well, I can't help it. I am constantly drawn to trying out new products.

To make sure that I don't cheat, I have posted the items.


Here is the list and how much is left:
1. Loreal True match powder -40%
2. Lucas Papaw ointment -30%
3. Clinique Gloss wear - air kiss - 20%
4. Clinique dewy smooth foundation - 20%
5. Rimmel - Fix & Perfect primer - 90%
6. Maybelline - chocolate mousse eye shadow quad - 90%
7. Prestige- black eyeliner - 50%
8. Maybelline - Telescopic mascara - 50%
9. Bourjois blush - 90% left
10. Pilot blue pen - 30% left

I will keep you updated on my progress. It might take me a while, given I rarely wear makeup to university. Also, if you need any reviews or suggestion on makeup. ASK!

Now, I also challenge you to pick 10 things that you use and make sure you finish it to it's last drop. It doesn't have to be makeup, but it can't be food. Especially for those of you who are constantly buying the same type of products, but rarely finishing it. This will bring you self-fulfilment!

XO!

Interesting. I can't think of anything else expendable that I wouldn't use to the end apart from pens, and with pens I still keep them, I just don't use them that much.
