little white truths

Youtube and the blogosphere are alive at the moment as the panning community rushes to clear out their stores by the end of the year. I've seen countless panning projects on foot - from Finish 12 by Christmas to Finish 17 by 2017 - and while I've decided not to join any of them because I have three panning projects of my own on foot at the moment, I still want to give myself the momentum to reduce my stock so things look less cluttered by 2017.

The three panning projects I'm doing at the moment are Project Pan, Pan that Palette and Project Dent, and while these keep me busy and limit the amount of products in daily use, there's still scope for me - just! - to use other items in the spaces.

Since one of the best ways to keep yourself on track is to make yourself accountable to others, I thought I'd set out what I plan to do by the end of the year. That way I'm more likely to do it! I also thought this post might inspire others in my position (too many panning projects, not enough time) to find ways to clear out a few more items by 2017.

So without further ado, here's my plan:

Clean out the sachets

As you may know, I do a sachets post every month or two - just to make sure that the pile of sachets never gets overwhelming. It's one of those projects that you never quite see the back of, since sachets always somehow seem to turn up, even though I don't actively look out for them.

I've just had a quick look at my stock and there's enough there for two sachets posts, but I'll likely stick to one because the second round comprises mostly base products (like foundation etc) and I would rather keep focusing on my open foundations for Project Dent.

There will also be an additional 'sachets' post dedicated to the truckload of sheet and other masks I recently received from Maslow & Co - items I'll have to make myself use because I don't have much love for sheet masks.

So, I hereby promise to clean out my sachets in November. It won't be easy to squeeze them in because I'm trying to finish full-sized and travel-sized items at the same time, but I'm determined.
