little white truths

Hello and welcome to my Pan that Palette update for March!

This post was meant to go up yesterday but I ended up leaving it aside because we've had a lot going on at home lately and I needed a break from the computer screen (unusual for me, I know ; )).

And since I'm still feeling that way today, I'm going to make this update as short and direct as possible. For some people that may be a relief from my usual rambling (!), while for others it may be a little boring. Apologies if so.

First up, my Burberry quad:

As you may remember, I've decided not to pan the dusty rose shade because I like it and it's relatively new, so I'll eventually re-press it into a spare pan and add it into one of my custom palettes.

Here's how my quad looked last month:

And here's how it's looking now, after one month of use:

I'm still enjoying panning this as much as before and it's the only item in my challenge that hasn't yet started to bore me. That's Hourglass for you: gosh how I love their powders.

Here's how it looked last month:

And here's how it's looking now:

There's definite movement here: huzzah!

Now for the individual pans.

Luminous Flush, as it was last month:

As it is now:

So there has been some progress in this shade, but not much.

As mentioned in previous updates, this will be the hardest shade for me to finish because it's my least favourite of the three. I do use it occasionally to warm up eyeshadow looks, but I'll need to start finding other ways to incorporate it into my everyday routine if I want to pan it before Christmas.

Incandescent Electra, last month:

Incandescent Electra, now:

You can see that I've done some good work towards clearing out the left side of the pan.

I use this shade every day as my blush and I'm yet to tire of it. While I do think I can pan it this year, I still need to keep hard at it because blushes take forever to pan. Indeed, I may need to start wearing this on my eyes more often - once I've finished Mood Exposure (which I often use on my eyes).

Speaking of which, here's Mood Exposure as it was last month:

Mood Exposure, now:

Now:

As you can see, I've cleared out two more pans on this side of the palette and I've also hit pan in the purple shade and made further progress in the large highlighter pan.

I'm definitely looking forward to recharging this palette: I'm running out of ideas when it comes to using what's left together!

As for the round pans along the bottom, here's how they looked last month:

And now:
