Delightful Illusions


         Hey, guys! How are you? I hope you are all safe from the virus and doing the quarantine smoothly. I still go to work since it is necessary, but I'm taking all of the precautions that was imposed to us. Please take care of yourselves including your mental health. Anyway, I will be updating today my Pan In Everything (PIE) Project Pan which I started in January. Basically, this project aims to hit pan on all of the makeup products you have and it goes on for as long as you have an item that you didn't hit pan yet. You can read my introductory post to know more about the background of this project and to see who created this project. :)

           Since I started this project, I have hit pan on 3 products and I have rolled-in new products to hit pan on. I have been focusing on my pressed powder face products such as highlighters, blushes, bronzers and contours since I don't want to include eyeshadow products in this project. If you are interested, I have a project dedicated solely to hitting pan eyeshadows called the Pan Those Eyeshadows. It's a fun project where you can create different color combination and just be creative with your eyeshadow looks.              

Pinkies Collection Blusher (using as a highlight)
          I love this as a highlight on my cheekbones and I think this one of my top highlighters from collection. I love golden pink glow that it gives on my skin and the fact that it doesn't emphasize blemishes and texture on my face. I will miss using this but I still need to utilize other highlighters from my collection. I have hit pan on this after 3 uses and I used it for another 3 times before rolling it out on the project. 

Focallure Sculpt Glow Contour and Highlight Duo 03
          I have also hit pan on this contour powder from Focallure Beauty. I have reviewed  this last year and I said that this is the perfect contour shade for me and that I use this every time I do my makeup. I have I used this maybe at least 30 times before rolling this in into this project and I have hit pan on this after using 16 times. This is a lot of product and I might not finish it this year. I will continue to wear this from time to time in conjunction to my other contour products. 


Vice Cosmetics Contour Powder (Porshur)          

          Since I have hit pan on the Pinkies Collection Highlight, I have replaced it with this contour powder. I actually use this as a bronzer because it is a little bit warm and I don't want a warm contour. I love this product and it didn't took me a long time to hit pan on it. I just used this 8 times before hitting pan on, but I have used it a lot of times before rolling this in. 


Essence Pure Nude Highlighter (Be My Highlight)
         Oh my gosh! This product is immortal. I have used this a lot since I bought this back in 2017 and I still haven't hit pan on it. This gives a natural glow and is very suitable for work especially on a formal setting. I still like this but I'm kind of getting tired of this highlighter since I currently love glowy and blinding highlighters. I try to use everyday and pairing this with a different highlight so I won't get bored. I have used this 20 times ever since I started this project and who knows when will I hit pan on this. I'll just go with the flow I guess. 

MAC Powder Blush - Lesson In Love
        Due to my carelessness, I have dropped my Human Nature Sunkissed Blush and it cracked on the floor. I replaced it with this sheer pink blush and I think this is one of the products that will stay the longest on the project. This is hard-pressed and I really need to dig into this to get a color pay-off. I have used this 20 times since I included this on this project and it looks I haven't used it a lot. This is the only MAC blush I own and I don't have an idea if all of their blush powders feel like this. What do you think?

Ever Bilena Kris Collection Blush (First Love)

          Since I have hit pan on the Focallure Contour, I replace it with this matte blush which I reviewed last year as well. I like this blush and I don't see any problems on hitting pan on this. This product only weighs 2 grams and might hit pan on this before I post my next update. 

Jacky and Lauren Rose Gold Highlighter Palette (No. 3)
         Last but not the least, I have rolled in this rose gold highlight as a replacement for the Vice Cosmetics Contour in the shade Porshur. I layer this on top of the Essence Pure Nude Highlighter and I love the golden glow the pinkish gold glow that it gives. As you can see, I already made a dip and might hit pan on this real soon. Let's see about that.

           So these are the products that are currently in this project and I am happy that this project is going on smoothly for the most part. I am also proud of my self that I am currently consistent in posting my project pan updates since I haven't done so in past years. Haha! I feel so motivated to post more on this blog and I have ideas on the products I will feature in the future. I hope that you enjoyed this post and if you have anything to say, feel free to leave a comment. Thank you so much for stopping by.

         Happy New Year, guys! How was your holidays? Mine's pretty good and I have actually enjoyed a lot. I have celebrated Christmas with my relatives and New Year with my parents and boyfriend. To be honest, this has been the happiest that I have been in the longest time. I can feel big positive changes coming to my life and I am so much excited on that the universe has in store for me this year. 

         For my first post of the year, I have decided to share with you my introductory products that I will be hitting pan on in this panning project called Pan In Everything or #PIE for short. What is this #PIE all about? This project was created by Jessica Lee (video here) in collaboration with other panners. This is a forever ongoing project that aims to hit pan on all beauty products pressed in pans or the ones stored in jars. A panner can choose 4-5 products at a time; the can roll-in another product if he/she has hit pan on a product. This project aims to make use of panned beauty products and consume a good amount before they expire. I think this is a good way to go through panned makeup products that have been neglected, pushed aside or overlooked. This project goes on until you have hit pan on all of the panned makeup products or products stored on a jar that you currently have. 

          I will not include any eyeshadow product on this project because all of  my pressed eyeshadows will be placed on my Pan Those Eyeshadows 2020 project. My main focus for this project are my pressed blushes, powders, and highlighters. I would like to challenge myself to rotate through my face products because I have been neglecting some of them, especially blushes and highlighters.

Focallure Sculpt Glow (03) Ipanema Sun 
          This is the only contour powder I have and I would love to hit pan, or maybe use up, this as the year ends. I have reviewed this Focallure Sculpt Glow duo last year and I said that I will pan on this soon. Well, I have used this regularly since then and I still haven't done it yet. I guess I have underestimated the formula of this product. It is hardly pressed, doesn't have fallouts, and maybe has a deep pan. I love this product and I will continue to use this even if I will hit pan on this. I might hit pan on this by the end of January if I use this every single time I wear makeup.

Pinkies Collection Blusher 
           This blusher doesn't have a shade name and I forgot what number is this. This products works better as a highlighter because it is sheer and very reflective on the skin. It gives this golden pink sort of a bubblegum pink sheen on the skin. I love how this looks good on my warm skin tone and this is one of my favorite highlighters from the local market. This is quite old and so I need to utilize this as much as I can before it goes bad. I have a good amount of dip on this product and I think I might hit pan on this pretty soon. 
Human Nature Perfect Glow Mineral Blush - 02 Sun-kissed
          I have bought this blusher in 2018 and I have not used this since after my two tries of making this product work. I was disappointed that this is so sheer, so powdery and looks more like a subtle highlight. I love that this brand is cruelty-free, harsh chemical-free, eco-friendly, and affordable but the formula needs to be enhanced. I paid Php 295 for this blush and that price is a bit pricey for a local brand. I will try to pat this on my skin instead of swiping it and the color might show up a little bit. I think I might hit pan on this a bit sooner since this so powdery and my brush picks up a lot of product. 

     Essence Pure Nude Highlighter - Be My Highlight     
          Ah! A cult favorite. I have bought this because Kathleen Lights used to rave this highlighter a lot back in the day. I was dying to try this and bought this when I found a seller online selling this a lot cheaper than others. This was first highlighter and I loved it back then. I looks so natural and subtle on the skin. I have used this a lot and I have kind of flatten the dome just a little bit. I still like this but I'm kind of getting tired of this. This contains a lot of product, I have this for almost three years, and I still haven't hit pan on it. I'm bored with this highlighter. I have to admit though, I have been using a lot of other highlighters last year especially the one that are glowy and  blinding. This year, I will be ambitious and try to hit pan this. 


          Those are the products that I have chosen for this round. I'm not sure if I will do a monthly update or just post an update everytime I hit pan on something. I might hit pan one of these this January or maybe next month. I mean, who knows? I am currently unemployed and I won't be able to go out a lot and maybe use makeup products less. I am praying to land on a job soon so I could utilize my makeup products again and buy more makeup products to use and review.

          Are doing this project too? How are you doing so far? Please share it with us by leaving a comment. I have more project pan to share and hopefully it will be posted soon. I have also upcoming reviews for products that I have bought and currently testing. Thank you so much for stopping by and please subscribe if you like my content so you will be notified with my future posts. Have a great day. Stay safe. XOXO
