In 2019, I started on a mission to be more transparent about my beauty buying habits. I meticulously tracked the items that were coming in and out of my collection using my beauty inventory. At the end of every season, I rounded up my beauty empties and decluttered beauty products. However, my collection still kept expanding. In today’s post, I’m sharing my 20 in 2020 Project Pan Introduction, as well as my motivation for finishing up makeup.

Why Am I Doing This Project?
As I’ve learned over the last two years tracking my beauty empties, I am excellent at working through skincare and hair care products. However, makeup products are much harder for me to finish. With my 20 in 2020 Project Pan project, my aim is to finish 20 beauty products before the end of the year.
Although I’ve included a few minis in my this 20 in 2020 Project Pan introduction, my hope is use up full size makeup products. Obviously, minis are easier to use up than full-size products.

Final Thoughts on my 20 in 2020 Project Pan Introduction
Within my 20 in 2020 Project Pan introduction, I included a mix of products that I anticipate will be easy to finish as well as products that will be more difficult. By including this mix of products, I’ll stay motivated to keep working on the hard to finish products.
Obviously, I did not include any mascaras, powder eyeshadow, or powder cheek products. I will naturally finish mascaras throughout the year. In contrast, powder eyeshadow and cheek products are considerably more difficult to finish in a calendar year.
