Restarting My Project Pan


So if you follow me on Instagram you'll know I suck at Project Pan's. I started the project around January and ending up never using any ofthe products I picked. This was due to a number of reasons; One - I was right at the start of my Accutane treatment so I couldn't actually use many of the products I'd chosen from my original project as my skin had gotten so dry. Two - I've been wearing a mask for a while now, when I go out, so lipsticks are pretty much out the window. Three - I set myself no rules. 

This time I've picked products I love but always end up neglecting. Products that suit my skin and I can wear with a face mask (please wear a mask!). The rules I've set myself is that I can only buy a new product when I've used my chosen eight products up. This doesn't include items I go through all the time like mascara, brow gel and foundation... but includes buying excess makeup I don't need.

1. Fenty Sun Stalkr Bronzer - Inda Sun 
This is actually a bronzer from my original project pan. I did really well with this one as I hit pan and I feel like I could definitely use it up as there isn't that far to go! 

2. Huda Beauty Overachiever Concealer 
I have a love hate relationship with this concealer. There are days it looks great but days where it makes my under eyes look super dry and it feels really heavy. I have been loving using it lightly to cover up my acne scars so think I can get some use out of it this way. 

3.Nars Multiple Stick in Orgasm
I love blush and over buying blush is one of my worst habits. I love this shade and I've had this since December and already used over half. This is a gorgeous cream blush and I'm hoping to be able to finish it!

4. Nars Radiance Primer 
I recently finished my Glossier Future Dew so have brought this baby out of my draw! It works a dream and makes my skin look so healthy. 

5. Glossier 'Nite Shine 
I actually don't reach for highlighter that much these days but I love how natural this one looks on my skin, so I think I could definitely use it up.

6.Kevyn Aucoin contour powder 
I've recently got back into contouring and i realised i hardly ever touched my Kevyn Aucoin contour powder. It's a great shade that suits my pale skin so think it's a great fit for my project pan. 

7. Kiehl's Lip Treatment 
Lip balms have been my go to this year, with lockdown and mask wearing and this Kiehl's one is one of my favourites. It's a gorgeous colour that suits every look and doesn't transfer onto my face mask because it's so sheer. Plus it hydrates my lips. 

8. Nars Pressed Setting Powder
I love this powder and it really suits my dry skin well. It sets my makeup without making my face feel dry and still makes my face look dewy. Plus it's translucent so doesn't make my under eyes look dark. I can't believe how little I use this considering how much I love it. 

There we have it! My new project pan. I'll do monthly updates and post on my Instagram account The Call Of The Makeup to show how much product is left, so keep an eye out there.

Bioderma Sensibio Range Review - PR

  If you've been around for a long time you'll know Bioderma is one of my favourite skincare brands and they were kind enough to send me their Sensibio range to try out.  The Bioderma Sensibio Micellar water needs no introduction. It's a staple in so many makeup artists routines and it's easy to see why. I've gone through so many of these micellar waters and nothing quite compares for me. This is the foundation of my morning skincare and is just enough cleansing without stripping my face. It's such a beautiful formula that leaves my skin looking super refreshed.  I also received a few goodies I haven't tried before including the Sensibio eye contour gel . This really surprised me as I usually steer towards creams when it comes to eye cream, but I was super impressed with the gel. It feels more like a creamy gel and glides beautifully under the eyes and makes the perfect base for concealer. I've actually been using this in the morning as I find the gel i...

Fenty Beauty Sun Stalk'r Bronzer - Pale Skin Review

I had been dying to purchase one of these bronzers since they came out and after months of resisting finally caved in! There are 8 shades which is great as there is a large range to choose from, depending on how you like your bronzer. Naturally I am quite pale and for reference I am the shade 120 in the Fenty Foundation and 150 Buff in Revlon's colour stay foundation, and even in summer, I never really change that much from these shades. From being so pale, the fear of the bronzer is real, I haven't found any that look natural and don't leave me looking orange, muddy, or like i have a some kind of smudge on my face. So I decided to try the lightest bronzer Fenty Beauty had to offer, Inda Sun. From swatching the shade appears pretty neutral and light, it doesn't have a red undertone that can leave pale skin looking orange. I also love the gold packaging and how luxury and sleek it feels. I used the same brush I would normally use for bronzer which is my real tech...

How To Streamline Your Skincare Routine

 Lately I have been feeling so overwhelmed with makeup, skincare and brushes and decided to take it back to basics. Having a simple skincare routine is great for your skin, cost effective and stops me changing my routine every day! I decided to make a routine and stick to it.. mainly in an attempt to stop my acne! 1. Cleanser  A cleanser is a must! Ensuring all that makeup and grime is off your face is one of the most important steps. I love this Pai, Camellia and Rose Cleanser , but it is a littttlleee expensive, another great alternative is the Nivea Daily Basics Face Wash.  If I want to make my cleanser last longer ( especially the ones that make my eyes water looking at the price ), I will just use micellar water, like the Bioderma one and a cotton pad in the morning and save my cleanser for night, but one cleanser will do the trick! 2. A Toner  Without a toner my skin feels tight and dry. The Liz Earle Skin Tonic, has been a favourite for years, it sm...
