What is a Project 50 Pan?
It's a commitment by me to both save money & rescue my dresser & bathroom from having enough beauty, hair, skin, makeup products to almost kickstart my own beauty franchise.
During the Project 50 Pan I will not be buying (for my own use) any of the following:-
- hair care products ie shampoo, conditioner, styling
- makeup products
- skincare products
- fragrance products
- body care products ie soaps, shower gels, scrubs, self-tanning, sunblock
- nail care products ie polish, tools, treatments
- hand care products ie handcreams, scrubs, soaps
I'm committing to finish 50 items from my current product stash (either I'm using already or have bought already) before I purchase any more beauty related items.
What are the rules?
During the duration of the P50P, I will not purchase any new hair, skincare, fragrance, body products, makeup, hand or nail products - unless I'm specifically replacing an item I do not have more of already i.e. if I run out of sunblock or nail polish remover etc
Items must be full size items, items I use personally i.e. not family members, and emptied or finished to be counted in the total.
What are the exceptions?
- I have 3 x monthly Beauty Box subscriptions that are paid annually - these will continue to arrive during the P50P.
- I am invited regularly to trial beauty products & review them. As I'm not purchasing these personally, I will happily accept suitable trial offers & products.
- I'm pretty lucky & love entering competitions so may win some beauty prizes during the P50P. Again, I'm not buying these items.
- I have a fair amount of samples to use up - I will include (5) deluxe samples I finish using as (1) full size item
Other info
I'll review each item as I finish & post my progress every time I use up 5 items. It'll give you a secret peek into my favourite items & why I love them, or in some cases, why I wouldn't repurchase.
I hope you enjoy following me on this challenge & I hope to see my bank a/c growing & my stash reducing. No idea how long it will take, I expect a few months easily.
Have any of you done this challenge before, and if so, how was it? Or are you inspired to join me and do one of these too?
