April empties 🤍

I’ve been slowly working through my project pan this April and it’s been an insightful journey discovering which products truly perform for me. One standout has been the L’Oréal Elvive Dream Lengths shampoo and oil, which I rated 8/10 for making my hair feel soft and manageable. Its castor oil and vegetal keratin formula really helped reduce split ends and maintain my long, damaged hair. Another favorite was the Coco & Eve Super Nourishing Coconut & Fig Hair Masque. Though a bit pricey, the scent was heavenly and it left my hair incredibly smooth and hydrated, earning an 8.5/10 from me. For makeup, the Morphe brightening pink setting powder was a game changer and got a 9/10 for keeping my makeup fresh all day without feeling cakey. I also tried different primers but found that some, like the Marsh Mellow primer, scored lower (2.5/10) as it didn’t really extend my makeup’s longevity or have the desired texture. On the other hand, the Maybelline Sky High mascara impressed me with its lightweight formula, volume, and price point, making it my second favorite mascara with a 9/10 rating. Going through these empties gave me a clearer idea about what to repurchase and what to skip, which is the whole point of a project pan for me—making better choices and actually finishing the products I invest in. I plan to speed up the process by incorporating more of these favorites into my summer routine to make the most out of them while enjoying my skincare and makeup journey.
