Back with Project Pan!

It's been a long while! I've used up quite a few products in the interim. Here are some items that I've reviewed previously and finished up.

Project Pan Item #40: Swedish Skin Eye Cream
I have a bunch of these to use up but I'm currently using my favorite Estee Lauder Advanced Night Repair Eye.

Project Pan Item #41: Maybelline One-by-One Mascara
This is the second tube of this mascara that I've finished. I liked it a lot and wouldn't mind repurchasing it.

Project Pan Item #42: Burt's Bees Tinted Lip Balm (Hibiscus)
Hibiscus was a new shade for me. It was very close to my natural lip color, perhaps even a tad lighter on some days, so it was a good neutral, easy-to-use shade for anytime. I generally like the Burt's Bees tinted lip balms but my favorite of the ones I've tried is Rose.

Project Pan Item #43: MAC Fluidline (Blitz & Glitz)
Blitz & Glitz is supposed to be a very deep, dark brown with some shimmer but the particles are very subtle, and the liner on the whole just ends up looking black. I have no problem with that and the product itself is great, but if you're looking for something that will look different than just a plain black, then don't expect much from this shade.

Project Pan Item #44: Estee Lauder DayWear
Still loving it, and still using it.

Project Pan Item #45: Sally Hansen Insta-Dri Top Coat
Will mostly likely go back to this as soon as I'm done with my current bottle of Seche Vite.

Project Pan Items #46, 47: Neutrogena Eye Makeup Remover (not pictured)
I've definitely gone through at least 2 of these but possibly more! I'm working through another now and plan to continue repurchasing it.

Swedish Skin: Anti-Aging Eye Cream

Swedish Skin Anti-Aging Eye Cream

Project Pan Item #35: Swedish Skin Anti-Aging Eye Cream

I got a ton of the Swedish Skin eye creams and moisturizers way back when they had some B1G2 deal. Sadly, I was not the biggest fan of these products but I have a big stash awaiting use.

The eye cream is the better of the two products I tried. I turned to it after I ran out of my beloved Estee Lauder Advanced Night Repair Eye (reviewed here), which I am holding out on repurchasing because I'm learning to live on a strict budget. Swedish Skin's products are apple-based and come in a very light mint green tint with a fresh scent. The texture of the eye cream is sort of gel-like, not quite creamy like a lotion but also not as thin as a true gel. It gets tacky as it dries down, which I wasn't crazy about because instead of gliding across the skin, it'd end up pulling on and dragging the skin. This is not something you want for the delicate eye area. To get around this, I'd suggest patting this product in instead of smoothing it out, Once on, I do feel that this eye cream suffices to keep the skin around the eyes moisturized. It sank in quickly and was not greasy so it did not disturb the makeup that I put on over it.

I tried to look up the price of this product but I got a message from my antivirus program about Trojans so I wouldn't even venture onto their website. This eye cream is mediocre at best, and it's not worth looking into.
