Post #24: 13 by Halloween - October Project Pan FINALE

This is my 13 by Halloween Project Pan finale. As of October 31st:

1. Make Up For Ever Ultra HD foundation, sample packet. I am considering purchasing a full size of this product - two uses and done 10/04/17

2. Clinique Foundation Sample, small vial. It had good coverage, but wasn't the best for oil control, but in Clinique's defense this was an old sample - 10.5 uses and done 10/18/17

3. Stila Stay All Day waterproof liquid eyeliner NOT done by 10/31

4. It Cosmetics Hello Lashes! - eh, not my favorite formula of mascara, but I gave it a fair test. done 10/21/17

5. Theorie Marula Oil Hair Serum - deluxe sample from ipsy. Definitely not interested in purchasing a full size, the benefits weren't that noticeable - 12 uses and done 10/14/17

6. GlamGlow GlowStarter - Nude Glow illuminating moisturizer - deluxe sample from Sephora (note: illuminating is right! I was so shiny after using it) Does not shine through my foundation. roughly 16 uses and done 10/25/17

7. Perricone MD H2 Elemental Energy Hydrating Cloud Cream - deluxe sample from Sephora. I think, depending on the price I would consider purchasing a full size of this. It was light and hydrating - 2 weeks of use (twice a day) and done 10/14/17

8. GlamGlow Volcasmic matte glow moisturizer - deluxe sample from Sephora - so thick and pasty, I am not sure if I am a fan... so after the first few uses I started scooping it out with my pallet knife and rubbing it in my hands before applying it to my face/neck. That helped but it was still more greasy feeling than I would like for under my makeup. I would only use it as a night cream or on days I don't wear makeup if I were to repurchase - 7 uses and done 10/17/17

9. Tata Harper Resurfacing Mask - sample from Sephora - I didn't like or dislike this product, won't be purchasing - 2 uses and done 10/18/17

10. Mud Masky purifying recovery mask - deluxe sample from ipsy - I liked the exfoliation of this mask, but I am not really a face mask person. Though for reference, using it before showering I found was the best, that way you didn't miss washing off any of the product. 6 uses and done 10/28/17

11. Avene Mattifying toner - deluxe sample from ipsy - I don't think I noticed anything caused/helped by the toner, but I am going to keep using toner moving forward (I bought Dickinson's Witch Hazel toner) - roughly 34 uses and done 10/17/17

12. Nars Velvet Matte lip pencil, Cruella - deluxe sample from Sephora. I already have a full size of this, so I will continue working through this sample [you will see it again in another project pan] (Birthday gift 2015). Still a great color and I love the lasting power. It is drying on the lips by the end of the day. I consider myself to have a high tolerance to lip discomfort so it doesn't bother me. (The discomfort sets in after 6-8 hours of wear.) NOT done by 10/31

13. Make Up For Ever Rouge Artist Natural N9. I started pairing this color with my Nabi lip liner in Mahogany to give it more 'oomph' which I will continue doing until I finish. NOT done by 10/31
