Project 10 Pan: To Infinity & Beyond!

Okay, so this is gonna be a different kind of Project 10 Pan blog post. The principle is still basically the same; I have too many products and only one body/face to use them on. I have enough already! I plan to do this for skincare, body products and haircare, the main difference being that when I get to 10, I will simply keep on going. Yes, I'm not stopping til my whole stash is used up; hence the infinity reference in this blog post's title...although hopefully there will be a time when I do use everything and it won't actually be infintessimal...unless I die first. Depressing thought!. I have been doing this half heartedly over the last few months, but now is the time to get serious; so here goes!

The Rules
  • As I said I am not stopping til I am done...no cheating after 10, oh no, that is not hardcore enough my friend. No more skincare, body or haircare purchases until i'm through
  • Exceptions; If I have genuinely used up my stash of a certain product, I am allowed to buy a replacement of that product type only, for example, if I run out of deodorant, I will be buying another one...there's hardcore and there's crazy, I have no friends anymore beacause I reek hardcore. I aim to be the former rather than ther latter.
  • All those stupid samples, trial sizes and gift set sized bottles are very much included. These need to be used up as much as the full size items need to be. If this were a regular project 10 pan, that may be considered cheating, but as it isn't, these need to go too.
  • Gifts are allowed. However, I am not allowed to ask for these things as gifts. They genuinely have to be given to me by someone without my asking for them. In a way this is like when you lose at a round of a card game when you have to pick up cards...gifts are nice, but this kind of gift is one step further away from my goal!
  • If a body, skin or hair care item comes free with something I am genuinely allowed to buy, then of course I should take the free thing, that would be very uneconomical of me to refuse...and looking a gift horse in the mouth and all that (whatever that phrase really means...odd now I think of it, why would a horse be giving me gifts?) However, I should not be actively looking this kind of thing out, and should take the genuinely more economical purchase.

That's all I can think of for now, but I reserve the right to add addendums to these basic rules should need be...although not to get me off the hook for cheating!

So, coming up next is a post with my first dead things, and perhaps as I go along I will do mini reviews, for anyone else that is interested, and so I can properly consider if I should repurchase when the game is up.

Alrighty-roo, TTFN, if you have any thoughts on my rather ambitious project please comment below!!
