I had my first full size pan in April - a moisturiser! Woohoo!!
I've been posting monthly updates that mostly consist of samples I've been panning (I bought one Christmas gift for a relative from this Italian beauty store, L'Erbolario, and they gave me so many samples) because I don't use up product that quickly... and I had a lot of just-opened product at the start of the year. But my first full size pan is finally here!
Products in order:
- Dermolab gel moisturiser (75ml): finishing this felt really good. I really liked this moisturiser and was a little scared about what I would do once I was done, but am currently using another moisturiser I like just as much!
- L'Erbolario gin botanicals Perfume: the pouch format was very impractical. Liked the perfume but not enough to justify buying it, I am focusing on putting dents in my existing bottles.
- Tinted SPF sample: made my lips itch. Before you ask, no I did not put it on my lips directly. Did not enjoy. I still have 3 more samples (thanks, L'Erbolario), which I will be trying to give away.
- Laneige serum: I liked this and also have a mini of it at the moment that I working on. Will not be repurchasing once I finish the mini.
- SpaceNK bubble bath: really liked this but will not be buying a full bottle in the name of saving money and the environment (as I don't really take frequent baths at the moment and it seems wasteful to start).
Looking ahead to the rest of 2026, I have a goal of finishing at least one lip gloss or lip tint! I am finding that much harder than getting through skincare or bodycare so will need some luck.
