Not bluffing: First empty, PTP 2025 update #1

This is ***Happy Accidents***, a franken palette!

The first month with a new pan that palette is always so exciting! I’ve decided this would be my PTP since October last year, and I couldn’t wait to get my hands and full focus on her.

So far, so good! I’ve already finished Bluff, which I expected would happen, but it’s satisfying nonetheless. I used it up after 4 uses, and it had 169 uses in total from when I started counting at the beginning of 2022.

I also, quite unexpectedly, hit pan on two more shades! These are quite shallow, but I didn’t expect them to be *this* shallow! Those are Fragonard, which I hit pan on the 2nd use on the 10th of January, and Love Letter, which I hit pan on the 4th use on the 23rd of January. I’m not as surprised by Love Letter, since I used it a few times as a blush (and finally like the placement and how it looks if I use a lighter hand), but I’m not complaining about either of these pans! It will be great to track progress on them now.

**Goals for January:**

* focus eyeshadow: Bluff – as I’ve finished it, I think this is a goal achieved
* use each eyeshadow x2 – struggled the most to reach for the warmer shades (Lovers, Cupid) and Garden, other than that it was a nice, easy goal
* do palette bingo x2 (randomly drawn combinations of 4 eyeshadow) – didn’t have the energy to do this, so I’m shifting it to be my goal for February

**Uses this month:**

* Lovers x3
* Cupid x3
* Bluff x4
* Stolen Kiss x6
* Confession x14
* Fragonard x5
* Love Letter x6
* Garden x3
* Rouge x5

**Goals for February:**

* focus eyeshadow: Garden – want to use at least x5
* do palette bingo x2
