My Top Tips on Panning Eyeshadows | sofiealexandrahearts 

100%! I used to wear bold lips and light eyes and I never ever hit pan on a shadow, then I started switching it around and that’s when I started panning eyeshadows properly. I could go through a red lipstick in a month before though, so I guess it depends on what you want to focus on haha 😊 thank you Jessica! You’re one of the OG eyeshadow panning queens so it means a lot

Thank you! I’m happy that my tips helped 😊 good luck with your panning!

I think it does really make a difference! I used to wear eyeshadows like that to - only having maybe 100-200 pans in my collection and using the same palettes daily - but I also did the opposite of what I do now, and I only had a handful of pans and I never even saw any dips 😊 I think the way I wear eyeshadow now definitely isn’t for everyone, it didn’t use to be for me either. But that’s what’s nice - we all use our makeup in different ways 😍

It does really make such a huge difference 😊 yes! Formula also makes a HUGE difference, but I didn’t really cover formulas in this video, because with for example Pan Those Eyeshadows, you don’t always choose the formula 😄💕

YES! I can't tell you how many times I was in a rush and used left-over shadow on a brush for my eye look!!

Definitely! I have a colour switch and need to use that if I use the same brush back to back, but with different shades. Because otherwise there’s way too much of the old shimmer on the brush 😅 but using the colour switch works great to “clean” my brushes between uses

Thank you! I really tried with them as I figured, for example with the brushes, everyone probably considers different brushes dense 😊 I’m glad my tip helped! ❤️

I’m glad it helped 😊✨

Thank you so much! I don’t feel like I’m very good at tutorials but I might try and do some at one point 😊

It has helped so much in my own panning, especially with all the randomised shades I get in projects 😊 hope it helped! Thank you!

I’m legit thinking of doing that after watching this! I thought I was just too delicate 😆

That’s a great idea, I do like having it there for if I’m on the go and need a all in one brush, but I mainly use the brushes for the packing brush 😄

Thank you Ruth! I hope my tips were somewhat helpful 😄💕

I thought the same thing! I feel like wasting eyeshadow just to hit pan doesn't make sense and that way the usage does't reflect how long it actually takes to hit pan on an eyeshadow.

I don’t think it’s wasting eyeshadows. I compare it to for example some people who want to wear lipsticks dabbed out, almost blotted, and other want full on bold payoff (light use vs packed on) or how some people only wear for example lipstick instead of lip liner, lipstick and gloss (wearing more eyeshadows in a look). I think it all comes down to preference, and I never meant for it to be digging and having so much eyeshadow on your brush that you get fallout everywhere and therefore wasting your eyeshadows. Hope that makes sense 😊

I heard that shimmer shades actually work great in the brows, but I haven’t tried it myself yet! Perhaps I won’t go for a purple shimmer though 🙈
