Hitting the Pan-MSF/ Finishng off a Full Pigment

I've hit pan only on blushbaby blush and the rest that you can see pan is from unfortunate accidents. I've got a gold deposit that is flat on top of it from it's first release and a stereo rose that all that's left is the ridged pan and a pot of crushed msf (accident-sob). I was so scared of running out that I bought two backups and now I doubt that I'll ever finish it!!
 
I'm on my 3rd shroom and vapour and 2nd crystal, hush and girlie. I used my vanilla pigment as a wash almost every day for a year and it still looks full - I don't think I could ever use a whole pigment!

If you're just using them as eyeshadows, Yes. They last a long time. If you are mixing them to make lip color, colored hair gel, and nail polish colors, they don't last as long.

I hit pan last July on my pro sable and naked lunch. I bought back up pots, but the originals are still going suprisingly strong. I have had my melon and tan since they originally were released, and they are still full even though I've used then in moisturizer on my legs & arms, on eyes, cheeks, and lips, and in my hair. I have gone through two ornamental lipglosses and one powerpoint eye pencil, and one strength lipstick. The rest of my collection looks untouched.

Hit pan on my Nylon e/s (had it 1 1/2 years) and the rest of my e/s some have good sized dips but not hit pan,.. and I have hit pan on Breath of Plum Blush (1 1/2 years), Pink Flurry shimmer powder (hanging on by a thread had it 1 year), used up a whole Belightful IPP (only had it 1/2 year), hit pan on my Blushing Femme (this is from Whos that Lady) and my Tahitian Sand BP (From Catherine D). I have so many pigments that I probably will never use them all up and I have resolved not to buy any more backups of pigments,.. 1 jar seems to be enough.

Heh, my only MSF is one of my most used face items. I think the only way to finish it would be to eat it. Seeing as I have such a small face and all.

I have hit the pan on vanilla shadow for the 2nd time. I am using the shadow by the edges of the pan now. I just bought the 3rd pan of vanilla waiting on the side lines.

I've hit pan on Sweet Lust and Honesty. I've gone through a full Pink Freeze but I dropped it and lost a bit of product so I'm not quite sure that counts.

A pigment or MSF?! I doubt I'll ever use one up.

i mostly look at my makeup, i hardly wear it. somedays i'll be bored and try a new look but for the most part since i'm at the gym so often, i just don't put anything on.

i'd say 95% of my shadows are still new and untouched, minus a color swatch

They are flat I only know this because I dropped my naked you msf and it broke everywhere and I got to see the pan, but being the obsessed girl I am I gathered all the broken pieces and bought a sifter type jar and now its a loose shimmer powder in a sifter jar lol,,,,,and thats the only time ive hit pan on anything.

But to answer your question no they are not domed pans

I've recently hit pan on Tilt, which I've only had for a year and didnt think I used very often! I'm nearly a quarter of the way into Old Gold and Teal..

Wow, I finally know what it feels like, I hit pan on my Twinks. I nearly wet myself. No seriously, I knew I was loving it harder than any other shadow but seeing the pan after only few months use still made me freak a little

I hit the bottom of Chimpagne a while ago but I use it almost every day. I've gone thru tons of eyeshadows before, mostly 'frost' ones. They are so soft so they get used up quickly...I've finished Nylon, Pink Freeze, Swish, Jest, Tilt, Amber Lights, and a lot of other ones, and tons of my right now have the pan showing! I've never come close to finishing a pigment though!
