Vannie vs Panwise

Your makeup, finally getting used — not just collected. Vannie is a project pan tracker and makeup inventory for people ready to use up what they own before buying more. A Vannie Pro subscription is required to add and track products. Eligible new subscribers can try the yearly plan free for 7 days. Doing a full no-buy, a low-buy year, or just picking a few products to finish? Vannie is built around how project pan actually works. YOUR PROJECT PAN • Pick the products you want to finish and focus on them • Track how full each one is — Full, ¾, Half, ¼, Almost gone • Add progress photos and keep the whole story, from first swipe to empty • Tap "I hit pan" and celebrate the moment it happens • Can't decide what to reach for? Spin the Lucky Pick wheel • Share your progress as a photo collage LOG EVERY USE • Log each use with a double-tap — that's the whole gesture • Build a streak you can see and keep the momentum • Surface your most-neglected products — your next pan targets • Watch cost-per-use drop every time you reach for something CELEBRATE YOUR EMPTIES • Finish a product and Vannie throws a full-screen celebration • Mark anything finished, gifted, expired, disliked, or "broke me out" • Note whether you'd repurchase — build an honest empties history • Browse your Archived collection by reason, brand, or category EARN YOUR BADGES Earn badges as you finish products and log your uses — from First Empties to Pan Queen. KNOW EXACTLY WHAT YOU OWN • Add any product four ways: scan a barcode, snap a photo (AI helps identify the brand, product, and shade), search 70,000+ products, or add manually • Own backups? Group identical ones and track how many you own • Already track in a spreadsheet? Import Excel or CSV directly • Tap any brand, category, finish, or tag to drill in • Save filters as one-tap views — Holy Grails, Daily, Cruelty-Free, your way KEEP TRACK OF MAKEUP EXPIRY DATES • Set the opened date + period after opening (PAO) • Vannie calculates the expiry automatically and nudges you before it turns • Plan ahead and waste less BUY WITH INTENTION • Wishlist with target prices and preferred stores • Total collection value, monthly spending trends, repurchase list • Stop buying the same nude lipstick three times WHY VANNIE Built by a solo founder and shaped by the Project Pan community, Vannie helps you enjoy what you own and make every finish count.

Do you want to actually use your makeup collection instead of just looking at it? Panwise is the makeup tracker for your Project Pan. I built Panwise because I couldn’t find an app like it myself. I wanted to know which products I really use, how long it takes me to finish them, and whether my collection is actually getting smaller. And I wanted tracking to be as simple as possible. That’s how Panwise came to life: made by a panner for the panning community. An app that fits easily into your daily routine and makes your progress visible. — TRACK WITH ONE TAP Logging a use only takes a moment. Tap a product or choose “Used All Today” to check in your entire daily lineup at once. KEEP YOUR PROJECT PAN IN SIGHT The Active Panning screen keeps all the products you’re currently trying to finish in one place, so you always know what to focus on. PROGRESS YOU CAN SEE Log your product’s weight or add a progress photo. Over time, you can watch it slowly disappear. Seeing that change makes it so much easier to stay motivated. EASILY CATCH UP ON MISSED DAYS Forgot to log yesterday’s products? No problem. Use the calendar to add past entries and see exactly which products you used on each day. UNDERSTAND WHAT YOU REALLY USE The dashboard shows which products you use most often, how much you’ve invested in your collection, and which products you’ve already finished. ALL THE IMPORTANT DETAILS IN ONE PLACE Save each product’s name, brand, shade, category, opening date, shelf life, price, and personal notes. GET A SHELF LIFE REMINDER Choose whether you’d like to be reminded when an opened product reaches the end of its stated shelf life. EVERY EMPTY COUNTS An empty is more than just an empty package. It shows that you truly used a product. Panwise captures that moment and celebrates your progress with you. — Panwise is for anyone who wants to be more intentional with their makeup collection, finish the products they already own, and stay motivated throughout their Project Pan. No ads. No subscription. Available in English and German. I develop Panwise myself, and I’d love to hear from you when you finish your first product with it.
