2015 Use Up The Stash Challenge: Session 3

[Dayjoy]

I remember when original CON Green and Red poo was being d/c'ed and everybody was on the hunt. I still had an 8oz Red and was able to find two 32oz Greens at the Sally around the corner. I thought it would take forever to get through. We are well into our last bottle and I figured I'd just move on to the new CON Argan because my LHCF sisters had well tested it and gave it the stamp of approval. NOW CON done gone and messed up the Argan formula by adding cones, and now, a new hunt is on (for original, no-cone CON Argan poo).

I said all this to say I bought two 20oz bottles of CON Argan poo (original formula) yesterday...and if I find more...

Can someone tell me how to post a pic to my album and then to this thread? I saved it as a png, which is the first option listed, click Add Media, pick an album, browse for the pic and click open. Then it just sits there with a small bar running in the top right of the page and never completes or gives me an error message. I tried yesterday and today. Running IE11 if that makes a difference/

Used up 1 VO5 tonight.

I am tossing out the Uncle Funky's Daughter Thirsty Curls Leave-in spritz. It isn't doing anything for my hair. I got this for free, so i cant complain to much, but I wont be buying any water based spritzes. The one I make myself I'd cheap, easy to make and works for my hair.

I cancelled my onyx box. It was getting to the point where I wasn't even touching the box before the next one was coming. I'm coming out of my marleys this weekend so I'll be back to using up stuff.

 

[CodeRed]

Used up 1 VO5 conditioner today.

 

[jbwphoto1]

Nothing used up yet, but it is time to make a new bottle of moisture spray with AVG, distilled water and about 10 drops of each of the essential oils I still have around. I think the only ones I'll reorder will be the tea tree and peppermint and not the rosemary and lavender.

 

[uofmpanther]

My PJ came back. I was down to my last ounces of herbal essence. Rather than buying more, I decided to buy Garnier. They were having a sale, so I bought 6 bottles. I may return some though. I'll use them up quickly though. I run through conditioner like water.

I also bought two edge controls for my work buns.

 

[B_Phlyy]

Got another conditioner in my ipsy bag this month. Oscar Blandi. Very nice.

 

[CodeRed]

Adding 6 oils to my stash:

Carrot Seed Oil
Cedarwood Oil (buy 1 get one free)
Lavendar Oil
Rosemary Oil
White Thyme Oil

Almost done with the mustard oil though.

I'm still not able to Add Media to one of my own albums. Going to give up trying for now. I'll just keep the photos on the computer at work instead of taking up all this space on personal devices.

In my comparison between NG deep condish and APB Mud Mask, I started looking at the price. NB is cheaper per ounce, but APB runs more sales. Will have to put the APB Mud Mask at the top of my list to see the results after steaming and how long it takes me to finish the last 3/4 jar. Wait! I only have 3/4 jar of the mud mask? Let me go back and read about getting a pass for a purchase. Because reading is fundamental!

This is what I had to do with Shea Moisture. They have Buy 1 Get 1 all the time so it not only performs on par with other conditioners I love but it's going to turn out cheaper in the long run because of the sales

Washed on Friday. Used the NG marshmallow conditioner and twisted up with the NO conditioning balm and Oyin Burnt Sugar Pomade. Have 1 use left of the NG marshmallow conditioner and the NO conditioning balm. Plan to do a protein treatment Wednesday so will probably use them both up then.

 

[Dayjoy]

Finally finished up the Infusium 23 liquid leave in. Moving on to It's a 10 with Keratin.

 

[ImanAdero]

I washed my hair on Sunday... No where. Lose to using anything up, BUT I still feel confident I can use up the items I hope to this session. I actually might finish my SSI Banana Brulee DC in 2 more washes.

 

[faithVA]

I'm washing tonight so I think I can use up 2 things tonight.

I looked at the Natural Oasis products and she no longer sells the 4 balm set I will probably still buy the balms she does sell.

Last night I used one of the SM shampoos to wash a wig and then combs and brushes. Then opened the next jar of APB Creamy Hair Pudding.

 

[faithVA]

Used up the NG Marshmallow conditioner. Didn't use up all of the NO balm. I forgot that when I blow-dry I don't use as much oil. Used up a little more of the Oyin Burnt Sugar Pomade. I think I'm going to get back to doing my hair every 3 or 4 days to stay on track. That should help me use up a few things.

 

[Lanea87]

Im back. I had cornrows in, hiding underneath a wig for like 4 weeks. I plan on washing and DCing tonight.

 

[uofmpanther]

I can't seem to use up the Koils By Nature DC and Leave-in. They seem to last forever.

 

[JazzyOleBabe]

Used up Kyra Cupuacu Curl Cream. -- Really liked this.
Shida Nat'l Moisturizing Spray.

 

[CodeRed]

I can't seem to use up the Koils By Nature DC and Leave-in. They seem to last forever.

Yeah... the DC is really thick and I liked it alright but it just never ended... I'd be good if it was a staple though

 

[jbwphoto1]

I tossed the 1 1/2 sample bars of Henna Sooq Mad Moisture Bars. I know I'm not going to use them for my hair as I prefer Bobeam shampoo bars. I didn't mind it for showering, but now I'm using Shea Moisture black soap body wash.

 

[Dayjoy]

Used up the ApHogee Curlific Texture Treatment--not a repurchase--and also used the last of our Trader Joe's Tea Tree Tingle. This will be our staple cowash con after we use up or come close to using up all of our rinse out cons. It'll be a while...

I know... I made the same face when I realized I'm already planning my purchases for after I'm done clearing out this stash

 

[Lanea87]

I have been using SM Restorative Conditioner as a moisturizer, did that this morning once I made it home from work.

 

[Dayjoy]

I picked up another sample size of Shea Moisture poo. This time I got the Moisture Retention. I need to see if it can replace CON Argan or not before I go running around trying to search for the CON Argan original formula. Adding it to my list.

 

[CodeRed]

Adding 2 cans of coconut water to my list.

 

[B_Phlyy]

I want to buy something. #thatisall
