The "OG" Product Junkie
ALL

There is no way Im listing everything.

I plan to reduce my stash down to the lines I consistently use. Curls and Potions, Negesbanda, Qhemet Biologics, Product Junkie Naturals, Shescentit, Curl Origin and Nurcreations.

It seems like a lot of brands but I use deep conditioners like it was candy and I always rotate between these lines the most. I want to reduce the bulk of my products that I liked but didn't repurchase.

I have the bad habit of using a product 1/2 and leaving it. In the spring, I will be gifting some items locally. The only things that might happen is I am a brand ambassador to two lines so at times, I have to buy a few things to support.

4. Explain what system you will use to update your list (i.e., different colors/symbols to denote used/purchased items or items added from your current stash).

I almost exclusively use up my stash (I never really give stuff away) so I'll mark empties with red font and a strike through.


5. By the end of the challenge, what is the total number of products you hope to have in your stash.


I want use up 15-20 products in this first quarter.

I finished up my Adwoa Beauty Baomint Oil, It's a good oil but I don't think I would repurchase it. I don't use oils that often and I prefer the Melanin oil which I can now get on the ground easily.

How did you like it?

I really like it. The only head scratcher for me is which of the ingredients is the cleanser? My scalp always felt fine when using and when you add water after applying it seems to kind of suds up. But I was looking through the ingredient list (and comparing it to my oyin and the doux cowashes) and couldn't pick which one it was.

But honestly the only negative I have was that the pump bottle is a pain as you get close to it being empty.

I think the oyin ginger mint is just as good with a better price point though.

Thank you!! That's great to know, Oyin's Ginger Mint was on my radar too so I'll make that purchase next.
