2015 Use Up The Stash Challenge: Session 3

[krissyhair]

Went to Sally's for nail polish thinner and to sniff a shampoo.

Sniffed the shampoo, picked up the thinner, thought about buying 2 nail polishes, and checked out the Shea Moisture Professional line.

Walked out with the nail polish thinner and.....a cuticle pusher.

Stash stayed safe.........this time.

I just bought one of those shea moisture conditioners for the sale.

 

[CodeRed]

Gave away 4 VO5 conditioners.

 

[Vshanell]

I don't like this stuff. I hate the smell, it stinks. The slip was not wow to me. I won't repurchase.

 

[Lanea87]

Cantu SheaButter Leave-In
......I trashed this because I don't believe it was any good any more. It smelled weird!

 

[Lanea87]

Shea Moisture Curl Enhancing Smoothie
.....Had 2. Packed one up and will be taking to coworker. I gave her one before.

 

[oneastrocurlie]

Bought the SM Pro Cowash and Leave in. And I used a gift card so technically no money spent lol

If you liked the original one you should give the (un)done conditioner a try. It's pretty awesome.

Finished SM purification masque (staple), I have 3 left. I'll also be finishing my BSS shea butter, I don't even have enough left for my whole head. Although the Shea works well I won't be repurchasing. I'm going to stick with BnB East African Shea.

 

[Dayjoy]

Used up a Phyto Phytokeratine ends serum and my super old can of Aussie hairspray just stopped spraying. I had to throw it out.

 

[faithVA]

Didn't use up anything but hit a few things. I used the NG Marshamallow, slippery elm DC. I probably have a 2 or 3 uses left of that. I used one of my NO balms and have only 1 or 2 uses of that.

 

[ImanAdero]

Used up the small APB leave in

My hair products are actually going much quicker than anticipated because my mom uses tHem.

I keep changing my mind on what I want to use next, but I have 5 leave ins including this SM JBCO one... I used it on my mom tonight, so hopefully we can work that out... if she doesn't like how her hair feels toMorrow I'm throwing it away. Its just such a big product.

Besides that one I have half an APB leave in, half a SSI CocoCreme, half a KKKT and a small leave in that I'm not too crazy over because it has dimethicone in it... So I may throw that away too... it wS free so I don't mind throwing that one out.

I still have a lot of rinse out conditioners though, so I may experiment with using them as a leave in.

 

[oneastrocurlie]

Used up a SM Purification Masque. 3 left.

 

[Dayjoy]

I "hit pan" on my SMCES last night. I'm HATE that stuff and will celebrate when it's gone. I'm making myself use it up because I had NO BUSINESS buying it in the first place. It doesn't have a bad effect on my hair, just my hairstyle. I'm seeing frizz and no hold like never before using this stuff. So this is my punishment for my pj ways. Won't be long now.

 

[faithVA]

I've been using one of my samples in the morning as a spritz. I should be able to use it up by the end of June. I think I may be able to use up 3 or 4 things in the next 30 days. At least that's progress.

 

[ImanAdero]

Finished my small APB rinse out and the As I Am CoWash...

Going to use the two step and may finish one of my Avocado Conditioners tonight (the smaller one).

 

[oneastrocurlie]

Sending some extra will power everyone's way for the holiday weekend lol. Stay strong PJs.

 

[faithVA]

I washed last night and hit the NO shine balm again. I have one more use and its done.

 

[ImanAdero]

Why is SSI having a sale?! ::cries::

The good thing is that these companies DO have plenty of sales, there will probably be a 4th of July sale too, so I can wait a monyh... I have enough stuff to last me for longer then that, so I can hold out. Need to use more products!

I hated that stuff too. It took me forever to find ways to use it up.

I'm pretty proud of myself. I didn't buy anything for Memorial Day....but then I won a gift set from Deva Curl, so my stash still went up. Lol

 

[CodeRed]

I looked at my stash and I think I only have staples left... VO5 and Shea moisture conditioners. I really don't want to try anything else... was going to do the EO Products conditioners but I can get more Shea Moisture for the money (with all the buy1get1 going on all year), I can find it in lots of places and I don't have to order anything. Same with VO5.

 

[CodeRed]

Adding avocado oil to my list. I bought it for my butter blend and will be using the rest of it for hair.

Moving avocado out of haircare and into skincare. I'm going to use my Shea Moisture masques as they are.

 

[B_Phlyy]

I got two full sized Mane and Tail conditioners free from Sally's because of a coupon I had. Also used up a deep conditoner and have one use in another conditioner. So stash broken even.

I plan on using up a lot more this session though because I did my summer mini braids so I'll be co washing 3-4 days a week and shampooing and deep conditoning twice a week. Not to mention how much I'll be moisturizing.

Probably won't use up any coloring products though. May take them off inventory actually.

 

[SweetlyCurly]

This week I've used up quite a few things:
SM curling soufflé
SM purification mask
Elucence moisture shampoo
JC replenishing conditioner
...now I don't feel too bad about some things I've been buying lately

 

[ImanAdero]

I gave my friend the rest of my small bottle for my SSI Avocado conditioner.

Also my mom said she liked the SM JBCO so I'll make sure I use it on her. I wont say it's been used up, but at least I know how I'm going to get rid of it now.

Slightly concerned I didn't get any SSI as I plan to cowash often, but I think I still have enough conditioners to last me through the 4th of July... in fact I know I do..

I just want more ::hangs head::

Okay, change in plans, I will use up a leave in and a gel. I actually may need to buy a new leave in btw... but I'll figure that out when I get there...

 

[faithVA]

Used up the NO hair balm. I have one left. I already miss them. I may repurchase when I get my stash down.

 

[SweetlyCurly]

Used up a bottle of Trader Joe's TTT Conditioner. Love this. Have one more left.

 

[ImanAdero]

Also gave my friend an APB hair cream. I forgot it.

Ummm... yep, gonna keep working at this stash!

Keep it going everyone! It seems like everyone is making good progress.
