2016 Use Up The Stash Challenge

[Dayjoy]

It's been almost a month since I reported an empty. Today I finished up the bottle of Ouidad Water Works clarifying shampoo. Happy to be done with this one.

Twisted with the TO Twist Creme. I'm debating on whether I'm going to through out the rest of it at the end of the year. I will see what my hair feels like when I take it down on Friday and use that for my decision.

I used the TO butter on my ends. I also used it on my feet. It's a nicely whipped.

Finished up Shea Moisture 10-N-1 conditioner, the one with the pump. I hate this line and am so happy this is done.

Finished:
Shea Moisture High Porosity mask
NaturelleGrow Marshmallow DC
Naturally Smitten Curl Mist
IoN deep repair treatment packet

I don't think I'm going to finish up anything else before the end of the year. Maybe if I start doing midway cowashes (after reading about @Smiley79 's wash n roll) I can finish up this bottle of rinse out.

Yup, the midweek W/R have helped me to finish lots of Conditioners I had on hand.

Not going to use up anything but I'm going to keep working on the TO twist cream.

I threw out the Nubian Heritage wrap foam and the Nubian Heritage heat protectant. The wrap foam had glycerin which has doesn't make sense to me. The heat protectant made my hair feel hard. After using the Hydratherma Naturals heat protectant I could never go back to Nubian. Heritage.

That SM Yucca and Plantain is pretty good and it smells good too. I haven't tried the conditioner yet, I bought the styling milk. It's a pretty good moisturizer.

Gave away (to my sister for Christmas) Carol's Daughters Monoi Shampoo, Conditioner, Leave-In, and Mask.

I got close to my goal, but didn't quite make it (33 vs. under 25). I doubt I'll use anything else up this year, but I am going to at least try my Nubian Heritage Heat Protectant Mousse to see if I want to keep it. In addition to my Black Friday purchases, I got several products as birthday and Christmas gifts from friends, so my 2017 starting stash will be slightly larger than my starting stash for this challenge.

Due the lazy factor being extremely high at this time, I'm justing posting pics of all the products I used up in 2016. Not sure if everything is pictured, but I did count and I finished up 125 products for the year. If you guys have any questions on the pics, just let me know.

It was lots of fun working with you ladies.

Wowwwww, awesome job.

Finished up only six items and returned one this quarter.

I think we finished up 34 items last year. I'm going to keep better track this year. I will not count what I bought even though I should. Speaking of, I bought three things that will be placed on my new inventory list but bought them in 2016: Living Proof No Frizz Nourishing Oil, Garnier Fructis Sleek & Shine Intensely Smooth Leave In Conditioning Cream, and Redken All Soft Heavy Cream. Those last two I blame on members here *cough* @CodeRed and @SuchaLady *cough* I can't wait to try these.
