I messed around and watched a video on YouTube the other day about Devacurl Melt Into Moisture and then Ulta sent me a SECOND 20%off code so I HAD to go ahead and buy it. :look:
 
Hi Ladies! Forgot to log on and check in my results. I have minor flare ups for being tempted to buy next products since Im growing my hair back out now but I've been good.

I've finished up 6 products since my last update: OGX Shea Soft & Smooth Shampoo, OGX Coconut Curls Conditioner, Aphogee keratin 2 Minute Reconstructor, S Curl Texturized Spray, Shea Moisture Curl Enhancing Smoothie and Earthbloom Organics Pomegranate Gel.

I' ve added The Doux One Love Co-wash (I hate the bubblegum scent but actually love the product. I like it just as much as As I am's cowash but appreciate that it's black-owned), Camille Rose Naturals Lavender Whipped Creme Leave In ( Wasn't expecting to like it, got it while traveling and I ran out of products but it's BAE). Also got Uncle Funky's Daughter Curly Magic.

@Dayjoy yeah same thing happened to me. I watched KandidKinks review on melt into moisture hair masque and boom...$36 gone to DevaCurl.
 
^^^ She does! I would have kept ignoring that product had I not seen her review.
 
Used up Giovanni L.A styling gel. This stuff is terribly drying and makes my hair rock hard. Will not repurchase.
 
If I make it through today I went all of April without buying anything. I forgot I bought the stuff at the very end of March smh lol. I've been in faux locs so only used up the Soultanicals. They are coming out this weekend though.
 
I only finished 1 item in April and brought in abo 10-12. But they are stuff that I use up regularly so I'm pretty much set until August or September.
 
Finshed off most of my shampoo stash: Redken all soft and Avene smoothing shampoo
Conditioners/DC: Redken all soft, Macadamia professionals DC for dry hair, Avene smoothing conditioner
I have few unfinished DCs left as back up in case my Staples run out.
I was so tempted to get some silk elements products from Sally's today
(they have a buy 1 get 1 deal :cry3:) then I restrained my self lol it's a slippery slope for PJ tendencies.
 
I've been conditioner rinsing and haven't been using much else for the past few months. However, this weekend was my quarterly treatment so I used a few different products. Still didn't use up much. I finished the TGIN Daily Moisturizing Cream. I don't think I will replace this just yet. It works great when I wear my hair straight but that is super rare. I'm still working on the MC leave-in spray. I will try to use that up this week.

I'm at the end of my TGIN DC and Leave-In so I'm going to replace those this week.

Don't think I will be using up anything else for a few months. But I'm moving soon. Maybe I will throw some things out.

I’ve been busy (for me):
  • finished up a bottle of DE Almond and Avocado shampoo, I have four more
  • returned that mess Devacurl Melt Into Moisture back to Ulta
  • finished up Tropic Isle Black Castor Oil Protein conditioner, not replacing, while I liked it we hated our hair smelling like pickles
  • finished up Karen’s Body Beautiful Super Duper Hydrating Hair Cream, I may repurchase if the Qhemet Aethiopika (which arrives tomorrow) doesn’t work out
  • bought and RETURNED Alikay Naturals Shea Yogurt, I got it to replace the KBB SDHHC it it sucked
  • finished up the Safflower infused with olive oil, not replacing, I mixed some JBCO with some avocado oil from my kitchen to replace it
  • finished the Living Proof No Frizz Nourishing Oil, using the Aveda Brilliant Emollient Finishing Gloss now
 
Glad this thread was bumped. I used up a couple things
  • Jamaican Mango an Lime black castor oil (1 left)
  • Tressume moisture nourish conditioner
  • Kinky Kurly Knot Tody leave in (HG product will repurchase)
 
So I found a 30%off coupon for Sally in my purse yesterday that expired yesterday so figured I HAD to use it. My TGIN Honey conditioner was getting low and Mielle Mongongo has been looking htf, so I bought one of each.
 
I forgot to post, but last weekend I finished off Blue Roze Chai Tea DC, NJoy & J. Monique's PrePoo Oils & Sunny Isle Lavender JBCO.

Used up Camille Rose coco nibs & honey oil. I like it I think that was my third bottle so I’ll repurchasewhen I've used all my oils.
