2020 Use Up Your Stash Challenge

I cleansed, conditioned and styled again today. I used the Kinky Curly Knot Today leave-in and then followed with Carols Daughter Foam. I have 1 use left of the Knot Today and maybe 1 or 2 uses of the Foam.
 
Each time I go through my stash I get rid of a little more. When the board was thriving I would have created a give away box. Now it just doesn't seem worth the trouble.

I threw out 2 of the Proclaim Masks which were sample sizes. And I threw out the Sauce mask. I'm going to throw out the My Honey Child Type 4 hair cream later. I'm doing too much to make it work. While I'm in that container I will see what else I will toss. I have 3 or 4 edge controls which I don't need. I rarely lay my edges.

I'm slowly whittling things down.

I ran out of TGIN leave-in and Sally's was having a sale so I purchased a few things. I bough the TGIN shampoo and leave-in which will be staples. I also bought a Jane Carter foam and some clips.

I've been cleansing every 3 days and this weekend every day. I'm trying to use up this Redken Cleansing conditioner. Once I get my leave-in, I will get back to using up the Silk Elements foam and the Carol's Daughter foam. That's about all I will be using up any time soon.
 
I thought I was going to use up the Carol's Daughter foam tonight. No such luck. Maybe 1 more use. It's probably the only thing I will use up this month.
 
Finally used up the Carol's Daughter foam. I had no idea foam could last so long. I'm guessing this Silk Elements foam is going to last me 3 or 4 months based on how long it took to use the CD foam.
What do you use foam for? I have a couple that I sometimes use for my daughter's buns instead of gel but they are going so slowly.

It's my regular styler now. I put on a leave-in, put on the foam and put my hair up in flat twist. Or I do the same when I bun. If you were doing a wng, apply it over the gel. If you are doing some type of set style: rollers, perm rods, etc, it would be used there.

What other styles are you/she wearing?
