No New Products Challenge

[Ronda123]

Count me in as well...I have too many porducts! I will not be concocting any at home mixtures, but I will use the products that I have purchased. I will only replace staple products that run out, but no trying anything new until I've either used up all my current products or given them away.

Good thing I just bought some new products to try the other day!

The PJ in me will be tempted to buy, but I can do this!

I totally agree with you...count me in!

Hey Cutebajan, spill the beans!! Where did you purchase the goodday pins from?? I may have to send you some money to buy me some, if you don't mind.

 

[GoingBack]

Me most definitely!!! Right after I purchase a bottle of DDTA!

I think it's Daily Defense Tender Apple.

Count me in.....Allandra has given me inspiration ($412 a year) She is my budget idol!!!!

I'm expecting to spend even less this year. So far, I haven't purchased a doggone thing this year. I do have an appointment for a relaxer touch up though.

BTW, how much did you spend in 2004 on hair care products?

Ummmm...that loud thud that you just heard was me falling out of my chair!!!!!! Let's just say that since joining in October I have a small arsenal of products under the sink in both bathrooms, the linen closet in one bathroom....and that's at my SO's home......ummm in my house, I have products under one sink in one bathroom, a milk crate of products waiting to be transported to my SO home, and some miscellaneous things in the trunk of my car and a few products in my office at work....you know just in case....So...with all that said and done, I don't plan on spending any money on anything at least for the next six months....By then, whatever products I have should be used up or expired!!!!

Okay, I fell off this wagon in the last couple of weeks, I went crazy, my credit card was just about maxxed out by the time I was done, I think I've satisfied my craving, IF I COULD JUST GET ONE MORE JAR OF BBD STRETCH I'LL BE SATISFIED!!!

 

[Jewell]

I'm on this challenge for the next year. I have all liter bottles of my Nexxus products, so needless to say, I won't be running out of any of those until about December, if then, because I only use the Nexxus products once a week. The only things I go thru a lot are my daily shampoo and conditioner and my leave-in products like Infusium 23. I have noticed that I buy before I'm done with the product that's already opened, so from now on, I will wait until I actually run out to buy more. That way I can decide whether I want to continue using it or not, and not have to return it or give it away.

I fell of the wagon along with you Girl but I bought 3 jars of the BBD Stretch Creme.

 

[asha]

I'm in on this too...my mtg is waiting for me at the post office and I will not purchase anything new till the challenge is over.

Would you like to make a donation to the oglorious1's BBD stretch fund...you can't use all that stretch by yourself, share the wealth, share the wealth

 

[frankie]

I failed at this challenge...

I bought a Maxiglide (which I'll be returning)
I bought new flat iron spray, and a new leave in conditioner, rollers, hair clips.
I bought the M-T-G, Glover's and some Sulfur-8 once I read about the increased growth the ladies were getting using these products.

I'm sure I could think of more products if I took enough time, but the point is... I FAILED THIS CHALLENGE!!!

Good luck to the rest of you ladies that have just joined and that have been going strong so far!

Here's the details:
Well this challenge is for you!! I have a great online hair buddy that has a motto: "Only purchase hair products when the one's you have are almost gone/completely gone." Make sense to me, how bout you ladies? On to the requirements for participation:

1. Use all the products you have that are beneficial to your hair.
2. No online product purchasing!!
3. Get creative- make your own products with fruit, cooking oils (olive, coconut, grapeseed), etc. Cheaper and you will be amazed at your creative skillz.

Who's with me????

Okay--It is time for me to stop playing around. I got out all my favorite products last night and it was sooo many! Reality is breaking in--- I am officially on the No New Products Challenge---Starting today --right now!!!! I know I can do this!!!!

 

[vickyd]

I didn't notice this thread before. I am in starting today. I will only repurchase products that are working for me and after I have used up the ton of stuff under and on the bathroom cabinet.

Yeah!!!!! I know we can do it! I knew there had to be a product challenge somewhere out there as well. I guess this ends my weekly shopping trip at ULTA and Trade Secret---It was fun while it lasted!

 

[bajanplums1]

I am in too. I gave away most of my products in Dec, so I could start the new year fresh.
My only hair care products for 2005 are:
elucence moisture benefits poo
elucence moisture balancing conditioner
aphogee essential fatty acids oil concentrate
elasta qp mango butter
elucence serious shining spray

protein boosters:
nature's gate jojoba & keratin shampoo

OK I failed. My product list is completely different, but cost less
* botanoil poo ($8)
* aphogee poo for damaged har ($5)
* dpr-11 ($7)
* mane n tail conditioner ($6)

blah, blah, blah. I am a loser, but i don't care, i;m happywith the progress my hair is making. . .
