Used up some Vive Nutri-Force conditioner a few days ago. Then I went to Sally's and picked up a jar of Proclaim Relaxer in Mild, Proclaim Coconut Oil, and a bottle of Silk Elements Revive and Restore Shampoo.
I returned the Coconut Oil though because it just didn't compare to my Softee Coconut Oil.

Tonight I used up some shampoo, conditioner and oil. 
I've been using up a lot of stuff thank goodness. I find all sorts of uses for my products like:
Shampoo: Can double as bath gel and as a cleanser for make-up brushes and sponges.
Conditioner: This is fun to use, since my hair thrives with conditioner, I can be really heavy handed with it. I use it for pre-poos, co-washing, to rinse out henna and good ol' fashioned conditioning. It can also double as shaving cream.
Oil: pre-poos, scalp oil, body oil

I bagged up a bunch of stuff that I am going to give to a women's shelter. These were products that didn't work for me but I was hanging onto hoping that someday they would work. I am also giving some to my mother. I can actually fit all my products into their bins now.

For CO washing, I use about 1/3 of a bottle each time. They just don't last me very long.

I too am boxing up the products I won't use and giving them to a women's transition shelter.
I have done this in the past and they have been very thankful.

Last night I mixed up all of my left over deep conditioners that were sucky. I put in castor, kiwi oils and silk Amino Acids in all of them. I'm going to use them all as pre-poo treatments.
I finished all of my oils; castor, kiwi, Africa's Best...I needed to replenish, so I got Proclaim's Natural 7 oil with Olive oil and I really like it.

This weekend I plan on hennaing, so I'll be going through bottles of cheapie condish during the rinsing process. 
I am also thinking about selling a couple more products too.

Hello all!
I've used up my trial sizes of PM Super Strong 'poo & con...and I haven't bought anything new since last MONTH!!! I'm now on to the last little bit of the Ganier L & S poo/con (maybe a week or 2 left in each bottle...).
It's helping that I've refocused my obsessions elsewhere...Just poking my head in here whenever I use something up has really helped my bank account--as well as cleaned up my apt, LOL!

Well I am sitting here with my DR-11 and I am not even half way finished that jar. I guess I will accept the fact that it will take me awhile before i can really get new something new that I might new. I am waiting on my Mizani NIght cream (needed that) and the Kera Care Oil. (I am an oil junkie)

I used up my CD HHB, and I love it but wanted to try a different moisturizer. My oils are low, only have a couple of ounces left, soooo......For this month I purchased from FNWL: Shealoe Butter, Castor & Jojoba Oils, and henna. I also ordered indigo from http://www.indian-herbs-exporters.com/
It was a toss up between QB Sidr, and Shealoe to try in place of my CD HHB. Since I was purchasing other items from FNWL, shealoe won out.
ETA:Letitia, I like your new avatar and sigi. pic., but I almost didn't know that was you.

That's great! It makes me feel all warm and fuzzy inside.

Thanks. Glad you still knew it was me. (I remember alot of people by their siggy and avatar also.)
I wanted so badly to make an order from FNWL. I wanted to get some EO to add to my products to help use them up quicker. I am such a scent freak! lol

Very well, thanks! I used 50/50 henna to indigo and got delightfully dark. Nothing conditions quite like henna.
I just remembered, I also finished my bottle of WGO too!

Do you have lavender oil, Letitia? It smells so good. I added some to my generic coconut oil from Wal-Mart to help me use it up before I crack open my jar of Spectrum Coconut oil I've heard raves about.

I threw out a CON Nourishing conditoner that I was holding on to. I just did not like it.
I wanted to start on a conditoner that contains no protein and I am going to use a Loreal Vive one that I have in my stash. All the conditioners in my shower have protein in them. Not that it's bad, but in the mix I like having a no-protein one, with no cones within the 1st 3 ingredients. This Loreal Vive is going to last a long time, though.
