PJ's CHALLENGE: Just USE IT UP!!!

Yesterday I finished off a liter of Mane N Tail original conditioner.

I had another waiting in line to be used. That is the last one I have. (I got them ata BOGO free sale).

It actually feels odd not having several in stock. :look: I am a true PJ. Not having extras makes me want to run to the BSS to get more. :look:

Dare I ask....? :blush: How did you like the Mega Silk?

I really liked it a lot. I first started using it as my after relaxer deep conditioner and it worked well. Now that I'm natural, it works good too, but sometimes I had to add something to it to make it a little thinner so it could smooth through my hair.

I'd definitely recommend it, but I won't be repurchasing because I like the cholesterol better and I also want to try some of the Revive and Restore conditioners.
 
I slipped up over the weekend. I bought more DC---Joico Moisture Recovery Treatment Balm. I also bought liters of my S/C but I don't count that, b/c I needed it :look: But not the Balm...To balance it out, I'm going to wait until I am done w/my other DC before I use it. I think that's fair, don't you?? :lol:
 
Going to mail my SALERM products, except for SALERM 21, to my best friend tomorrow.

Just got rid of some old products that I knew I would not ever use. Maybe there is a little hope ????? :look:
 
I would participate in this challenge but my pjism just started up again. However, I have been pulling out old products and using them again. Now, I wonder why I stopped using them in the first place. So, I will see what I can use up over the next couple of months.
 
I used up the last of my Elasta QP Recovery Oil Moisturizer and threw away some Motions Nourish Leave-In because it was making my hair too hard.
 
Last night I used up my Kemi Oyl and finally finished my big bottle of TRESemme Vitamin E Moisture Rich conditioner.

This morning I returned 3 conditioners and two bottles of leave-in. I'm also returning some more conditioners to the store later on today.

I returned two bottles of leave-in conditioner earlier this week as well. I am trying sooo hard to get my stash down.
 
I returned some conditioner this weekend and gave my mother a tub of cholesterol. I feel a little better now, the things I have in my stash I am actually looking forward to using, they're not just there for my Use It Up purposes.

I am finally getting to this point also. It's a good feeling!!!
 
I finished up my bottle of Hello Hydration shampoo. I was sad to see it go because I think it may be a staple, but I have other shampoos I want to try before I completely decide.

This morning I returned 3 deep conditioners and 2 leave-ins. I exchanged some items, but I replaced them with staples. I also put some unwanted items in the bathroom, so hopefully my family members will use them up for me. :lachen:
 
Returned 8 conditioners, a leave-in, and a jar of gel to the store over the weekend. Used up my Garnier Long and Strong and Sleek and Shine conditioners and finished off the last of my Nexxus Botanoil Shampoo.

Bought 5 products over the last 2 days though.
 
We're moving soon and I couldn't see packing up a bunch of stuff I didn't even like so I threw away anything that was less than half full. I still have 50 or so bottles left of which 10 are staples. The rest I divided into two categories; stuff I can use on my braids/twists and stuff I can't.

The whole bathroom feels different. I also cleaned out my medicine cabinent. I had stuff in there that expired in 2002! I'm glad I didn't know that at the height of my PJisms. I'd have brought even more products!
 
So far so good for me this month. I haven't bought any hair products. I'm 3/4 of the way through a tub of 10 En 1, and have one tub left.

Okay, maybe I deserved one whack, but hear me out before you whack again.

I finished some Aussie 3MM and a Pantene deep conditioner treatment last night. And I may throw out a shady bottle of shampoo. So I'm almost even.

Thank-you Sareca ! I am so quick to type and submit--didn't even catch that. B_Phlyy girl go head with your bad self :)
 
Used up all of my liter size of RUSK Smoother leave-in conditioner. Been co-washing almost everyday. Went to the mall today, since I used up the RUSK Smoother------ Sebastian Detangling Milk and Biolage Hydra Seal leave-in cream were calling my name. ;)
 
Okay, tonight I tossed a couple of products I never really liked and will never use again. I have some products I'm going to donate to a women's shelter and 6 products to return to Wal-Mart. I'm trying desperately to take this pjism bull by the horns. :hammer:
 
I haven't used up anything yet but I am close on a few products. I am loving the co-washes and it's helping me use up my conditioners. :yep:

ohhh weeee....Welcome Welcome!
 
Finished up some L'Oreal conditioner and threw away some TRESemme shampoo that didn't work. I'm finding that my hair responses better to oils, grease, and lotion/cream type moisturizers, so I may return some more sprays to the store.
 
I haven't been to the BSS so far but I haven't used up anything either. Goes to show I can survive ;-)

Welcome OoBrittany! I got cha' added.
(Going to read "Have you cleaned out your stash...")
 
Does anyone have any creative ways to use up s-curl? I have an 8 oz bottle that I've used a couple of spritzes out of, but I don't really like it.
