Use 1 buy 1 Challenge 2009 pt.2

good afternoon ladies :)
Thank you rosalind for your kind words :)

I received a reply to my question: she's basically waiting for more shea butter from her supplier who is taking his/her sweet time. She said it is very frustrating.
so let's all hope she gets it soon...after reading the description of sweet thang, I can't wait to get it as well as chai tea.

I've just signed up for the deep conditioning challenge....for those who d/c twice a week..do you use up your products quickly?
 
Do you have any eyeliner tips?

A Steady Hand. A Good Magnifying Mirror and Practice. I have been wearing make-up since I was 18:blush:

I can beat my face to all out fierceness in the Mirror of my Car. People are astonished & amazed..........IK Bad Habit.:ohwell:

I was on this Major Falsh Eyelash Thang a while back, but it got too expensive, thought about 'permanent' ones but decided against it and I returned to Mascara.

Recently, I was preparing to go into a Meeting and I applied Full Mascara while talking to my Secretary without a Mirror and she was looking like:perplexed OMG: How are you doing that????? I would poke myself in the Eye:lachen:

Practice. Practice. Practice. You will be a Make-Up Diva in no time and have all the tricks down to a Science.

Plus............You got Such A Nice Collection and Fun Tools.:grin:
 
^^ It's all about techhnique! All the products in the world won't save you from bad technique! Thanks Ms. Terri. Now I feel more confident that I can go on a no buy and work with the stuff I have!

Thanks red, she has only been oos for a few days, yes i check everyday:look: so i hope she gets her shea soon, her contact is in atl.

Alot of places are closed until after new years, and the stores are empty or say out oos.

Good job che.
 
I'm still using my Raw & Pure Shea Butter and a Little Wheat Germ Oil. Feels Great!

I read in an Article how Wheat Germ Oil is Loaded with Vitamin E, Essential Fatty Acids and Ceramides (so I pulled it back out).

I was using it to do HOTS with and I always add a Splash in my Henna Mix.

So, this may be one of my keeper 'staple oils' too.:yep:

I put my JBCO away and now using the Shea & Wheat Germ Mixture.:yep:
 
Girl, no, but I was going to! But I'm wearing makeup today and might be going out/seeing someone, so I didn't want to go through that whole process. :lol:

I am super excited tho'. :grin:
 
Girl I just noticed you have staples in your siggy. Do you still use Joico and CD?
HA!!! nope. i need to change that. when i was relaxed i swore by joico. i tried to use it a couple months ago and it did nothing. i was so hurt.
i still use and love CD tui shampoo but i dont use the hair butter, leave in and oils anymore. i still have 2 of her smoothies which i really like but i usually use them on my mom as a pre poo.
 
dang, i should have added wheat germ oil to my shea butter mix. oh well. my next mix will just be shea butter, evoo and wheat germ oil.

also my ex just ordered some cocoa butter from texas naturals and he dont know it yet but he is gonna be coming up off a nice chunck of it when it gets here.
 
Ya'll I Need to Ask Everybody that Post Here a Serious Question:think::

If we do this "Challenge" *cough* and I use that word very loosely Next Year......What Would you Personally like to get out of it?

Are you Still "Honestly" Committed to Using Up Stuff?:sekret:

Do you like the "Free Fall" of Topics:dizzy: not necessarily related to Using Up 1 & Buying 1? i.e. make-up, vitamins, clothes? Are Ya'll Okay with that?:look: Should we keep a 'loose' format?

I would like to know what you would like to see in this Thread (if it should continue) in 2010?:yep:

We have all Grown Extremely "Close" and I would like to know what you want to get out of it Next Year.....

Your Honest Feedback/Opinion.:kiss:

*just asking*
 
I love this thread! I don't want it to change! I've learned so much about everything from you ladies!

So, do you like the various conversations, topics? Do you want to it to be a Use 1 Buy 1 and stay on point with that.

Please give more details...........Thanks Charz.:yep:
 
Well I'm going on a no-buy the 1st of the year anyway so the U1B1 is a moot point for me. I like that we discuss multiple topics in here at times, it builds friendships and provides useful info to us all. I think it would make more sense to call it something else though, the name is a bit misleading :lol:

I like that this thread isn't so uptight and I can go off topic a little. Cuz honestly pjism isn't just regarding hair products. It knows no borders and will be something most women deal with. If this thread can lead me to make informed decisions, whether is vitamins, makeup, or whatever then I won't have to spend so much money on trying new things. I'm typing from my bb so sorry for the grammar.

i love this challenge because its so small and it seems like we all really know each other. i like the ramdom topics too:lachen:.
but i really do plan on stopping my pj-ness. like i said before:rolleyes: i plan on sticking to oyin. of course ill still have other conditioners like giovanni and AO. and shea butter and oils. but as far as a brand goes, its all oyin. that is really my ultimate goal as far as products go. sometimes i get overwhelmed(sp?) when i look at my stash. its too much:perplexed
