Use 1 Buy 1 Challenge 2009

Will possibly be using up my Aubrey Organics HSR on tomorrow's Hair Day. I plan to rinse & cut the bottle.:look:

Honestly, I prefer the White Camelia and a coupla' of the other AO's i.e. Island Naturals, Aloe & Jojoba.

So HSR probably will NOT be an immediate repurchase:hide:

That will probably be the only thing I use up for this week's Hair Day.

Put a little water in there and shake it up. Good job t.
 
I used up a couple of things this week. I found a small tube of PM Instant Moisture Daily Treatment and used that up. I was also able to finish a bottle of Hydratherma Naturals Moisture Boost shampoo. I have another sample bottle of this but I wouldn't repurchase anytime soon. I like how strong my hair feels when I use it but I have my favorite poos so I'm good. I finished a bottle of Megatek, which I will repurchase but I do have enough for now. That has been great at thickening my hair up.
I'm still working on my Lustrasilk cholesterols and a bottle of Oyin Honey Hemp. I'm slowly but surely reducing inventory. Feels good.
 
Good job all of you, this challenge has been going so good. Everyone keep up the good work. I have not used up anything else so far but my regi is simplified now and that is a good thing.
 
i have about 2 more uses out of my AO GPB. i love that stuff but i wont repurchase until after all my AO conditioners are gone.
 
Good morning ladies, im still here and still haven't used anything but it looks like my bottle of amala cream rinse will be the first to go. This bottle is smaller than the first one i used up. And the s-curl will most likely be in second its getting lower also. Both will be repurchases. I hope everything is going well for you ladies and let's continue to use it up. I know its still a little early but i have decided to repeat this challenge next year. I feel without this that i might go back to my old ways.

I Shudder to think of Myself with 50 million packages waiting outside my door again.:eek:

Thanks for repeating the challenge............
 
Since the challenge began I have used up or given away 27 products. I have bought 7. I will buy when Hairveda puts out the hydrasilica spray and acv rinse and I want to try Giovanni's reconstructor. Otherwise I plan to do a big stock up during the Black Friday sales and again in April or May. LC and I talked about only stocking up 2x/year before she started this challenge and I love the idea so I plan to run with it. Oh yeah during my big stock up I plan to do a Darcy's Botanicals haul.
 
Checking in to say I've used up nothing. Nothing at all. I'm also at the stage where everything is full, so I know it'll be at least a month or two before stuff is used up. I'm not worried about it because I now know I can do this, and it's kinda fun to see a conditioner that I'd forgotten I had :look: (happening so often now). I think the cowashing conditioners will probably be the first to go.
 
I can't believe the only thing I have bought this month so far has been so camellia oil! Wow!

I think that one of the great habits this challenge has encouraged for me has been to only buy products when they are on sale.

Yes shay that's still my plan too. Stock up on my hairveda when the sale comes for the winter. And i found a place on line that sales s-curl in the 32oz bottles so i will get a few of those also before winter. I don't like driving in the winter unless its the grocery store its not that far from me. Those are the only things i will need. And also make sure my jasmines inventory is stocked for the winter. That's it.

Ronnie you keep doing what you've been doing and the stuff will be gone in no time:yep:.
 
I Just Steamed with quite a bit of Honey Suckle Rose. I still have some left in the bottle and will finish that out next week.:look:

That will be about the only thing that is "low" I am pretty much at the same place Ronnieaj is.

Most of the items in my stash are still full 3/4ths full. But Like Shay, I have given alot of stuff away.:yep:

I do have a very small corner left in my Mizani Nighttime Treatment. I did repurchase it. I Just couldn't get down with the Optimum like that.:look: Liked the Mizani Better.

So, If anybody wants a Jar of the Optimum Nighttime Treatment, pm me, and I'll send it to you. (never used--unopened).:blush:

So things are good. No More 50 million Orders to Track and stuff still left in bags. I'm Good.:yep:

*PayPal is prolly wondering what happened to me*:lachen:

What about the mizani is better than the optimum, you know you have to give us all the juice:yep:.

Prolly Nuthin' Girl:look: I just didn't care for the consistency.

Actually on the "Product Twins" Thread, the Optimum far succeeded the Mizani as far as the Quality of the Ingredients.:look:
 
My FH used up one of my Millcreek Conditioners.

He was like "Charlise, do you have anymore of this stuff?"

I was like "What stuff?" :wallbash:

"The Keratin stuff, I think I need some protein." Btw he has like 2a hair......

:laugh:

He's lucky I have more, he should have least told me! I was wondering why my bottle felt a little empty! I can tell he has been using my Moist 24/7 though. He loves berry scents.

Seriously! My ex knew he would get cut. I did give him some CON (green) though. Hhmm I could give him the rest of all of my CON but IDK I would need to see him to do that :look:.

:lachen::lachen::lachen::lachen::lachen:
You made me laugh so hard.

Well my birthday is coming up and all I want from him are hair products lol. I'm just happy that he is sincerely interested in my Haircare Journey and he was so happy when I went natural.

Mail it to him, that way you don't have to see him and your clearing out space. Or do a drive by and throw it on his lawn like the newspaper.
 
He likes to henna his hair now too.:lachen:

And the other day I came home and caught him "drying his hair" under my Pibbs!




:lachen:

That's why I am gonna end up buying the 128 oz Moist 24/7. He likes to spritz some juices and berries in his hair too. He loves berry scents.

I am not even a part of this challenge but I was curious so I dropped in on this thread. When I saw this comment I burst out laughing...that is so hilarious!!!:lachen::lachen::lachen:
