My name is lamaria and I'm addicted to coconut oil. I have 4 different jars in my house right now. I keep 2 in the bathroom (one me n my family use in place of conventional lotion, and one is for medicinal use like cuts n scrapes *3 boys) I have one in my kitchen for cooking and one in my stash for hair care. I feel better
 
Good grief I have not updated in a long while. I used up a jar of Spectrum EVCO and a 32oz bottle of Redken Smoothdown Conditioner so far and almost done with my last bottle of v05 Free Me Freesia.

I really need to clarify and deep condition my hair right about now. I haven't DCed in almost 2 weeks:nono: and my hair is screaming "I NEED PROTEIN."
 
I hate when theres just a lil bit of product left in a bottle, you've turned it upside down to get everything and the dern thing takes forever to finish !!!!

thats my struggle with this purabody muru muru moisture milk :fistshake:

Mocha silk detangles great but the smell? :nono: Not what I expected at all.

whatchu talkin about ? I love the smell .... prolly the only reason why Im inclined to give it a chance. Unlike DBs transitioning cream ..... yukkkkk ...... I threw that mess away, nothing cud mask that smell lol

Ok so I've come in here to fess up, I've been a :badgirl::hide:

I already bought my purchase of the month a couple of weeks. I've been wanting to try the Mizani supreme oil line for a looong time, I see an ad pop up with the whole line for like $34.98 which is less than half price ($74.00) in the UK I can get this set for £65.

http://www.ensleybeautysupply.com/Product/5176/Mizani-Supreme-Oil-System-Combo.aspx
Even with the $26.00 shipping, I'm still saving £25 I just couldn't resist :blush: This line is really expensive over here, the individual items retail from between £18.50 - £22 at the cheapest vendor I've found over here so as you can see I've made a huge saving and I'm totally :busted:

I need to redeem myself! The whole point of joining this challenge was to use up the stuff I've already got not add to it: I intend to forfeit my next month's purchase and I don't intend to start using the Mizani until I have significantly reduced my stash by about 20 products (or more), so I'm probably looking at summertime. I also want to use the line exclusively to see how it works for me, I'm looking for HGs and staples.

Although the pack contains 4 items, as it is a single purchase, does it count as one purchase or 4 separate purchases? :look:
 
Gave a bottle of Bask Silk & Honey Latte and CR Curl Love Milk away.

I am working through another bottle of each. Once used up will not repurchase.

4 separate ones as it's 4 products,.
Girl i heard that Mizani Oil has awful ingredients ,mineral oil,cones,glycols, isopropyl mysriate ...
 
LOL @SimJam. My BF is a mess!! He calls me a product hoarder! He asked me one day how would I know if certain products really work over time if I have so many...that's when I decided it's time for me to decide on some staples.

@lovestarr- I had the same thought this week, in terms of growth aids, topical and oral. Some product gave me great thickness and some length last year (before I slacked off) but I don't know what is was - so I have to try to put all of the products i used and took back in rotation. Obviously, I already have "the product(s)" which gives me results . So if I keep jumping like a grasshopper from product to product I will keep wasting money on products,

My goal is to use every topical product I have and take every supplement I have before I purchase ANYTHING else - excluding staples such as MN, EVOO, EVCO, SULFUR, multivitamin, HSN, bamboo extract, vitamin d, b-complex, etc.) AND use the money I save to help fund my EOY vacation cruise.:yep:

Vitamins/supplements should be a part of this challenge (and so should I :yep:). I bet the real PJs have a serious stash of supplements also.
