Well-Known Member
Ms. @JJamiah gave me her blessing to start the 2014 UUYSC......

SO HERE IT IS LADIES :grin:

If you don't see your name and want to join, Please thank this post and YOUR IN :yep: . Thanks Ladies and Lets USE IT UP in 2014

Sessions are as follows:
Session 1 - Jan. 1, 2014 - April 30, 2014 IN PROGRESS!
Session 2 - May 1, 2014 - August 31, 2014
Session 3 - Sept. 1, 2014 - December 31, 2014

The Rules:

1. Use the suggested categories or add categories of your own, list your stash within 5 days of joining the challenge. If you have a REALLY Big stash, put in a little at a time. But keep your list updated with the products used, given away, exchanged, etc.

Posting a starting pic of your stash is optional. You can then update this "place holder" as we go along with details of what you have used, sold, exchanged and given away.

2. For each category you can include 1 item for a staple. Mark this item. You can purchase 1 staple item per category to have 1 on hand without using a pass. If you stock up on staples anything beyond 1 item must be put in your stash list.

3. Participants are allowed 1 product purchase per month

4. The idea is to decrease your stash not increase it. You are free to swap, sell, throw away and give away products to your heart’s content as long as the stash is "decreasing". The aim is to be reasonable and realize that we do not need to buy so much stuff but rather be more disciplined with our regiments and learn to establish our staples by actually using the stuff instead of continually buying more !!!

6. Also please check in every 2 weeks to let us all know how it is going and to get support so you do not fall off the challenge.

7. If you fall off the wagon, update your stash list and get back in the game. The idea is to encourage better spending habits, make wise product purchases and to gain discipline in our regimens.


Paste the following info if you’re up for the challenge

1. What are your motivations for joining this challenge?

2. List the products you hope to use up in your stash. Use your own categories.

Suggested Categories:
- Shampoos
- Conditioners
- Deep Conditioners
- Leave Ins/Moisturizers
- Oils & Essential Oils & Butters
- Herbal & Ayurvedic Products
- Styling products
- Other

3. Post a Pic of your "Stash". (Optional)

4. What are your goal(s) for the session
i.e. – reduce my stash by 20%
i.e. – to have 1 shampoo, 2 conditioners, 3 styling products, etc.
[Fill in your goal]

1. What are your motivations for joining this challenge? I'm trying to streamline and keep my stash under control, but I also want strong staples; so, I am still looking out for great moisturizing deep conditioners and ways to incorporate more protein into my regimen for my fine strands. I'm currently on a no-buy, though I've modified the no-buy rules I originally set to make them a little stricter based on the number of products and samples I ran through in 2013. I can't buy anything until Mother's Day unless it is the replenishment of a necessary staple (i.e., I need a cleanser and have none).

Marking my spot. I have a small stash, but have somethings I need to use up and need somewhere to keep me accountable to sticking to using 10 products or less for most of 2014.

I will update my list when I get home.

I wish there was also a thread for shoes, bags, clothes, makeup etc. :lol: I have too much stuff and need to focus on using and de-cluttering in 2014.

4. What are your goal(s) for the session
Session 1 Jan-Apr: I've realised that my stash has diminished somewhat (at this rate I'm gonna get myself kicked out the challenge :look:) I've made a recent purchase of cheap lines I wanted to try which is the only reason I have so much :yep: What this means to me is that last year was not in vain and I hit a good few of my challenge goals. There are lots of products I still want to try so I'll be adding them to my stash at a rate of 1 per month. I feel like I'm in a good place with my stash and have really locked down some staples although some of your stashes have got me drooling, I will not lie :lick: What I would really like are a few holy grails.

Total start count = 78 incl. staples (41 excl. staples) v 76 last year
Current count = 72
Used up = 6
Grey = staple
Red = gone
Blue = monthly purchase pass
Green = give away
Orange = thrown away

Sadly I did. My stash is a bit massive, but hopefully I can trim it down a bit. I'll mostly be going through DC's and Rinsing Condish's. Maybe 1 or 2 moisturizers and a butter if I'm determined lol
