Snapshot: What I’m Using – August 2020

I recently bundled in a snapshot of what I’m currently using with my length check from May and it all seemed pretty reasonable. But I don’t know what has happened since, I feel like I’m using every product I have in the house and I just need to get on top of this before I get overwhelmed.

As much as I try to justify my product junkie ways, I feel it’s getting a little out of hand and I need to KISS.

Keep

It

Simple

Stupid

Yes, it is a stupid little corporate saying but honestly, my product cupboard is far from simple. Actually, that’s a lie – it’s product cupboards (plural).

But as far as I’m concerned, waste not, want not. I wanted all these products at one point. I don’t think any of them are particularly harmful or super bad for my skin and hair. So the plan is to use them all up and replace them with the things I love or are at least, are more considered purchases. I just have too much stuff all at once and it almost feels like a chore, the idea of going through it all, using it all, reviewing it all. As my hair and my kid’s hair gets longer, I need this hair journey to feel as easy as possible or there may be some significant haircuts in our future. And don’t get me started on skin because I don’t even know where to start.

What I’m actually using day to day isn’t too crazy but wooo! My cupboards are bursting!

Anywho, this is what we have on rotation at the mo (If you’ve used any of these and liked or disliked them, please do share – the more you know!) –
