Hello friends, I am changing the name of my monthly BUS report to "Project Use It Up". Just thinking it better describes what I am trying to do. Its been awhile since I have done an update. I went on vacation and when I got back a number of things went down. I had a changing of the babies. Isaac went on to big time daycare, so I had to say goodbye (sniff). And I began taking care of my grandson (smile). And then there was some big events that happened with my younger son and his wife. So I just did not feel like blogging too much. Anyway, here is my Project Use It Up report.
Okie dokie, pictured above is the current shampoo I am using, Andalou lavender & biotin. I am about halfway done with it. I smells good and is gentle, but for the most part I don't notice anything special.
I have been using these A La Maison products in the scent Thousand Flowers. I've used about a 1/3 of the soap and probably 1/2 of the lotion. I like the smell which is very light and springy. The lotion is light and absorbs quickly. I like the lotion a lot, but they have discontinued making it. Bummer!
In this picture of products I used up the lavender scented snowflake soap and the blue bottle of lavender lotion. I've only used a 1/4 of the liquid soap.
I finally got my lemon collection out. I am currently using all of these products. The Hugo lotion in the scent Lemon & Bergamot is 3/4 gone. The bar soap is about 1/2 gone. And the lemon shower gel from Germany, I actually have two tubes of it. I've just about finished one tube and will soon be using the second one. As far as the Out of Africa lotion, I am using that as a face cream, I've used maybe a 1/4 of it. And last, but not least, the Deo from Germany (which I LOVE), I've used about a 1/4 of it.
So that is my update. I am so happy with myself because I have not been buying any new products the past month or so. I do look every once in awhile, but I know I have stuff at home so I tell myself not to buy. I have 3 collections yet to get through which are: Coconut, Sea Salt, and Honeysuckle.

I like seeing these posts because they encourage me to use what i have, are thrifty, and you offer opinion on the different products. The La Maison products might be found on ebay or amazon.
Hi Sherry! Thank you for your comment & help. I didn't know I could get A La Maison on Ebay. I've recently become a big fan of Ebay. I also like when other gals post about how they are using up products, it is very encouraging. As for A La Maison, they are still making soap products, they just are no longer making the lotion, which I love. I am connected with A La Maison on Pinterest and they said they are coming out with new scents which is exciting.
