Description
For those of us with oily scalps, it's hard to go even two days without washing our hair. Save yourself a little time in the morning by using this at the root to replenish volume and soak up oils.
How to apply:
1. Apply to clean or dirty hair at the root (do not apply to wet hair!)
2. Gently tab your root area using a flat palm to make any visible powder instantly disappear.
Tip: if you ever over-do it with a shine product, just add a little bit of this and tap it in.

Soaks up oil well, but leaves a very prominant white cast on my dark hair, despite brushing it out or blending it in. I do love that it is aerosol free and fragrance free though.

Buy it if you need grey hair for your cosplay
The product does absorb oil decently, however, I do find numerous issues with it. Firstly, the pump doesn’t spread product, it is very messy. Secondly, the product leaves almost like an extremely dusty residue. And above all, it shows on dark hair. My hair is dark brown almost black and the powder does not go away or hide. I usually put dry shampoo on the night before so that in my sleep the excess shakes off, typically this works perfectly for any other product/brand, but not with this. No matter how much brushing, shaking, patting I do it stays and makes my hair look grey. Would not recommend to anyone with hair darker than light brown. It would be great for a cosplaying that you have grey hair!

A clean, scent-free dry shampoo that refreshes hai
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Fragrance-Free Dry Shampoo Powder is a total game-changer for refreshing hair without any overpowering scent. It absorbs oil quickly, adds light volume, and leaves hair looking clean and natural. I love that it’s gentle on the scalp and perfect for sensitive skin or those who prefer fragrance-free products. The powder blends seamlessly without leaving a white cast, making it easy to use on all hair types. It’s a simple, effective solution for extending wash days while keeping hair fresh and healthy.

Scent free!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It's really fragrance free which is a great plus. Too many products say they are but still have a smell. The pump is amazing and very easy to use. The only downside is that it did leak a bit before arrival. Works well for a dry shampoo

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is perfect for the days where your hair is oily and you need something to help the oil and the fragrance smells so good although it looks like it’s leaves residue but once you move it around you don’t see the residue anymore absorbed very easily. It has a beautiful scentalmost like

Did not work
Doesn’t absorb in your hair you have to use more than 10 pumps of product, leaves a white residue, is messy, and if it falls on clothes it stains it. Not convenient at all.

unique packaging. Messy moments
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The packaging is unique, but it gets everywhere, making it messy. The uneven applications are also a downside, even when I’m careful about where I pump. I think I’ll stick with my dry shampoo spray for now.

I am impressed
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This applicator is EVERYTHING and the product is absorbed almost immediately with no residue. There's really no scent besides a clean powdered smelll.

Miss for me
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I had high hopes for this product. I have been looking for a great powder dry shampoo as I am trying to move away from aerosols. I thought the pump applicator was awkward at first, but it’s actually the part I most enjoy about this product. The pump is easy to place product either in your hand or spray onto hair with accuracy. However, it did not work in removing oil or shine from my hair. Overall a miss for me. [I received this product in exchange for my honest review]

Not Quite What I Hoped For
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I really wanted to love this, but it didn’t work as well for me as I hoped. The texture is very silky, which might be great for some, but I found it didn’t add any grit or volume to my hair. My hair didn’t feel particularly refreshed after using it. On the plus side, I do really like the way it’s dispensed—the pump is easy to use and delivers the product evenly without making a mess. Overall, it’s not bad, but I’ll probably try something else next time.

Good dry shampoo
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The powder was indeed free of what seemed to be added fragrance but it did still have a slight smell unlike other powders. It worked well and absorbed oil from my roots.

Good but does not blend in well
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Great alternative to my spray dry shampoo! This does make my hair look clean and is light, fragrance free, and does not leave residue on my hair. My only complaint would be that it is difficult to blend the white in, especially on my dark hair, which definitely limits the use of this product.
