The Latest Brands of Dry Shampoo

This handy little product can save your look in a pinch, but there are many different brands available and since the category is growing every day, some are not particularly well-known, even by serious beauty product shoppers. Up until recently, dry shampoo has been strictly a utility item – like under-eye concealer, rather than a glamor product. Now that there is more interest in dry shampoo, we are seeing more of them that smell nice, help you look better, and not just tide you over until you can hit the shower. There are premium name products, drugstore bargains, and a range in between. Here’s a quick overview of some of the brands.

	Sephora’s Oscar Blandi Dry Shampoo is noted for its citrus aroma that makes it a good product for those who want to do a quick freshening of the scalp.
	T3 360 Refresh Volumizing Dry Shampoo, this comes in a lighter color and darker color formula. This addresses the problem that some people have with dry shampoos, which is that they leave a visible residue. By having the shade matching formula reduces the residue problem.
	Shampowder dry shampoois another product that comes in different color tones. It bills itself as aerosol free.
	Bumble and Bumble’s Hair Powder comes in colors and is a corn-oat starch based formula.
	Ojon Rub Out Dry Cleanser is a potato-starch based cleanser. It has received good reviews for effectiveness, though some users expressed reservations about the scent. We all know that fragrance preference is a highly individual matter, so only you can tell if the scent works for you or doesn’t.
	Psssssst, is a drugstore brand that has been around at least since the 1970s. It even, still comes with a “groovy” graphic on the label. It is very old school: talc in an aerosol spray can.

Dry shampoo is a growing product category used by everyone from busy traveling businesspeople to ecologically-minded water savers.
