With the summer heat, comes endless ‘beauty’ issues. Running make-up, sunburnt skin, and oily hair all have the ability to ruin a perfectly great summer day. Thankfully, Batiste Dry Shampoo provides one way to beat the summer heat and maintain beautiful, silky, and fresh looking hair.

Product: Batiste Dry Shampoo (Coconut and Exotic: Tropical scent)
Cost: $8.99 (CAN)
What It Claims: “…bring lifeless, greasy hair back to life”
First Impressions: I was really skeptical about ‘dry shampoo’. I’ve had some less than stellar results with other dry shampoo brands. Yet, after being convinced that Batiste was the go-to dry shampoo, I opted to give it a try.
Review: First and foremost, the product smells great. The tropical scent (coconut, in this case) is lovely for a dry shampoo. In order to use, you must hold it a couple inches away from your roots and spray. While spraying, massage into roots to evenly distribute the product. This is probably the most important step! If you just spray and leave it, it ends up leaving white streaks within your hair that are hard to brush out.
The packaging is very cute and colourful!
This product allows the user more ‘time’ – whether you’re too busy at work, or too busy enjoying the summer weather – Batiste dry shampoo gives you your time back. I found the product easy to use, and it truly worked. It didn’t leave behind a residue (IF you remember to massage it in) and it absorbed the dirt and oil that sometimes can be left behind after a summer day. I found it provided a minimal amount of extra boost to the hair, which is great for someone with such flat hair as myself.
Verdict: Definitely a good summer staple that really works well in the hot summer months. Great time saver! Great for camping trips, late summer nights, and the happenstance that your hot water heater breaks! (oops!)
