Amika Perk Up Plus Extended Clean Dry Shampoo 5.3 oz — AHA-infused oil absorber for invisible, non-greasy root refresh and volume

Amika Perk Up Plus Extended Clean Dry Shampoo is an invisible, AHA-infused spray that soaks up oil, refreshes the scalp, and extends the time between wet washes without leaving a gritty residue.

Designed for daily life when washing isn’t convenient, this 5.3 oz dry shampoo blends mandelic acid (a gentle AHA), rambutan seed extract, and arrowroot powder to lift away excess oil, minimize buildup, and refresh hair texture. The formulation aims for a clean finish — no visible whiteness or gritty feel — while helping scalp balance and preventing odors that can develop between washes. It’s lightweight, suitable for all hair textures, and formulated to feel hydrated rather than stiff.

How does Perk Up Plus actually refresh greasy roots?

Perk Up Plus combines oil-absorbing powders with ingredients that exfoliate and condition the scalp for a cleaner look and feel. The spray targets visible oil at the roots while preserving natural movement and hydration through the lengths.

• Arrowroot powder helps absorb surface oil without chalky residue.
• Mandelic acid gently exfoliates the scalp to reduce buildup.
• Rambutan seed extract supports scalp health and adds conditioning benefits.
• Leaves hair touchable and free from stiffness or obvious powder.

Will it show or leave white marks in darker hair?

This dry shampoo is formulated to be invisible on most shades and hair types; a light hold and breathable finish helps avoid the telltale white cast common in older powders. Shake and apply with short bursts, then massage or brush through for a seamless result.

• Fine, invisible powder disperses evenly at the roots.
• Short spray bursts prevent over-application and visible residue.
• Massage or brush to blend and revive natural color and shine.

How often can I use Perk Up Plus without harming my scalp?

Used as directed, this product extends the interval between washes and is suitable for frequent use when needed. The blend of mandelic acid and scalp-conditioning extracts is aimed at reducing buildup while maintaining scalp comfort, but monitor your scalp response and adjust frequency if you notice dryness or sensitivity.

• Formulated for repeat use to stretch time between shampoo sessions.
• Gentle AHA supports mild exfoliation rather than harsh stripping.
• Conditioning extracts help preserve scalp moisture.

How does Perk Up Plus fit into a styling routine?

Use it as a quick root-refresh before styling to add lift and texture or as a mid-day pick-me-up to tame oil and odor. It pairs well with other Amika styling products and can enhance volume without weighing hair down.

• Spritz roots for instant lift before blow-drying or air-drying.
• Use between washes to maintain shape and absorb excess oil.
• Combines with leave-in conditioners; avoid layering heavy products at roots.

Who is this for: Amika Perk Up Plus Extended Clean Dry Shampoo is for anyone wanting a lightweight, invisible way to extend time between wet washes—ideal for busy schedules, travel, gym days, or anyone seeking oil control without chalky buildup. It’s formulated to work on all hair types and tones while focusing on scalp cleanliness and a natural finish.
