Kristin Ess Travel-Size Dry Shampoo Powder for Oily Hair — Fresh Pear, Non-Aerosol, Color-Safe Volume

A compact, non-aerosol dry shampoo powder that soaks up oil, refreshes roots, and adds natural lift with a light fresh pear scent.

This travel-size Kristin Ess Dry Shampoo Powder is designed to revive hair between washes without weighing strands down or leaving a chalky residue. Formulated with arrowroot powder and rice starch, it mattifies and adds instant volume while remaining talc-free, sulfate-free, vegan, and color safe. The pump dispenses a focused dusting so you can target oily roots and extend styles on every hair type and color.

How quickly does it refresh oily roots?

Results are immediate: the powder absorbs excess sebum and neutralizes odor, making hair look and feel cleaner in seconds. Because it’s a focused, non-aerosol application, you can refresh only the areas you need without disturbing your style.

• Targeted pump delivers lightweight powder to roots.
• Arrowroot powder absorbs oil fast for instant mattifying.
• Rice starch provides texture and lift without stiffness.

Will it show on dark or color-treated hair?

Kristin Ess formulated this powder to blend into a wide range of hair colors, minimizing visible white cast. A little goes a long way: start with a small dose, then massage or pat in to distribute evenly and avoid buildup.

• Lightweight, finely milled formula for even blending.
• Color-safe ingredients to protect dyed hair and highlights.
• Best used sparingly and blended with fingertips or a brush.

How does it affect volume and style longevity?

The powder lifts roots and adds texture, helping hairstyles hold longer between washes. It’s ideal for refreshing second-day blowouts, adding grip for updos, or giving fine hair visible body without any crunchy finish.

• Creates root lift and natural-looking volume.
• Mattifies oily areas to restore shape and movement.
• Non-aerosol application preserves style structure during touch-ups.

What’s the best way to use this travel-size pump?

Apply only to dry hair. Press the pump to deposit a small amount at the roots, then rub in with fingertips or pat with a flat palm until any visible powder disappears. For extra lift, flip your head and work the powder into the roots.

• Use on completely dry hair; avoid wet or damp strands.
• Begin with a light application and layer if needed.
• Massage or pat to blend; flip hair for added root volume.

Who is this for: travelers, busy professionals, and anyone who wants a compact, effective dry shampoo that refreshes oily roots, adds natural volume, and blends on multiple hair colors. It’s especially useful for people who prefer non-aerosol styling products, those with color-treated hair, and anyone seeking a lightweight, vegan, talc-free option to extend hairstyles between washes.
