L'Oreal Paris ELVIVE Extraordinary Clay Dry Shampoo Review

I wish could say I loved this Clay Dry Shampoo as much as the other 3 products on this range. However this was not the case. Once applied to my hair as per the instructions it left my hair very damp and my hair still looked a little oily when it had dried and I had brushed it. On a positive it didn't leave any residue my hair which I love and smells fresh and clean.

I was lucky enough to be selected to trial this range thank you BR. I have very oily roots so was eager to see if this could make a difference. I typically have to wash my hair every second day.

I was so excited for this product as I've been experimenting with dry shampoos. It comes in a aqua colored spray bottle and has a mild hairspray like scent too it.

It is simple to use by spraying on your roots from a distance, leaving for two minutes and the brush through.

I had to use this on the third day, at first it definitely felt like it dried up my oily roots but within a short time frame, my roots went back to looking heavy and oily. I had to use this multiple times throughout the day which was a huge disappointment.

I sadly would not recommend this product and will not be purchasing.

The dry shampoo is my least favourite of the clay range. Like the other products in the range, the product looks awesome, is very eye catching and is easy to read. It has a very refreshing scent and made my hair smell clean. There was a slight white powdery residue in my hair which took quite a bit of brushing to get rid of. In the end it did work, it got rid of the oil that was in around my scalp. However, I probably wouldn’t use it again as my usual dry shampoo does a better job (no white residue).

I have never really got onto the dry shampoo band wagon before mainly because I have always had to wash my hair almost every day so never needed it. Most dry shampoos also leave me with white residue in my hair as I have dark brown hair so I have to make sure I get all the white marks out of my hair. This dry shampoo has very nice packaging with the teal colour. This dry shampoo doesn’t leave my hair with any white residue which is a first for me with a dry shampoo. It gave my hair a nice fresh scent like it has been freshly cleaned. The instructions say to spray at roots and then let it settle in for two minutes before giving your hair a brush. I found that this really helped with oiliness in my roots and made my hair looked clean and gave me some volume back in my hair. I think next time I need to get a dry shampoo I will purchase this one.

I was super excited to try this dry shampoo, I always have an issue with white residue on my dark hair so was really hoping this would come with no residue!

The packaging is pleasant enough and I really like the size. I can happily say that I had no issue with residue! The product smells nice and fresh and sprays in easily but unfortunately it didn't help with the oil in my hair. I can't really rate it on much other than it smelling nice and refreshing which I did enjoy.

The other items in this range are great so it's a shame!

I literally squealed when I opened the package and it came with dry shampoo as I'd run out of my regular one.

However, I was super disappointed as I found it did nothing but make my hair smell nice :(

As a regular user of dry shampoo I was excited for a new and more affordable alternative but unfortunately this did nothing for me :(

I was so excited to be picked to trial this range of clay products. I think the packaging is lovely and bright and would stand out on the supermarket shelf. I think it smells really nice and is great to use after a gym workout before I start work as I don't have time to wash, dry and straighten my hair before I start my shift. It definitely freshens my hair up and doesn't leave a white residue like other dry shampoo ranges. It isn't the best dry shampoo I've ever used but it is still a good product and if I saw it at the supermarket and was on special I'd definitely grab some.

During the trial for this range the Dry Shampoo is what I was most excited to try, but unfortunately this was a flop for me. This claims to be specifically for oily thin hair, which mine is on my top half of my hair. Due to my oily roots I need to wash my hair everyday, but due to my damaged ends I usually succumb to tying it up for 2 days then washing. I so desperately wanted this to be the answer to my hairs woes. I can't honestly say that it made my hair feel refreshed in any other way than smelling good. I sprayed this into my roots, massaged it in, left it a couple if minutes and gently brushed it out, as recommend. I was left with hair that looked stale, weighed down and somewhat dull where it was applied, but hey it smelt good. The cost of this product is maybe a telling sign, for $7 bucks a can it is a nice cheap scent for the hair but nothing more. I won't be purchasing this again & my hunt for the perfect product between washes continues.

I am not a regular dry shampoo user. I normally just wash my hair rather than try to salvage it with dry shampoo. And I hate the white marks I'm left with when I try and use it.

This dry shampoo didn't seem as 'dry'. When I gave my hair a spray, it freshened it without leaving white patches. I preferred the feeling this dry shampoo has - it wasn't as powdery and grippy feeling, it seemed more smooth? If that even makes sense? Sometimes after other dry shampoos my hair can become stiff like I've used hairspray but this one left my hair smooth and soft.

I found I could only use this once to reduce the oilyness of my hair, which worked for about 24 hours, a second try after that didn't really seem to refresh my hair and it started to feel heavy and dirty.

I liked it to freshen my hair but I don't use much, or very often so one can will last me a long time.

I am a dry shampoo devotee, and I'm always keen to try new brands. So I was really excited to try the L'Oreal ELVIVE Extraordinary Clay Dry Shampoo. I have oily roots and dry ends, and normally use dry shampoo every other day. This product was ok, but not as good as some of the other products i've tried in the past. It has a fresh scent, and white in colour. It would be a good option for someone that it is sensitive to fragrance, or someone wanting gender neutral option (as I find most dry shampoos are very sweet or floral). It was great for most of my hair, but I found for my side-fringe it just didn't get all of the oil dealt with, so there was a slight limp appearance.

In terms of price point - it is slightly cheaper than other options. I would repurchase in a pinch, if I needed a product but there were not other dry shampoo options available.
