L'Oreal Paris ELVIVE Extraordinary Clay Dry Shampoo Review

I'm not much of a dry shampoo girl, mostly because I have such oily hair I don't believe anything but a good wash can do the trick.

I use dry shampoo mostly to freshen up between work and going out, or gym and going out.

This shampoo is easy to use and smells nice, I do sort of wish it was more scented, I love the scents of other dry shampoos.

Does it instantly refresh? Well you have to leave it a couple of minutes before brushing through/styling but lets say it's a very quick refresh!

What else did I love? The can is a good size, it doesn't leave residue once brushed through, leaves hair shiny and probably stretches out wash time by at least 24 hours.

I was fortunate to be apart of the beauty review trial for this range and this was a really awesome product.

I was really impressed with this, dare I say I think I like it better than my Batiste dry shampoo? this doesn't leave a weird white film in the hair like the batiste does. Shamefully I have gone almost a whole week without washing my hair due to the magic of this dry shampoo. This dry shampoo is like magic on your hair.

Sadly my nozzle on my dry shampoo has broken and I'm hoping I can fix this cause I loved this dry shampoo and hopefully this was just mine and not a packaging fault!

Unfortunately, out of the 4 products in the range, this is ineffective. The nozzle is at an angle so that totally threw me off when I was pointing at my hair.

The smell is nice, like the other products in this range - but, it didn't really do anything other than weigh down my hair. I waited over 2 minutes before brushing out to give it optimal soaking time but I felt it left a layer on my hair and a residue.

I also had to spray almost half a can because I felt like I was spraying mostly fragrance in the beginning despite shaking up the bottle beforehand.

This product didn't step up for me. It had a nice fragrance and it didn't leave any white cast, however for my hair it didn't seem to refresh or soak up my oily roots. It just didn't compare to other dry shampoos at the same price point. Also due to feeling it wasn't doing the job I tried using more product, which meant that the product was used up quickly.

I found this product really useful on the days I didn’t have time to wash my hair. It added volume and reduced grease. Also didn’t leave any pale residue in my dark hair.

I love the convenience of dry shampoos. Having long thick hair sometimes you just want to leave washing your hair an extra day or two especially in Winter. I received this in a beauty box so I decided to try it out before reinvesting in my usual Batiste dry shampoo.

It comes in a can with a spray nozzle. It's easy to use, shake the can and hold about a quarter of an arm's length away to avoid residue, leave a few minutes and brush out. The scent isn't wonderful but is tolerable if you dont mind fragrance in beauty products.

I was left underwhelmed by this it bearly absorbed any oil from my roots or help achieve a clean fresh look. My hair actually looked slightly greasy so it's not something I would recommend or repurchase in the future.
