Pharmacy Find: Batiste Coloured Dry Shampoo

I love dry shampoo. I think it's even better than sliced bread because of the following reasons a) it helps you get another wear out of your blow-dry, b) it allows you to easily add some matted texture to clean hair if you're looking to create an up 'do that will stay in place and c) it even pumps up the volume, making it a saviour for those with few and far-between strands.

My only complaint is that it can often leave a white powdery residue in your hair. Handy if you're looking for youths to give up their seat on the bus for you, not so much when you're looking to impress The Hot Guy.

But, as always, Batiste has come to the rescue with its latest launch. Batiste Coloured Dry Shampoo ($12.95) is available in two shades: Brunette and Black. It's the exact same formulation that we know and love, it just has a shot of colour in to rid us of that whole working-on-a-construction-site look. LOVE.
