Batiste dry shampoo - British girls' hair secret

Let's imagine one day you wake up late. Your hair looks dull and greasy, but there is no time for a quick wash. What would you do?


When I was in UK, I will go and grab my secret weapon - Batiste dry shampoo.

Batiste absorbs oil at the roots of your hair. What you need to do is just spray into your roots and rub them in until they are invisible. Hola and that's it! No wash, no rinse, and no blow dry. Easy! It only take me a minute to get my hair back in shape and ready to go!


It does it job and it is dead cheap - a 200ml bottle costed me £2.50ish and it is always on buy-one-get-one-free in Superdrug. If you prefer bigger bottles, it also comes in a super large bottle of 400ml. It also comes in different smells and packages so you can pick the one you like (Look at that cute Union Jack one in the middle! So adorable!)

If a cheap product works, why bother to throw your cash into expensive product? 

(BTW, Superdrug UK does an own-brand dry shampoo but that one sucks. Don't waste your money on that one!)

But there is an issue - the original Batiste formula is a white powder. If you didn't rub the product enough, your hair will look like covering in salt & pepper.


And the solution is a coloured Bastiste!

I got my bottle in a hint of brunette




It comes with a brunette coloured  product and you can't see it in hair even if you don't rub them in properly.

I still haven't got a clue why I grab the brunette bottle as I got very dark hair, but heyho, that still works on me.  There are no more salt & pepper in my hair :)


I bought my bottle of brunette Batiste with me when I moved back to Hong Kong, but it is running low now. Luckily Batiste is now available in Hong Kong (I think it is around HK$50 for 150ml in Watsons & Mannings, don't quote me if I am wrong lol ). 
But they DO NOT CARRY THE COLOURED ONES HERE!!!! OMG how am I going to survive when my brunette one runs out?
