Amika Perk Up Dry Shampoo
I recently attended the America’s Beauty Show in Chicago. It was a whirlwind weekend filled with billowing hair spray clouds, bumping music, runway shows, & flashy stage demonstrations! So yeah, it was fun!
I did come home with some fun new products to add to my ever growing stash of hair & makeup goodies!
I spent a lot of time at the Amika booth and bought several of their products to try.
Here is my take on their Perk Up Dry Shampoo....
First Impressions
Smell: is very nice! It is floral but not super flowery. Soft & sweet without being to powerful.
Application: It is super easy to apply, just section hair and spray at roots from 8-12” away. Let dry for a minute or so and then finger or brush through hair as desired.
I will say that they claim this product will NOT leave a white residue on dark hair. But I have found that it does leave a sight chalky white residue right after application. However this seems to disappear after a few minutes or once you brush though it.
Does it work? Yes, I think this product does what it claims. It does ‘perk up’ the hair, it absorbs oils, & leaves a nice soft scent.
Overall impression
I really do like this product. It works and smells great. I can’t ask for much for then that. Unlike other dry shampoos I was able to extend my hair style for an extra day with this product. Usually I can only go a day maybe two between washes with other products before my hair just looses all style & body. With Perk Up I was able to go two to three days in-between washes while still feeling like my hair looked fresh.
I have several other Amika products, which I will also review eventually. Just so everyone is aware, all the Amika products have the same scent / ingredient. They call it “super-fruit” Sea Buckthorn Berry. So, make sure you like the scent otherwise you won’t be happy with any of their products, smell-wise!
