As someone with persistently oily roots, dry shampoo has always been a non-negotiable in my routine. I use it constantly—after workouts, before Zoom calls, when stretching a blowout. But as I’ve been trying to make cleaner swaps for my health across my beauty routine, one product I couldn’t seem to replace was my go-to aerosol dry shampoo. That is, until I tried Ceremonia's Dry Shampoo con Arrowroot ($28).

A Clean Formula That Doesn’t Sacrifice Performance

This non-aerosol formula is everything I’ve been searching for: it’s benzene-free, talc-free, alcohol-free and made with 91 percent natural ingredients like arrowroot, Brazilian clays and Mexican aloe vera. The combo soaks up oil like a pro without drying out my scalp or leaving behind that telltale chalky residue.

The Pouf I Didn’t Know I Needed

Instead of a typical spray, Ceremonia uses a twist-and-tap pouf applicator that delivers the powder exactly where you need it—no mess, no cloud of product. It gives me instant volume and a refreshed feel that lasts. I love that it’s gentle enough for my fine strands and easy to control. Plus, it’s compact enough to keep in my gym bag or beach tote without worrying about leaks or travel bans.

The Bottom Line

I never thought I’d be able to break up with my trusty spray, but Ceremonia’s Dry Shampoo con Arrowroot is officially my new go-to. It gives me the oil control and volume I need, with ingredients I feel good about using. If you're also trying to clean up your routine without giving up performance, this one’s worth a try.
