Amika Perk Up Ultra Oil Control Dry Shampoo 2.5oz — extra-oily scalp oil absorption, matte finish

Built specifically for very oily scalps, this 2.5oz dry shampoo ramps up oil-control power to deliver a clean, matte finish between washes. The blend uses root-focused, oil-absorbing ingredients to soak up grease, reduce visible oiliness and neutralize odors so hair looks and feels freshly washed. Clinically tested results showed a majority of users noticed improved oil control after a single use, making it a fast go-to for busy mornings or when you need an extended style life.

How quickly does it refresh greasy roots?

You’ll see and feel a difference within seconds: the spray disperses a fine, dry powder that targets the scalp and root zone to lift away surface oil and restore volume. It leaves a matte, non-sticky finish so hair doesn’t feel powdery or weighed down.

• Instant oil absorption at roots for immediate refresh
• Fine aerosol spray for even, targeted coverage
• Dry, lightweight finish avoids residue buildup

What ingredients help control oil and odor?

The formula combines tapioca starch to absorb excess sebum, bamboo stem extract to help minimize odors, and sea buckthorn-inspired superfruit extract for scalp-friendly revitalization. These elements work together to address oil visually and olfactorily, while keeping the scalp feeling dry and comfortable.

• Tapioca starch: strong oil-absorbing powder for roots
• Bamboo stem extract: helps neutralize unpleasant smells
• Sea buckthorn-derived superfruit: adds revitalizing antioxidants

How should I use it for best results between washes?

Shake the can well, hold it about 8–10 inches from dry hair, and spray directly at the roots in short bursts. Massage or brush gently to distribute the powder, then style as usual—use sparingly at first and add more only where needed to avoid excess product buildup.

• Shake and spray 8–10 inches from roots in short bursts
• Work product in with fingertips or a brush for even coverage
• Use on dry hair only; reapply to oily areas as needed

Will it help extend my style without weighing hair down?

Yes—by removing the oily layer that flattens hair, the dry shampoo restores lift and texture so styles hold longer between wet washes. The ultra-control formula is tuned to avoid heaviness, making it suitable for those who need frequent touch-ups without compromising volume.

• Removes oil that flattens and dulls styles
• Leaves a lightweight matte texture for renewed volume
• Formulated for frequent use on extra-oily scalps
