The Importance of Non-Aerosol

Raise your hand if you love dry shampoo (and maybe a little too much, LOL)! Well, we are right there with you! Dry shampoo is a great way to give your hair the perfect “pick me up” in just a few seconds. Simply massage the product into your roots and…BAM! Your hair looks as fresh as wash day!

We at Clean Beauty Boutique love dry shampoo, especially since it’s an eco-friendly alternative, as well. Did you know that the average human uses 2.5 to 5 gallons of heated water in the shower per minute? Using dry shampoo is a great way to minimize your usual shower time and save energy and water, while increasing sustainability. However, you have to be cautious of the ingredients in the dry shampoo you typically reach for. 

In spray dry shampoos, you may see “propellant” listed amongst the other ingredients. Propellants, including propane and butane, expel the product out of the bottle – However, trust us when we say that that is NOT something you want to be ingesting. For more perspective, butane is typically used as fuel for cigarette lighters and portable stoves – So, do you really want that touching your hair and scalp, as well as flowing down your shower drain and out into our environment? The best option is to use a non-aerosol dry shampoo and our personal ~fav~ is Innersense’s Refresh Dry Shampoo!

Innersense’s Refresh Dry Shampoo uses a foam-to-powder formula that eliminates oil, refreshes “next-day” hair, cleans your scalp and builds texture, all without those harmful propellants typically found in sprays. This dry shampoo works on all hair types and contains natural ingredients like tapioca starch (which reduces the heavy, greasy feel), bitter orange (which adds a natural, delicate scent) and pullulan (which provides a shiny, flexible hold). Simply shake the bottle and take 1-2 pumps into the palms of your hands to massage into your hair. You and your hair will be thanking us later once you give non-aerosol products a try!
