I don’t think I’ve ever posted a beauty pinned and tried, but there’s always a first time, isn’t there?
A few weeks ago, I read this post on South by Northwest and this diy particular beauty hack caught my eye.
I’m blond, with highlights and a few grey hairs. I try not to wash my hair too many times a week and I’m lucky my hair doesn’t get too oily or greasy.
On days when I don’t have time to wash my hair, I use a few sprays of this Kevin Murphy dry shampoo
It works well and smells great. It’s a little expensive, but since I use it infrequently it lasts a long, long time.
So, when I read about a diy dry shampoo, I knew I had to give it a try. There were only 3 ingredients; cornstarch, cinnamon and a few drops of an essential oil (I used lavender). I used a clean little jar and here’s what it looked like when I mixed it up.
I had an extra make up brush (yes, I cleaned it first) to dab on the mixture and I’m happy to say it worked! It blended quite well, smelled just fine and it worked! I’m not 100% sure that I will give up the regular dry shampoo just yet, but I’m glad I found a natural solution that I can make at home and use frequently.
All in all, I would call this one successful Pinned & Tried Beauty Hack!

Thanks for the shoutout! I’m so glad this DIY worked for you 🙂 Definitely not as much volume/texture as you would get with a store-bought dry shampoo, but it’s pretty cool to be able to whip it up yourself, right?
