Power Powder

They're both powders but with different priorities. The Power Powder is the volume specialist — it gives more volume, texture, and matte hold, ideal for lifting flat roots on fine hair. The Cleansing Powder is more absorbent, working more like a dry shampoo to soak up oil and refresh, with less volume. Choose the Power Powder when your goal is instant root lift and matte texture; choose the Cleansing Powder when you mainly want to de-grease and refresh with a bit of texture.

No — it's formulated to leave no white residue on the hair surface, so it works cleanly even on darker hair. The key is applying a very small amount and working it in well at the roots, rather than tipping a lot on. Used correctly, it disappears into the hair, leaving only the volume and matte texture. It also washes out easily with your regular shampoo.

Start with the tiniest amount — this powder is potent and a little goes a very long way. Tap a small amount onto your fingertips first (rather than shaking it straight from the bottle onto your head, which is hard to control), then rub it into the roots where you want lift. Build up gradually only if you need more. Overapplying can make hair feel dry or gritty, so restraint gives the best, most natural-looking volume. Lift sections and apply underneath the roots for the strongest lift.

Yes — it's great for texturising curls. The powder adds grip and separation that helps define and lift curls, and works to add body at the roots of curly hair too. Use a light hand and work it into the areas that need texture or lift. For a full curl-defining routine, pair it with the Coils & Curls range or the Curlicue Cream; use the Power Powder for extra root volume and texture on top.
