Why we like it
The Moda Team Review
It solves the two complaints we hear most about dry shampoo: the white cast on dark hair and the gritty buildup by day three. Because it goes on as a liquid mist and dries clear, there is nothing to brush out, which also makes it the easiest dry shampoo to use on curls.
Read full stylist notes
The brunette with a fresh colour who stretches to day three to protect it, but hates the grey, dusty film every aerosol dry shampoo leaves along her part. This is the one that dries clear. Living Proof built Sheer Clean around the idea that dry shampoo should actually clean rather than cover. Instead of adding more starch to soak up oil, the Micellar Bi-phase Cleansing System loosens oil first and then absorbs it, in a liquid mist that dries clear. It is the brand's answer for the clients powder formulas have always let down: dark hair, curls, and anyone refreshing daily.

Moda stylist tipShake until no powder is left at the bottom of the bottle, then let the mist dry fully before you touch your roots. Massaging while damp moves oil around instead of lifting it.
Reviews
Questions? We get them.
Good to know.
The questions we hear most about this product. If yours isn’t here, a real stylist will answer.
Ask ModaIt sprays on wet. Will it ruin my blowout or leave my roots damp?
No. It applies as a fine mist and the alcohol in the formula makes it dry quickly, leaving roots refreshed rather than wet or weighed down. Keep it to the roots and let it dry completely before touching or using heat.
I already own PhD Advanced Clean Dry Shampoo. Do I need Sheer Clean as well?
Yes, if you want a lighter option. Advanced Clean is the stronger aerosol reset for oilier roots. Sheer Clean is a non-aerosol mist for light oil buildup with a fully invisible, weightless finish — better for dark hair, curls and daily use.
Will Sheer Clean give my flat roots some lift like other dry shampoos?
No. Sheer Clean does not add texture or volume — hair moves as it did on wash day. If lift is the goal, Living Proof Full Dry Volume & Texture Spray is the better choice.
Can I use it on curls without brushing them out or causing frizz?
Yes. Apply to the roots only, let the mist dry fully, then gently massage or scrunch with your fingers — there is no need to brush. Over-applying is what can cause frizz, so keep it light and targeted.
There is powder settled at the bottom of my bottle. Is something wrong with it?
No. This is a shake-to-activate formula and the oil-absorbing microspheres settle between uses. Shake extremely well until the liquid looks uniform and no powder is visible, every time, or you will spray mostly liquid.
