batiste 'tones' dry shampoo.

<div style="text-align: center;"></div><div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none; text-align: center;"><span style="color: #666666;">A few years ago I was a huge fan of dry shampoo; it was a complete life saver when my hair was a huge messy grease-bomb and I just could not be bothered to wash it out. However after a while I started to notice my normal Batiste dry shampoo was making my hair look dull and almost grey (<em>eeek!</em>)<em>,</em> so to prevent this '<em>premature ageing</em>' of the hair, I switched to washing my hair more regularly, not using the Batiste product. However, when Batiste sent me their relatively new 'tones' dry shampoo I couldn't wait to try them out, hoping it would solve the 'dull' hair problem!</span></div><div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none; text-align: center;"><span style="color: #666666;">As I have a really weird hair colour- not really blonde but not really brunette- they offered to send me both the blonde and medium to brunette version of the tones shades, so I could pick which one suited my hair better.</span></div><div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEheVDEFiCsD-ApDTVYt4Hz9R0Hdn3qaPnl0rhtsD7-SErpq2tmXPwZxT-Q-I-b9ebR4t2lVEwZO_EUkmOP2vgNBxI0VZ-rPXfIf9HGArjBB3QA3zZntP9k1akOJhEqfiYLgfPM-ZMXpo6kD/s1600/CIMG0951.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><span style="color: #666666;"><img border="0" height="640" i8="true" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEheVDEFiCsD-ApDTVYt4Hz9R0Hdn3qaPnl0rhtsD7-SErpq2tmXPwZxT-Q-I-b9ebR4t2lVEwZO_EUkmOP2vgNBxI0VZ-rPXfIf9HGArjBB3QA3zZntP9k1akOJhEqfiYLgfPM-ZMXpo6kD/s640/CIMG0951.JPG" width="480" /></span></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="color: #666666;">Upon receiving them I immediately sprayed them onto plain white paper to see if their claims of a tinted colour was true...</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhzL5pBaeHZvfVpIMWFTv26ObNBSJVXd1NG0mGWZb2J44as9Z40W3pla05qSV5vuMmPh0xV08tAVsV6gwGqSj9wgBO6zeaLS6n8niS1OirFkiB7HIhRfc-HeLLiK1reutb8coTk3snB6jzo/s1600/CIMG0948.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><span style="color: #666666;"><img border="0" height="528" i8="true" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhzL5pBaeHZvfVpIMWFTv26ObNBSJVXd1NG0mGWZb2J44as9Z40W3pla05qSV5vuMmPh0xV08tAVsV6gwGqSj9wgBO6zeaLS6n8niS1OirFkiB7HIhRfc-HeLLiK1reutb8coTk3snB6jzo/s640/CIMG0948.JPG" width="640" /></span></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="color: #666666;">As you can see they do indeed spray a tint into your hair, although when rubbed into your hair this isn't too noticeable, so no yellow barbie hair here!</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="color: #666666;">These perform in exactly the same way as normal dry shampoo, making your hair fresher and a lot cleaner looking, while not leaving that grey '<em>granny</em>' residue in your hair.</span></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="color: #666666;">I found that the blonde version suited my hair colour more than the brunette version as it brightened up my hair colour, and the darker spray made it look more flat.

I'v seen a lot of people commenting that they like the smell as it is fresh and feminine, but I alsolutely hate it. To me, it is overpowering and way too citrisy and fruity, which I have not come to expect from a moisturiser. It absorbs well and in some cases it is moisturising to the skin, but i did find that when applied over flakey, dry skin, the shimmers settled into the flakes emphasising my dry skin rather than helping it.</span></div><span style="background-color: white; color: #666666; font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"></span><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="background-color: white; color: #666666; font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">When I applied this as a base under my foundation, sometimes it literally made the foundation flake off, which really isnt a good look!</span></div><span style="background-color: white; color: #666666; font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"></span><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="background-color: white; color: #666666; font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">Sorry for the moan, but overall this product really isn't anything special and I would't recommend, so im now looking for a new, really nourishing moisturiser which will help my dry skin. Any suggestions??</span></div><span style="background-color: white; color: #666666; font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"></span><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><br /><span style="background-color: white; color: #666666; font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">Thanks for reading!</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="background-color: white; color: #666666; font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">Hannah xxx</span></div>
