dry shampoo

I bought some dry shampoo powder to help deal with my hair being extra greasy lately. The ingredients include cocoa powder to make it less visible when used on dark hair. That sounded like a good idea at the time. I suppose it is, if you don't mind smelling cocoa all day long. But in retrospect, I'd prefer having my hair look a tad grayer (from using a light colored powder), to the constant smell of cocoa. Another drawback is the possibility of cocoa stains on my shirt collar or pillowcase.

One reason I bought the dry shampoo is that I thought a scented product would be more pleasant than plain cornstarch. The shampoo is scented nicely with essential oils. But now I'm not sure if that nice scent would distract/bother me too, even without the cocoa.

So now I'm trying plain cornstarch. I didn't have an empty spice bottle to put it in (to make application easier), so I'm instead using one of those small plastic bottles that toothpicks sometimes come in. It too has a perforated lid so that I can shake/sprinkle the powder out.
