    Yes, you can get it in Boots, well in the bigger branches such as Stephens Green and Liffey Valley.

    Batiste is the best known brand, but personally I prefer the Lee Stafford one (pink canister).

    Try it out before EP though, your hair will look awful if you put too much on :)

    Boots in Dundrum are out of all dry shampoo. I tried there last night, and completely forgot about the pharmacy on the third floor.

    ...So I went home and gave talc a go. I don't think it's as effective but if you're really stuck, it's no harm to use it. Be careful if you've dark hair (like me :rolleyes:) though, too much and it'll look like you've a dandruff problem.

    Found a great site a few months ago - it's an Irish beauty blog. This one should help you out- http://beaut.ie/blog/?p=5043

    I <3 Liffey Valley Boots. I guess they're sold out thanks to EP :-)

    Batiste is in most boots, on a bottom shelf tho!

    Ifs not too good if you have dark hair like me tho, makes me look gray!

    My friend has blonde hair and works great for her, and also adds loadsa body to her hair too

    Batiste ftw. You can get it in any chemist aswell. And I think bumble and bumble do a powder thats like talc that you rub into your hair and pat off with tissue.

    You must be spraying too much on or holding the can too close to your head. I have dark brown hair and I did end up making my hair look grey the first time I used it but it works fine now. And you need to vigorously rub it in for at least 1 minute.

    James Brown does a dry shampoo in his range. It comes in a small aerosol and it's only €3 in Boots. I used it at a music festival in Belgium and it's a life saver! :) Does smell a bit, well, manly but that fades fairly quickly. Just make sure to brush it through your hair thoroughly and you're good to go!

    the lee stafford dry shampoo is a complete life saver!:D

    Hmm the James Brown range is fantastic, I must try and get hold of the dry shampoo.
    Lee Stafford is my favourite one, though.
