Powder / non spray dry shampoo

Please can anyone recommend a good non-spray dry shampoo? I am usually a Batiste devotee but need to get rid of aerosols and am searching for an alternative. My hair is blonde and fine with a tendency to go flat and oily at the roots.

Talc.

Sprinkle some in your hands, rub together and then comb through hair using fingers.

Repeat if necessary.

I have black hair and doing it this way means no build up, no grey tinge either.

Particularly interested in thoughts on this L’Occitane dry shampoo if anyone has tried it: uk.loccitane.com/purifying-freshness-dry-shampoo-mist,83,1,29803,1662619.htm

There are a few on this page. The got2b one is great but tbh they are all pretty much the same. Search 'volume powder' not dry shampoo

I like the got2be one in the purple " shaker" cheap and effective on my fine hair, and doesn't weigh it down

I also second talc.

I was bought loads for my kids when they were babies and used it as dry shampoo for myself instead. I also have dark hair and it was fine.

This! I couldn't believe how well it works.

Batiste do a powder one - it has a handy nozzle for dispensing the powder exactly where you want it. Also it is unscented.

Cornflour.
I wouldn't use talc because it's not good to inhale it
