What am I doing wrong with dry shampoo?

Every time I buy a bottle of dry shampoo (usually batiste), I get about half way through and it stops spraying out the fine white powder and it seems to almost be wet and doesn't work. It's every single bottle!! I've tried shaking it before use, not shaking it, keeping it somewhere cool, keeping it somewhere a bit warmer but it always does it. Am I doing something wrong??!!

How strange. Definitely shake before use but I've unused batiste for years and never had this issue. Have you tried different versions of batiste?

Don't know about Batiste (when I've felt in need of dry shampoo just delved into an ancient bottle of Imperial Leather talc) but sounds like the spray nozzle might need a rinse?

I’ve had this issue with batiste - particularly if I buy the extra big bottles. Really frustrating!

Glad it's not just me!

I have had before also with big bottles; I buy the smaller ones now; but I realised (when reading your post) that it hasn’t happened since I started keeping them in a drawer in my bedroom (I used to keep them them in the bathroom)
not sure if that applies? If not def go with smaller bottles; v annoying!
