If your hairline starts to look greasy, dig up a big, fluffy makeup brush, and dip it into a pot of loose powder. Tap it once on the back of your hand to remove the excess, then dust it over your roots. It mops up oil and blends into your strands, so no one will know you didn’t shower.

Yep, this actually does work, but with an exception. Blondes tend to have an easier time with this trick because the powder will blend into the hair more. Brunettes? Um, not so much. What we end up getting is fuzzy gray roots instead. Why? The beige powder mixing with the dark hair makes it look ah, gray.

Instead, try a invisible powder. They’re out there, hard to find, but boy do they work. For both face and hair.

Allison Raffaele made one of the first ones and in my opinion, the best one.

Other ones include:

Hourglass Invisible Powder

Also saw Sally Hansen’s “Pore Minimizing Invisible Powder Treatment“.

• Revolutionary loose powder liquifies on contact to a cooling shine control treatment.
• Mattifies skin and controls shine and oil all day.
• Hydrates skin to restore optimal moisture balance.
• Perfect for setting makeup, or wear alone for a smooth finish.
• Works on all skin tones.
• Dermatologist Tested – Hypoallergenic – Non-Comedogenic – Oil Free.

Okay, may not work on the hair tip, but hey, powder that liquifies? I so gotta try this….
