- Maximum Oil Absorption: amika's most powerful dry shampoo yet, designed to eliminate even the heaviest oil and buildup.
- Instant Scalp Clarity: Removes the "greasy" look and feel from the roots while neutralising odours.
- Healthy Scalp Support: Niacinamide works to soothe the scalp, preventing the irritation often caused by excessive oil.
- Weightless Volume: Lifts limp, oily strands to restore bounce and movement without leaving a white residue.
- Style Preservation: Ideal for extending the life of your style after intense workouts or in high-humidity climates.
- Bamboo Stem Extract: A natural, sustainable ingredient that provides superior oil absorption and helps to add volume and texture.
- Niacinamide: Helps to support a healthy scalp environment and regulate sebum production over time.
- Root-Cleansing Complex: A specialized blend of starches that deeply clarifies and refreshes the hair without water.
- Sea Buckthorn (Obliphica): amika’s signature superfruit, rich in Vitamin C, Vitamin A, and Omega 7 to protect and nourish the hair fibre.

- 1. Preparation: Shake the can vigorously before each use.
- 2. Apply: Hold the can approximately 20 centimetres (8 inches) away from the head.
- 3. Section: Part the hair into sections and spray directly onto the oiliest parts of the roots.
- 4. The Wait: Allow the product to sit for 30 to 60 seconds. This wait time is crucial for the Ultra powders to fully encapsulate the oils.
- 5. Massage & Distribute: Massage the product into the scalp with your fingertips or brush it through thoroughly to ensure an invisible finish.
- 6. Pro Tip: This formula is very powerful. Start with less than you think you need and add more only if necessary to avoid over-drying your ends.
How is Ultra different from Perk Up and Perk Up Plus?
Think of it as a scale of intensity. Perk Up is for light refreshing, Perk Up Plus is for extending your clean with scalp care, and Perk Up Ultra is for maximum oil control. If you have a very oily scalp or need a post-gym miracle, Ultra is the one for you.
Will this make my hair feel dry or crunchy?
No. While it is incredibly effective at absorbing oil, it is formulated with Niacinamide and Sea Buckthorn to ensure the hair fibre remains soft and manageable, not stiff or "starchy."
Can I use this on dark hair?
Absolutely. Like the rest of the Perk Up family, the Ultra formula is designed to be translucent and invisible once it has been massaged into the hair, leaving no white cast on dark or coloured hair.
