LumiLok™ TECHNOLOGY

PROTECTED PERFORMANCE. RELEASED ON ACTIVATION.

LumiLok™ is AROVE’s proprietary encapsulation technology, created to protect selected conditioning ingredients before use and release them when the formula is activated with water.

Unlike conventional formulas in which ingredients remain continuously dispersed together, LumiLok™ holds selected ingredients within protective structures until activation. This helps limit premature interaction within the formula and supports controlled, even dispersion during use.

• PROTECTS
Selected conditioning ingredients are held within the LumiLok™ system before activation.

• ACTIVATES
Contact with water transforms the formula and initiates the release of the encapsulated ingredients.

• DISPERSES
The activated ingredients distribute throughout the formula for more consistent application across the hair.

• CONDITIONS
Once released, they help support moisture, softness, manageability and luminous shine without heavy buildup.

AERIOUS is the first water-activated powder shampoo and conditioner powered by
LumiLok™—a new approach to protecting and delivering conditioning performance.

AERIOUS Powder Shampoo FAQs

Frequently Asked Questions About AERIOUS Powder Shampoo

ABOUT THE FORMULA

WHAT IS A WATER-ACTIVATED POWDER SHAMPOO?

A water-activated powder shampoo is a concentrated shampoo made without adding water to the bottle. AERIOUS begins as a lightweight powder and transforms into a creamy cleansing lather when mixed with water in your hands.

IS POWDER SHAMPOO THE SAME AS DRY SHAMPOO?

No. Dry shampoo is generally applied to dry hair to absorb oil between washes and is often left in the hair. AERIOUS is a water-activated shampoo used on wet hair and rinsed out to cleanse the scalp and hair.

IS AERIOUS POWDER SHAMPOO SULFATE-FREE AND SILICONE-FREE?

Yes. AERIOUS is formulated without traditional sulfates or silicones. It is also free from parabens, phthalates, fillers and artificial fragrance.

DOES AERIOUS POWDER SHAMPOO CREATE A LATHER?

Yes. When activated with water, the concentrated powder transforms into a creamy cleansing lather. The amount of lather can vary according to the amount of powder and water used and the amount of oil or product buildup in the hair.

HAIR TYPES AND CLEANSING NEEDS

IS AERIOUS POWDER SHAMPOO SUITABLE FOR ALL HAIR TYPES?

Yes. The customizable formula is suitable for fine, medium, thick, straight, wavy, curly and coily hair. Adjust the amount of powder and water according to your hair's length, density, texture and cleansing needs.

IS AERIOUS POWDER SHAMPOO GOOD FOR FINE HAIR?

Yes. Fine or short hair can use a small amount of powder and water for a lightweight cleanse. The silicone-free formula rinses clean without leaving behind heavy conditioning residue.

IS AERIOUS POWDER SHAMPOO SUITABLE FOR CURLY OR COILY HAIR?

Yes. AERIOUS can be customized for curly, coily and textured hair by adjusting the amount of powder and water. Concentrate the lather on the scalp and roots, then allow it to move gently through the lengths while rinsing.

IS AERIOUS POWDER SHAMPOO SAFE FOR COLOR-TREATED HAIR?

Yes. AERIOUS is color-safe and formulated without traditional sulfate surfactants. Follow your colorist's instructions immediately after a professional color service.

CAN I USE AERIOUS ON BLEACHED OR CHEMICALLY PROCESSED HAIR?

Yes. AERIOUS can be used on bleached, highlighted and chemically processed hair. Customize the amount for your cleansing needs and follow with AERIOUS Powder Conditioner to help restore softness and manageability.

DOES AERIOUS POWDER SHAMPOO REMOVE EXCESS OIL AND PRODUCT BUILDUP?

Yes. The activated lather helps remove excess scalp oil, sweat, styling-product residue, dry shampoo buildup and everyday impurities. A second cleanse can be used when additional buildup removal is needed.

USING POWDER SHAMPOO

HOW DO I USE AERIOUS WATER-ACTIVATED POWDER SHAMPOO?

Dispense a small amount into wet palms, add water and rub your hands together until the powder forms a creamy lather. Massage it into wet hair and scalp, then rinse thoroughly. Complete directions are available in the How to Use section above.

HOW MUCH AERIOUS POWDER SHAMPOO SHOULD I USE?

Start with a small amount and add more only when needed. Fine or short hair generally requires less, while long, thick, curly, coily or heavily styled hair may require more powder and water.

HOW OFTEN SHOULD I USE AERIOUS POWDER SHAMPOO?

Use AERIOUS according to your normal wash schedule and your hair's oil, buildup and styling needs. Adjust the amount used and repeat the cleanse when additional buildup removal is needed.

HOW MANY WASHES DOES ONE BOTTLE PROVIDE?

One 2.3 oz bottle provides up to 85 washes. The total number of uses varies according to hair length, thickness, texture, cleansing needs and the amount used during each wash.

PERFORMANCE, TRAVEL AND BRAND

IS AERIOUS POWDER SHAMPOO TSA-FRIENDLY?

Yes. The compact, waterless powder format is not subject to the standard TSA liquid volume limit. Keep the bottle securely closed and follow current airport screening requirements when traveling.

DOES AROVE TEST AERIOUS POWDER SHAMPOO ON ANIMALS?

No. AROVE does not test AERIOUS Powder Shampoo or its products on animals.

I have fine hair and most products tend to weigh it down

I have fine hair and most products tend to weigh it down. This shampoo has been great for that. I also wear it short & color it & so far it worked great. It took mea couple of tries to get the right amount, it’s much less than I thought. I love that it’s also small, easy to pack & the package is easy to open & close with wet hands.

My hair is so soft after just using the Shampoo

My hair is so soft after just using the Shampoo, I almost felt l I didn't need conditioner. It smells amazing and I was able to bring it on my recent vacation. It seemed to give me hair more volume than Im used to and I usually have flat hair. I really like it!

So good fort travel

I’m a frequent traveler and I’m not a big fan of hotel products. My hair is super sensitive, so I’m always on the lookout for something that works well and doesn’t leave a mess. I recently tried this product on a trip and I was blown away. It works great and makes my hair feel amazing, but the best part is that I don’t have to worry about liquids leaking as I’m running around. I’ll definitely be buying this again!

Works really well

I don't typically leave reviews, but trying a new product from a new company can be iffy. But I was intrigued since a celebrity hairstylist made it. Let me tell you, it is AMAZING, not just another product, but my hair texture has never felt this good, I will be telling all my friends!

Incredible Lather

This shampoo has the thickest lather. I always feel I need to use a ton of product, but with this, I got a lot of lather with barely any product used. I am in love.

Lightweight and moisturizing!

These products are the answer to my fine hair goals!!!! It’s so hard to find products that moisturize without being too heavy for my hair! I love how simple they are to use and the size of them is perfect! They don’t take up much space in my shower or my luggage when I travel! The best part is they last longer than a big bottle of shampoo/conditioner too so I’m saving money too!

When a product actually delivers

Always on the hunt for that perfect hair product… and guess what? I finally found one! Tried Arove thinking it would be just another bottle on the shelf, but WOW — instant difference! My color-treated hair is softer, shinier, smells heavenly, and feels so healthy.

The real test? I used it on my 7-year-old daughter’s curls and OMG… her curls were bouncy, defined, and beautiful! I’m not someone who usually writes reviews, but when I find something’s this good, you have to let people know. Arove, you’ve got a fan for life!
