L'Oreal Paris Magic Retouch

This was my first time using this type of grey/regrowth cover. As someone who has dyed dark hair, LOTS of greys and blonde regrowth I am a huge fan of these products for touching up in between dye jobs.. This one is easy to use, compact and very cost effective. It covered well but was a little crunchy to the touch though there was no transfer. I have used the spray cover up from this brand and prefer that, however this would be fantastic for keeping in your handbag for touch-ups as it is small and compact.

I would probably not purchase this again, unless it was on special.

I was hoping for more

I was lucky enough to receive this product to review - my hair grows super fast lately and my regular hair appointments seems too far apart to combat the greys these days!

It took a few turns to get the product going and the consistency was a bit dry which made it tricky to not get on my scalp. I have a forest along my parting so not only are the grey regrowth obvious, getting this product on my scalp is too!!

It definitely helps make the regrowth less in your face, however I do find sprays easier to apply and more blendable.

Could be a littlw tricky to match

I found this product a little tricky. I went for dark blonde to use but a different shade probably wouldve suited better but in saying that i have highlights so i could get away with it. Found it a little on the clumpy side so was a little hard to apply smoothly but when i did get it right it covered those wispy little greys that we all see so easily in the mirror well. I think once you have mastered a smooth application and have the right shade it would go really well so i will persevere and work out the best way to apply

Cover it up

Well this stuff seemed to do what it says it does, covers up Grey's, just wish it lasted longer and those Grey's didn't grow so damn fast lol. It didn't have a strong odor, and did add good coverage, just harder to use around the back area.

Tips: I recommend applying it after your dressed for the day, so it dries and doesn't come off on your clothes, yes I may have had a slight accident .

Quick fix

I was quite interested in trying these hair mascara for a while. The packaging is nice and simple and has the instructions are set clear and easy to follow. I was quite shocked to open it and find such a strong gold colour but was interested to see how it turned out. Glides on easy but can get a tad bit tangled while stroking it through, so be careful. The end results was good, I did like it. Colour was not 100% but was expecting that anyway. It does the job and good for a night out of your showing any greys etc

Hard to get the exact shade

The product seems super simple. A mascara brush for your greys. It comes in handy packaging, discreet and easy to apply. Be cautious when opening it for the first time as it tends to 'spit' when opened. it was easy to apply with the little plastic brush. and went on almost like I had highlights. It blended reasonably well. Unfortunately, the 'dark brown' shade was quite dark so I would definitely recommend that you go one shade down. The product sets pretty quickly so you can't much around but it was almost better when it had as I could comb it out a little bit which helped it blend further. Overall its a pretty good product and I would purchase this product to have on hand for emergencies.

Tips: I would definitely go a shade down and use a fine comb once set to blend it further.

Best for small areas coverage!

This product would work well for scattered greys (as it proclaims!) I have dyed dark hair with natural light hair so the spray version works much better for me.

It did leave the covered hair a bit stiff and not so nice to to the touch but you cannot tell by looking at your hair so unless someone is running their hands through your hair you are fine!

The applicator is easy to use (recommend a headband to hold your hair back to get easy access to your temple hair)

Tips: Make sure you follow the instructions, especially about brushing out your hair.

Hidden greys

I am increasingly getting more and more pesky grey hairs popping up. I dye my hair to cover them, but in between dye jobs there are scattered grey hairs that stick out like sore thumbs against my dark brown hair. Enter a solution to hide them - L'Oreal Paris Magic Retouch Precision Brush.

It comes in a surprisingly plain turquoise mascara like applicator tube. The brush is more like a flat comb, rather than a mascara brush - which is handy for being precise with applying it but also the added bonus of not mistaking it for actual mascara. It is quite easy to apply after a few practice runs to perfect the technique.

The colour was a good match and it was a nice consistency. It didn't leave my hair sticky or clumpy and looked quite natural. It said what it said it would do in terms of lasting until it was shampooed out.

It would take ages to cover all my greys, but we can't expect miracles here. But it covers some of the major stand out ones.

Tips: Takes longer than 5 minutes to dry, so give it a quick blow dry and a comb

Loved it!

Well, I had my doubts. I really doubted if this item would do what it said. I’ve used several products claiming to cover greys, including a hair mascara in the past. At best, they worked but were so messy it made me reluctant to use again. However, with this I was pleasantly surprised! Firstly, the wand is more precise than others I’ve used. It was more like a comb, making it easy to work into the hairline and blur out. Additionally, no fallout or sprays going everywhere! My boyfriend agreed with me that the effect was natural and he couldn’t detect it on my hair and no funny odour. I’ve not washed my hair for 3 days, and it’s definitely worn off a bit, but not completely and I’m sure I could reapply without any buildup or cakeyness. There has been no flaking in those 3 days either or mess on my pillowcase and it hasn’t added oil or grease to my hairline. My downsides would be you’ll need to be careful when you choose your colour - with so many options it suggests they’re all very different so it could be hard to find an exact match, and make sure you wipe the comb before you apply. It coats too much the first time!

Bottom line - I love it! It has given me a lot of confidence to go longer between colourings so that’s a win from me.

Tips: Wipe the comb before you apply the first time!

Definitely one of the best I have tried!!

I have tried a few Instant grey retouchers/concealers but I think this might have to be the one! I am so impressed with it and how it covers well and actually stayed on longer than expected.

The instructions were easy to follow and the brush is a stiff plastic and not like an actual mascara brush which I actually found better. The product was so easy to apply and I found the next day if I didn't wash my hair in the shower it actually still stayed coloured and didn't need a touch up which for me made life easy!

It didn't take any longer than my usual hair routine before leaving home to do which was great.

Tips: definitely make sure you brush/comb your hair to distribute evenly otherwise it will go hard like hairspray would.
