L'Oreal Paris Magic Retouch Precision Reviews

I am sadly no longer a spring chicken and literally from the day I turned 25, I have been finding sneaky greys in my hair. My hairdresser calls them sparkles and tries to convince me to see her every 10 weeks- my wallet likes to stretch it out to more like 12 weeks! So I was very excited to be selected for the L’Oréal Paris Magic Retouch Precision trial. I chose dark brown as I felt it would match my roots best.

The product comes as a mascara wand and is quite slim like. The turquoise colour is quite eye catching - I am pleased it is not black as I would hate to mix it up with my eye mascara!

The formula is easily applied, I just brushed it on wherever I noticed patches of glitter. You need to leave it for approx 5 mins so that it dries and oh my goodness- it covers so well! Definitely hides the grey and blends beautifully with my natural hair.

I decided to trial the product over 3 days so I could see it in natural and artificial lighting and also to see if it would leave me looking like I was melting after a trip to the gym. I couldn’t believe how well it stood up to a sweaty treadmill session !

You can easily remove it but shampooing out and I like the fact you are able to really control exactly where to apply it, thanks to the specially designed wand.

10/10 would purchase and will now be keeping it in my bathroom!

More and more grey strands have slowly been appearing in my virgin hair over the past couple of years. I was pulling them out but reached the point of my hair obviously thinning and despair. I’m not ready to commit to the costs and upkeep of dying it.

The L’Oreal Paris Magic Retouch Precision Reminded me of hair mascara which was briefly cool (and came free with a Dolly Magazine circa 1998!) but really just clumped your hair together. But the L’Oreal Paris Magic Retouch Precision has a much improved double comb-style wand and consistency (thank goodness!).

It’s a wee bit of admin - your hair needs to be dry before applying as required in front of the mirror and combing through, but definitely does the job, doesn’t smell terrible and has a cute blue mascara-style container which just pops in your make up bag for easy transport.

It wasn’t as precise as I’d envisioned for picking out random strands but you can’t tell if you colour more than are grey - it nicely blended into my hair colour.

Thanks so much Beauty review!! I love this product its going to be i always have now as its pretty much the perfect colour and it so so easy to use!! Its like a mascara size wand with two different thicknesses and its more of a silicon wand then a actual brush so i think it makes it alot easier to apply and more evenly as well. It drys very quickly and looks natural. And shampoos out. How easy is that?! I love it I'm going to keep it in my handbag for little touch ups as needed in between hair colours i might actually not need to get my hair coloured as much with this yay winning!!! Ive tried another brand of this sort of touch up thing and im sorry but this one is the bees knees! Hands down recommend this one i may even get a lighter colour for the summer months :)

Thanks BR!! This product comes in a cute, aqua green mascara like packaging. The wand seems to be made out of silicon and to be honest, I preferred it over other products traditional mascara like wands; because it doesn't catch/ tangle my hair. The product was a perfect match for my hair colour and applied awesomely with the wand. It does exactly what it's supposed to do and is definitely a product I will keep using and intend to purchase once this one is all gone.

The product packaging was nice and discreet and the same size as a mascara so you could pop it in ur hand bag if you wanted to use it on the go. It has a rubber type mascara wand applicator which is good for covering smells areas of greys etc. I found the coverage from the product itself good, it was quick to use but it left this weird brown residue on my scalp which I didn't like. I was so paranoid going out with this in my hair cos of what it would leave on my scalp! I probably wouldn't use it again because of this.

If anything makes me shudder my way back to the late 90s, it's the words 'hair mascara'. The crispy, poorly coloured streaks we'd inflict on our hair!

Thankfully Magic Retouch Precision is nothing like it's retro counterpart. It applies very slightly, and as the silicone brush glides down your strands it magically covers the grey slithers.

This is perfect for those of us who are just starting to see grey strands and want to cover them. I have balayage hair, so for me, not wanting to colour my roots, this offers a great way easily and quickly mask greys.

Will repurchase and recommend.

I've tried a regrowth spray in the past but found it a little messy - and my grey percentage isn't high enough to warrant a full spray down.

I have blonde hair. The blonde shade is quite golden, but I guess if you had silver hair you wouldn't be too concerned by grey hair?

It is essentially a mascara tube and wand, but the formula doesn't dry crispy. Your hair still feels like your hair, and the colour stays put. I wash my hair every 3 days or so and only had to apply this once to last the whole period.

Perfectly sized to slip in your handbag for trips away or after swimming.

The product itself comes in a mascara style tube and blends into your hair with an applicator similar to a mascara wand but more like a little comb. It blends in easily and covers grey which is exactly what I'm after. It's marvellous for quick touch ups.

BUT it doesn't last like it says it does, definitely not until the next wash and I found myself constantly touching up.

So, would I buy it again? Probably not unless it was on special.

In summary, probably a great thing to have on hand for grey emergencies but be prepared to touch it up.

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

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)
