Great product

I really liked this one from L’Oreal. When I first put it on, it was like putting gel in my hair - it looked wet and was sticky. Luckily I read the instructions re combing and waiting. After doing this, my hair looked fine and you couldn’t tell I was wearing it.

Pro’s: colour match was spot on. You couldn’t see the product at all! Grey coverage was 100% so I was extremely happy with that. It’s reasonably easy to apply, and the instructions are very clear.

Con’s: really only one downside is that you have to comb the product through. So if you’ve put your hair up and spot any lingering ‘sparkles’, you wouldn’t be able to just do a touch up with your hair up. You would need to take it down, use the product and start again.

Overall, I really liked this and will be using it during the between salon visits weeks.

Tips: Follow the instructions :)

I would also suggest a fine tooth comb. I have a wide one and I think the fine comb would do a much better job at moving the product through.

Works well.

I have used one my Mum brought a few times and it seems to do a good job. Would definitely use this if I needed it regularly. Easy to wash out.

Greys be gone!

This product is packaged in a gorgeous box, with clear easy to understand instructions. The applicator is flat with comb like edges so it can get right into the roots. It is a nice consistency and covers even the wiry unruly greys! I found the applicator so easy to use, I have used sprays in the past and you tend to get it on your face and everywhere else too. This method is much easier and far tidier to apply. It drys nicely and quickly not leaving your hair sticky or powdery like other products. It lasts well and the colour match was great. The wand is just like a mascara so easy to pop in your handbag if you want to reapply during the day, but I found it lasted really well. I highly recommend the L’Oréal magic retouch precision and would definately use in between having my regrowth coloured. I have a lot of greys in my part line and this is the perfect product for disguising them between salon appointments,

Overall great product

Tips: using the very end of the wand gets right in close to those new growth hairs as it’s pointy and then the comb edge for distributing it great.

Magic Retouch Precision

I have been going grey since i was 14/15 so for me ive had regrowth for 20+ years! having grey hair, the dye just doesn't stay like it used to so i love to try product that will hide my regrowth so i can wait as long as possible in between dye jobs. i was pretty thrilled to get picked for this review. the packet looks pretty small, but the bottle is the same as a mascara. the wand however is slightly different, ive used a couple of other brands like this, and i have to say the L'Oreal wand is my favourite! it has flat edges like tiny combs on each side, not like a mascara wand with tiny spikes all over, that has to be the best feature, putting it threw your hair is more like combing it on and doesn't get caught, which is awesome. now it does feel very wet when you put it on, but once dry you brush it, and i couldn't feel much difference between touched up and not in feel. i think this is perfect for little touch ups

Tips: If you have a lot of regrowth i would recommend getting the matching spray to do the bulk and then this for edges and bits that need a bit extra, otherwise it would be quite time consuming

Adding to my box of tricks!

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!

Hair mascara for adult women

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.

Tips: Wait until it’s dry before combing as otherwise you’ll just comb the colour straight back out.

Fabulous quick and easy!!

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 :)

Tips: Don't put too much on the wand to start off with as it combs through easily.

Great fix for quick touch ups!

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.

Tips: I like to apply liberally over my grey hair and I use a small hair dye brush to "blend" it in. I also like to keep it in my handbag for quick touch ups if I happen to catch sight of one I missed while out and about.

Great!

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.

Quick, easy, precise!

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.
