L'Oreal Paris Magic Retouch Precision Reviews

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.

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.

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 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 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.

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

My product was packaged in a small wand applicator box which could easily fit into a small hand bag. The product discription should be made clear to the consumer and state the words "wand" or "applicator wand" to give more description of what would be received. The packaging was easy to open and the directions easy to follow. Applying the product was easy but I have long hair and found the the small applicator brush was too small to use for my length of hair but should be perfect for short to medium length hair. I also found that some grey hairs missed out even when I combed through my hair. I also found that after I combed it through my hair, product was left behind on the comb and I had to reapply the product again to my hair. Perhaps I should have waited longer than 5 mins for my hair to dry as my hair was longer and thicker in strand.

I was excited about this little treasure as i have scattered greys on my dark brown hair and havent been able to get to the salon yet and was intriqued at how this would work.

Upon opening the product i saw the that it was a medium rusty brown with mica (the glittery stuff) all through it, which at first made me quite skeptical as i didnt want my greys sparkling in the midday sun. I was expecting a mascara wand but the wand this product has is flat with spikes on both sides, i found this a bit hard to use and it always got stuck im my hair when trying to use it (could be user error though)

I swiped it on the hair after reading the instructions and noticed you have to use the spiked edges otherwise the product clumps and you end up with a huge brown spot on ya scalp if you are near your hair line. However i could smudge it off with my fingers a bit. It took a lot of product to cover my greys but once finished it did cover them and the colour seemed to match despite the initial colour of the product.

I then had to comb my hair a few times to disperse and let it dry. During the day i had a fee people comment and ask if i ha done my hair again, so it must be working.

Not sure if i would buy this, i may reach for a coloured hair spray and give that a go before i come back to this

Great concept but tricky to get right

I have a few stray grey hairs and also I have some leftover lightened pieces of hair throughout my hair that I thought I could easily touch up with this product and blend in to make my hair look more of an even colour all over. Alas, (while the concept of the product is great, practical and there is a definite need for it), I found the product tricky to use and get right. It was hard to apply to stray hairs and when I used it on my random light pieces even though I tried blending in by brushing through I still was not happy with the colour and I found it to be too noticeable and not natural looking. It was hard to get the coverage right and I preferred to apply it once I had put my hair into the style I wanted, but then I found the brush kept accidentally pulling on random hairs or bunching the hair.

My hair is too thick for this type of application. The colour stayed put all day and is not as drying as the spray application.
