Magic Retouch Precision Instant Concealer Brush - Dark Blonde

This was too dark to use on my light ash blonde hair so I gave it to my mum who has fallen in love with it. She’s a nurse so often doesn’t have time to keep up with her colour and this is the perfect remedy for covering those cheeky greys! Be sure not to put too much product in though. It comes recommended. I’d be interested to try a lighter version.

I use the magic retouch spray and love that, so I thought I'd give this a go because I only have the odd grey hair and this offers precision cover, whereas the spray is good for covering larger sections of your roots between colouring. I like the wand applicator for this because it goes let you get very specific sections - I just pull up the individual grey hairs and then apply the concealer. The colour is a perfect match for my hair, so you can't tell at all once the concealer has dried. The only downside for me is that it does take a while to dry and adds a bit too much texture for my liking. It's OK to use on the odd hair but I wouldn't want to use it on a section of hair as I think it would leave it feeling too stiff. But that's not really what it's intended for at the end of the day and the spray would be better there. It's very good for precision retouching.

This is a really innovative product. I love that you can just touch up any grey hairs as and when the need arises. The product matched my own hair colour well. I did find that I had to use quite a lot to get full coverage. Thankfully I don’t have many grey hairs yet but I can this being a really useful product for those who do.
