L'Oreal Magic Retouch Instant Root Concealer

17/8/2020

According to L'Oreal this is the World's Number 1 Root Concealer Spray!
​Here is my review:

What is it?

This Spray is suitable for people who use permanent or semi-permanent hair dye and can be matched with your hair colour or salon colour, for a natural looking finish. This low commitment spray is ideal for those in need of a quick fix between home colourings and salon appointments on sudden appearance of grey hairs.

I use this in a hurry to quickly conceal any pesky greys in between Salon Appointments. I found this product particularly useful during Lockdown, during which all the salons were unable to operate. In my opinion, It is a fast and easy to use product. I use the shade brown which is a perfect match for my hair colour and I make sure not to hold the spray too close during application to avoid any backsplash. However, if I’m spraying the hair near my forehead, I do still use a piece of paper or some type of shield to stop any spray from falling on my face. I get a very long time out of one bottle and only apply it just where needed. I don’t find that the colour fades throughout the day, it blends well and it holds in place. It definitely makes my grey roots unnoticeable, which is exactly what it promises to do!

What makes it great?

  • A Pinpoint micro-diffuser which targets and covers grey hairs
  • A Temporary, lightweight formula which matches seamlessly with your hair colour. 
  • It lasts until washed out with shampoo.
  • Perfectly conceals grey roots by matching your hair colour.

How to use?

  1. Shake well before use.
  2. Keep the product upright.
  3. Apply to dry, styled hair.
  4. Hold can approximately 10cm from hair & spray roots in a light stream.
  5. Don't overspray. A small amount is enough.
  6. Allow to dry before touching your hair.

How many colours are available?

The L’Oreal Magic Retouch Instant Root Concealer Spray comes in 9 shades, ranging from Blonde, Brown to Black. They also make a Magic Retouch Precision Brush, which is an instant grey concealer for temples and scattered greys. For optimal results L’Oreal recommends using both the Magic Retouch and Magic Retouch Precision Brush to cover grey hair.

Where to buy?

This spray is widely available and depending on where you go the price also varies slightly. For Example:
Boots €13.29
McCauley's €13.99
​Meaghers €13.99
McCabes €13.99
Littlewoods €11.99
Supervalu €12.99
But you can find this spray in so many other places also such as Primark, Most Pharmacies, Supermarkets, Superdrug, Look Fantastic etc…

Im not a huge hair person, always more into makeup and just threw my hair in a pony or a bun like i have zero hair talent but this is foolproof. dead handy if i can use it id say anyone can just make sure you hold the can out a bit and dont overapply cause itll make your hair feel hard! Other than that its v easy and for me a necesitiy 90% of the time lol xx
