L'Oreal Paris Magic Retouch Review

This comes in a aqua coloured aerosol with a label showing the colour and a sticker on top showing the colour of the product which makes it really easy to see the colour you require. The product is easy to apply and the instructions on the container are clear -Shake well, 10 cm from regrowth and not too much. I have been using this for 3 months and have just come to the end and am really pleased with the result. I initially purchased when I saw it on sale at the warehouse for $14.95 as I was looking for a product to save having to colour my hair too often ( I was colouring the regrowth every 3 weeks and felt this was not only not good for my hair condition but also worry about allergic reactions as I have a sensitive skin) I have only applied on the crown of my hair and where my hair falls in natural parts and this is sufficient to delay re colouring for approx 2 weeks. The colour which I purchased was dark brown and this blends really well with very little effort on my part. I now only retouch my hair colour every 5 to 6 weeks and my hair is in much better condition than it was. The colour is tempory and washes out with shampoo but so easy to reapply and takes just seconds to get it done so no effort and the result is really natural.

I tried this out of curiousity at a time when I didn't have time to dye my roots, and so I was looking for a quick fix to hide some greys! This did the trick just fine. It gave me an extra few weeks of grace. I have now purchased my second bottle and have already quietly thanked loreal for making this product! It's definately an Inbetween dye thing though...not an alternative to dying your hair. Also, my hair is close to black, but the shop only had brown in stock. It made no difference really since our hair has highlights anyway.

I found the colour a good match, dark brown, easy to use, lasts till next wash so that was great, blended really well with natural colour, what I didn't like is it made my hair go frizzy on top where I sprayed so had to use more oil product to stop if frizz.
