Not for me

I had high hopes for the product, however, it didn’t work for my very curly mane. The colour was great for my hair - I had dark brown. However, I couldn’t comb it through my hair without ending up like Diana Ross! I tried leaving it as is, without combing, and kind of smudging it into my hair, but it would end up looking like I had applied too much gel in that area. I tried using a very very minimal amount, but then that wouldn’t be enough coverage for my greys. I feel this would be great for someone with fine, straight hair. But for my thick curly hair, i couldn’t get it to work in a way that I felt confident that no one would notice I had used hair mascara. However, I did find it great as a eyebrow gel...found this out by accident, as I had ran out of mine. I put a little bit on an old spooly, combed it through my brows and it gave me a bit of colour but also held them in place great! It was an awesome fluke!

Tips: While I wouldn’t recommend going out and buying this for an eyebrow gel, it does work great as one if you’re in a pinch - put a little on an old spooly, brush through brows and you’re done!

Definitely one of the best I have tried!!

I have tried a few Instant grey retouchers/concealers but I think this might have to be the one! I am so impressed with it and how it covers well and actually stayed on longer than expected.

The instructions were easy to follow and the brush is a stiff plastic and not like an actual mascara brush which I actually found better. The product was so easy to apply and I found the next day if I didn't wash my hair in the shower it actually still stayed coloured and didn't need a touch up which for me made life easy!

It didn't take any longer than my usual hair routine before leaving home to do which was great.

Tips: definitely make sure you brush/comb your hair to distribute evenly otherwise it will go hard like hairspray would.

Sister Product of Magic Touch Spray

This is also a great product but a bit different to its sister product that comes in the spray.

This comes in a mascara tube with a mascara type wand that is flat with little bristles that you use to apply to your hair.

This product I would say is more for little touch ups and not for a large area like the spray. You use this on the hairs on your forehead as opposed to your scalp.

It's easy to apply as long as you follow the instructions of having your hair dry and tied back.

It definitely is great for those wee touchups, does the job at covering your greys and there is no product fall out when you touch your hair as long as you do not rub it. Make sure to let this dry and don't add too much product to your hair or it will feel crusty like it would if you used hair spray.

All in all a great product however I would imagine this won't last you as long because it is in a small tube as opposed to a large spray can.

Covers sliver/grey hairs and lasts!

This is a fantastic product that really works! I seem to have one small patch of silvery greys and the odd one scattered that I noticed a few years ago when I was pregnant. I am really impressed with how well the Magic Retouch Precision blends, covers and matches my hair colour! I used dark brown and found it very easy to apply, it wasn’t clumpy and the wand was a good length and I was able to smooth it on evenly. It dried really quickly with a short blast of the hair dryer. I found it lasted days and was so convenient to use. It had a lovely shimmer to it and didn’t have a strong smell. Overall I would recommend this product to anyone wanting to cover greys/regrowth and will definitely be using this again!

Tips: Part hair thinly and smooth through with the wand until it blends evenly. Use hair dryer to dry quickly.

Could be a littlw tricky to match

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

I was hoping for more

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.

Best for small areas coverage!

This product would work well for scattered greys (as it proclaims!) I have dyed dark hair with natural light hair so the spray version works much better for me.

It did leave the covered hair a bit stiff and not so nice to to the touch but you cannot tell by looking at your hair so unless someone is running their hands through your hair you are fine!

The applicator is easy to use (recommend a headband to hold your hair back to get easy access to your temple hair)

Tips: Make sure you follow the instructions, especially about brushing out your hair.

Quick fix

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

Doesn't last

The product itself comes in a mascara style tube and blends into your hair with an applicator similar to a mascara wand but more like a little comb. It blends in easily and covers grey which is exactly what I'm after. It's marvellous for quick touch ups.

BUT it doesn't last like it says it does, definitely not until the next wash and I found myself constantly touching up.

So, would I buy it again? Probably not unless it was on special.

In summary, probably a great thing to have on hand for grey emergencies but be prepared to touch it up.

Tips: Reapply as necessary throughout the day.

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.
