L'Oreal Paris Magic Root Cover Up Gray Concealer Spray (Dark Brown,2oz)

NOT recommended.

Very nice product

Good for last min touch up, frequent use without hair wash makes it sticky on scalp.

Quite good for temporary touch up

When this product first came out, I was so thrilled. I had been using a pressed compact powder from the US called DERMABLEND which was the only hairline makeup coverup around many years ago. Before that, I used eyeshadows as I had to get creative since there was no one except Toppik making hair coverups and one company from the 80s. When this came out, I tolerated the slight overspray that occurs which can be messy but easily cleaned. The coloring is not permanent so does not stain you. I use the darkest brown shade and my hair color fluctuates between dark brown to dark reds. I never tried the red tones so far. PROS: covers up quickly and fast. Colors are basic and you can make it work for the most part. Easy to travel with. It really works and has given me a more natural hairline as a woman dealing with a see-through scalp. CONS: -smells of chemicals when first sprayed on, not a repulsive scent as I am very sensitive, however, you have to spray a fragrance on your hair like an eau de toilette bath and body, if you are in close proximity of others and don't want attention to your hair for the scent. It dissipates soon after. i am not sure if someone comes close enough if they still smell it in your hair after hours of wear. -The price is getting a little high now at $13.99 plus taxes for 1/3 of what other leading brands are offering. It should be more budget-friendly considering you need 1 bottle per week if you use it every day. The quantity is minimal, although the size is discreet for the purse or travel. The price needs to reflect the popularity of the product, and the frequency of usage for the minimal qty they offer. Perhaps two sizes would be great. The travel size priced at $5.99, (current size offered), and a large hairspray bottle size at $15.99 would be fair as a 1-3 month usage. You know everyone would buy the large size for at home use, plus the travel size (what you currently offer). -I dislike the way if feels on the scalp after a whole day. It mixes with oils on your scalp almost like a wax. If you run your fingers through the area you sprayed, it gets under the nails and is harder to clean. -I dislike the matt look which is too matt and draws attention to the area. Hair has some sheen always. The idea is not to draw attention to the area. -It feels waxy to the touch. I wish it would dry and could be brushed out like other hair coloring sprays and making it even more natural. This behaves like a hairspray once on, you don't want to mess around with it. Maybe over time, they will improve the formula so that it is more dry product than filler or carrier. Suggestions: create a larger spray for home use and use the current size for travel. Modify pricing of the travel size to reflect selling a larger product for home use. Improve formula to be dryer less matt, and keep it always fragrance-free.

Love it .. been buying it for quite some time now... Super handy
