L'Oreal Magic Retouch Instant Root Concealer Spray Review

-
I recently got the opportunity to try out L'Oreal Magic Retouch Instant Root Concealer Spray* in the shade dark brown.  I'm a bit lazy and I have to admit I should have coloured my hair a while ago (I usually use Vidal Sassoon Salonist to colour my hair.  See my review here). I have more than a few grey hairs on my parting, so this was a great opportunity to see if this kind of product works.

The actual aerosol can has a very thin nozzle which makes it very easy to apply the spray exactly where you want it.  I have to admit that I thought that it would be quite messy, but other than getting a few little dots of product on my forehead and hands, which were easy to wipe off, I found this really easy to use.

The results were quite impressive as you can see for the before and after photo s below.  The dark brown shade matched my hair colour really well and blended in great. It didn't leave a stain on my scalp either, which has happened with other products.  It was so quick to do as well, only about 10 seconds.  I can't believe how long it is since I last coloured my hair, but it was perfect for testing out this product.

After Using L'Oreal Magic Retouch Instant Root Concealer Spray
You hold the can 10 cms away from your hair, which should be dry and styled and spray your roots with a light stream.  Less is definitely more with this product.  It gives temporary grey coverage which lasts until you shampoo your hair.  I did find that when I touched my hair, even after a couple of hours that some of the product did rub off on my fingertips but other than that the product is great.

 I also kept it on overnight and the colour did not mark my pillow and looked just as good in the morning as it did when I originally applied it.

L'Oreal Magic Retouch Instant Root Concealer Spray is normally £8.99, but it's currently is on offer at Superdrug for £5.99.

Overall this is a really handy product to have in my stash, especially when I don't have time to colour my hair.

Primark Vitamin Enriched Moisturising Primer Review - Bobbi Brown Dupe

-

I picked up the Primark Vitamin Enriched Moisturising Primer because it looked like it was a dupe for the Bobbi Brown Vitamin Enriched Face Base. The Primark version costs £4.50 for 45ml and the Bobbi Brown Face Base costs £48.50 for 50ml, so there is quite a price difference.   I had always wanted to try out the Bobbi Brown product, so when I received a mini version in a gift with purchase goody bag I was really excited to try it out, but I have to say I was somewhat underwhelmed.  I have quite dry skin and the face base did not have as much slip as I was expecting, so it didn't feel smooth when I applied my foundation. For the price I was expecting to love it way more than I did. It does have a lovely lemon smell which I really enjoy, where as the Primark version doesn't really have a fragrance.  Overall, I actually preferred the Primark version as it is thicker and it made for a better base for my foundation. It also seemed to be more hydrating. I have definitely reached mor
