Awesome product!! LOVE IT!

6 years ago
Where has this been my entire life! I will never use anything else after having found this pen. The product is odorless, dries quickly and absolutely covers all my grays 100%. The brush concept ensures that the product does not go on clumpy on my hair. I prefer this over the spray as I can control what parts of my hair I can cover. I love this product so much that I hope L'Oreal will make this forever!!

Works but is too dark.

6 years ago
The brown is too dark. Please make a lighter color for those of us who have dark & grey roots with lighter-colored hair. Since this is not the right color for me, I won't buy it again - but if it's the right color for you, then you will probably love it. Good size for travel too.

I love it

For those moments when you need an immediate gray cover-up right at the roots—perhaps for a single event—this is the simplest solution. What I love most is the application process; it's so smooth and completely mess-free.

What a Wonderful Product!

a year ago
I love this product because my brown highlighted hair is greying in some spots, and I don't want to 100% cover up all the grey, but just some of it. (My salon colorist just wants to color all my grey hairs brown.). This brush lets me play around and experiment with where I want the darks/browns vs the grey or the highlights. It partially lasts through several washes which was a plus for me. I took off one star because the medium brown color is very dark, and you don't offer any lighter colors. I wish you had a light brown and a dark blonde shade too. I don't think any other company makes a product like this, a temporary color that doesn't need to be mixed and can be delicately applied.
Would you purchase this again:Yes

Works better than I expected

3 years ago
I was skeptical about this because didn't know if it would stand out different to my hair color. I was amazed at how it blended in and covered the grey roots. This will definetly help stretch out my hair appointments longer. I am so excited!

SWorks great for darker colored hair

4 years ago
I purchased the lightest available color of Medium Brown. But it is still too dark as my hair is a light brown. It worked great but didn't match enough. I tried to use more sparingly but still too dark. Please make in lighter shades. But if you have darker hair I would highly recommend.
Would you purchase this again:No

While every ingredient we use in our products is evaluated for safety, we do not specifically test our products on women who are pregnant or nursing.

      Hi cocodelo! Thank you for your interest in Magic Root Precision Pen. This is not recommended for use on facial hair. For your brows we recommend using BROW STYLIST Boost & Set Brow Mascara. Available where most L'Oreal products are sold.

      1. Rotate bottom of concealer counter-clockwise 3-5 times to dispense a small amount of color onto brush. Tip- First use may require up to 20 full rotations for color to dispense.
      2. Lightly dab brush onto dry hair using gentle, swift strokes to build and blend in color. Tip: To avoid transfer to the scalp, gently pull hair away from the head as you brush.
      3. Let dry for 1 minute. Re-cap the brush
