Clairol Root Touch-Up Concealing Powder, Red, 1 Count

Product Information

Made-up of coloured keratin fibres that you simply shake onto areas where you’d like to conceal signs of hair thinning and pat into place. For precise application, you can’t beat this weightless mineral powder and targeted brush applicator that ensures you can get to, and cover, every visible root. The drawback of mined minerals is potential impurities and the version used in cosmetics has to be white (not gray like cheaper grades), free from asbestos, sterilized and have thin plates for a maximum slip. It is also the most commonly used "base" material for layered composite pigments such as pearl-effect pigments.

London-based celebrity hair colourist Josh Wood has a brilliant collection of root touch-up products, including new root smudge powders, airbrush root sprays, root marker crayons and these blending brushes in his hair colour and care line-up.

I am unsure how effective it will be covering a wider colour gap which may occur during the lockdown period! With an easy-to-use applicator brush, apply the powder to your reappearing roots to immediately conceal stubborn colour strands or greys, steadily building and blending the colour to create even coverage. Each mask is enriched with almond oil and nutritive buriti oil: two of many ingredients that make up this softening, smoothing and shine-promoting hair mask.

If at any time you would like to opt out from marketing, you can visit the Privacy Preferences page and select the relevant options. The permanent root cream stays on hair for 45 minutes before washing off to reveal salon-quality root coverage (note that some users complained about the long processing time). The L'Oreal Magic Retouch Instant Grey Root Touch Up also has an impressive range of 10 shades between black and light blonde and although it's actually a spray, the powder aerosol is still a low-commitment fix to conceal grey roots and regrowth. Packed with hair nourishment, housed in chic packaging and always incredibly fragranced, Oribe’s hair products always go the extra beauty mile.

It’s a lightweight, temporary formulation that will last until washed out, but don’t worry it doesn’t run onto clothing or bedding. So if your crowning glory has started sprouting out greys or your roots are starting to giveaway that you’re not really a natural blonde, it’s time to turn to a little at-home help to see you through to your next appointment. While less time spent in your favourite hairdresser’s chair might be great for your economy, it’s not so great for your confidence.
