Does the job well!
I was really pleased with this product. I have medium brown hair and purchased the dark brown. I was worried it might be a little dark but as long as you apply it in thin layers the colour is perfect. Very quick and easy to apply. My roots can show within 3 weeks of my hair being coloured and this is an ideal temporary solution until it's coloured again. I'd previously been using the loreal spray but it left my hair feeling 'gunky' and covered in product. This powder looks and feels very natural in the hair. It's also far, far easier to apply precisely and is therefore ideal for areas such as 'round your ears where the spray left you looking like you'd got in the way of someone spraying a fence with paint. I also use it on my eyebrows between tints (I use a fine brush to apply) and it looks very natural just covering the greys and not leaving your eyebrows looking and feeling caked in a gel like product. I have recommended to a number of friends and will definitely purchase again. At £9.99 the product is great value for money as it will last me some time. Glad I found it!

Will buy again and again
This is a fantastic product. I have medium brown hair and the dark brown absolutely fine. I have used the Charles Worthington product for years, but it doesn't last long or give as good coverage as this. I hate using the sprays - they feel horrible and you end up spraying your face if you're going for the roots around the face rather than the parting. With this you get a really good quantity of product, an excellent double-ended brush and a large mirror in the lid. The powder doesn't 'break up' when you use the brush on it - you just get what you need. It stays on too - I don't find that I have to re-apply to my parting between washes, just the ones that frame my face because that gets taken off with my make-up remover. Extends the time between colouring - I find I have to do mine every 3 weeks, and week 2-3 I need to use a product like this. Love, love, love!

Does cover Grey
I bought this item because I have the odd grey hair, but not enough to warrant colouring all my hair. Previously I had cut these hairs (4-5 of them) close to the root, but decided recently I would try this product instead. Because i'm not using it to disguise roots in my parting and using it instead on individual hairs along their length, it is a bit tricky to apply to the whole hair. However it can be done and takes a few applications with the brush, which is easy to use. I was impressed, the powder really does disguise that shimmery glow of a white hair especially if like me you have dark hair. The dark brown works well with my asian dark hair which is very dark brown, but not black. Would recommend, it's a good product for the price and easy to use, lasts until your next hair wash, haven't noticed it transferring to my pillowcase, but I only use in a few specific areas of my head.

One of the best temporary fixes around
I decided a month ago that I'd grow a beard, with the last time being 14 years ago when I was 27. I hadn't repeated it since because by 27 I had significant grey around my chin, which I felt subconscious of because it made me look much older than I was. Even now being in my early 40s, I feel it's severe, so I opted for several hair dyeing options; I've tried Volt, which I wasn't impressed with, a beard pencil, which I did like, Just for Men beard dye, which I'm holding off trying until nearer the wedding that I need to attend. I had read some good reviews about this particular product, so looking at the colour and the price, I thought I'd give it a try. Now firstly, the colour is, in my opinion, still too light to be classed as dark brown, as it doesn't match my own facial hair, and the black would be too severe and noticeable. The set is impressive, with the brush for distributing the colour, being very soft and pleasant to just brush the beard with, even without the colour. The compact mirror is also really useful. You can easily keep this in your trouser or jacket pocket and it doesn't take up much room at all. What I really like about this is the colour lasts for most of the day, though I would recommend using it in conjunction with another product, such as a beard pencil. What is also great about this product is it is so quick and convenient to use. Literally a minute and you're good to go. Personally I don't use this to conceal grey roots, but instead as a very temporary beard colourant, I'd recommend a beard pencil for the grey roots instead. Until I try the Just for Men permanent beard colour, I'll continue to use this product. I just wish they would do further dark brown shades, but that really is my only gripe about this product. Please see the before and after images.

The Best Ever!....
I cannot really add anything extra to the already many great reviews on here about this product other than to say,like others,too I have tried/used so many different options over the years and on recently reading all those good reviews,I thought surely they all must be pretty much the same,though?! However,I decided to order one anyway as it would still always be used but not really expecting anything much different to those I'd already used. What a revelation!! THIS is by far and away the very best one I have ever used; great immediate coverage..the dark brown shade is great on my medium brown hair...great value in the amount in the compact,which also has a handy mirror and double-ended brush for perfect application. I am so impressed,despite having only just received this one that I am immediately ordering another...I have my "others" now on standby which I shall simply use for indoors until they are used up...but this will now be my "go to" for leaving the house and special occasions,ending up eventually as my only brand. I highly recommend 100% and I am just so pleased I took a chance,just on reading so very many positive reviews so I hope this one too will help others considering purchasing it.

Lives up to the great reviews!
Decided to try this after the great reviews. It’s brilliant! The brushes allow for easier application to hair than sponges. My whites come though at my temples and hairline just above my ears, I hold the hair at 90 degrees to my head and apply the cover up with the small brush. If I get any on my skin, it wipes off the skin with a tissue while still somehow sticking to the hair! For my centre parting I use the bigger brush. It doesn’t come off on fingers when I run them through my hair (apart from first time I used it when I put far too much on). It lasts well, and doesn’t run with sweat or a little rain. It’s not greasy or drying. This product will boost my confidence so much in-between hair-dyeing. Delighted.

Its ok. Doesn't cover roots that well actually. Darkens the grey but if you add more it lifts off what you put on before.

Does the job
Having previously used root sprays which are ridiculously dark and not true, I was surprised and pleased at these colours, they are very natural. A stippling action works best on application and does require time but gives a good finish. I am pleased with result for my needs, it is subtle and looks natural. Wouldn't work so well covering large areas of grey or regrowth tho. I have a blonde baliage and is great for in-between hair appointments to help disguise grey and regrowth. Not used the colour wow version so cannot comment on comparison but this product does what it should at a reasonable price. There is no transfer of product and doesn't appear to spread on hair when brushing. I am pleased

Works great.
It covers the grays well and easy to apply. It doesn't get to the scalp as the spray products and is not messy as some powder products. Good for both small and larger area applications. Glad I found this one.

Perfecte dekking.
Heel handig in gebruik. Grote inhoud, goedkoper dan gelijkaardige haarmascara's .

Für mich besser als Ansatzspray
Seit Jahren benutze ich immer wieder einen bekannten Spray um Ansatz zu kaschieren, damit ich nicht jede 3-4 Wochen färben muß. Ich färbe immer Mittelbraun, aber habe dieses Produkt in dunkelbraun gekauft und das passt perfekt und deckt meine ca.90% graue Haare am Mittelscheitel und den Schläfen recht gut - so wie auch die meisten Ansatzsprays! Aaaaber!! Im Gegensatz zu Ansatzspray, habe ich nicht stets dreckige Finger, dreckige Kopfkissen und mein Scheitel ist zu sehen, da ich mit dem Pinsel das Produkt präzise auftragen kann, was natürlicher aussieht als mit Spray. Ich benutze es gleich nach dem Haare Waschen, aufs nasse Haar und der Puder bleibt wirklich, wo er bleiben soll. Vom Ansatzspray hatte ich auch oft im Laufe des Tages Spuren am Stirn. Mit diesem Cover Up ist es noch nie passiert. Die Haare sind auch nicht so strumpf wie nach dem Spray, würde ich behaupten. Ein bisschen schon, aber nicht so krass. Und ja, man muss täglich bisschen nachbessern. Aber halt trotzdem besser als ein gewisses Ansatzspray. OK, das Produkt ist schon ganz teuer, aber scheint ergiebig zu sein. Da kompakt und gut pigmentiert. Es kalkuliert sich schon- ich brauchte 1 Spray im 1-1,5 Monat. Das kostet soviel wie 2 Sprays, aber wird sicher länger dienen als 3 Monate. Punktabzug für den fake Spiegel drin. So was hab ich noch nie in einem seriösen Kosmetikprodukt gesehen. Eine Spiegelfolie oder was?Aktualisierung am 19.07. - es war tatsächlich eine Schutzfolie drauf🤭 sorry... Und ich habe Probleme beim Öffnen, geht nicht so einfach auf, und ich hab Angst, dass es mir mal aus den Händen flieg und kaputt geht.. Aktualisierung am 19.07. - da hat sich nichts geändert. Ich passe halt sehr beim Öffnen auf. Inzwischen kann ich aber sagen, dass das Produkt mir wohl für ewig langen wird! Wahnsinnig ergiebig! Ist jeden Euro wert. 5 Sterne! Und noch eine Aktualisierung: es hat für mehr alls 10 Monate gereicht. Und die Resten des Puders aus den Ecken habe ich noch weitere 1,5 Monate für meine Augenbrauen benutzt. Natürlich auch schon neues Produkt nachgekauft. Vielleicht hilft jemandem, wie ich den Ansatzpuder auftrage - ich gehe mit dem Pinsel nicht entlang den Haaren wie auf dem Video. Ich halte mir einer Hand die Haare platt und angespannt, dann sehe ich den Ansatz sehr deutlich und dann gehe ich mit dem Pinsel entlang dieses Ansatzstreifen. Sozusagen querdurch. So gelangt mehr aufs Haar und weniger auf Haut. Ich hoffe, das hilft jemandem.

Great product to cover gray hair or thinning hair. Clean and easy to use and stays on for days!
Great product! I have been buying it for some years. It's very easy and clean to put on with a perfect brush that comes with it. You can use it to cover gray hair or to cover patches which are thinning. It stays on very well until you wash your hair, even after doing a hard workout or after days on the beach or other activities. Once you put it on you can relax and continue about your day without worrying about it coming off. It's also in a very neat little box which means it's easy to keep in your makeup bag in your handbag.
