Dealing with stray grey hairs or an uneven hairline between salon appointments? This hair mascara offers a quick, precise, and temporary fix. Its mascara-style wand allows for targeted application to cover grey roots, baby hairs, and sideburns with a natural black color that dries quickly.

The waterproof and sweat-proof formula is designed to withstand Mauritius' humidity, ensuring your touch-up stays put without smudging or running. It's the perfect emergency tool for a flawless hairline, washing out easily with your regular shampoo.

1. Prep: Start with dry, styled hair.
2. Apply [THIS PRODUCT]: Gently brush the wand over grey roots or baby hairs. Use light strokes and build up color as needed.
3. Dry: Let the product air dry for 1-2 minutes before touching to prevent smudging. It does not need to be rinsed out.

Note: This is a temporary color solution. It should be washed out with shampoo before bed to avoid staining pillowcases.

• When to Use: As the final step in your hair styling routine, on dry hair.
• Amount: A little goes a long way. Use light strokes to coat the hair strands. For larger areas, apply more product; for fine baby hairs, wipe excess product off the wand first.
• Method:
  1. Shake the tube gently 1-2 times with the cap on.
  2. Unscrew the wand and apply directly to grey roots, sideburns, or any area needing coverage, brushing from the root outwards.
  3. For precise application on small areas, use the tip of the roll-comb brush.
  4. Allow it to dry completely for about 1-2 minutes.
• Frequency: Can be used daily or as needed for touch-ups.

If-This / Then-That:

• If it looks stiff or clumpy: You may have applied too much. Once dry, gently brush through with a clean spoolie or comb to soften the look.
• If you need to style with hairspray: Apply the hair mascara first, let it dry, then use hairspray to set your style.
• If you have dark brown hair: This shade is "Natural Black" and may appear too dark. A patch test on a small section is recommended.

Safety: For external use on scalp hair only. Do not use on eyelashes or eyebrows. Avoid contact with eyes. Wash out before sleeping to prevent transfer to bedding. Discontinue use if scalp irritation occurs.

• Why this, not regular eye mascara? Eye mascaras are formulated for lashes and can flake, smudge, or look unnatural on scalp hair. This formula is designed to dry to a natural, powder-like finish that blends with hair texture and resists smudging.
• Why this, not a root spray or powder for small touch-ups? Sprays can be messy and difficult to control, often staining the scalp and skin. Powders can look less natural and may not be waterproof. The mascara wand offers precise application, targeting only the hairs you want to cover without mess.

• Works Well With: Most hair styling products like gels, mousses, and serums (apply before this mascara). Can be used with hairspray (apply after this mascara is dry).
• Use Carefully With: Hair oils. Applying this over very oily hair may affect its longevity and drying time. Ensure hair is not greasy before application.
• Avoid On: Wet or damp hair, as the product will not adhere properly and may smudge. Do not use on eyelashes or eyebrows.

• Hair Types: Suitable for all hair types, including straight, wavy, and curly hair.
• Hair Colors: Specifically designed for #01 Natural Black. It is best suited for black to very dark brown hair. It will not show up on lighter hair colors and may look too dark on medium brown hair.
• Scalp Types: Formulated for use on hair, but incidental contact with the scalp is expected. Those with very sensitive or irritated scalps should perform a patch test first.

• Temporary Grey Hair Coverage: Instantly conceals stray grey hairs along the parting and hairline.
• Root Touch-Up: Helps blend in root regrowth between professional coloring appointments.
• Hairline Definition: Fills in sparse areas and baby hairs to create a fuller, more defined hairline.
• Sideburn Coloring: Provides quick and easy coverage for grey hairs on sideburns.

This product is exceptionally well-suited for the Mauritian climate. Its "Waterproof" designation means it is formulated to resist running or smudging from sweat, high humidity, or even a light rain shower. It provides a reliable, quick fix for grey roots that will last throughout a hot day, giving you confidence that your hair color remains flawless and natural-looking without any mess.

This hair mascara is an excellent choice if your primary goal is precise, temporary coverage of small areas like grey roots, sideburns, or baby hairs.

• If you need more permanent grey coverage: Consider a traditional hair dye. Hair mascara is a temporary, wash-out solution designed for use between coloring sessions.
• If you need to style and hold your hairline: A strong-hold hairspray or gel would be more effective for styling. This product provides color and minimal hold.
• If you want to address the root cause of hair thinning: Look for scalp treatments with ingredients designed to promote scalp health and hair growth, such as those in our haircare section. This product is a cosmetic cover-up.

Mindful Use: If you already have a root touch-up product you enjoy that addresses your concern, there’s no need to add another right now—finish what you have first.

• Format: 8g mascara tube with a specialized roll-comb brush applicator for precise and easy use.
• Practicality: The compact, portable size makes it perfect for travel or keeping in your handbag for on-the-go touch-ups.
• Storage: Store upright in a cool, dry place. Ensure the cap is screwed on tightly to prevent the product from drying out.
• Sustainability: The packaging is primarily plastic. Please check with local Mauritian recycling guidelines for proper disposal.
