I’m looking for something to pep up my mouse brown hair and accentuate the blonder/ grey bits.
I’d prefer a non permanent to minimise damage.
Tried Josh Wood Gloss in caramel which I really liked but it washed out really quickly ( like after one wash). I don’t want anything too dark and I’m steering away from red as I’ve done that to death in the past and to want to try something new. I’m blue eyed with pink (cool?) toned freckled skin. Thank you for any recommendations.

I used a Naturtint to cover my greys and it was great, only starting to fade a little now after about 8 weeks. It made my natural hair colour look deeper and richer and totally covered the greys. I am dark, though, so can't speak for lighter shades.

Reporting back to say I have been using this Revlon gloss every wash for a couple of weeks now and it’s brilliant. I leave it on for 3 mins and the colour is gorgeous- it really brings out golden / chestnut tones. It smells lovely and it really makes my hair glossy!
I can’t recommend highly enough!

Does it cover your greys?

Does it cover your greys?

Also wonder this. I've just ordered some but ... can you just use in the shower or does it dye you?!

Yes it covers greys and you can use in the shower. I always try not to get too much on my skin and check with a hand mirror while developing but I actually think it doesn’t stain much unless the skin is really dry. I give my hands a bit of a scrub in the shower with soap once applied as they are very dry and porous.

Thought I'd also update- I bought on the off chance it would work (used a similar product before that really didn't). But it seems great!! I only have a few greys but I keep checking and they do seem to be coloured. I'm guessing it won't work as I get lots more but for now I'm delighted. Thanks!

Im so glad you liked it! I think Revlon are pretty excellent for colour. I am a bit hair obsessed atm and lots of the American You tube home hair channels I look at seem to swear by their box dye and highlighting kits.
