Colour Refresh Beige Blonde 8.20

Maria Nila has a few cool-blonde options at different strengths. Beige Blonde is the most natural and neutral — a soft, sandy cool beige that refreshes blonde and gently softens warmth. Cool Cream is a creamier cool blonde. Pearl Silver is the strongest, an icy-silver toner that most aggressively cancels yellow and brass. Choose Beige Blonde for a natural, everyday cool refresh; Cool Cream for a soft creamy cool; Pearl Silver for serious brass-cancelling or an icy finish. All condition the hair as they tone.

It shows on blonde hair at levels 7–10 — the lighter your blonde, the more you'll see the soft beige-cool tone. On darker hair the effect is subtle or nil. Because it's a gentle, neutral shade it's fairly forgiving, but over-toning is still possible on very pale or porous blonde if left too long, so start with a short 3–5 minute contact time, rinse, and check before reapplying. A strand test first shows how it reads on your hair.

No to both. It only deposits soft beige tone — it can't lighten, as it has no bleach. And the semi-permanent pigments don't cover grey (results on grey vary and aren't recommended). Beige Blonde refreshes and neutralises existing blonde; it works best on already-blonde or pre-lightened hair at levels 7–10. On darker hair it won't show. It's a toning refresher, not a colour change or grey coverage.

It's not damaging — it's a conditioning treatment with Argan Oil, Provitamin B5, and nourishing ingredients that leaves hair soft and glossy. But always tell your hairdresser if you've used Colour Refresh before any bleaching or lightening. Even a subtle blonde toner leaves some pigment, which can affect a bleach result, so your colourist needs to know to plan the service correctly.
