Kryolan

Im a little curious about this foundation after the Bridal Foundation thread now…

Currently I use Cover Effects.

I need something for party wear, something with a tad heavier coverage but not oily.

Is this meant to be used on sensitive skin?

Who uses it here?

Re: Kryolan

ME TOO. I want to try it so bad. I just don't know where to get one from??!! makes me mad.. lol

It's great for full-coverage..if u use it along with a mattifying gel/balm and set it with loose powder u shud be fine (same goes for all the other foundations that make u look oily an hour later).

It's great for party makeup, works well with the strobe cream and high-beam as well.

Re: Kryolan

Psquared check on my fb I got a pic with Kryolan on, from what I knw u have to mix a few shades together to get the shade tht best matches ur skin tone......

Re: Kryolan

you can get it from central london, some store there. type in kryolan into google. i bought mine from there cant rem the store was agessss ago.

Re: Kryolan

Your pic on FB is so cute CE!

Im just wondering if someone who uses it can show me or suggest some shades since you cant buy it from a store in the US. Not that I know of.

Re: Kryolan

I agree with Gina that you need mattifying gel below and powder after if you want to keep looking reasonably matte with these thick foundations.

I like face to face super matte antishine. tried smashbox and all the others and this blows them away. It's £16.50 in the UK.

For foundation, try MAC full coverage before you try Kryolan, it's a creme foundation and providing you can get an exact match, I think it's great. I use it everyday (very light layer) and for special occasions. I use a flat synthetic foundation brush (Japonesque); it just glides onto the skin and can be built up depending how heavy you want it to be.

Re: Kryolan

^i just looked it up, that thing costs $40!

Re: Kryolan

$40 for a good foundation isn't bad -
these things last a long time ... especially if you're like and don't wear makeup on a daily basis

it doesn’t really - that’s some rip off site in the US.

Makeup International e-Commerce

If you scroll down you can see it’s £12.50… I thought it was more!
International shipping is £6.55.

it's not for a foundation, it's for a mattifying gel. i already spend way too much on my face that's why an additional $40 seems like a lot.

so it’ll cost me around $32..still pretty pricey

I like MAC full coverage foundation...would have loved to try Kryolan too if I would have been able to try it first...I'm a little skeptical of buying foundation without actually trying it on me...only if they had a store in Chicago!!

Re: Kryolan

Does anyone know where they have the largest variety of Kryolan cometics in Lahore?

I know in Karachi there's a hugeeee shop on Tariq Road....

Thanks!

i use kryolan/tv stick in ivory sometimes for special occassions like weddings..it gives u a full/heavy coverage..make sure to use alot of powder on top to set it ..this way it will last longer..over all its not bad n lasts u a long time..but i persinally like light/medium coverage llike mac studio fix n maybelline matte mousse
btw $40 for kryolan is a rip off..here in pakistan u would get them alott cheaper

Re: Kryolan

Kryolan is BRILLIANT!!

I have triedddd:
Mac Studio Fix
Mac Studio Fix Fluid
Bobbi Brown oil-free
Bobbi Brown (the glow one cant remember)
Make Up Forever HD
Makeup Forever (2 others from them)
Revlon
LOreal
Benefit

You name it!! and by far Kryolan is better in staying power, shade match and looking natural... TV stick is great

FYI my shade is FS38 in TV stick, I'm a mac NC35/NC40

We get it in Dubai but it's soooo much cheaper in Pakistan!

anyone know how to apply this TV-Stick?
i got mine in Pakistan Lahore for 400 Rupees :D

What store in Lahore did you buy it? I just went to Pot Pouri a few days ago and believe I bought it for around 700?

oh i dont remember the name but i bought it in a normal store in anarkali bazar :)
