hey i am back with review .
everyone get excited ......... its the famous, wonderful and elusive German  brand KRYOLAN!
this is the blush featured in my haul here
this came as a requested review from bidisha of glisteningkaleidoscopiceyes and deeptima of beautyunleashedwithdeeptima.

a lil bit bout the brand :-
For over sixty years now Kryolan has made its presence felt on stage, film, TV, and media with its professional make-up formulations in countries around the world - and is now in India.

Quality - the cornerstone of success

Quality at each step - from development to sourcing to production - is the key to Kryolan's success over decades. Chemists and microbiologists in the Kryolan lab, supported by prominent dermatologists have ensured the quality of Kryolan preparations.

The same commitment to deliver quality matching international standards is the watchword for the Indian operations.

Kryolan's Product line-up
From Foundations and Cream make-up, through setting powders and sprays, eye and lip make-up, Kryolan offers products for every application - including body painting - the latest fad.

so you all can obviously imagine my excitement when i found this blushing beauty at beauty palace , Crawford market , cst , Mumbai. and as the s.a swatched this on my hand , i was sold !

  •  now enough bak bak. here comes the review.
  • cost- 350 inr . since beauty palace is discounted . i got it for 315 inr .... woohoooo!
  • net weight- 2.5 g ie 0.11 oz
  • made in Germany


what they claim :- ( from the KRYOLAN  website ):-
KRYOLAN Blusher is a color-intensive compact rouge on a cream-powder base. 

This fine, micronized product assures a pleasant velvety feeling on the skin. The extraordinary selection of more than 32 different colors satisfies all expectations.

my thoughts about it :-
i lovvvvvvvvvveeeee the shade . i cant stop gushing about it . after i brought it home i stared at its beauty for a while totally mesmerized.
it has a classic silver plastic compact with a transparent lid. it's sturdy enough to be thrown in your bag and carried but not sturdy enough to withstand a fall . it doesn't  have a mirror or an applicator so not useful for touch-ups on the go .
its a beautiful warm pinky peachy coral shade that will suit almost all skin tones . perfect for summers.
however, ladies with fairer skin tones might need to use it with a lighter hand as they are massively pigmented.
its a very finely milled powder that is not so densely packed together. so it can stir up quite some fallout .

after taking the pictures i decided to wash my hands and get to work. And the blush stayed on....it was totally ans "omg-i-cant-f*****g-believe-it" moment for me.
since its my second powder blush i cant really compare it to anything . its staying power is much more better than my faces blush in rose gold .on my super oily in summer skin it stays well upto 7 - 8 hrs when properly set over foundation and compact .
lets come to the crux of it all.

PROS:-
  • beautiful ,true to the pan colour
  • large number of shades available to suit all skin tones
  • decent staying power
  • quite decent quantity
  • finely milled
  • not an horror to blend
  • can suit people with both warm and cool undertones without looking too pink or too orange
  • not an oompa loompa or an i m a clown shade ( why did i even type that .... guess i am mesmerized ....stares some more at the blush while salivating at the mouth )
  • not an exorbitant price .. even a broke student like me could afford
  • it is can be used-by-a-makeup-noob-like-me-easy to use.
CONS:-
  • availability
  • the dust cloud it creates on swirling a brush through it
i wont count the lack of mirror and applicator as a con . we anyway throw out the applicators and we don't apply blush in  a taxi or train ( usually....hehehe)


RATING:-
4/5 
one point reduced for availability and fall out.

WOULD I RECOMMEND IT TO OTHERS :-
yesss, yessss, yessss. grab one anyway u can readers !
