Kryolan Lip Pencil

Kryolan Lip Pencil

Hi All!!

I cannot tell you how happy I was when I accidentally bumped into a Kryolan showroom! While strolling down a mall at Chennai, I saw Kryolan showroom and was delighted. I went in to check out. I drooled over all the products and wanted to get something to try out first. So, I got a lip pencil. Read on to know how it fared.

My Take on Kryolan Lip Pencil:

I did not want to invest much on any other product without knowing how it would fare. So, I went for a safe bet – a lip pencil! I swatched the colors and settled for this one. I was not impressed at all on swatching as I felt it was not creamy enough! When I inquired about the price, I felt I was wasting money (“cheap products don’t fare well concept” :toothygrin: ).

I came home and immediately applied it on my extremely dry lips. I was amazed at how smooth the application went on, not a bit of a tugging! I was extremely pleased! The next morning, I exfoliated my lips and filled my lips with this pencil and wondered if a gloss was necessary or not. I wanted to check its moisturizing capacity and came to the office without a gloss. I asked my friend to guess what I was wearing on my lips – a lipstick, lip cream or a lip pencil and she told it was a lip cream! This pencil did not moisturize my lips nor did it make my lips dry! I was actually able to smudge the color on my upper and lower lips, it was that creamy. It stayed on my lips till lunch, that is 3-4 hours, which I feel is pretty decent for a pencil!

This is how the tip looks before swatching. After swatching a few strokes, the tip slanted. I mean to say that the pencil is that creamy.

Pros of Kryolan Lip Pencil:

  • Creamy formula which gives a lip cream kind of finish.
  • Does not tug or dry the lips.
  • Very cheap for the quantity (the pencil is 17.5 cm in length, more than half feet).
  • It is sharpenable, so it is hygienic.
  • Has color band at the end for easy identification (though the color of the band and the original shade has a lot of difference).

Cons of Kryolan Lip Pencil:

  • There were no ingredients list mentioned anywhere.
  • Availability is a big problem (this showroom in Chennai is their first store in India apart from their manufacturing units).
  • No names for the colors, they have some weird numbers.
I want to mention one more thing. The store had a few pink, brown and red-colored pencils on the right side and some blue, black, green and purple pencils on the left side. When I asked the SA which ones were lip and eye pencils, he told these can be used as a lip pencil as well as an eye pencil!

IMBB Rating:

4/5.
