Kryolan Lipstick LC 161 Review
By Priya Garg
Hello everyone,
How are you all? I am very excited since this is my first post on IMBB, so kindly bear with me. Makeup was such an under rated word before IMBB. It has completely transformed the meaning of makeup by making our girls glamorous and beautiful. It has not only taught us how to look beautiful, but also how to feel beautiful. Now, I can totally preach the makeup theory to anyone, all thanks to Rati di and the team. I was eagerly waiting for IMBB vacancies and here I am on the platform, feeling like a celebrity already 😀 So, without much ado, let’s start with the review.
Today, I am going to review Kryolan professional lipstick LC 161. Kryolan is a brand that has never failed to impress me with its quality. On my recent trip to the Kryolan store, I picked up a few lipsticks and here goes my review for one of those.
Product Description:
Lipstick with a long-proven formulation, including Vitamin E to stimulate the skin’s repair mechanism. Lipstick Classic produces a matte impression and is known for its good durability. ECARF certified.
Price:
250 INR for 4 gm.
Ingredients:
Ricinus Communis (Castor) Seed Oil, Octyldodecanol, Candelilla Cera (Euphorbia Cerifera (Candelilla) Wax), Glyceryl Ricinoleate, Oleyl Alcohol, Cera Carnauba (Copernicia Cerifera (Carnauba) Wax), Cera Microcristallina (Microcrystalline Wax), Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride, Paraffinum Liquidum (Mineral Oil), Cetyl Alcohol, Cera Alba (Beeswax), Tocopherol, Parfum (Fragrance) and may contain: [+/- Titanium Dioxide CI 77891, Iron Oxides CI 77491, CI 77492, CI 77499, Yellow 5 Lake CI 19140, Red 36 CI 12085, Blue 1 Lake CI 42090, Carmine CI 75470, Red 22 Lake CI 45380, Red 7 Lake CI 15850, Red 40 Lake CI 16035, Yellow 6 Lake CI 15985, Red 28 Lake CI 45410, Manganese Violet CI 77742, Bismuth Oxychloride CI 77163, Mica, Silica, Tin Oxide, Alumina, Synthetic Fluorphlogopite] (EU seulement/only: CI 77007, CI 77120, CI 77266, CI 77510, CI 77000, CI 58000, CI 77288, CI 74160, CI 77289, CI 73015) May contain carmine as a color additive.
My Experience with Kryolan Lipstick LC 161:
It comes in a silver case with its name Kryolan on it. The body is simple, nothing fancy. The cap shuts tightly and does not come off easily. Easy to carry in a bag. The shade of the lipstick is between pink and brown. It leans more towards pink, so I would say it’s a brownish pink kind of a shade.
It gets opaque in 2-3 swipes. Since I have pigmented lips, I apply 2 coats of it for natural pink lips. The texture is buttery smooth and glides on my lips without any tugging and pulling. You can skip a lip balm before applying it. Since it is creamy, it stays on my lips for 3-4 hours and fades unevenly. After that, it does not leave any stain, it wears off completely. It does transfer.
Summing up the pros and cons:
Pros of Kryolan Lipstick LC 161:
- Buttery soft and creamy.
- Boon for dry lips since it is moisturizing enough.
- Does not settle in fine lines.
- Natural and every day kind of shade that would suit Indian skin tones perfectly.
- Inexpensive.
- No need to apply a lip balm beneath this lipstick.
- Does not stain the lips.
- Comes with an expiry date.
Cons of Kryolan Lipstick LC 161:
- Fades unevenly.
- Might not be liked by matte lovers.
- Quite transferable.
- Availability.

Welcome to IMBB Priya…..you have reviewed the lipstick well. Kryolan stuff hardly disappoints.
Thank you jomol di.. I second you that Kryolan hardly disappoints.
Welcome to IMBB priya
I love their lipsticks *clap*
Thank you Neha di..I love them too 🙂
The shade is so beautiful and the price is even better! Kryolan has some great stuff. I bought a couple of their lipsticks and haven’t used them much cause I find the smell really weird! It irritates my nose cause it doesn’t even fade off easily 🙁 Pretty LOTD!
Hi Abhinaya..I understand that the smell might bother some people but you can always top it up with a scented lip balm or gloss lightly so the lipstick’s smell wont be very overpowering. It works for me all the time with some of my “not-so-good-smelling” lipsticks.
And thank you. 🙂
