Kryolan TV Paint Stick

Kryolan TV Paint Stick

The Kryolan TV Paint Stick is a legendary professional foundation that has set the standard for high-coverage makeup for decades. Its name is derived from its original purpose: to provide a flawless, non-reflective base for television, film, and studio photography. This highly pigmented stick foundation offers exceptional coverage that can effortlessly conceal skin imperfections, discoloration, and blemishes, delivering a perfectly uniform and smooth complexion.

The unique stick format makes application incredibly fast and convenient. You can apply it directly to the face for a quick, full-coverage look or use a brush or sponge for more precise control. Despite its robust coverage, the formula is designed to feel lightweight and comfortable on the skin. Its semi-matte finish is ideal for controlling shine, making it an excellent choice for oily and combination skin types.

Beyond the professional media world, the Kryolan TV Paint Stick is a favorite among everyday users and makeup enthusiasts who desire a powerful, long-lasting foundation. Its buildable nature allows you to achieve anything from a medium-coverage look to a complete, flawless canvas. The wide range of shades ensures a perfect match for every skin tone, making it a versatile and indispensable tool in any makeup kit.

Ingredients Details

The Kryolan TV Paint Stick is formulated with a rich combination of waxes, emollients, and highly concentrated pigments. The base typically includes ingredients like Hydrogenated Polyisobutene, Candelilla Cera (Wax), and Cera Alba (Beeswax), which give the product its solid stick form and smooth application. The full coverage is delivered by a high concentration of Titanium Dioxide and various Iron Oxides, which provide superior color payoff. The formulation is carefully balanced to ensure a durable, matte finish that minimizes transfer. Kryolan’s products are renowned for their quality and are dermatologically tested to ensure they are safe for professional and everyday use.

Usage Details

1. Skin Preparation: Start with a clean and well-moisturized face. For the best, longest-lasting result, apply a primer suitable for your skin type to create a smooth canvas for the foundation.
2. Application:

• You can apply the stick directly to your face by drawing strokes on your forehead, cheeks, chin, and nose.
• Alternatively, use a spatula to transfer some product to a mixing palette and apply with a foundation brush or a damp makeup sponge for a more controlled blend.
• A little goes a long way with this product due to its high pigmentation. Start with a thin layer and build up coverage as needed.

3. Blending & Setting:

• Blend the foundation into your skin using a damp beauty sponge or a dense brush, tapping or buffing the product until it looks seamless.
• To lock the foundation in place and ensure a transfer-proof finish, it is crucial to set it with a generous application of a setting powder. This step will also reinforce the matte finish and prevent shine throughout the day.
