KRYOLAN is the global name for professional make-up and KRYOLAN's reliable partners are on all 5 continents.
But just what is the difference between professional make-up and everyday beauty make-up with which we are all so familiar?
A considerable number of special demands, such as the following, are placed on professional make-up and must be satisfied to an optimal degree:
- Faithful rendition of colours for the stage or camera.
- Good permanence on the actor's skin
Especially good compatibility on the skin.
- Colour continuity over years.
- Good colour intensity.
- Capability of international application
- High degrees of product safety and reliability.
Theatrical make-up must enable the actor to appear believable and realistic under stage lights, in the particular role which he or she is playing. In its close collaboration with make-up designers, KRYOLAN produces a
comprehensive line of colours which satisfies these expectations.
These colours often appear unnatural to the lay person under offstage conditions,
but under stage lighting they provide the theatre goer with the intended illusion.
Cameras record colours differently from the human eye.
This fact demands a series of skin shades produced in accordance with camera technology.
For photography and modelling most natural shades are required and KRYOLAN caters for such demand with its product range ULTRAFOUNDATION.
The permanence of make-up is extremely important for the make-up designer. The reapplication during shooting must be limited to an absolute minimum, since it lengthens expensive working time.
An actor markets his or her skin in the truest sense of the word. An appearance without make-up would be practically unthinkable.
The Make-up product used must therefore be highly compatible with the actor's skin.
KRYOLAN has always applied extremely high quality standards in this context.
All the raw materials employed, correspond not only to purity regulations of cosmetics, but also - whenever such materials are available - to stipulations applied for pharmaceutical or foodstuff quality.
The outstanding compatibility of each KRYOLAN product has been verified before marketing by voluntary dermatological tests on a clinical basis.
It its more than 50 years KRYOLAN never carried out any animal test.
The essential property of colour continuity over the years is not always easy to provide.
The pigments purchased by KRYOLAN from Germany, England, France, Italy and the USA do not always have identical colour intensities: a difficulty which can result in colour fluctuations in the final product.
In addition, modifications in legislation have resulted in the replacement of tried-and proven colours by new substances.
One consequence is that countless formulations must be revised, and it is not possible in all cases to recreate the desired nuance to the full satisfaction of the client.
KRYOLAN is conscious of the difficulties which such factors present for the make-up artist.
In order to better ensure the continuity of colours, KRYOLAN has implemented scientific technology in its laboratory which is rarely used for cosmetic purposes. At KRYOLAN today, most skin shades are controlled with the aid of a photo spectrometer: a device which highly accurately measures colours.
The measured results are analysed by means of software especially created for this purpose.
Good covering quality is universally expected from theatrical make-up - without, however, the necessity of the product being applied too thick. KRYOLAN satisfies this expectation by using a high share of especially finely ground pigments.
In addition to 8 grinding mills, 2 powder mills and a colloid mill, the KRYOLAN production department is also utilizing advanced micronization technology.
Product safety and reliability in our profession means the quality guarantee of the products.
It is precisely in this respect that KRYOLAN has earned a highly respected international reputation and we just as highly value the confidence which our clients have justifiably placed in us.
