One day I was walking along and this beautifully colored window popped out at me and I had to stop in. Kryolan- I had never heard of it but they have been around a long time. The place makes you think your in a candy store of sorts. I have visited the store on three separate occasions, there is so much to look at ( and buy) and they have a polish line too. They offer privet lessons and workshops. And D'borah the owner is super knowledgeable and friendly. I plan to put together a custom makeup kit (more so for professional use) and Kryolan is where I am going to start. Very happy to have found such a unique place in Boston

Although they had a "soft opening" in Dec 2013, I just…read morediscovered Kryolan professional make-up at an open house they had last night...and glad I did! MAKE-UP: Being in the entertainment business myself, I am thrilled to discover their "HD Make-Up Line," which is specifically developed to look fabulous...even on HDTV. This cosmetic company is the official sponsor of the TV SHOW, "FACE OFF" (SYFY network), and also supply make-up to "NAKED IN VEGAS"...Yes, that is their body paint used on the show. STAFF: Kryolan makeup is 3rd generation family owned, and the staff was highly educated about their products. Definitely stop by their Back Bay Boston, and ask questions of their sales staff and make-up artist, as they have a wide variety of cosmetics for an array of applications. THE DEAL: All pigments are made from natural sources, whenever possible, and their makeup is "food grade quality." So, some *say* their products are "good enough to eat." Most Kryolan body paint actually *is* safe for skin absorption. In addition, a majority of their make-up is MADE IN THE USA!

I really want more people to find out about this lovely, perfect, inexpensive hidden gem…read more I found the Threla booth at the Sowa market this past summer, and had a field day trying to decide what I NEED vs. what I WANT. I love handmade sugar scrubs, and loved how natural everything is, so I purchased some sugar scrubs, soap, and a lip balm. This lasted me for many months, and recently went to seek out the owner's tiny shop in Cambridge. HOW ADORABLE! I went berserk, and purchased a candle, soaps, several lip balms, a body spray, lotion, body balm, and many more sugar scrubs. The owner was soooooo lovely, offering me a bonus lip balm (I spent a lot) and asking me a ton of specific questions about her products and how I'm liking them. I really love her, her shop, her products, and her mission; I want her to survive this crappy economy and keep making me products I plan to love for many years, all of which I absolutely adore. Really though- these are the best sugar scrubs I've ever tried- velvety and emollient, but not at all oily. Keeps my icky white girl skin problems at bay, and everything she makes smells great. I've tried all the most expensive and highest rated sugar scrubs on the market, and I love these the most. AND they're the least expensive! Score! Please go check out Threla- where else can you find Pandan soap?

I am SO HAPPY to have this wonderful shop in my neighborhood!…read more The owner is super nice . . . I was looking at the body washes, but didn't care for the scents that were available. She was in the process of making some new body washes for the shelf, and offered to make one for me with a different scent. I sniffed at the soaps and LOVED the plum blossom scent, so I asked if she could make me a body wash with that scent, and she did! I also got a mango-passion lip balm, which I love too. She gave me two samples of facial scrub, and they are awesome. I have to go back and get some of that. I like that her products are also fairly priced. A large bottle of the body wash was $9. Whenever I need a beauty product in the future, I will be back at Threla. :)
