Ben Nye White Face Powder — Super White 1.5 oz translucent finishing powder, ultra-fine

This 1.5 oz jar of Ben Nye Classic Translucent Face Powder in Super White provides a concentrated, blendable white finish used by makeup artists for stage, film, cosplay, and editorial looks. The formula is ultra-fine to minimize texture while delivering strong whiteness that can be built up or sheered out. Because it mixes readily with other powders and pigments, it becomes a flexible tool: use it alone to achieve a stark white appearance or blend a small amount with skin-tone shades to lift and highlight specific areas.

How do I use this powder to get an even, non-cakey finish?

Apply sparingly with a soft brush or powder puff, tapping off excess before smoothing it across the face. Work in thin layers, buffing between applications to build opacity only where you need it. For long wear, layer over a slightly tacky cream or setting spray to lock the powder into place.

• Use a fluffy brush for light diffusion, a dense puff for fuller coverage.
• Tap off excess to avoid visible powder lines.
• Buff in circular motions for seamless blending.

Can I mix this Super White powder with other shades?

Yes — the powder blends easily with other Ben Nye shades or loose pigments to create custom tones. Add small amounts to a neutral powder to gently brighten, or mix with colored powders to desaturate and cool tones. Mixing lets you control opacity and avoid an unnaturally flat finish while keeping the powder’s silky texture.

• Start with pea-sized amounts when customizing colors.
• Create highlights by blending with warm or cool skin shades.
• Test mixes on a palette before applying to skin.

How many applications will I get from the 1.5 oz jar?

Coverage depends on application style: heavier theatrical layers use more product, while light setting uses far less. Expect roughly 50–100 uses per ounce when used as a finishing or setting powder, so a 1.5 oz jar typically yields between 75 and 150 applications. Keep in mind stage or special effects looks that require dense white coverage will reduce the total number of uses.

• Light setting: higher application count (near 100 per ounce).
• Theatrical/opaque coverage: lower count (closer to 50 per ounce).
• 1.5 oz provides flexible quantity for trial, travel, or professional kits.

Will this powder show up under photography and stage lights?

Because the Super White shade is intensely pigmented, it registers well under bright lights and on camera. Use moderation to avoid flashback in closely lit photography — blending and layering will help control reflectivity. For stage work, the powder’s opacity makes it excellent for character makeup and dramatic highlights.

• High visibility under stage lights, ideal for theatrical characters.
• Blend and buff to reduce flashback for close-up photography.
• Pair with setting spray to improve longevity under hot lights.

Who is this for: Ben Nye White Face Powder is intended for makeup artists, performers, cosplayers, and anyone who needs a dependable super-white translucent powder for creative or professional use. It’s a practical choice for those building a kit for stage, film, special effects, or editorial beauty, and for individuals who want precise control over brightness and opacity through mixing and layering.
