Mehron Colorset Setting Powder Ultra White (24 g)

Mehron Colorset Setting Powder Ultra White is a white setting powder for white and light cream face paint. It mattifies the paint and helps keep it in place. Because the powder itself is white, a white base stays white. The 24 gram pot is talc-free.

What is Colorset Ultra White?

A setting powder is a fine powder you press into fresh cream face paint or grease paint. It absorbs excess moisture and oil, which turns a shiny, tacky layer into a dry, matte one. Your work is then less likely to transfer onto clothing and it stays neat for longer. Ultra White is the white shade in the Colorset range by Mehron, made for theatre, cosplay, face and body paint and special effects. The powder is vegan and not tested on animals.

Why choose a white powder?

Over a white base, such as clown white or a face painted white, this powder strengthens the white. Over a colour it makes that colour lighter. If you want the colour underneath to stay exactly as it is, or you are working on deep skin tones or dark paint, choose Colorset Translucent. That powder has no colour, so it leaves no white cast.

How do you use this powder?

Apply your cream face paint and let it settle for a moment. Load a powder puff generously and press the powder into the paint. Do not rub, or the layer underneath will shift. Dust off the excess with a soft powder brush.

Setting and removing

The powder is the setting step itself. Mehron recommends finishing with a layer of Barrier Spray for the best result. Remove with a make-up remover, such as Makeup Remover Cream, followed by soap and water.
