Mehron Ultra White Talc-Free Setting Powder — .85 oz Loose Setting Powder for Cream Makeup & Body Paint, Matte Finish

Mehron Ultra White Talc-Free Setting Powder is a finely milled loose powder designed to lock cream makeup, face and body paints, and cosplay bases into place for longer wear without adding talc.

Made in the USA and trusted by professional performers since 1927, this .85 oz (24 g) jar contains an ultra-white, talc-free formula in a convenient container with a removable sifter. The powder is formulated to absorb excess moisture from cream makeup and paints, reduce transfer, and create a matte finish while preserving color vibrancy when used with a setting spray.

How does this powder keep heavy cream makeup and body paint in place?

Mehron’s setting powder is finely milled to press into cream products and absorb surface moisture, which helps reduce slipping and smudging on stage or at events. It doesn’t cake when applied correctly and works under heat and bright lights that performers typically encounter.

• Finely milled texture for smooth application
• Press-and-dust method: press with a powder puff, then dust excess
• Reduces tackiness of cream-based paints and makeup
• Compatible with barrier and setting sprays for longer hold

Will this powder change the color or finish of my makeup?

The Ultra White shade can slightly lighten very sheer colors if over-applied, but when used sparingly or sealed with Mehron Barrier Spray, it preserves the underlying hue and restores vibrancy. For full-color fidelity, apply a light press-and-blend and remove excess to avoid a powdery haze.

• Ultra White works best over opaque or theatrical bases
• Use a light hand to avoid visible whitening on delicate blends
• Follow with barrier spray to lift any powder haze and enhance color
• Ideal for stage, cosplay characters, and high-coverage face paint

How should I apply this talc-free setting powder for professional results?

Use a powder puff to press the powder into cream makeup, concentrating on areas prone to shine or movement, then sweep away excess with a soft powder brush. The jar’s removable sifter helps control amount; repeat in layers for heavy-duty situations like long performances or hot conditions.

• Apply liberally with a powder puff to set and absorb moisture
• Dust off excess using a fluffy powder brush for a natural finish
• Reapply in thin layers for extended wear; avoid overloading at once
• Finish with Mehron Barrier Spray to lock and revive color if necessary

What container size and travel features does this product offer?
