How To Use Ben Nye Banana Powder On Fair Skin

Ben Nye Banana Powder is a pretty popular product. It is a beautiful yellow powder that can give you an amazing highlight. Unfortunately, if you have fair skin this product does not work for you. I love Kim K, so when I found out she used this powder I needed to find a way to make it work on myself.

I did a bit of research and couldn't come up with anything. I seen on the site that I purchased this on that Ben Nye also had a powder called Super White Professional Powder. So I bought them both.

Basically, if you want to make this work you need to get your hands on a white powder or this particular one.

What you are going to do is mix the two together to create a beautiful yellow tinted light highlight color. To be honest, I prefer the color this makes apposed to any other highlighting powder I own.

It depends on how fair you are and how light you want this to be when it comes to how much of each you mix together. If you are really fair skinned like myself then you will want to mix more of the super white than the banana.

When I “bake” my face I always use these two powders mixed together.

I use either a dry beauty blending sponge or the Real Techniques Setting Brush. Both work great.

If you want a more in depth post on how I “bake” my face or how I contour and highlight in general than please let me know.

If I am not in the mood to mix the two powders together, another thing I do is take the super white and put on a layer of that, and then layer the banana powder over top. It is an amazing color and really helps cover up under eye dark circles. I also put this on the tip of my nose, on my chin, and underneath my contour to make it look more crisp and sharp.

Thank you all for ready and I will talk to you all in my next post.
