What is Banana Powder and how do I use it?
- 2 min reading time
You know it, the yellow powder that became famous because Kim Kardashian always uses it: Banana powder! But what is it and how do you actually use it?
Banana powder is meant to make your face look fresher, to make your skin more even and to highlight. Real miracle stuff!
How does it work?
Banana powder is suitable for almost all skin tones, except for very light skin. Because there is a lot of pigment in the powder, banana powder & light skin is not a good match.
Your skin can look a bit gray with just foundation . Or have a pink undertone that you don't have anywhere else on your body. Banana powder has (how could it be otherwise) a yellow undertone, with this you lighten your skin a bit. This way your look is immediately a lot fresher and you radiate all day long!
After your foundation, apply a small amount of the banana powder all over your face. This way, your foundation will immediately look less gray or pink and the color on your face will more closely match the color of the rest of your body. Sounds good, right?
What is beacon?
You can also use banana powder to 'bake', which is what Kim K does. Baking involves applying the powder to certain areas of your face and letting it soak in before removing it. This also allows the makeup underneath to set and soak in much better.
Baking will instantly make your face look much brighter and the areas where you applied the powder will immediately pop! This is because the color is slightly lighter than the areas where you didn't apply it.
How do you beacon?
Baking is super easy to do. Apply the banana powder under your eyes, on your nose, on your chin and under your cheekbones. Then let the powder sit for 5 to 10 minutes so that everything sets nicely. Then remove the remaining loose powder with a soft powder brush . Once you have done that, your skin is completely on fleek and you have the real classic Kim Kardashian look!
