Review Bedak Pisang SBP1: Apakah Bedak Setting Ini Layak Dibeli di Tahun 2026?

Setting powder is a makeup bag essential, and banana powder has become a cult favorite for brightening under-eyes and setting the t-zone. Crownbrush’s Banana Powder SBP1 promises a finely milled, yellow-toned formula that works for a range of skin tones. In this review, we put it to the test—examining texture, color payoff, and how it holds up during baking and all-day wear.

Whether you’re a professional makeup artist or a beauty enthusiast, finding the right setting powder can make or break your look. We’ve tested the Banana Powder SBP1 for weeks to give you an honest verdict. Keep reading for swatches, application tips, and a comparison with other popular powders.

First Impressions and Packaging

The Banana Powder SBP1 comes in a sturdy, clear plastic jar with a screw-top lid and a sifter insert. The packaging is practical and allows for easy dispensing without making a mess. The powder itself is a soft, pale yellow—true to the classic banana powder shade. It has a subtle, pleasant scent that dissipates quickly after application.

Upon first touch, the powder feels silky and lightweight. It’s not overly chalky, which is a good sign for a setting powder. The yellow tone is designed to neutralize purple or blue undertones, making it ideal for brightening the under-eye area and adding warmth to the complexion.

• Tip: Use a damp beauty sponge for baking—the powder adheres well and doesn’t flash back in photos.

Performance: Baking and Setting

We tested the Banana Powder SBP1 using both a fluffy brush for all-over setting and a damp sponge for baking under the eyes. For baking, we applied a thick layer, let it sit for 5-10 minutes, then dusted off the excess. The result was a smooth, brightened under-eye area with no creasing. The powder blended seamlessly into the skin without looking cakey.

For all-over setting, a light dusting with a brush left the skin with a natural, soft-focus finish. It controlled shine on the t-zone for about 6 hours before a light touch-up was needed. On oily skin, the longevity was impressive—no major breakthrough oil until the 8-hour mark. The powder also didn’t settle into fine lines or pores.

• Tip: For a brighter under-eye, pair with a concealer one shade lighter and set immediately.

Shade Range and Skin Tone Compatibility

Banana Powder SBP1 is a single shade, which may be limiting for deeper skin tones. The yellow undertone works best for light to medium skin tones, especially those with warm or neutral undertones. On fair skin, it can add a subtle warmth; on medium skin, it brightens without looking ashy. Deeper skin tones may find it too light, though it can still be used as a brightening powder for targeted areas.

For a more universal option, consider layering it over foundation or mixing with a translucent powder. Crownbrush also offers other setting powders, but this banana shade is a standout for its color-correcting benefits.

• Tip: If you have deeper skin, try using Banana Powder SBP1 only under the eyes and set the rest of the face with a translucent powder.

Comparison with Other Setting Powders

Compared to classic translucent powders, Banana Powder SBP1 offers a slight color correction that can reduce darkness and add warmth. It’s less mattifying than some heavy-duty powders but provides a natural glow. In our tests, it performed similarly to high-end banana powders at a fraction of the price.

For those who prefer a more luminous finish, the Lavish Lipgloss - NY06 is a great companion for a glossy lip look. For brush application, the PL-C331 Red Sable Oval Brush is excellent for precise powder placement. And if you need a quick clean-up, the Pro Makeup Wipes (30 WIPES) MW01 are perfect for removing excess powder without irritating the skin.

Overall, Banana Powder SBP1 is a reliable setting powder that delivers on its promises: brightening, blurring, and long-lasting wear. It’s a great addition to any makeup kit, especially for those who love the baked look. To see it in action, grab the 1-1/2" Jumbo Foundation Brush C707J for flawless application.
