Mixing White is, as the title suggests, best for mixing colours as they retain their brightness and maintain the saturation of the colour, creating a subtle change. Our mixing white is made with zinc oxide, a highly transparent pigment with a  tenth of the tinting strength of Titanium White* (our famous and highly popular white). Its weakness makes it perfect for subtle lightening,  particularly in combination with other transparent colors. Use it to create softer – less pastel – effects. 

*Titanium White is an opaque white which lightens the colour, creating a muted pastel colour. It is made with titanium dioxide pigment and is the brightest white. It has a high opacity level and a clean, blue-toned appearance.  It’s an excellent choice for making tints but it can be too strong – so use it cautiously as it can dominate colors.
