Looking to match to a skin tone? Rit and Ben Nye have developed a library of color formulas for cotton and nylon to match most skin tones.

In the guide there are tips for dying, powder to liquid conversion, scaling for dying, and both cotton and nylon formulas.

All formulas were developed in partnership with Ben Nye Makeup. The corresponding Ben Nye color and reference code is listed below each shade. Rit formulas were matched to actual Ben Nye MatteHD Foundations. Actual product color may vary from the web swatch (or digital color reference).

Ben Nye is a professional makeup brand serving artists, education and makeup fans worldwide. The company was founded by legendary Hollywood makeup artist, Ben Nye, Sr., in 1967, who used his extensive knowledge to create quality color cosmetics to serve the professional artist community.

The Ben Nye brand has broadened to encompass every genre of makeup including performance, beauty and special effects. Ben Nye remains a family business, with most products still hand-crafted in Los Angeles
