Clairol’s Basic White 2+ Powder Lightener uses malic acid and a non-pigmented, dedusted formula to create bright, even lift up to nine levels, with clear visual progress as hair lightens. It mixes into a creamy paste for smooth, controlled application that supports consistent results across multiple techniques. Suitable for on- and off-scalp work, it performs well for highlights, foiling, color correction, and lifting previously colored hair, while the vegan, extra-strength formula helps deliver clean, precise lightening. For standard use, mix 2 scoops lightener to 3 scoops Clairol Professional Cream Developer (1:2 by weight), or use a 1:1.5 ratio with 40 Vol. developer for maximum lift; for on-scalp, do not exceed 20 Vol., avoid heat, and check every 510 minutes for up to 50 minutes.
