Why do Thai Girls put white powder on their face? Educational Explanations
The use of white powder during Songkran, Thailand’s traditional New Year festival, has both cultural and symbolic roots.

Historically, the white powder—often a paste made from talcum powder or limestone powder mixed with water—was used by monks and elders to bless people. It was applied gently on the face or body along with water as a sign of protection and to ward off evil spirits. This act was a part of the ritual to bring good luck, cleanse misfortunes, and start the new year fresh.

Over time, especially among younger generations, it evolved into a fun, playful element of the water fights that now define modern Songkran celebrations. People smear the white paste on each other’s faces or cheeks as a friendly gesture, often while saying blessings or good wishes.

So while today it might seem like part of the fun, the tradition actually comes from a meaningful practice of purity, renewal, and spiritual cleansing.
