is the fourth single by Japanese entertainer Miho Nakayama. Written by Mariya Takeuchi, the single was released on February 5, 1986, by King Records.
Background and release "Iro White Blend" was used by Shiseido for their spring 1986 commercials featuring Nakayama.
During the recording of the song, songwriter Mariya Takeuchi coached Nakayama in pronouncing the English lines of the lyrics. On live performances of the song, fans would wave white-colored handkerchiefs, towels, and hats.
"Iro White Blend" peaked at No. 5 on Oricon's weekly singles chart and sold over 223,000 copies, making it Nakayama's biggest-selling single until "Waku Waku Sasete" was released later that year.
Takeuchi self-covered the song on her 1987 album Request. Nakayama self-covered the song on her 2019 album Neuf Neuf.
