Soft mineral powder (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

talc

'soft mineral powder' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for talc that I've seen before include "Toilet powder - mica" , "Mineral used as a toiletry" , "After-bath powder" , "Powder used as toiletry" , "I may dust" .)

I've seen this clue in The New York Times.
