Chanel Poudre Douce Soft Pressed PowderI make no effort to hide my undying love for Chanel, but no one should ever pay $50 for a powder. Not even if it's the smoothest, silkiest (talc) powder they've ever used. Not even if it smells like roses and comes in a luxurious mirrored compact with a separate (somewhat inconvenient), soft brush. Not even if it covers min...More Buy now: $47.00 - $49.50See more Chanel products

Laura Mercier Loose Setting PowderI don't know about you, but coating my face with French "cashmere" talc sounds almost as good as a bubble bath. Like any loose powder, this can get messy if its classic sifting canister is jerked around. The tinted powder inside reflects light with near-microscopic shimmer, providing a light finish that mutes smal...More Buy now: $32.00 - $39.00See more Laura Mercier products

MAC Mineralize SkinfinishSetting foundation with powder can look so powdered doughnut-like. That's why this baked, slightly luminescent, light-coverage powder is a keeper. It's matte enough to take away shine, but the bit of sheen makes it look more skin-like -- and no, it's not shimmery enough to highlight imperfections (I know that's what you wer...More Buy now: $40.00See more MAC products

Clinique Blended Face Powder and BrushThis large jar of finely ground powders "sets and perfects makeup" of varying quality and comes in seven basic shades that does a fine job of camouflaging pores and concealer. The sifter keeps powder-y mess to a minimum, unless the container bounces around a lot during travel. Then, it seeps everywhere. But why do...More Buy now: $19.00 - $25.50See more Clinique products

LORAC Perfectly Lit Oil-Free Luminizing PowderSimilar to Lancome Photogenic sheer pressed powder, this smooth finishing powder is designed to light up the face and detract attention from flaws by bouncing light off skin -- a must before photo ops. (The mirrored compact and thin, round applicator come in handy on the fly.) The handful of sheer, shimmery shades adapt to ...More Buy now: $32.00See more LORAC products

Bare Escentuals i.d. bareMinerals All-Over Face ColorDon't be fooled by the company's flowery language that these little powders add "luminosity" to the skin. They're basically bronzers. They get high marks for giving a nice, natural-looking glow (especially the Warmth shade). And it's true that they're made of natural ingredients and don't contain preservatives, so...More See more Bare Escentuals products

Clinique Stay-Matte Sheer Pressed PowderEvery girl needs a good blot now and then, and that's how this powder earns its stripes. The thin peach sponge does a fair job mattifying trouble spots and giving a deliberate satin finish to the T-zone. Be sure to blend with fingertips for a natural look. The sponge does collect skin oils, and it gets grungy, so be sure to...More Buy now: $17.95See more Clinique products

Bare Escentuals Mineral VeilA talc-free topper to the company's hotly debated mineral foundation, this pale peach powder adds dewy shimmer to eyes and cheekbones. But the same stuff that adds a nice highlight where you want it can just as easily draw attention where you don't: to your pores, fine lines and oily spots. Bottom line: Light to medium skin...More Buy now: $19.00See more Bare Escentuals products

Laura Mercier Secret Brightening PowderThe effect of this specialized loose powder is so subtle, I can see why they called it a "secret." The minute brightening power comes from shimmery mica particles mixed with a base of white/lightly tinted talc and silica. Effects are so faint, application may seem unnecessary; but the powder can help set concealer...More Buy now: $22.00 - $28.50See more Laura Mercier products
