If You Like Going Bare-Faced
Try: RMS Beauty Tinted "Un" Powder, $34

Ultra-fine and lightweight, this defines no-makeup makeup. While we were already big fans of the original translucent variety, it now comes in a tinted version (in three shades) that's ideal for both absorbing oil and delivering a super sheer veil of coverage to make it look like you woke up like this.

If You Need to Seriously Set Your Makeup
Try: Rodial Baking Powder, $48

In case you haven't heard, baking your makeup is one of the most popular tricks the pros use for creating a completely flawless complexion; this newbie was made just for that. (You dust a layer of powder over your foundation and concealer, then let it "bake" for 10 minutes while the heat of your skin locks in the product, then remove the powder.) Not your jam? Don't worry, this loose option is also great for setting makeup the ol' fashioned way or tamping down shine. Credit spherical powders that create a soft-focus effect so that skin looks matte, but not dry.

If Your Skin Is Dry
Try: Laura Geller Filter Fix Baked Correcting Setting Powder, $33

It may sound like an oxymoron, but with ingredients like shea butter extract and glycerin, Laura Geller's latest both hydrates and mattifies skin simultaneously. Extra kudos for the universally flattering, brightening apricot hue, and a jar that features a mesh opening -- instead of traditional holes -- to dispense just the right amount of product.

Supersheer and velvety, this loose formula offers lightweight coverage, camouflaging the look of prominent pores or any other imperfections to make your complexion look completely even, but never flat. Available in three tinted shades, it also comes in a translucent variety, offering something for everyone, no matter their powder preference.
