Top Shine Tackler

WINNER: Lancome Matte Finish Shine-Control Sheer Pressed Powder, $22

No chick wants an oil slick to foil her foundation or make her look like she just hiked across the Sahara. Thankfully, the shine-fighting gals on our staff did the research to find the ultimate compact for greasy complexions. This little powder packs high-tech ingredients that actually absorb perspiration and oil to control shine. The yellowish tint will flatter any skin tone.

* Keep your powder sponge fresh and free of bacteria by washing it weekly in warm water and a tiny drop of baby shampoo.

Sexiest Star-Worthy Shimmer

WINNER: Stila All Over Shimmer Powder #6, $30

The downfall of so many sparkle potions is that they can douse you in chunky glitter and leave you looking like a disco ball. The trick is to find a powder containing superfine particles that impart a luminescent glow rather than a glittery glare. Our staffers said this formula fit the bill and created the perfect sheer-pink highlight for cheeks, collarbones, and cleavage (yes, we practice what we preach!).
