Step 3: Powder

Kalyn Hemphill: PowderEvery woman should have a go-to translucent pressed powder from the drugstore. It's an essential to set concealer and foundation and portable for touch-ups. Physicians Formula's high-quality "airbrushing" powder is a terrific finishing powder for a flawless glowy look; best for dry and normal skin. Physicians Formula's "youth-boosting" mattifying powder is a nice pick for combo and oily skin. Both come with a flat synthetic mini-brush. Tip: Buy a cotton pressed-powder puff, to put inside the compact, to use for touch-ups! “This Mineral Wear pressed powder is great for setting my makeup in places where I normally get oily—like my chin, nose, and forehead. I also sweep some under my eyes to keep my concealer in place!” Physicians Formula: Mineral Wear Talc-Free Mineral Airbrushing Pressed Powder SPF 30 in Translucent, $13.95 Physicians Formula: Youthful Wear Cosmeceutical Youth-Boosting Mattifying Powder in Translucent, $13.95
