On Tuesday I wrote about T. LeClerc Pressed Powder, which I love not just for its smoothing, shine-reducing qualities but also for the fabulously luxe metal compact. Of course, not everyone will agree that T. LeClerc makes the world's best pressed powder, but that doesn't mean you can't have a stylist compact, too. Here are some of the coolest powder compacts I've found, each of which is an accessory in itself.
Estée Lauder Sun Goddess Compact, $60, available here.
Estee Lauder is known for its collectible compacts; this slightly psychedelic design houses bronzer.
Tarte Provocateur Mineral Pressed Powder SPF 8, $28, available here.
Sleek, lavender, and square, this quirky compact is a girly treat.
Two more, so read more
Becca Fine Pressed Powder, $38, available here.
This edgy, hyper-modern compact design comes with a protective pouch.
Body & Soul Two-in-One Face Powder, $35, available here.
A vampy siren adorns the top of this foundation-plus-powder combo.

I do need a good powder and one with a strong compact, I always break mine.
1they look pretty and i need a good compact too.
2These are way cute!
3Very nice! The Tom Ford era compacts at Estee Lauder are just awesome.
4I bet Atox will love the last one. I think its mighty sexy myself
5oh, so many choices, which one really does work? it's so damn overwhelming at times, to have all these selections telling us oh!! this one here will just do wonders, and this will do this, and that one will do that!! see what us girls have to go through with our make-up? do the men really know what we go through? lol of course we want to look our best, so we are aiming for the best products that will do just that! whats a girl to do??
61 and 4 are so cool..much nicer than my wet n wild powder or my cover girl.. girls on a budget just aren't as cool!
7I think they are all pretty, but reality check: Who really looks at them ... $60.00 for those things, damn !!
8I am not sure that pulling out a fab compact will enhance an image, but pulling out a crummy one will have the reverse effect. A little thing like a beautiful compact can be good for the soul.
9I saw an amazing powder compact collection, with the most beautiful compacts on www.collectionbuddy.com. I have a few that are really pretty.
