Big-screen stardom? Check. Gorgeous guy? Check. Adorable baby with said-gorgeous guy? Check. Michelle Williams pretty much has it all — including flawless, porcelain-inspired skin. Scoring Heath Ledger may not be in the cards for the rest of us, but now we know how she keeps her complexion so perfect: NIA 24’s Sun Damage Prevention 100% Mineral Sunscreen SPF 30 ($55, nia24.com). “I love NIA 24’s sunscreen. It’s the best I’ve ever tried,” she says of the sunscreen that, thanks to its natural mineral base, lasts for hours and won’t irritate even the most sensitive skin. StyleWatch staffers also swear by the oil-free sun protection that actually helps repair existing sun damage.

We knew that Mischa Barton loved her Juicy Couture lace dress so much that she had to have it in two colors, but now we can add Ashley Tisdale to the list of stars who have this airy frock — we’ve spotted Debra Messing and Molly Sims in the style too! Part of the fun of multiple stars wearing the same outfit is to see how differently they accessorize, and this Fashion Faceoff is no different! Mischa adds a touch hipster flair with her straw fedora, while Ashley goes luxe with her multi-colored Louis Vuitton bag. We want to know what you think! Tell us: Who wears their green lace dress better: Mischa or Ashley?

Love the dress? Get it in white at neimanmarcus.com, $328.
