You don't need much at all, I personally have only owned the 10 day sample, ( which ended up lasting me just over two weeks!) But when I have enough money I will definitely be purchasing the full size bottle! amazing coverage, very build able, it feels very lightweight and doesn't look like your wearing anything at all! On top of all that it stays on all day!

Reviews
I absolutly loved this foundation! I have oily skin and that means that i struggle to find a foundation that will actually stay on all day. This is the only foundation that has ever stayed on all day and night until i took it off. I love this foundation so much! The only downside is the price, but you pay for what you get and this is suh an amazing high quality foundation. Totally reccomend it!
Tips: Use the 'take it away' make up remove with it to remove it at the end of the day and never sleep with it in as i found it clogged my pores if i went out a night and couldn't be bothered washing it off early hours.
I looked at the reviews on here, and thought wow that's what I am looking for.
This has a great coverage and goes on easily with a brush. Creates a great look for day and night and yes, it does last all night long. I find after a few hours my foundation usually goes a bit greasy and I get that shiny look. This foundation doesn't give me this at all and that's why I love it. Covers all my blemishes well too. I would recommend this product, give it a go you won't be disappointed.
This foundation is a fantastic all rounder, you can wear it light or build up for evening wear if needed, I've tried to change but nothing compares to Doublewear.
Although the price is up there, it lasts really well & can be used sparingly to still get medium cover.
Because the SPF is rather low in comparison to other foundations, when getting a photo at night, your face doesn't come up bright white with the flash
Tips: I always tone and moisturise before applying, this makes it much easier to spread and ensures that getting even coverage is easy peasy!
I'm on my third bottle of this bad boy, which has NEVER happened before, so that says a lot!
Double Wear definitely has some spectacular staying power going on (incredibly important for my combination oily skin - even most long wear foundations start sliding off my forehead by late afternoon, but not Double Wear!), and despite being what I would consider a mid to full coverage foundation it's still surprisingly buildable, so when I'm having a rare good skin day I can use a very light hand and get a lovely natural 'barely there' look. Alternatively, you can really build it up for a flawless, airbrushed look for events and parties.
Most days, though, a normal application of the mid-full cover is fantastic for my acne-prone, ruddy skin and evens things out beautifully without sitting heavily on the skin like a lot of fuller coverage foundations do. A lot of them tend to look or feel 'cakey', but I don't find that with the Double Wear at all.
My only lament is that while they have a fantastic range of colours, they just don't quite go yellow enough for my skin tone - but I make it work with some peach toned bronzer on my neck and chest!
Tips: You definitely want to use a brush or sponge for a really flawless application, and while you don't have to RUSH like you do with some foundations, if it does dry it becomes fairly difficult to blend so you do want to work moderately quickly.
Their colours have a tendency to oxidise a bit, so they can change colour a smidge over the first half an hour or so of wear - so make sure you go to a pharmacy or department store that will let you take a sample pottle away to make sure you've got the right colour match!
Oh, and make sure you moisturise 10 minutes before you apply - I find it harder to work with if my skin is too dry!
Got given this from my mum as the shade she had didn't suit her face tone so she gave it to me and it just happened to be just the right shade for me, gosh I must say this is probably the best Foundation I have used and OMG it glided onto my face so smoothly I ended up just using my middle finger as I thought the sponge I had wouldn't be the greatest since it had other foundation on it. There was no smell to it really and I found that I didn't need touching up thro the day and still at the end of a day my face was still looking pretty. after the bottle had finished I went to Ballantynes to see how much it was and OMG it is very expensive, so didn't end up buying and don't ever think I could afford that much to spend on foundation even though I found it was the best I had ever used. I think ill just stick to my budget range. lol but overall far-out this one is a goodie !!!
I first off have to admit I'm pretty keen on reasonable coverage, and EstƩe Lauder's double wear fits bill perfectly it gives great coverage, it's not at all oily and lasts from morning through till going out on the town ( with a wee freshen up of course ) I would highly recommend this for ladies that like a bit coverage with their foundation.
I had heard a lot of great reviews about double wear and wanted to try it for a while. First thing first - it is as good as everyone makes it out to be. I got colour matched in store which was awesome. The product itself is very long lasting. No touch ups required. If you sleep in it by accident after a long night out, it won't end up all over your pillowcase and you will probably look the same as the night before. Pleasant smelling. You only need a small amount to cover your whole face. It really is a full coverage foundation. I have had many comments about having 'perfect skin' while wearing this. It doesn't dry out my skin or leave it oily.
Looks as good at the end of the day as what it did in the morning.. slight wear on my nose from rubbing but probably the best foundation I've ever used. For such a good coverage it is still light and flexible on skin.. came on beauty review to find a good foundation and so glad the reviews steered me to buying estee lauder double wear as the reviews were right :)
Tips: Apply with brush or sponge. Using fingers seems to make you look cakey and heavy
I spent 2 years on a beauty counter at farmers, and have to admit that every single cosmetician would use this! Especially on late nights leading up to xmas, working until midnight this was everyone's pick for foundation, for the coverage but mainly because it does not budge! (we had to pretend that it was the brand we were working for) This is the best longwear foundation i have come across so far, the only drawback being on drier skins you can feel it. My skin gets very dry, and i find sometimes It makes my skin feel a bit tight - however this is rare! The coverage can also be nice and full, which is perfect for me however they do have a lightweight option for people who dont like it heavy.
