estee lauder

so i have very oily skin and have alot of acne scarring and i love love love this foundation it is very cream but very buildable it stays on all day

the staying power is amazing i only wear on special occasions as it is very expensive the only down fall i have on the product is the colour range is not that great i have to put a darker setting powder on top to match my skin as its slightly lighter shade if i went up a shade its totally off but overall its amazing

Tips: prime and work it in with a kabuki brush to give a flawless finish

Great foundation but......

I love this foundation, my skin has acne scarring and redness and the foundation covers it all up!

The staying power is fantastic, if I was to wear it out clubbing, parties etc it would never let me down! Makes your skin look flawless and youthful!

BUT!!... The colour range isn't the best, I have fair skin and I got the shade in sand beige, the lady who tried it on me said it was my shade, but I had a make up line and my neck was white, I was not impressed!! I find there foundations more orange toned..

Overall this is a great foundation except for the colour range :)

Tips: Apply quickly with foundation brush as it tends to dry fast :)

I absolutely loved this foundation, i applied it before going out to a party and it was still on perfectly the next morning! My face didn't feel dry or cakey, the foundation didn't transfer. Fantastic!

Liquid gold!

I own 15+ foundations (oops?) and this is still hands-down my favourite for coverage and staying power! My go-to foundation for work where I have to look polished, all day, and don't have time to be checking and touching up. I can put it on at 6am and come home at 6pm with it looking pretty much as good as it did when I first applied it. My skin can get very patchy and red but it's great at covering that. It also stays fairly matte, especially in areas such as the sides of my nose and my chin, where I tend to develop shine first. It is pricey but I don't regret my investment one bit

Tips: Definitely recommend getting a sample from a counter if you have any doubts - have heard that it just doesn't agree with dry skin!

My skin is fairly normal with a slightly oily t-zone but I still moisturise before applying this (and exfoliate regularly because it does pick up any patchiness from dead skin).

With a damp Beauty Blender it applies like a dream! Just couldn't get it to work with a brush. With the BB it also uses heeaps less product. I went through mine very quickly at first which annoyed me. I started challenging myself to see how little I could use, and with the BB I was pleasantly surprised at how little I needed to achieve the same amount of coverage as I was getting before. Also, I pour mine onto a flat plastic compact (etc.) before applying, as it uses so much less, and helps me to get a more even layer on my Beauty Blender.

WOW

I fell in love with this foundation when I first discovered it. After years and years of looking for a foundation that would actually stay on my face for the entire day this one its like magic to me.

I cant say enough good things about this product and have since gotten other people onto it as well.

All time fav

This is really worth the penny's! Absolute perfect all day coverage! Is a thicker consistency but you don't need much to cover your face and you don't need to re apply at all so the cost of it works out better than a cheaper one you need to top up throughout the day, I've been sing with this one and looked awesome out of the pool. Only thing I would avoid is dry skin tends to be magnified using this.so keep your face hydrated :-)

Tips: Enjoy!!!

Estee Lauder Doublewear foundation

It certainly has a full coverage, I'll give it that. I'll also say that if you're at all dry skinned..proceed with caution. It has the tendency to emphasize dry areas and settle into lines..so perhaps use a foundation brush to get a nice even coverage, and don't use too close to the eye area. The lasting power is great, it does last without changing on the skin (I'm a dry combination skin type). I do prefer it's new little sister, Doublewear light foundation though, as this has a bit more of a glow to it while still delivering lasting power.

Tips: A little goes a long way, and work quickly with this as once it's set, well, it's definitely set! Remove with an oil based cleanser, foaming cleanser in the shower won't budge this once!

Not a better foundation!

I've struggled so much to find a perfect foundation for my skin and always spent $20-$30 on foundations which didn't really do much because they were cheaper. I decided i'd pay a little bit extra for foundation that really works. I love matte foundations as I have very oily skin so i've found double wear works perfectly. I find its long lasting when going out i don't need to touch up when going night clubbing as long as I have a good powder on aswell. The coverage is amazing and I would highly recommend.

The best foundation

This is my go to foundation! I wear it all day every day and I love it so much. I have normal to oily skin and it lasts all day and into the night without having to reapply and still looks like I've just applied it. Its medium to full coverage, really blendable and looks amazing on. I don't even need to wear a concealer with this foundation, it covers any imperfection really well. Doesn't go patchy or uneven and best of all no shine! Even during the hot sweaty summer months!

Tips: Applying a light weight moisturizer then a primer will help your foundation last alot longer and will make application easy :)
