Estee Lauder Double Wear Foundation Review

I don't wear foundation every day, but when I do use it, it needs to stay in place. I used this foundation on my wedding day, and it was fantastic. It stayed in place, it didn't feel too heavy and it looked natural in all the photos. A total win from my perspective.

When I wear this for more casual occasions, I tend to use a fair bit less of it, but it still stays in place. I have never felt like I was wearing too much make up while I had it on, and it matches my very pale skin nicely.

I can't really compare prices since I don't buy foundation enough to know what the 'going rate' is.

This by far is the best full coverage foundation I have ever used. It hides acne, redness, you name it and it really does stay on all day! It gives you a beautiful matte look that perfectly matches your skin tone and I always get compliments when I wear it. The only downside is that I have to limit how much I use it. I can't use it every day as it's a wee bit too heavy and makes me break out. I currently use this for special occasions only.

I fell in love with this product right away upon trying it for only 1 day! price wise, yes it is a bit expensive, but It is definitely worth it! I bought mine for $80 at Life Pharmacy and my shade is Rattan 84. It gives me that flawless finish, absolutely full-coverage. The first day I used it after purchase, it stayed on for sold 12 hours! Even my husband gave me a compliment on this. LOVE IT!

I only got this the other day but I absolutely love it, it doesn't smudge or change color you dont even need a setting powder, i find that when photographed the foundation looks alot whiter than in person, so i wouldnt recommend this for evenings (because of lighting) or for photos

This foundation is excellent for a flawless face if you are looking for a full coverage. It literally stays in place all day no matter how oily your skin is. However I have stopped using this foundation as it became too light for my skin over the warmer months, I would have to purchase two shades one for winter and one for summer. Colour matching for olive skin with yellow undertones can be quite tricky.

I have really oily skin and this is the first foundation that I've ever used that keeps me matte all day. It also has really good coverage and I only need a small amount to cover my whole face, so the bottle should last for ages. However, it does tend to cling to any dry spots quite badly so I have to be careful where I put it.

After trying numerous foundations and finding that I would have to touch then up while I work I decided to give double wear a go after hearing so much about it! I was matched and given samples to try and fell in love! I love a fuller coverage foundation as my skin can have quite a red undertone so this foundation is perfect for me and it stays put all day with nearly any touch up required if you wish to wear it during the night.

I have a love hate relationship with this foundation.

Love - because it stays on all day, it almost looks flawless and its full coverage, not sticky

Hate - can look cakey, you need the exact amount or less to make it look flawless, it can take a tiny dab of this to make you look cakey, it feels heavy, i can just feel it on my skin, its not a natural finish, you can definitely tell you're wearing foundation, can't find a spot on match to my skin tone, price is expensive

It seems like i have more cons than pros but i really do like this foundation but only on days I'm out and about all day, and you need a refresher like mac fix + or something to make it look less heavy and cakey

This foundation offers long staying power as well as medium / build able coverage. I would only recommended to people who have oily / combo skin as I think it would be too drying for other skin types !
