Estee Lauder Double Wear Foundation Review

I am in love with this foundation! The only fault is that there is no pump on the foundation bottle but that can be overlooked easily. The packaging is really nice although it can be easy to accidentally pour out too much product. The scent isn't anything special, and it is such a nice consistency. I apply this with a beauty blender and it looks so flawless, I didn't get quite the same finish with a foundation brush however. I would definitely recommend this foundation, although its a good idea to get a sample beforehand just in case you don't like it, as it is a very pricey foundation.

Like the title states this is hands down the best foundation I've used thus far. I have a bit of scarring and still get the odd pimple and this full coverage covers it so well requiring me to use LESS concealer than what i would normally use with other foundations. It is a thicker consistency and oxidizes quite quickly so you need to work with it at pace. It states that it feels lightweight which to me it doesn't. But it definitely is long lasting. I've worn it to all night festivals so we are talking dancing, sweating, squashed up against people, heat, humidity and it is still just as good when the sun comes up as it was when I put it on as the sun was going down (its normally my eye makeup that fails me). The packaging is OK. Kinda cute. Frosted glass with gold. I would definitely use this again and have already recommended it to many people.

This is my holy grail foundation! The coverage is the best I've seen on a foundation and the consistency is just right. In addition there are so many shades and tones to choose from so you will be able to pick one that matches your natural skin tone almost exactly! I mix two shades: 2W2 Rattan and 3W1 Tawny to get the perfect shade. Although the price is quite high; almost $70 RRP for a standard 30ml bottle in NZ, it is definitely worth splurging on and I will continue to purchase Estee Lauder's Double Wear foundation over and over again. It keeps your face matte, which is perfect for my oily ance prone skin, and has amazing staying power.

I first got a sample of this from my local pharmacy, hoping I wouldn't fall in love with it but guess what.. I did! The smallest amount of product goes the longest way so I thought it was jusified to spend the money because the bottle would truely last. This was the first high end foundation I had ever used and after using it I find it hard to go back to my drugstore foundations and be satisfied. The coverage is amazing, gives your skin a healthy look although it's so full coverage, which sounds impossible but I was proven wrong by this foundation! It lasts amazing on my oily skin for at least 10 hours. All my products on top blend amazingly like my bronzer and contour. All in all I love love it!

I love this product, I used it as my wedding foundation. You only need a tiny bit, it covers well, the colour is great and it lasts forever. It's matte and kept my super oily skin shine free for the majority of the day.

For a long time now I've stuck to my BB creams for a bit of light coverage through out the day. However with a wedding coming up I wanted so get really slammed up and go for an all day look that would last.

I trailed this product after a consultation at Farmers and a small sample was taken home. Immediately I was hooked and had to get my hands on a bottle of my own. The foundation matched my skin tone beautifully and covers my freckles beautifully. I found in the heat of summer even when I perspired my make up stood the test of time. The consistency of this product is magic, it smoothes and spreads nicely and drys quickly however I can revisit and blend areas I've missed with my fingers easily without the product flaking or rubbing away. Even when I hopped in our pool and got a little splashed my skin still looked amazing afterwards without any smudging or running. This is a must have product for a lasting look of 15hours, I'm very happy with little investment.

I brought this a few months ago and have used it with a brush and a beauty blender. The staying power of this foundation is awesome. I put it on the back on my hand when applying and would get to work some days and find I had forgotten to wash it off my back of my hand. I would literally have to wait until I got home and use makeup remover or wipe to get it off as washing it under the tap never works. I love the feel of this foundation. To me it feels like I am not wearing foundation. I would normally avoid wearing foundation as the feel of it can irritate me all day. This foundation is not the best for people with dry skin. I sometimes get a dry nose and this foundation looks particularly bad on those dry flaky areas. Unfortunately the colour I purchased was a little dark for me so I have given it to my mother and she is loving it. I definitely plan to purchase it again in the near future.

This foundation is a MACHINE. I have never used a foundation before where I have felt comfortable wearing without a power. One layer with a beauty blender gives me full coverage and lasts all day, it's actually almost a pain to take off. I bought it for my wedding but I did notice some oxidising when my face got hot - it would turn slightly orangey. But once my face has cooled down it goes back to normal. I think I may not have been colour matched correctly, so once this bottle has run out I will try a lighter colour.

I did end up using a different foundation for my wedding that suited my colouring a bit better, but I still use this 2-3 times a week when I know I will be hot/sweaty or having a long day.

This is perfect. The best foundation that I've ever tried. I have repurchased this 3 times!!! It's my go to foundation. It works perfectly on me. It's long wearing and doesn't feel cakey. It even gave me a glow. Love this

Was lucky to get given this from a friend who bought from Estée Lauder counter and cosmetic girls recommended the wrong shade but lucky for me, pebble is the perfect shade yay! I love this, has max coverage but doesn't feel heavy unlike others (revlon colorstay), but for everyday makeup I mix with my norm moisturiser and apply instead, gives perfect even looking skin.. Price point for me is the only issue, but hey it is worth it!
