I was expecting a bit more from this foundation. The coverage and staying power is good however I have oily skin and I found it to be quite drying on my skin. I'm not sure what I could be doing wrong, I have tried using primer and moisuriser underneath but still no difference. I prefer a dewy look and this is more matte on me, so unfortunately because of this I won't be buying again.

I have tried so many foundations but this one is the best of all the coverage is amazing has a great finish and lasts all day
Tips: It's a must to try
I tried this on my skin. It's very full coverage and it also breaks out my skin. It really did last long as it says it does but unfortunatly because of my skin type I can never use it again. I have another friend that has it and loves it. It's good for night as it lasts 12 or more hours but for day time it's a no no unless you want a full coverage foundation.
I have used this foundation and just love it. It stays on for ever without smudging and gives excellent cover. It has kept me fearless during hectic time at work without the stress of thinking how my makeup looks like in the afternoon or towards the end of the day. It keeps me fresh throughout the day and no touch up is needed. I will recommend the product to anyone who wants to have a fearless full cover foundation for the active days of their life. You will love it too.
Tips: Sometimes you can mix 2 covers to get your skin tone if unable to find your perfect match
I've been using Estee Lauder Doublewear for 12 years. It provides the best coverage for my acne scarred skin. As I've aged (now 36), it continues to cover and blend the best out of all I've tried. I've tried a few other cheaper foundations over the years, but they either become see-through after a few hours, or change colour. Doublewear doesn't change, stays on for 12+ hours. Although I do find myself blotting the T-zone after about 4 hours, but that ok with me. I also carry a cover stick for around the nose after 8 hours. Also, I have had to put extra moisturiser on, especially during winter when my skin is very dry, I've found this as I've aged - Doublewear can be very drying, especially around the eyes, so a good eye cream is critical. A good primer is important too, as it smooths the Doublewear on easily. Hence only 4 stars.
I'm not sure if I was matched to the wrong shade at the Estee lauder counter or not, but my experiences with Double Wear haven't been overly fantastic. I found it oxidised quickly on my face and just didn't look right. However it really did stay the distance and I was really impressed with how well it wore throughout the day. The price is also a little high but if it suits your skin, it would make sense in investing in this foundation. I am going to give it another go, and try a lighter shade. If I find I have a different experience next time i'll be sure to update my review!
I've always been on the look out for a great foundation that truly does stay put and gives a flawless finish! It's got really good coverage, and stays that way even through rain, sweating and working out.
Tips: Definitely want to make sure you take it off before you go to bed and also exfoliate regularly as it does tend to stick a little to any dry skin
One of the best foundations I have tried. Lasts all night long and doesn't oxidise, go patchy or cling to dry patches. Love it and would recommend to anyone
Tips: A good primer and setting spray is key
I love that foundation, I was tried so many but thar one is my favorite. I have problem skin and that foundation give s me really good coverage. And it s looks on my skin good whole day .
Tips: Only need be used with primer .
This is my go to foundation! I use it every day and find it lasts so well until about the 15 hour mark, I almost never need to touch it up! If I do, I have the double wear foundation cream compact in my handbag. It's a matte foundation which is perfect for me and while some others have mentioned it can be drying, I find with a good moisturiser and primer it doesn't dry my skin out any worse than any other foundation.
Tips: Get your shade sorted either at Sephora or an Estee Lauder counter, they'll give you samples if you're not 100% sold too!
