Estee Lauder Double Wear Stay in Place Makeup

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.

Tips: Exfoliate well before using it!

expensive, but worth it!

tried two samples of this and absolutely loved. it's great coverage and more natural looking rather than cakey. expensive, but would love to buy! waiting for the day i have saved up enough, as i am only a poor 14 year old student :(

Perfection

I had this foundation used on me on me for a girlfriends wedding, being one of the bridesmaids we had quite a full on busy day,I loved that I didn't feel like a was wearing heaps of make up, it had such a flawless finish and it stay on from 6am in the morning til the wee hours of the next day!

Needless to say i went and purchased some the following monday, I use the pale almond and I still swear by this foundation for any special event that i need my make up to last.

The price does tend to put you off abit, but then again when you find a product that really works, price has no boundaries for me although i find i tend to not wear it on just a normal day as i like the product to last for awhile.

Absolutely love this foundation, the colour match is perfect for me and doesn't have an orange tinge some some foundations do, gives me perfect coverage everytime! Its not a high shine finish which is great too!

Convinced!

I had heard really good things about this foundation from friends and on here but I was skeptical, and at $80-$90 a bottle I was kind of hoping the hype was exaggerated! I went to my local Farmers and did a colour match and free application as well as go a free sample to use over the next week. I fell in love instantly. The coverage is incredible and it really does stay all day! I use a primer underneath to help but really I can put this on at 6 in the morning, work all day in a hot, sweaty environment and then go out that night with no need for another application. No matter what time I get home my skin will still look great! I live that. I bought mine off strawberrynet.co.nz for $55 and after checking it beside my sample from farmers, it really is the exact same so no worries on fakes as some people claim. Brilliant product!

My main issue it that the bottle does not have a pump or any other control device so I often end up pouring far too much :( heartbreaking with the cost of it!

Tips: NOT for people with dry skin! And everyone else still needs to maintain a good skin care routine. Moisturise, use a primer and setting powder, make sure you wash it ALL off at night!

Also use a brush to apply; sponges just soak up the liquid and you will waste a lot, fingers don't blend as well. Invest in good tools for a great result!

It doesnt move!

Great cover and stays on. Not what I use for an everyday foundation but great for special occasions and nights out.

Fantastic

After using the same old foundation for years and it really not doing anything for me i decided to go in to a Estee Lauder counter and get myself a sample after seeing and hearing such rave reviews. After being colour matched and trialing out the sample i was in love! It covered all my imperfections and blemishes without using a concealer. And you guessed right i bought myself a bottle!!

Tips: Use a stippling brush and a little goes a long way,

If you are still undecided about buying go to your closest Estee Lauder counter and get one of the lovely girls to match you and give you a sample :)

Fresh face all day

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.

Tips: Moisturise and use primer for easier application and buff using a flat kabuki burgs or stippling brush

Lock down foundation

I took the plunge and brought it! best decision ive ever made! its the ultimate foundation and worth every scent (i paid $82). It literally doesnt budge at all. Stays perfect throughout the whole day and i dont even need to set it with a powder. The finish is flawless, and covers everything and i dont even need to build up the coverage. One layer looks perfect. Im just so happy with the product and will be forking out the $82 again without hesitation

Tips: Ive been applying it with my sigma F80 and it buffs and blends it in perfectly

Almost holy grail...

I love the coverage of this foundation, and that it dries nicely and doesn't rub off much. Still haven't found the right shade (not olive enough) even though there are lots of shades! I usually prefer foundations that are lighter in texture but this works well. Definitely expensive though, but should last a while since you don't use much to cover your face.

Tips: I think using my fingers works as well as brushes!
