Best all day and night foundation

I absolutely adore this foundation, it provides a really lovely finish on my skin, and lasts all day and night. I have sensitive skin and have never had any problems and it doesn't cause any break outs on my skin.

Tips: For day wear apply 1 thin layer, for night wear apply an additional layer for that night look.

Really is one of a kind...

I've recently started using this foundation again after a hiatus of a few years and I'm really glad I did!

I have dry skin, so I generally prefer a more hydrating foundation with a dewy-er finish, however my workplace is HOT and I needed something that would survive the heat this summer, so I went back to Doublewear. For a more natural look, but still with great coverage I find 1 layer enough, but is easy to build up for full coverage.

This foundation is very matte, and it lasts forever! I just finished a 9 hour shift and it still looks great, doesn't crack around my nose like most foundations do.

Packaging is a nice glass bottle, however it does not come with a pump (can purchase separately for $15) which is kinda annoying since the price has gone up to $72 as well.

Tips: For dryer skin, I prefer application with a beauty blender after using a nice rich moisturiser.

Great Wedding Foundation

I purchased this for my recent wedding after recommendations from friends and after reading reviews on here.

The foundation comes in a glass rectangular bottle which unfortunately does not have a pump. I have been told that you can pay extra for a pump but due to the large cost already I decided not to go with it.

My skin is combination with a mix of oily and dry patches. I used a sponge to apply this and found it was a nice Matt finish. I applied a layer to my skin with the sponge and found that one layer was enough and that I didn’t have to build it up at all. The make up lasted all throughout the day and did not rub off onto my dress or fade away during the day. I did not have to top up my foundation during the day and found that my skin was nice and flawless in the photos. My skin was not shiny or uneven.

I would definitely recommend this to anyone wanting a long lasting and full coverage from there foundation.

Tips: This is an amazing wedding foundation. With a flawless and smooth finish.

Estee Lauder Double Wear Foundation

Very thick long last coverage. Great for hiding pimples, blemishes and scars. I absolutely loved it but it is on the pricey side.

Tips: Moisturize well beforehand as i found it dried my skin out. Make sure you wash it off well after using as I've heard others say it can cause breakouts- personally never happened to me.

Beautiful matte look

After trying multiple brands I have found my holy grail. I have acne scarred skin so I require a matte full coverage foundation. Unfortunately for me I do not like the cake look so a lot of foundations I tried in the past made me look like a porcelain doll with cracks. Then I discovered this foundation. Medium - full coverage which is light and silky. It moves with my skin and doesnt give the cakey look. Once dried putting powder over top is just a breeze and the foundation does what it says - lasts all day!

Tips: Use a beauty blender for perfect coverage

All Day Coverage

I love this foundation! It applies beautifully and is the only one I have ever used that lasts all day without budging. No need to reapply half way through the day. No need for setting powder or spray with this one too.

Covers my imperfections and evens skin tone so that my skin looks smooth and even. And I never have any problem with controlling shine as I do with other brands.

Other great feature is you can build the foundation to get greater coverage if needed.

Tips: It does sort of set shortly after applying so don't work it in to the skin for too long or it can cause a little streaking.

Foundation that lasts

I have been using this foundation for a few years now and I can not find anything better, I love this foundation. This is one of the only foundations I have found that does exactly what it says. It has amazing coverage, covering all my imperfections. Applies beautifully and lasts the day, no need to reapply at any point of the day or night.

A small amount goes a long way and covers the whole face

Tips: If you are looking for full coverage use a beauty blender to build a flawless finish

my go-to for years

Once this stuff is on your face its not going anywhere, its got your back. You can sweat, cry, get caught in a storm, rub your face, try on 100 white turtleneck sweaters - still gonna be there.

The consistency is not too thick, fairly runny - which makes it super easy to apply, and buildable (although it is necessary to work quickly with this!). Its described as medium coverage, but for me, its quite full - I find this can erase my whole face with just one layer. amazing.

The longest I have ever worn this is about 18 hours and it was still looking pretty fab by the end of it - it's matte but not flat, and it never separated on my chin, or stuck to dry patches like other foundations normally would,

Perfect Foundation

I love the staying power and excellent coverage this product gives. The texture of the product isn't light weight but isn't too heavy either. I love the coverage I achieve.

Tips: You can purchase a screw top dispenser to replace the screw on lid which helps avoid an contamination from using your fingers.

Fav foundation

This is honestly one of the best foundations i have ever tried. i have combination skin and tend to get oily in my tzone during the day. With most foundations it shows through but with this one I never have to powder my tzone. Has medium coverage but can be built up with layering.

Tips: always use a moisterising primer
