Double Wear = LIFE

I havent purchased full bottle of this product yet (broke student) but I have definately gone through my fair share of tester pottles. I have normal to dry skin so this foundation isnt exactly meant to do what it does on my skin but as far as coverage and buildibility it is top notch. 10/10 will definately forever purchase

Estee Lauder Doublewear Foundation

When I first started using this foundation I loved it for its staying power..it REALLY stays on but after a while I started to feel that my skin just couldnt breathe during the day lol..sometimes it was a bit cakey, especially if I was dehydrated...all in all though I do use it for its staying power and great matching shade....

Tips: I always make sureI use a good serum and moisturiser beforehand, and take it off with the estee lauder cleanser that goes with it...

Estee Lauder Doublewear Foundation

I looked at the reviews on here, and thought wow that's what I am looking for.

This has a great coverage and goes on easily with a brush. Creates a great look for day and night and yes, it does last all night long. I find after a few hours my foundation usually goes a bit greasy and I get that shiny look. This foundation doesn't give me this at all and that's why I love it. Covers all my blemishes well too. I would recommend this product, give it a go you won't be disappointed.

It has upsides and downsides

I'd heard such excellent things about the Double Wear, and I was really excited to try it. I was also pretty happy about the range of colours, and that they colour matched me in the store before I bought it (can't get that with l'Oreal or other off-the-shelf brands) So I was happy with the colour, and felt that it matched really well.

The Double Wear goes on nicely, and it doesn't have that 'dry' feeling that I've had in the past with other long-wearing foundations (that slightly tight feeling that makes you want to wash it off immediately)

It's full coverage, and I found that it was mostly good at covering any acne scars I had - I only needed to use a little bit of concealer after I'd applied the Double Wear. It's definitely long lasting - and it doesn't rub off onto my clothes/phone/hands as much as other foundations I've used in the past.

What I didn't love? I found it to be dull and flat for my face. It didn't give me that slight 'glow' that I get when using something like a Visible Lift. I know the Double Wear isn't marketed as a brightening product, but I felt like it left my skin looking dull.

I didn't have any trouble with removing it at the end of the day, but I used the Estee Lauder Perfectly Clean (which I think was designed to help remove the Double Wear)

All-in-all it's a good product. It does what it says it will. For me, I think I prefer a foundation that also brightens, but that's not the fault of this product.

One of my favourites!

After reading some reviews I finally went balls deep and bought this foundation and I haven't regretted it for a second. I have combination skin and found it stayed on my t zone all day and didn't get too oily although after about the 8 hour mark I did need to touch up my powder. Id definitely recommend anyone with combo skin to get a sample and try it out. It also didn't break me out which is great! Alas it is pricey so is more of an Occassion foundation then a everyday.

The One

Double wear definitely makes it into my top 5 favourite foundations (ok I'm a foundation hoarder) it's not my number one but it's definitely worth every cent! I really found that it was severely over hyped though, it's a beautiful foundation with great coverage but you do require a good primer and great application technique to make it work perfectly on your skin. I never reach for DW when I'm in a rush! However I love the slightly matte finish it gives my skin when I get it just right. It has good staying power when powdered down, even though I am fairly oily. I also find it very reasonably priced now EL dropped the prices!

Estée Lauder Double Wear Foundation

I found this foundation very good for full coverage, I did find I had to reapply powder after around 5-6hours because it started to look a little oily, but other than that totally recommend it, I'm very active teaching dance classes and found it does stay in place through the duration of my day.

Tips: Make sure your well moisturised before you apple double wear to ensure it sits nicely without cracking and moving.

Very long lasting

This is defiantly my go to foundation. Stays well and applys well, just have trouble with getting the right colour! The one i use now only works when im tan but the hype about this foundation is defiantly true.

Tips: Get colour matched but by someone that knows what they are talking about! Even get a tester to try before hand. I have found beauty blender makes it apply the best.

Double Wear

This foundation definitely stands up to what it claims to do. Its full coverage and i would say a demi matte finish. Id definitely buy it again

Tips: Apply with a damp beauty blender.. also DEFINITELY use a primer.. and not a matte primer.. use a hydrating primer.
