Estee Lauder Double Wear Foundation Review

This foundation is a high end product which is very popular. It has lovely mild foundation scent ,a heavy/thick texture which at first gave a great full coverage look. This foundation is long lasting and I never had a problem with smudging onto my clothing. Although I did find after a week or two of using it my skin started to dry out and the foundation would highlight the dry yucky areas. I really enjoyed it the first couple weeks but haven't used since my skin dried out so badly. :/

This foundation does what it says - it lasts on your skin all day. It is a nice foundation to apply, I use a foundation brush and find it has good coverage - it is on the denser side of liquid (I mean it isn't runny). For the great coverage and long lasting wear does come with the problem of removal at the end of the day. So you do need to invest in a cleanser that will remove all traces off your skin. There are some good ones out there and Estée Lauder do make one that works well with this foundation. Love the product and are still using even though the price tag is higher than what I would normally spend on foundation.

this is my all time fav i love the stay power the colour selections are onpoint but could have more, if i put this foundation i have no worries of it rubbing off on to my clothing im able to nap in it and it stays perfect i wouldnt recommend sleeping in it tho haha love love love

I do like this foundation; it is full coverage and it lasts all day, but I found it too heavy and cakey for my preference, and due to being so thick I found it hard to blend out. I do have dry skin which could be a factor, I just prefer dewy medium coverage foundation

I absolutely love this foundation. Out of everything I have used this is my go to, I know that it will look flawless every time whether using a beauty blender or make up brush. Love the full coverage it gives and there are two different shades (ecru and sand) that suit me perfectly which is so handy in case one shade is sold out I know that I can get the other one :)

The bottle is sleek and feels expensive. Its full coverage with a great range of colours. It definitely stays on all day and night long, which is why I personally only use this foundation for special occasions. If skin isn't prepped before hand (moisturized) it can feel a little dry on the face and cling to dry patches. Leaves the skin feeling smooth and silky.

In all honesty, I only brought this foundation due to all of the hype around it! I'm obsessed with full coverage foundations, so the idea of that combined with a formula that claimed to last like no other sold me instantly. I got shade matched to the shade 'Ecru'. I took a sample home and tried it first, and it was way too dark for me. However, I purchased it anyway as it was a close enough match for when I was fake tanned. However when I went shopping a second time for a paler shade, I learnt pretty quickly that their shade range (at least in NZ) is terrible. Even the lightest shade was too dark for me, and I'm not exactly casper white either. The shades are quite orange/pink toned which just didn't work with my naturally yellow toned skin. However, the actual foundation itself I love. They weren't messing around with the staying power of this foundation, it's serious! I have cried, fallen asleep, and been in the rain in this foundation and it just doesn't budge. The coverage is a good 9/10 and covers all my redness without issue. It doesn't feel heavy on the skin, but it can look a bit cakey if you use too much product or don't blend it properly. I use a Sigma F82 brush to blend this foundation as it's super dense and can really buff it into my skin. Overall it's a great foundation and stays true to it's claims, I just wish the shade range were better!
