Estee Lauder Double Wear Foundation Review

I decide to jump on the Doublewear wagon and give this a go, and for the first few times I wore it I really enjoyed it, gave great coverage it was easy to blend and buff into the skin and did last a reeeeeally long time. Then my skin started to get really irritated when I wore it, my skin started flaking and getting very itchy. I really wanted it to work for me as it isnt cheap, but again after giving my skin a few months break it had the same reaction. But, I do really love the elegance of this product and the packaging is great with the addition of a pump it would be even better.

I have tried a huge range of foundations and this is my all time favourite. I have Oily skin but I can also get dry patches of eczema. This has the best coverage and the best range of shades out of any foundation I have used. Super easy to apply giving a matte finish. I have used this product for almost a year and every time I try a different foundation, it goes to show just how good Double Wear really is. It lasts me all day AND night with the large majority of the foundation still remaining.

I brought the foundation from the Estée counter and I thought I was in love with it :( until my acne started going crazy! (Usually I don't get it really bad) but it was giving me huge swollen pimples that hurt and so I stopped it and my skin cleared up! (Had already gone through half a bottle). the application of the product wasn't very good either, if you didn't blend within 0.5 seconds you were left with orange lines as it oxidised. I used this once for a ball and the SPF turned the girl whiter than paper in every flash photo. I feel like I wasted $69 on a dissapointment.

Fabulous! I has taken me many,many years to stubble upon such a foundation that ticks all the boxes. It sticks and stays, it blends aaannnd it covers all freckles and blemishes. If only it was more affordable and less addictive!

I received a sample and I quite liked it, mainly because I have an oily skin. It lasts all day and it's truly mattifying. The only downside for me was that the shade seemed to have matched my skin tone at the beauty counter but it was actually too light. I used it anyway and just applied a darker powder over it which worked fine. You have to be quick with application because the foundation does set very quickly. I would only use this if I was going out to a party or during summer if I really feel the need to wear foundation. It is mainly suitable for the oily/combination type skins and would not recommend it for those with dry skin because it does not moisturize at all. Application is best when using a good quality moisturizer and this allows for a smoother application.

Year after year I keep coming back to this foundation. I was initially introduced to this product on my wedding day and I've never looked back! It goes on easily, gives amazing coverage and stays put all day! I can't rave enough about it!

I have the colour ivory beige for fall & she'll beige for spring. I wasn't sure if it this would suit me so I got samples first & from first use its a winner. Apply quite effortlessly and gives you enough time to work with prior to drying/setting. A little bit goes a long way. Once this sets it isn't going any where. I use primer first Benefit Porefessional then go over with this foundation using a buffing brush it glides across my face & doesn't settle into any fine lines. I find that it has a good full coverage and that laying to build coverage isn't necessarily needed if anything building up can look cakey. I follow in with a concealer then set, followed by bronzing & highlighting a small spritz of setting spray just to soften up the powdery effect & voilah the face is set for the whole day.

What I love is cooking working and moving around doesn't effect this foundation. As long as you don't cake it on youre left looking flawless for the whole day & it doesn't move you won't necessarily need any touch ups or powering till well into the late afternoon which isn't typically the usual for me with other foundations. Shine free & full coverage with no budge what more could you need?

Well, I would definitely recommend this foundation for people who desperately wants perfect coverage for acne scars and up-coming acne and with people who have oily skin. I personally felt it was to thick for my skin ( which is dry skin). I would not recommend this to dry skin people like me but would definitely recommend it to people with dry skin.

I found this to be a really good heavy coverage foundation. It caused less breakouts for me than other foundations so I don't have that problem. The staying power was really good and if I have a day where I need my makeup to stay on I'll use this. The bottle I have at the moment is too dark for me but that's my fault but I think when the summer comes again it will be the right shade. Personally I don't use this foundation everyday as it's very heavy feeling to me. It's a really good foundation for special occasions though, which is what I use it for. I'm not really crazy for the bottle or the price...but I'll live with it.
