Love this foundation! I love that not only can I rely on it to go the distance, stand up to humidity and exercise, but it also can be made more sheer or a fuller coverage depending on how it s applied. I’ve used this for many years and it’s always my number one go to.

My Ride or Die
Tips: I like to apply it with a damp sponge, set lightly with loose powder, then a wee spritz of rose water to bring back the slight ‘glow’.

Go to full coverage
This is one of my holy grail foundations! If you are looking for a full coverage foundation then this is the one to get. I have quite oily/combination skin so find some foundations slick off but I manage to get full days wear out of this and it's a matte finish so no crazy shinyness either
Tips: Make sure to cleanse well, oil based cleanser works the best to get it off

Double Wear
Fantastic for oily skin, do not use for dry skin. My skin was so oily even in this you would see the oil come through after a few hours, this was the only foundation I could use and it made my skin look flawless!! never got caught in my pores and covered all my acne. However, as iv'e aged my skin has got less oily and now it catches a lot making my skin look wrinkly and caked. THIS IS A VERY FULL COVERAGE AND MATTE!!! and needs to be washed off fully before going to sleep. It is hard to take off but the bonus is that once it's on it doesn't budge
Tips: would recommend buffing on with a stipling brush over a beauty blender. wouldn't recommend cream contours and blushes over this definitely only powders!

Good foundation
I have oily acne scarred skin, and I had heard so much about this foundation and how amazing it was. It gives great coverage but for me it just isn’t enough. I can still see my pigmentation and scars underneath and I applied quite a heavy double layer. Would be great for someone with clear skin

Best full coverage!
Provides a great full coverage foundation, great for oily skin or t zone. Lasts me from the morning to evening with only a slight tinge of my redness coming through on my cheeks. Can make dry skin look a little textured
Tips: Apply with a sponge for a more sheer look

Best coverage you could ask for
Been using this foundation for countless years. I still have this in my make up collection constantly. I usually only use it these days if it’s a hot day (knowing I may sweat) or if I know I need my make up to last the entire day and into the night
Tips: It can be hard to work with as once it’s on it’s on there is no movement !

My night out go to foundation
I love this foundation! It's my go to on a night out because it has staying power like no other, great coverage and the colour doesn't alter, I like to call this product photoshop in a bottle.

Great full coverage foundation
I used the Double Wear foundation for years in my early twenties. I loved the full coverage and that a little went a long way. Now in my early thirties I have recently repurchased this foundation aftera few years trying other products. Unfortunately my ‘normal’ skin is now on the drier side and I have fine lines around my eyes and forehead. I found that the foundation is now too matte for my skin type and exaggerated the dry spots and lines. I hope Estée Lauder releases a similar product more suitable for dryer skin tones. In saying that, I still recommend to my normal-oily skinned friends!
Tips: Mixing a couple of drops of Urban Decay facial oil to this foundation enabled it to sit more nicely on my skin but it did reduce the coverage.

Perhaps my primer was wrong, I’ve been using the Mecca primer. This just went a little patchy on my skin - perhaps I’m too oily.
