Estee Lauder Double Wear Foundation Review

I have really oily skin and this is one of the only foundations that will not budge for me all day. It does exactly what it says it will and comes any a bunch of shades to suit anyone.

Absolutely love this foundation. I have teo favorites and this is one of them its very hard to pick between them.

This make up is pretty heavy duty! It gives very good coverage and has a matte finish and I've always found my skin has not started to look oily during the day when I wear it. You need to be sure that you are buying the exact right shade for your skin tone because it is pretty unforgiving if you make a mistake or the colour is not quite right. It can also feel a bit tight on your skin. I would recommend it only for people who are specifically looking for strong coverage.

Right so I have religiously been using MAC studio fix for years and cannot find anything to beat this product. The only issue I was having was the lightest shade of mac was perhaps still a bit to dark for me and needed blending. Estee Lauder was recommended to me over the make up obsessives Facebook page. They all raved about it so I gave in and paid the $80 for the foundation. Which in comparison to mac is MORE expensive so I was sceptical. I actually really like the foundation I opted for the second lightest shade as its summer and I've got a bit of tan on the top half of my body...in winter I would probably need the lightest. The shade match was pretty good but still needed a bit of blending to work it into my skin. Major downside to this foundation is its lack of pump so you have to be conscious about product control. Less is definitely more, it is a similar consistency to Mac's studio fix and provides maximum coverage. You have to work a bit quicker than with the mac foundation otherwise I could tell it would go cakey and be un workable into the skin. Overall I am very happy with the foundation, It stays on all day and provides me with great coverage and flawless skin. It covers my freckles and imperfections without layers and layers of the foundation.

I have very oily and acne prone skin. This stays on all day and maintains it's matte finish well into the afternoon which is a lot longer than any other foundation I've tried. It hasn't made my acne any worse. A little goes a long way so don't let the price tag scare you away!

I love this foundation, it's my new baby!! I got matched to desert beige after the lady at the counter took one look at me, she then put some on my jawline to see if it suited and it was perfect. I got a sample of it and after trying it out for about 2 days I immediately bought it when it was on sale at Farmers (20% off) so I was super happy that I only paid about $64 for it. Desert beige matches me perfectly which I am over the moon about as I always have trouble getting the right shade (unfortunately I am not as tanned as I think I am :( ). Double wear goes on really nicely, it is not heavy like I thought it would be, it is light weight which is great as it doesn't make your face feel caked and heavy. It has great coverage which I consider to be full coverage as it is easily buildable. It has very great lasting power, at the end of the day my skin still looks pretty much flawless. The finish it offers is great, natural semi matte- doesn't make your skin look oily or too dry and it makes your skin look pretty much flawless. I would definitely repurchase though I am not too psyched about the RRP price of it... it is rather expensive but I think it is definitely worth it when you've found the perfect foundation that is just right for you!

I had heard really good things about this foundation from friends and on here but I was skeptical, and at $80-$90 a bottle I was kind of hoping the hype was exaggerated! I went to my local Farmers and did a colour match and free application as well as go a free sample to use over the next week. I fell in love instantly. The coverage is incredible and it really does stay all day! I use a primer underneath to help but really I can put this on at 6 in the morning, work all day in a hot, sweaty environment and then go out that night with no need for another application. No matter what time I get home my skin will still look great! I live that. I bought mine off strawberrynet.co.nz for $55 and after checking it beside my sample from farmers, it really is the exact same so no worries on fakes as some people claim. Brilliant product!

My main issue it that the bottle does not have a pump or any other control device so I often end up pouring far too much :( heartbreaking with the cost of it!

I received a trial version of this foundation from the pharmacy last year while they had a free colour matching promo going on. The lady matched me spot on and I went home with a 10 day sample of Desert Beige. This foundation definitely stuck to my skin like nothing before it ever has. I could fall asleep on the couch after a big night and wake up with pretty much flawless makeup the next day - amazeballs. I applied it with a flat top foundation brush and found it a but streaky, and then tried my Bionic Buffer brush and it worked fab, smooth airbrrushed skin for the whole day. A little goes a long way, and I got way more than 10 days out of my little pottle - and I like full coverage too. The only downsides are that it smells quite chemically, and the price! Holy moly the price! Its the only thing keeping me from repurchasing, but other than that I reckon this warpaint is great!

so i have very oily skin and have alot of acne scarring and i love love love this foundation it is very cream but very buildable it stays on all day

the staying power is amazing i only wear on special occasions as it is very expensive the only down fall i have on the product is the colour range is not that great i have to put a darker setting powder on top to match my skin as its slightly lighter shade if i went up a shade its totally off but overall its amazing

So got I that match up and free 10 day sample im cashew btw. I really love it , I have like different coloured skin on my nose and normaly other foundations don't do a good job on it but it does the trick and makes me feel pretty. Last pretty long , I went out for the day and had a nap and It still Looked good. Only bad part is I cant apply it properly With a brush , I end up using my fingers. Definitly gonna buy it though!
