This foundation is amazing! You only need a tiny bit and it covers evenly with my real techniques brush (or my fingers if I'm rushing!). It gets rid of my redness and creates a perfect matte finish. Lasts perfectly all day with no touch ups. Only negative is that it doesn't really hide pimples (you need to slather on concealer for that). Totally worth the price and lasts ages!!

Double wear does some things amazingly. It's got a great colour selection, the longevity is amazing, coverage is buildable but pretty full from one coat and its easy to apply. However! If you have dry skin, this will make it soooo much worse. I have dry skin and first tried applying it with a brush. I found that it clung to all my dry patches and coloured them pretty orange. It also makes my peach fuzz stand out from a mile away! Applying it with a wet beauty blender made it a bit better but its still not something i would reccomend if you have dry or combo/dry skin.
I love this foundation ALOT! It is great full coverage and long lasting. The downside to it was it made me breakout, however that is with everyday use so now its my going out foundation. Super hard to get off completly and is very sticky so takes quite a few washes and LOTS of coconut oil, otherwise i think its FAB :)
Tips: Coconut oil was the best at completly removing this make up
I purchased this foundation after numerous ravings on makeup obsessives. I LOVE it!!! It's very expensive about $80 so I save it for special occasions most of the time. It matches my skin tone, stays flawless without touch ups til night time!!! I love the full coverage it gives me as I have a few imperfections :) I love it so much that I've convinced a few friends to purchase it too :)
Tips: You don't need a lot! A little goes a long way.
I like the formula as I love to hide my freckles and it give good coverage I've tried two shades (one at department store) and it was very yellow which I wasn't a fan of and still trying to figure out what my proper shade is sadly, super long lasting which I love as well!!
The staying power of this foundation is immaculate! However I have a few criticisms... If you want a fuller coverage you will need a couple of applications around redness and blemishes, and it can stick to peach fuzz quite a bit. Other than that it's amazing for oilier skin, would not recommend for dry skin though.
I recently was given some Doublewear as a gift, I'd been meaning to buy some for ages but was hesitant to spend so much money on a little bottle of foundation. The bottle itself is really cute and classy, not as handy as a pump bottle but the formula is thin enough that it's easy to get out, even if there's only a little bit left. I've found it quite difficult to find a foundation that gives me a good amount of coverage without drying out my T-zone, even with moisturizer. Luckily this didn't seem to be a problem with Doublewear, I applied it over a primer and it evened out my complexion without looking cakey, and with no hint of dryness/settling into pores. It does tend to stick to 'peach fuzz' a little bit so you need to apply it carefully, but it's definitely my favourite foundation so far. You also don't need to use a lot of product to get a good result, so even though it's more expensive than drugstore foundation it lasts a long while. I will probably buy the full-coverage Doublewear when my current bottle runs out, as I tend to only use it on nights out or special events when I want my skin to perfect.
Tips: Use a primer! Estee Lauder makes lovely primers to go with this foundation, and they last a long time.
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
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...
My life was completely changed for the better the day I found this foundation.
This foundation is the best I have personally found and I wear it nearly every day (i'm addicted!). It has excellent coverage and stays in place for 8 hours plus... what more can a girl ask for! I use a foundation brush when applying this foundation and have found that I do not need much on my brush in order to cover a large area. The range of colour matches in this brand of foundation is great and means that so many girls can try this out! I have found that I need to apply a moisturizer and primer prior to applying this foundation so it doesn't dry out over the day, however this is a minor for how fantastic the foundation itself is! Go trial it now!
Tips: start small with the amount of foundation you apply, you can always add more and build coverage
