I paid about $45 dollars Canadian for this foundation and I found it to be effective. I did notice that it would attach to bits of dry skin but it wasn't that obvious. Overall, I like the matte finish and it has great coverage. It is also build able so if the first layer isn't enough you can correct spots by adding more.
I actually love the coverage of this foundation. I'm just not a huge of it feeling heavy on my skin & that it oxides on my skin making the foundation look darker later in the day.
I do love this when I want full coverage. Now I'm getting a little older and I find that I prefer to go for a more natural look and feel through the day so I prefer to use this for nights out. It does look flawless and goes on well but to me feels a little heavy.
This is a great medium to high end foundation. I've always used the Revlon ColorStay foundation for years and thought that was a good foundation too but after trying this, I think this can be considered my holy grail (HG) for a medium to full coverage foundation. First of all, I'm extremely oily with a lot of redness around my nose area and lots of acne scars on my chin so it's very difficult to find foundations that actually can cover majority of those problems. If I do find something that can do that, it tends to be very heavy and cakey feeling. This foundation however, covers all the redness and majority of the scars (of course still need to use some concealer to completely cover it all) but it is not at all heavy. It actually feels like I'm wearing nothing at all and the best part is that it does not "melt" off my face in a couple of hours because of my oily skin. It stays in place! Even after blotting my face with blotting papers the foundation does not come off that much to make me feel like I need to reapply more foundation or that my redness starts to show. This is an amazing foundation and in my opinion worth the price!
This stuff lasts! It goes on really nice and blends so you can't tell. It survives my whole day which is saying a lot! I've been using it for years and hope they never stop making it!
This foundation has a wonderful coverage and its staying power is impressive. It a bit too high covergae for my personal everyday need but I really enjoy wearing it on special occasions. Two thumbs up!
Flawless foundation that stays looking fresh and natural through heat and nonstop activity. you should use a moisturizer before wearing the foundation as it is drying.
So lets start with saying this is a high end foundation with a high end price tag. It is 50 plus tax I believe, but the reason I pay this price is because I know it works and lasts. I have combination/ oily skin so I have a hard time finding a good foundation that will hold up through my day. I have tried a lot from Too faced, Makeup forever, Smashbox to drug store which kills my face!! I refuse to buy a liquid foundation from the drug store because they either break me out or make my face burn. The other foundations I tried at sephora did not do that but half way through the day they would be all over the place, lines, creasing, constant setting. It was an annoying mess by the end of the day, but then a girl at Sephora told me about the Estee Lauder Double Wear and let me tell you it has been a life saver. No irritation, no breakouts, never oily, never dry, colour looks amazing and natural, full coverage without looking "fake", Lasts forever literally. I can put this on at 6am, wear it all day, sleep with it and still look amazing the next day. It probably is not good for your skin to sleep with it on but it really does live up to its name "Double Wear" lol. I was late to jump on this band wagon, but I am glad I did. If you are debating about trying this, goto sephora get a free sample, you wont regret it trust me! Stop wasting your money on foundations that won't even make it to lunch. I did for too long. Thanks for reading. :) One last thing, you barely need any product so the bottle lasts a long time and I am on my second bottle. This could be holy grail foundation.
I absolutely love this foundation and it is definitely my holy grail. It lasts all day, makes my skin look flawless and is a full coverage foundation. You really only need a little because it covers everything! This foundation comes in many shades. The only downside is that it is very pricey, but I will continue to repurchase.
