ESTÉE LAUDER - Double Wear | Review/Before&After



Those who know me well enough will know that to me foundation is a pretty big deal, i'm ridiculously fussy! and it definitely takes a lot for me too find one i am completely 100% happy with. For the last two years i have been obsessed with Mac studio fix it ticked all the boxes for me, still does. Though recently i have been breaking out like crazy and felt the need to try something a little different to change things up a little. I always opt for a full coverage foundation to cover up any blemishes and to leave my skin with a flawless finish. Everyone seems to have raved over Estée Lauder Double Wear in the beauty world so i figured  its got to be worth trying out.
 i used  www.findation.com  to match up the shade that i normally use in Mac NW35 to the shade i needed to use from Estée Lauder I got matched to the shade 4N2 'SPICED SAND' and it was perfect! definitely recommend that website girls! 


Estée Lauder Double Wear
My Honest Thoughts..




The description says; 
"This remarkable lasting, yet light weight makeup wears comfortably for up to 15 hours, even in high humidity. Wont smudge of come off on clothes, Oil free, fragrance free, Non acnegenic. Dermatologist and Ophthalmogist tested."

This is without a doubt my new favorite foundation at the minute, i'm obsessed!!! The formula is a cream and blends out beautifully over skin covering up any redness and leaves my skin looking flawless! Surprisingly being such a high coverage product it doesn't look at all cakey which is amazing! instead it leaves skin looking smooth and healthy whilst feeling super lightweight and wearable. My skin can get pretty oily so i find it a little difficult sometimes to keep my foundation in place all day. Double Wear has to be the first foundation i have used where i don't feel that its absolutely necessary to be touching up with powder throughout the day, it tends to stay pretty matte even without powder which is a god send! I do totally agree with the claim 'stay-in-place makeup'.. i apply this in the morning and it does not budge all day.. still looks great before washing it of at night! i do wish it had come with a pump so less product gets wasted. Though i have no complaints what so ever on the product itself. If you are looking for a great full coverage foundation i definitely recommend giving this one a try!

I did not use a primer, concealer or any other product for these pictures as i wanted to show the foundations true capabilities.
