Estée Lauder Double-wear foundation

This is one of my more recent purchases, the "Estée Lauder Double Wear Foundation" is what I would call my HOLY GRAIL full coverage foundation! It's literally outstanding.

It's for all skin types which makes it a very universal foundation and it came in a good range of colours as well, the colour for myself is "1C1 COOL BONE". It states that it lasts 15 Hours and is also lightweight and won't smudge on clothes. I completely agree with all these statements, I once wore this to work when I started at 10 am and wore till 9 pm and it still looked fresh on my face. The smudge statement I figured out straight away when applying the foundation, as I was applying it I could feel the foundation like drying (well matting) onto my face. Not like I'm going to wipe my face on my clothes to test it out but just from applying it, it feels like it's not going anywhere. I would say this is a high medium coverage which is buildable to a full coverage. I would say best application is with a foundation brush as it gives a more flawless application.

In love the bottle, it's a frosted glass bottle with a gold cap. My only con about the product is the applicator... Because it doesn't have a pump. I won't lie I'm not a huge fan of non-pumped foundation but it won't stop me from repurchasing this again. I've researched this pump situation and many people have said a standard "Mac" pump fits the bottle which I have checked and costs around £3.

The product wasn't the cheapest thing I bought but when I got it there was a 10% sale on at the time so I got this foundation for around £27 which is expensive for a foundation but the quality of it is defiantly worth it. You get 30ml for that price and some people will be like REALLY! But trust me a little goes a long way.



I hope this review helped!
