I was in search for a new foundation and wanted to try something outside of my usual drugstore so I asked around and one of the recommended foundation was this Estee Lauder Double Wear. I went to get myself colour matched and I am in the shade 5N2 Amber Honey.
This foundation is for all skin types and claims to be; long lasting for up to 15 hours yet lightweight and smudge/transferable proof. I have combination oily skin and this foundation does not let oils seep through during the day compared to others I have tried in the past. The non transferable test was very impressive, after applying the foundation I took a paper towel and pressed against my skin, no makeup was transferred. I wore this foundation for over 15 hours and actually ended up falling asleep in it and woke up to it not being smudged and still perfectly intact as if I had just applied.
I applied this foundation with a foundation brush and then blended out with a flat top brush. I would recommend applying and blending with the flat top brush alone as this foundation does set very fast and it takes much more work to blend it out the longer you leave it.
That concludes the review for this foundation, overall I am very pleased with this foundation and would definitely recommend.
