    I am SO impressed with this foundation!
    It covers very well and leaves a wonderful skin like finish. I find that I do not have to set this with a poder which saves even more money!


    Also, Sears Canada has a promotion on till the 29th (or while supplies last!). I bought my double wear today in a kit with a brush, night repair serum and primer for an extra $11. I also received a clutch with a full sized moisturizer, lip stick, and mascara, perfume, cleanser and a 2nd serum. Total cost was $60.46.
    (The foundation alone would have been $42.50 tax!) DEAL!!!

    Holy coverage!! I used this on my mom, who has pigmentation and her skin is flawless. It holds up all night and doesn`t budge. Its a tad pricey but for a ``going out`foundation, definitely worth it.

    This foundation settled in my fine lines and pores. I wanted this foundation to work so bad but just didn't do it for me. I prefer the Kat Von d foundation for full coverage.

    My skin is super oily on the tzone and oily everywhere else. I LOOOOVE this foundation, it has a great coverage, quite natural finish/looking, long lasting. It covers my minor imperfection with one coat and it cover ANY kind of blemish in two coats. It looks super natural, as long as you apply it well. Don't pack this foundie on your brush, rather work slowly with thin coat on the brush and work on one area at a time. Because my skin is super oily, it gets too oily after about 5 hours, BUT THE COLOR STAYS PUT. I have worn this foundation for 12 hours and although my face was shiny, this foundation was still looking great and not patchy.

    I'm an NC42 in MAC pro long wear foundie, and 3W2 CASWEW is my perfect match. It matches my skin in daylight and in any other lights.

    Anyone with normal-oily skin would probably love this foundation! :D

    Now about the price, seriously people you're gonna use this up for at least two years, so if you count the cost-per-use, it's actually very affordable.

    The packaging is quite annoying though, however I have this little spatulla I got from an eyecream I bought years ago, and I used the spatulla to get a lil bit of the foundie. Also, I always blend the foundation on a little plate before applying it on my face using a flat foundation brush. Some people might think I'm crazy or unpractical, but thats the only way I can do my foundation, and maybe that's why I love using flat foundation brush, because I think I use it the *right* way rather than packing on too much foundation on the brush and the application becomes streaky and hideous.

    ANYWAY I totally love this foundation and I recommend it to everyone with normal-oily skin! :D

    For people who dont have oily skin this would be PERFECT

    I wanted a product similar to Revlon Color Stay - something that lasts all day, doesnt leave me shiny by the end of the day makes your skin look great. However I was also looking for something that wasn't too thick or heavy (sometimes with color stay I feel like i am wearing a mask). I tried this product because the girl said that everyone loves it and brides use it for lasting makeup.

    I love it's look and feel on my skin and it covers perfectly. Looks perfect when you first put it on (not mask like at all!). However, i do feel oily/shiny at the end of the day. Color Stay is still the best prouct for lasting power.
    For this price, it's not worth it for me as it doesn't give me my ideal end result.

    Great foundation for full coverage. No need to re-apply. It is expensive but well worth it. Lots of shades to use and combine

    I was watching YouTube and saw a friend of mine had tried the Estee Lauder Double Wear foundation. She said she really liked it and it looked like it gave great overage. I decided to try it. I went to my local Sears, and saw a sign on the counter that stated they would give me a 10 day sample of the foundation! I asked about it and they DID give it to me! It turns out any store that sells Estee Lauder does have this option to try the foundation before you buy. I was matched to the color Pure Beige and went home with my 10 day sample.

    This foundation lasts all day! I didn`t have to do a touch up once. I was amazed after 8 hours, I still had it on! The ONLY thing I was not thrilled about was that it did come off on my shirt collar, which it isn`t suppose to do. It gave me a full coverage and I wasn`t even in need of a concealer. I used my fingers and a brush to blend it out. LOVE IT. It lasts for HOURS!!

    First off, before I approached this foundation I was having a bad reaction and was breaking out a lot. I have dry skin and formed tiny zits around my cheeks and forehead. I tried various foundations to try to cover up, but no foundation I had in my collection had enough coverage. I went on Youtube and saw many girls raving over this high coverage foundation and decided to get matched at sephora and try it out. It comes in a glass veil with no pump, so you're forced to pour it out on to your hand.. which is very convenient.. however the quality and the coverage of this foundation is amazing! It feels extremely light and when it completely dries it feels like your own skin.. AND it lasts all day, this is now my go to foundation. I will definitely repurchase. I paid 44 dollars at sephora and found that it was reasonable for an awesome foundation!
