Estée Lauder Double Wear foundation and primer review


For a good few months now, I have been wanting to try the Double wear foundation by Estée Lauder. 
After hearing so many good reviews on YouTube about how well it lasts on the skin and how flawless it makes you look, I decided to pick up a bottle.

I had gone shopping with a friend and a representive from Estée Lauder told us about an offer they were offering. If you bought 2 of their products you would get a free goody bag. 

How could I say no to that?!

I had my colour match done in the shop,(which I did have to get swapped a week later as it was too dark for me!) and as I spoke to the lady, she recommended a primer to me, as I suffer with such oily skin. So I also picked up the Matte perfecting primer, and got my free beauty case of lovely-ness!

After wearing it for a week now, it definatly stays put all day on my face, which is a huge plus for me, seeing as I can never keep anything from sliding off my face after a few hours.

Once applied, the primer takes on a chalky texture on the skin, drying up any oil, and making for a smooth and even finish.

I then go on to apply my foundation with my beauty blender, it covers all my pores on my cheeks and feels weightless and silky.

It drys instantly and doesn't feel wet or liquid on your face.

It also claims to be smudge proof, which I have yet to test. I am known for doing all my makeup nd then putting on a pale top and getting that horrid foundation mark over the collar.

I then apply my Vichy dermablend setting powder all over the top to set it in place.

The foundation was £30 and the primer was £24.50. Which may seem a bit steep for some peoples budgets but seeing as you only need a small amount of primer it will last you forever! 

Same for the foundation, as you don't need to reapply it through the day.

I would definatly buy these products again and stick them to the number #1 place in my foundation list!

It's a 10/10 from me!
