Which Estee Lauder foundation are you looking at?

Oh, the Double Wear! It's absolutely amazing! It gives great coverage and it buildable without looking cakey. It's also long wearing and lightweight. I have oily skin and it doesn't break down from my skin's oils.

I use the double maximum coverage in the blue tube and that stuff is awesome - full coverage and matte which I love! I would imagine the original double wear is great too - I've heard good things.

I like it but I returned it. it's not for dry skinned ladies. It definitely enhanced my dry spots. If you're oily combo skin then this is great for you. It also last long too.

I have dry skin , I exfoliate and moisturize my skin very well before I apply this foundation and it stays all day long ,very wonderful foundation. My only thing to say I don't use any powder because appears the dry patches. ☺️

Pros: long lasting, high medium to buildable full coverage
controls oil
semi matte finish
huge colour selection

cons: no pump but mac pump will fit
can become cakey looking if using too much, a little goes a long way
clings to dry patches

I use rimmel stay matte lightly along my t zone but it doesn't need powder I just do this to lock it in as I wear glasses

It is amazing but I can't use it in winter no matter how much I exfoliate and moisturize. Stop at the counter and they will be happy to match you and send you home with a good sized sample (probably a good weeks worth). I stopped at Macys yesterday and the woman recommended the dw light when I explained my prob with it clinging to dry spots and I've had it on for 9 hrs and it still looks immaculate:)

Ok now what brand of primer would you ladies recommend with this foundation?

I use the matte primer by Estée Lauder with mine and I'm combo/oily so it just helps get the matte finish I want.

I've found it lasts better without a primer! I think I read someone it has a 'built in primer' but don't quote me on that :) love this foundation.

This foundation is holy grail foundation. everything about it is amazing. medium to full coverage foundation, even if you put on another layer it would still make you look flawless. I have oily and it lasts a long time on me. I apply it with a beauty blender. btw this foundation doesn't have a pump but you can purchase it at mac :)
