Estée Lauder - Double Wear Stay-In-Place Makeup - 1N2 Ecru - 30ml

I've never been a full-coverage foundation kind of girl. My skin is generally pretty good, so I don't really need full coverage 99% of the time, and I hate how obvious (imo most) foundations look. I used to use the double wear light and liked it, though I found it to be ever so slightly too high coverage for me. If you're looking for good coverage, move along, you won't like this! Don't expect this to cover up blemishes, dark circles, etc. - you'll need a concealer for that. But, the overall tone correction is great. It is definitely noticeably less coverage than the double wear light, which I like! You can either apply a modest layer for very light coverage, or build it up to something resembling the double wear light. If you apply a normal amount/don't go in with ... MoreI've never been a full-coverage foundation kind of girl.

It is definitely noticeably less coverage than the double wear light, which I like! You can either apply a modest layer for very light coverage, or build it up to something resembling the double wear light. If you apply a normal amount/don't go in with layers, it does look quite natural on the skin/is the most natural looking foundation I've seen so far. It's also the first foundation I've tried that genuinely hasn't felt like I had anything on! I love that it has more skincare-oriented ingredients, and adds another layer of sun protection! If you have dry patches, it will cling to them a bit, but it's not super noticeable. I found this wore just as well as the double wear light - my forehead does look quite shiny at the end of the day, but that's just how my forehead is. It applies and blends really nicely with my sephora #56 brush. I roughly apply and spread it with my fingers first (to minimize product soaking into the brush) and then buff it in with the brush. Without a setting powder it will crease, but I found creasing to be extremely minimal with the kosas cloud set powder! It's definitely not mattifying enough imo for my forehead, but for the fine lines around your eyes and mouth, it's a perfect combination. Overall I really like this. I'm glad there are options out there for people who like sheer coverage! Don't hate on this product if you like good coverage - not everyone does! We light-coverage ladies need an option too :)
