FAQs

Is this foundation suitable for sensitive skin?

Yes, the Estée Lauder Double Wear Longwear Matte Foundation is formulated to be safe for sensitive skin and is non-comedogenic, meaning it won't clog pores.

Do I need a special primer with this foundation?

While not strictly required, using a primer can enhance the foundation's performance. An oil-controlling primer is recommended for oily skin, while a hydrating primer can benefit drier skin types.

How long does the color stay true?

The foundation is designed to provide 36 hours of color-true wear, meaning it should not fade, change, or become dull throughout the day.

Can I use the old Double Wear pump with the new formula?

It is recommended to check the compatibility or purchase a new pump if needed, as formula changes may affect fit. However, the pump is sold separately and is not included with the foundation.

What is the finish of this foundation?

This foundation provides a dimensional, full-of-life matte finish that is never flat.

How does this updated formula differ from the original Double Wear?

The new formula offers enhanced skincare benefits, a more breathable and fluid texture, improved oil control and hydration balance, and a dimensional matte finish, while retaining the original's long-wear performance and true-to-skin match.

Can I wear this foundation if I have acne-prone skin?

Yes, the foundation is non-comedogenic and suitable for blemish-prone skin.

Troubleshooting

Foundation appears streaky or uneven.

Ensure skin is properly prepped and moisturized. Shake the bottle thoroughly before use. Use a clean, damp makeup sponge or a well-moistened brush for smoother blending. Apply in thin layers and build coverage gradually.

Shade does not match as expected.

As the formula has been updated, it's recommended to get re-shade matched by a professional. Lighting conditions during application can also affect perception; try applying in natural light.

Product feels too heavy or cakey.

Apply a thinner layer or focus on building coverage only in areas that need it. Ensure your skin is well-hydrated. Consider using a primer that suits your skin type to create a smoother base.

Foundation is not controlling oil effectively.

Ensure you are using the matte version. Use an oil-controlling primer before application. For continued use, the formula contains ingredients that help reduce oil production over time.

Product transfer onto clothing.

Allow the foundation to set completely after application. Using a setting powder or setting spray can further help to lock the makeup in place.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Setup:

For optimal application, start with clean, moisturized skin. Allow moisturizer to absorb fully before applying foundation.

Application:

  1. Shaking: Shake the bottle well before each use to ensure the formula is evenly mixed.
  2. Dispensing: For controlled application, a reusable pump (sold separately) is recommended. Alternatively, dispense a small amount onto the back of your hand.
  3. Blending: Apply with your preferred tool – a foundation brush, sponge, or your fingertips. Start from the center of your face and blend outwards.
  4. Building Coverage: Apply additional layers for fuller coverage where needed, blending carefully to maintain a seamless finish.

Compatibility:

  • Skin Types: Suitable for all skin types, including sensitive and blemish-prone skin.
  • Other Products: Works well with most primers and setting sprays. For best results, ensure skincare products are fully absorbed before application.

Care:

  • Storage: Store the bottle upright in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight.
  • Cleaning Tools: Regularly clean your foundation brushes or sponges with a gentle cleanser to maintain hygiene and ensure smooth application.
  • Bottle Maintenance: Keep the bottle opening clean to prevent product from drying or hardening around the cap.
