Foundation Friday Over 50 | Estee Lauder Double Wear Stay In Place Makeup!

Hard to believe that in 6 years of testing foundations I never tried Estee Lauder Double Wear Stay In Place Makeup! Double Wear is a perennial fave of all ages in the beauty community, so why I thought it would be heavy, cakey & drying, I don’t know (but I did and that’s why I stayed away from it even though Estee Lauder Double Wear Light has been a fave for years).

Today I’m finally putting Double Wear to the test to see how it performs on my mature, less-than-perfect skin. . . and I couldn’t have been more surprised by the results!

Hey Angie! 29yo (gonna be 30 this year) fan from Canada, love your content! You’re probably the only person I have found that has shown to never get flashback. Have you worn it more since?

Thank you so much! I have been hoping you would review Double Wear and compare it to the Chanel (which I now love and use exclusively, paired with the same grippy sunscreens you have recommended). I love your thorough reviews for our mature skin. I will buy the double wear using your link. You are lovelier and more exquisite the more you age. Thanks a million.

Hi Angie,

I have been a faithful watcher of your tutorials for over 3 years now and as others have noted, I too have learned so much from you. I am 65 with good healthy skin, thank you mom 🙂 But as we all know time marches on and usually across our face! I am an avid user of your daily skin care routine products and I have really seen a luminosity in my skin that was not there before, thank you very much. I just purchased on QVC, the Nuface trinity you always rave about. The purchase came with the large stimulator, a year’s worth of gel, plus the 2 prong piece for your eyebrow area and, I had the choice to spread out the cost over 6 months (zero interest), making it more doable for those of us on a fixed income. I just wanted to share that in case some of your readers want to purchase. I am excited to try it. I just retired so I now actually have some time to focus on myself. I love how you share your trial and errors with us, not just with products but with lifestyle behaviors as well. I am a nurse researcher and am always interested in the “evidence-based” science, so I do appreciate your attention to ingredients and the science behind each. Keep the good info coming. I look forward to each Friday to see what new-news you have to share. Thanks so much! Jana in Nashville

Hi Angie,

I think you look so good with that foundation. I am starting to be a big fan of Charlotte Tillbury. Have you tried her foundation? I’d love to see a review if you can fit it in.
Absolutely love her shade “pillow talk” lipstick.

  Hi Andrea~ I’ve tried CT Magic foundation but didn’t like it. I haven’t tried any others since though. Here’s the post where I tried it: https://www.hotandflashy.com/new-makeup-try-on-haul-magic-foundation-pore-vanisher/

Hi Angie,

I still cannot believe you’re not in your forties! I am closing in on 40 and watch you because you just seem honest, real and I can learn everyday looks from you. I had a couple questions and also ideas for things to test if you don’t have a long enough list already!

I’m looking to purchase eye shadow brushes as mine are okay but having trouble following your tutorials without a more tapered brush as you use. I don’t want to over buy but see you use different combinations. Which of these would you suggest as must haves and not duplicates:
MAC221, Morphe M167, 514, 441, Sigma E36, 47, 56, Beauty Junkies blender, IT Cos. 112, 105?

Also wondering if you’ve ever done a review on Dermalogica’s Hydrablur primer and/or pre cleanse oil or balm? I would love an eyeshadow tutorial on Dior’s 5 palette you use often, your eyes always look beautiful in those videos when you’re wearing it.

I have been following your suggestions for make up products and been happy so far. I also love your eye shadow tutorials for every day looks and have learnt so much already! Thanks for all you do and share, there is no one else like you on youtube!

Connie.

  I second Connie’s request for a tutorial on the Dior 5 color palette! It looks so good on you – I was looking through the blog for one and could not find one.

  Hi Connie~ I’d love to be in my 40s again and always wonder how I’m on the far side of 55? But appreciate your compliment!! I’d say the must have brushes are the Mac 221, Sigma E47 and 36, IT 112 & 105, & BJ blender… sadly, the Morphe brushes don’t last through a washing so I won’t be recommending them any more. xo ~angie

Hi Angie! I’m so glad you finally reviewed Estée Lauder Double Wear foundation. I always wondered why it was never part of Foundation Friday. I’ve tried every foundation under the sun and it’s in my top three. I do like Armani’s foundation and Chanel’s Vitalumiere Aqua. The latter are my special occasion foundations. Double Wear is great for long days as it really does wear beautifully. And it has my perfect color match! I haven’t found anything as true to my skin tone. My true everyday is IT Cosmetics CC cream. So easy and every time I catch sight of my skin in a mirror I’m surprised at how nice my 67 year old skin looks. I really appreciate your reviews and often refer to them when purchasing. It saves me time and money. Hugs from a very appreciative fan!
