Estee Lauder cult products loved by Mumsnet users

From skincare staples to makeup must-haves, when it comes to Estée Lauder, all you need to do is take a quick glance at our style and beauty board and it will quickly become clear that there are cult favourites amongst Mumsnetters. 

The renowned beauty brand offers foundations, fragrances, moisturisers and more, most of which our Mumsnet users value for being high-quality and long-lasting. But which Estée Lauder products should you spend your hard-earned money on? Keep reading for the skincare, makeup and fragrances our MNers love and recommend themselves that'll leave you saying "Mumsnet made me buy".

Starting with arguably their most cult product, the Estée Lauder Double Wear Stay-in-Place Foundation that offers full coverage, is long-lasting and stays in place all day. 

Double Wear Stay-in-Place Foundation SPF 10

I love it. I’m 37 with an uneven complexion and it really evens it out. I put a thin layer on and it doesn’t look cakey. I reapply if I’m going out in the evening.

Or for a lighter coverage, Mumsnet users swear by the Estée Lauder Futurist Hydra Rescue Moisturising Foundation that offers flawless makeup and serious skincare combined.

Futurist Hydra Rescue Moisturising Foundation SPF 45

I'm liking Estée Lauder Futurist Hydra Rescue Moisturising Foundation, having always used Double Wear. It gives good coverage and does last, just don't get it in your eyes as it stings so much! I flit between that and Double Wear to be honest.

If you want some coverage but not as much as a foundation, then Estée Lauder’s DayWear tinted moisturiser might be just the ticket as it gives barely-there, glowing coverage that evens out the appearance of skin tone.

DayWear Multi-Protection Anti-Oxidant Sheer Tint Release Moisturiser SPF 15

Estée Lauder does a tinted moisturiser called daywear. It adapts to all skin tones.
