I've used Estee Lauder Double Wear for the past few years but recently I've not found it as good as it once was and I'm now looking for an alternative!

My skin is combination, quite dry in the mornings but end up with an oily T-Zone some time early afternoon! I like good coverage because I get a bit spotty sometimesSad

Any ideas?

Probably already been mentioned but lancome Teint Idole is a good option too. Fuller coverage, pretty long- lasting and not bad oil control ( I tend to blot more rather than powder to stop it looking cakey). It's much easier to blend than Double Wear too...

I have combination skin and use Lancôme photogenic on dry days and teint idole on oilier days or if I have a night out as it photographs nicely. I wouldn't wear it every day as it's quite heavy. Forca cheaper brand I quite like Bourjois 123 perfect but the colours are not quite right for me. The formula itself is long lasting.

Always looking for something better though.

I have same skin type as yours and also used to use Estée Lauder DW. Have now started using T'Leclerc in Matt recommended by a fabulous make up artist who did my wedding make up and I'm really pleased with it and colour seems a better match too.
