Estée Lauder Double Wear, what have they done to it!

I've used it for 20 odd years. It's my go to, I've tried them all and always go back to it.

They reinvented it, totally new formula they've been working on for 7 years apparently.

It's awful, really runny, less coverage, and doesn't last. My usual colour is all wrong, far to pale. The only bonus is it blends better, that's it. I use the double wear mascara and wonder brow eyeliner, they don't budge at all normally. Now I've got smudges underneath my eyes due to the hylaronic in it.

I'm so disappointed, so can someone suggest a really long wear, good coverage foundation please as I can't use this!

Not sure what shade you are, but Allbeauty still have some of the original formula in stock.

I feel the same OP, the only foundation that actually stayed put on my face and didn't make me shiny and they're ruined it 😔

There are several threads re this. You’ll see them if you scroll down past this one.

I've switched to Revlon Colourstay and prefer the shade and finish. Took me a while to make it work,I mix a bit of No7 Lift and Luminate serum and apply with a BK Beauty brush.
