Foundation for oily skin: Estee Lauder Double Wear

Ok, so I'm going to level with you guys. I have the oiliest skin ever, I have never seen anyone who suffers with it the way that I do and I have adult acne to boot :( to be honest its sucks.

So you can imagine how hard it is for me to find a foundation that not only gives full coverage that will hide my current breakouts and scars but also stays on my face for more than an hour or two. I have tried so many I had almost given up!

Luckily after watching copious amount of YouTube videos on the subject, I decided to try Estee Lauder's Double Wear foundation. And it's changed my whole makeup game.


I honestly does what it says on the tin, my skin feels matte (which is a novelty to me), it stays in place for hours and it's very high coverage which means I don't have to apply layers upon layers like I usually have to do.

There are some draw backs to this foundation though. Namely the price; it's £31.00 which is a little steep when most of makeup comes from the high street but I'm glad I didn't let that put me off as it really is worth the money.

The other downside is the packaging, it's an open top bottle which means that I always feel like I'm pouring out too much which is obviously not cost effective. I think this foundation would be greatly improved with a pump or in similar packaging to the Estee Lauder Double Wear Light.

Other than those two points I can wholeheartedly say that this foundation is the holy grail for anyone who suffers from oily skin.

Big Love

P.s. What everyone's favourite eyeshadow primers? My eyelids are also very oily (sigh) so I need one that counteracts this. Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated
