Estée Lauder double wear review

Today I will be reviewing my 'Estée Lauder double wear' foundation. 

So after getting about 20 testers from selfridges and still being wary, I decided to buy the actual thing. Costing £30 it was quite pricey for a 60ml bottle, although as it is medium-full coverage, not a lot needs to be applied onto the face at a time. 

Now, my skin type is very odd and confusing. It is very acne-prone and oily, although when I apply foundation my skin becomes dry and cakey, although still oily- wierd, I know. So therefore I need a foundation that is full coverage, oil free, yet light and quite duey, as this is close to impossible to find with being through hundreds of foundations, double wear is as close to these standards as possible, if not, better. 

The foundation glides onto your skin perfectly, leaving your skin looking flawless with no imperfections visible. It is brilliant coverage also and covers up all my acne scarring and blemishes. As you can get a skin match for this foundation, I have FINALLY got one which is my exact skin tone. You do not need to apply a matte powder ontop of this foundation as it stays in place all day without getting oily, and I normally have VERY oily skin.

 

So yet again, another product if Estée Lauder that has not failed to let me down. Will DEFINETLY be purchasing this product again.

Mac bronzing powder

When someone mentions 'mac', I do not lie when I say my eyes literally light up. Their products have never ever failed to let me down and this bronzer is yet another marvelous product I have added to my makeup collection. I have been wary of purchasing this product as I have already got mac 'skin Finnish' in 'global glow' which I have been using as my bronzer. But after seeing my friends bronzer looking amazing,  she recommended mac bronzing powder which I recently bought.

The packaging
Yet another packaging by mac which looks so simple, yet gorgeous. The product comes in a small black box with the famous mac logo on the front and the name of the product. The back of the packaging includes the ingredients contained  within the product. The actual bronzer is in a small circular compact which, when opened, has a mirror on the inside above the bronzer.

The product
The actual bronzer is amazing. Much better than I expected it would be. The bronzer is very smooth, and applies to the skin very easily. I can normally not apply bronzer with cheep makeup brushes as it does not get on it easily, but this bronzer sticks to any brush straight away and glides onto my face beautifully. The product did  surprisingly not make me break out with any spots or blemishes which I was extremely happy with! The bronzer stayed on my  skin all day without getting "cakey" or "muddy". The only disadvantage with this product as it does make my skin look rather dry depending on the amount I put on, that's why small, reasonable amounts have to be used at a time.

Conclusion

Overall, I would definitely recommend this product to anyone. It is suitable for every skin type and skin tone. A perfect bronzer if you want to achieve a bronzed matte look.
