Double Wear - Sheer Matte Long-Wear Foundation SPF 20

Lovely Foundation

I almost didn't buy this because of the negative reviews. However, for me, this is a lovely foundation. My to go colour is always Fresco, so the colour was right. In my experience of years of buying different foundations, if you don't get the colour right, the foundation, no matter how expensive, will never be right.The coverage, for a sheer foundation, is good. It covers my redness, but still looks very natural. I finish it off with a light dusting of Double Wear powder foundation on my T zone. I used to wear just the powder foundation on its own, but found it began to look a bit dull and flat. This liquid foundation seems to brighten my complexion and give it a healthy glow.For the record, I am 67 and obviously have mature skin that tends to be dry.

Best applied with a blender

I love this foundation, it's light but still reasonable coverage and evens out my redness. For me on my mature-ish skin, it doesn't apply well with a brush, it's much better patted on with a blender.

so disappointed

Was really looking forward to trying this, I've been wearing the Double Wear Stay in Place Foundation for years, and wanted to try something else. but was so disappointed ?? this is like water. even putting it on doesn't do anything, no coverage at all. Waste of money. wish I read the reviews first.

Unbelievable

I bought this foundation because I wanted a change from Mac products but wish I just bought what I know. Just started using it and it does nothing to my face,. It's like I don't have make up at all.

Terrible

Bought from a department store that I don't live near. Opened it and it leaked down the bottle. Gave it a really good shake as it says but it just runs everywhere like water.

Everyday Wear

This foundation is very light. But I find it ideal for everyday general use. It's light so only gives a hint of colour, but sufficient for me. I don't like heavy foundation that I find can cake into lines. I use it on top of futurist aqua brilliance primer.

Why oh why....

Why oh why change something that didn't need fixing. Double Wear Light was an excellent product that covered without being cakey, lasted all day, and had amazing reviews. I have no idea where the 5 star reviews are coming from for this product, unless you already have almost perfect skin. Forget it if you have combination or oily. This product slides off, doesn't last all day and finds every wrinkle. To get the same coverage as I used to with the DWL I need to use twice as much. Very, very disappointed and if you look on independent review sites you'll see there is a much different take than here.

Disappointed

I really wanted to like this foundation i tried it serveral times to see if i could make it work it slides off my face separates after only few hours I've tried with and without powder and setting spray to see if it made any difference but doesn't last. My skin looks so oily after few hours of wear. Please bring back double wear light.

Each time you improve it gets worse

Double wear light used to be fabulous about 6 years ago! I would get compliments on my skin. It's the foundation I would say. Then the formula changed it was still good but not as good. Now the equivalent colour is yellow and it's water, it's so awful I won't buy it again you've probably lost a customer as I'll know the at another make. It covers NO faults. I'm so disappointed. I'm saving my.last half of the old foundation for special occasions. Why why why did you change it it was amazing.

Double wear sheer disappointing

Really disappointed with this foundation. Have used double wear for years and previously used double wear light which was great. Sadly this foundation is not for me. Trying to apply with brush or sponge you end up wasting so much product as it just sinks into the brush or sponge it's so watery. Applied with fingers and a light tapping motion, doesn't last at all on the skin and I don't have oily skin. Transfers off face too. For the price I wish I'd just got my normal double wear foundation now. The colours good I purchase in tawny, however the product itself is very poor.

ELSKER den her!!

Tror jeg har prøvd cirka alle foundations, og dette har blitt en favoritt som jeg ikke bytter ut! Vil ikke kalle den matt, mer nøytral - så med dewy eller oljete produkter under vil den bli naturlig glowy og fin. Det jeg elsker med den er at den er sykt tynn, man merker ikke at den er på huden og det ser ut som om man har flawless skin. Gir den medium dekk. På meg sitter den godt på hele dagen uten primer. Har tørr hud, men bruker oljete skincare. Den fremhever ikke porer eller linjer, og dekker min rødhet! Caker naturligvis ikke, og skiller seg heller ikke. Den er helt BOMB! Jeg er målløs :) Men den er for clean girls, som liker naturlig sminke med lett dekk. Hvis du liker full coverage er ikke denne for deg!

Disappointed

First time ever using this brand and was recommended double wear. I wanted a lighter version but now I wish I got the original one. It's like a watery liquid that doesn't sink in to my skin and doesn't last too long. I'm so disappointed Emma
