    Thanks for the great video…
    One question, which would you recommend for a more oily skin: the Estee Lauder Double Wear Stay in Place or the Double Wear Maximum cover?

    I absolutely love the look you’re going for, great for those daytime occasions.
    Thanks for the beautiful blog you guys have.

    • Jules

      Both would work; it’s more a matter of coverage. Double Wear Maximum Cover is pretty full-on, whereas the regular Double Wear has medium, buildable coverage. Double Wear Light is also great – also medium coverage with similar staying power but a lighter texture.

      • Niecole Smit

        Thanks so much for the response!
        I’ve used the Double Wear Maximum Cover before and boy oh boy that baby stays all day! Great for events.
        I’ve seen you guys talk a lot about the Double Wear Light and I’m very keen on trying it out soon.

  • Liezel

    This Estee lauder foundation is definitely my holy grail foundation. I alternate between double wear and double wear light and they are both amazing. I especially like that they last allllllll day and don’t transfer.

  • Carmen

    I am also using DW light but I am finding it just looks so made up.

    I see you don’t apply a powder, what about your blush and highlighter? Don’t these stick more to your foundation without it?

    • Camilla (author)

      Hi Carmen. You can try mixing a bit of moisturiser into DWL to sheer it out a bit.
      I have dry skin, so I rarely use powder. DW has more of a matte finish, so you shouldn’t have an issue with tackiness (ie you shouldn’t experience any problems with blush/highlight application).

  • Caryn

    Thanks for the post! I am interested in trying out the DWLight as I am not fond of heavy foundation. What treatment product do you recommend I can purchase in order to qualify for the gift? I have an oily and blemish prone skin. I have never used any EL products before so wouldn’t know where to begin?
