Estée Lauder Double Wear Stay-in-Place // Foundation Review

Estée Lauder Double Wear Stay-in-Place // Foundation Review

You guys may have seen that I tried out the Estée Lauder Double Wear Foundation for the first time about 3 months ago. Since then I have worked with this foundation over and over trying to find the perfect ways to apply it without it being super drying. The biggest factor in not trying this foundation in the first place was the shade range. It was awful! They finally released this shade which is 1C0 Shell - very light with cool pink undertones.  This was my only option. I'm very fair (ginger fair) and although I am a redhead I prefer neutral shades. This particular shade is cool tone. Although I can "make it work" I would like it to actually be a good go-to since it's $42! The coverage is bomb, it is a tad drying (I'm combo-to-dry skin type), and it lasts pretty decently, but God forbid you accidentally rub your nose.. (watch first impressions to see that issue).. Definitely pros and cons with this one. Three months pass and here I am playing catch up on blogs I should've had up months
ago, when I realized THEY DROPPED ANOTHER SHADE! 
0N1 Alabaster - lightest with neutral undertones
Are you kidding me?! I'm sure this would be the perfect match, yet most Ulta Beauty and Sephora Stores either don't carry it "in store, only online" or they don't carry the lightest shades in store to color match.. 
Rant over, but still this is a high end foundation, high end brand in general.. They should have their shit together by now!
A hydrating primer has been key for me with my skin type. For best application keep your skin moisturized and exfoliated of course! I also only powder where I've laid down concealer and/or where I crease at, otherwise I get too dry. I also bought the Double Wear Concealer because of the awesome reviews on it.. If you're fair like me you may want to skip on it. It's good, but the lightest shade is darker than their lightest shade of foundation! I get best coverage with a brush (I like paring it up with the Morphe E6 or the XO Beauty Flat Face Brush) , but for the finish I like to dab my beauty sponge over the application before I go into concealer. 
The packaging seems really nice.. Glass bottle, gold lid, bougie, etc. until you twist the lid off to no pump. It's a pour out bottle and I honestly hate that. You can get on the Estée Lauder website and BUY a pump for $10 after you just spent $42 on their foundation... 

Overall, I like it most for the coverage. It's not my absolute favorite. I will use it and one of these days (if I don't find a better option by then) I will finish it and buy the lighter shade. The coverage does get me and I would use this 4826597364 times over the Jouer Full Coverage Foundation!


Estée Lauder Double Wear Stay-in-Place Foundation is a  7/10 for me! 

I used the shade: 1C0 Shell
Skin Tone: Fair with neutral undertones
Skintype: Combo-to-dry

You can get yours at Ulta or Sephora! $42

Tarte [Make Believe in Yourself] Mystical Dreamy Blues Tutorial

 Tarte [Make Believe in Yourself] Mystical Dreamy Blues Tutorial  I recently did a review the Tarte Make Believe in Yourself   eyeshadow palette. In that review I shared some looks that I created with it and will be sharing each of those tutorials with you. First Aid Beauty Ultra Repair Cream. I started this look by prepping my skin with First Aid Beauty Ultra Repair Cream. I used this because my skin was so dry! I followed that up with Physicians Formula Primer Argan Wear (with coconut and argan oil). I used that as my primer today.  I also used some color corrector concealer from the brand Aurora in the shade Pistachio. This is a new favorite of mine! I love how well it covers up any redness or blemishes. This was mentioned in my last Ipsy blog (I'll link below).  Physicians Formula Primer Argan Wear Aurora Pro Color Corrector (Pistachio).  EOS lip balm I moisturized my lips with some  EOS lip balm and ...

Makeup Monday // JSC Jawbreaker + Mini Breaker

Makeup Monday // JSC Jawbreaker + Mini Breaker I wasn't sure if I'd bring palettes back to my blog or not since they're discussed so much on my channel , but for sake of a pretty photo-op moment, I'm doing this. Ha!  I'm usually over the moon for every Jeffree Star Cosmetics launch and this one wasn't any different. I feel like only Jeffree could make a palette this full of insane colors and get away with it. With that being said when opening the Jawbreaker palette I can honestly say I did feel a little overwhelmed which is weird because I'm not one to shy away from color. I think it can still be challenging finding the right shades to put together to complement each other, but I can say once you dip into the shades that feeling goes away quickly. It's not as intimidating as you think it is. I created four colorful while still bring wearable looks with the Jawbreaker and had fun each day picking the palette up. I love being excited to do ...

Skincare Reviews // Coola, Vasanti, Clinique, Avatara, & I Dew Care

Skincare Reviews // Coola, Vasanti, Clinique, Avatara, & I Dew Care Coola Sport White Tea Moisturizer SPF 50   $32 I took this gem with me on vacation and it did amazing! With an SPF 50 I didn’t have to worry about getting my face burnt. Who wants dry, red, and peeling skin when you have videos to film and blogs to get done? Not me! I took my skincare very seriously and this item made it super easy! Although, this has SPF is was just a moisturizer. It also felt just like a moisturizer, not oily, greasy, or film-like at all! It sank right into my skin and kept me protected. I can also say this worked with my sensitive skin well and didn't break me out at all! If you're fair, burn easily, and have sensitive skin I really recommend this product. Even if you don't, I recommend this as a great SPF moisturizer that everyone could benefit from.  Vasanti Brighten Up! Enzymatic Face Rejuvenator $29 I tried this product sometime last yea...
