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

Amethyst | Gemstone Series

 Amethyst | Gemstone Series  Today is Amethyst. I have to say I started this look a little late in the day and was rushing the beautiful golden hour to get this makeup on and get decent pictures before the sunset.  *If this is the first gemstone look you have seen the others will be linked below, but the idea is creating looks based on gemstones every week and the challenge (not really) using the ColourPop So Jaded palette to create the eye look.  ✖️Brows: Anastasia Beverly Hills Dipbrow Gel (Blonde) ✖️Eyes: Mac Cosmetics Paint Pot (Painterly) ColourPop So Jaded Palette (Ametrine, Flourite, & Amethyst) Tarte Cosmetics Big Ego Mascara I started the look with the Ametrine shade right above my crease and blended it out with a blending brush. Then I took the Flourite shade on my inner corner and brow bone as my highlight.  Then, of course, the Amethyst shade in the palette. I patted it on the lid space with my finger before blending it in my actual ...

Doucce Freematic Eyeshadow Pro Palette (Nude) Review

Doucce Freematic Eyeshadow Pro Palette (Nude) Review You may have seen that I received this Doucce palette in my FabFitFun Winter Box . I have actually tried one of their single pans of eyeshadow from a subscription in the past and I did like it and thought it was super pigmented! First of all, I love how compact and cool this freematic palette is. There is small magnets on the back of each shade and the inside of the actual palette is a magnetic board like a Z-Palette. Then I want to mention how I do really like the color layout of this. It is a pretty neutral layout and has shades that everyone has, but the undertone of these are just so different to me. In a good way for sure! They do have other palette options on their website, along with a "build your own palette" option. I will eventually review the highlight (also a bonus!) that came with this, but I want to talk mainly about the 8 eyeshadows. They're just like the single one I received and is very pigm...
