Has Estée Lauder Double Wear Met It's Match?! The New Foundation Release That's EVEN BETTER!

I've been testing out a brand new liquid foundation for the last couple of weeks, and one of things I couldn't stop thinking about was closely it resembled Estée Lauder's Doube Wear to me. So with that in mind, I decided to do a side by side, all day wear test. You will find the results in this video.
I hope find it helpful, and please give it a thumbs up if you do!

To be honest, the Estée Lauder looked so much better on your face. The smash box looked shiny/oily at all the check ins. The color of the smash box seemed a little yellow to me but that’s just color.

Estée Lauder now owns Smashbox. I am curious if there was some formula secrets passed off between the two companies? I mean we will never know, but "Double Wear" has been the gold standard for 30 years.

[@missjoasia123]

I’m sure there was then or atleast help from their expert chemists and stuff. Because EL to be honest is just not beatable. I leave it to dry down on my pallets sometimes and it will not come off with anything but soaking it with makeup remover

[@avablue6062]

Maybe Estes Lauder learned from its mistake with the launch and fail of the new & “ improved “ Lancôme version. Don’t fix anything that isn’t broken just release a new launch. I’ve used Lancôme and double wear for a long time and had to switch to double wear because none of the new Lancôme shades me and they always look a little off I miss the original. I will try this one . Maybe it’s the companies version of new and improved? 🤷‍♀️ you will also see similarities with a lot of Lancôme and L’Oréal products. In my opinion Infallible is L’Oréal’s version of the original Teint Idole and now that the original is gone Infallible has better shade match for me as well as double wear. I’ll give this smash box one a try. I don’t like change much though when it comes to foundation. I flirt with others but always would end up returning to Teint Idole 2nd place Double wear 3 rd place L’Oréal infallible and always would keep the infallible around in different shades for summer winter and so I’d always have something. However 80% of the time I’d only wear Lancôme Teint Idole. I’d always buy new foundations for fun and to try but always went back . Now that it’s gone it’s double wear and infallible ( for fuller coverage) and maybe this new smash box . We will see will be fun to try and hopefully something makes me feel like my Lancôme Teint Idole did 😿

I use a damp sponge and work in small sections, pressing the foundation really well into my skin. And then I use a light misting of a hydrating setting spray, and let it sit while I finish working on my eyes.

Thank you for demonstrating both of these products that can be used successfully for mature oily facial skin. I’m 72 and my skin is still oily and most foundations are absorbed within an hour. (Fortunately, now that menopause has happened I no longer have breakouts due to the excess oil though).

I have large pores so I have to be extra cautious about keeping my fingers off my face. 😊

I believe the Smashbox brand is owned by the Estee Lauder Company, so that might be a contributory factor as to why the Smashbox foundation feels similar to Double Wear, so maybe there are some overlaps in the formula and ingredients 💖 I don't know if brands owned by the same corporation do share some core / base formulas, but it's a thought 🤔✨️

The new DoubleWear is still good, but in making it more friendly to all skin types, they reduced its bulletproof longevity. I'll have to try the SmashBox!

[@rosanabb7484]

I love Tati and was considering getting de Smashbox foundation but now Risa completely convinced me because I’m 46 and super oily like her. Thanks!! ❤❤

[@ebonywilkes3589]

I’m 51 an I still use double wear granted I am oiler than most but if applied correctly I feel anyone can wear it and get the coverage and staying power they need. I also have fallen in love with the Valentino foundation, I use the new beauty blender setting spray and wow does my makeup last an look flawless. I’ve tried a lot of foundations thru the years and it’s hard for me to find one that will stay on my skin. When I bought the House labs I had heard such good things but it failed me within a couple of hours. I’m definitely gonna grab the Smashbox , excited in fact to use it. Thanks for the review

[@AliasBurn]

I got this foundation about a week ago and this rocks!! I too have super oily skin and I don't want to reach for my other foundations like at all now....

[@ejbooks]

Great video comparing these two foundations. Appreciate all the time and effort you put into it. I will definitely give Smashbox a try, once I use up my current foundations. 💕

[@katrinamorley5672]

Keep it in the family as they say!! 😂 Smashbox, acquired by Esteé Lauder, in 2010. I absolutely love your channel. I've only just found you. I'm a huge lover of Esteé Lauder, as I worked for the company for several years & also Jo Malone, which I adore. I also worked briefly, for Dior & also Lancome. I sadly no longer work in beauty. Due to disabilities & chronic illnesses. But, I'm so enjoying watching you & thoroughly enjoying your videos. So thank you so much, for taking the time to share your videos with us. Sending a big hug from the UK. xx 💐❤

Best foundation I've tried in YEARS is the Laura Mercier Real Flawless, it is BEAUTIFUL!

I used to buy max factor at Walmart in the 90s. I used to LOVE their foundation. Then Walmart quit carrying it. I was so sad.. glad to know about smashbox. I will definitely dive into their makeup products

[@diaorl7763]

Ohh dear me too, I use to buy the max factor stick foundation, was perfect, flawless velvety texture just beautiful on the skin, sadly was discontinued 😢

[@terilynnelincoln3247]

I so miss Max Factor.

[@debnmom]

I can't believe it! I never thought I'd see the day! I don't know if the HA or skincare in the Smashbox will really make that much of a difference. I do my skin care and apply my HA prior to applying my foundation. I think I'll stick with my Double Wear for now. Thanks for the video Risa! I hope things cool off soon in Vegas!!

[@monicaleanos5874]

Thank you so much Risa! I just bought the Catrice foundation based on your recommendation and haven't tried it yet. However, I have the good old faithful Estee Lauder in my cart. I realized I liked it better after trying the Makeup Forever HD one. I was going back and forth between Estee and the new Lancome foundation. After watching Tati and now you definitely going for this one! I remember when Smash Box was all the rage! It's still a viable brand.

Oh wow now I am going to have to try it! Nothing has ever come close to double wear. I will say I can never find a double wear exact shade match so maybe that will be another Smashbox benefit!

[@leeannlowery5064]

Definitely will be trying the Smashbox foundation! Thank you for taking so much time and energy to ensure you gave us a fair recommendation!

[@claralizmoreira2112]

I love estee lauder double wear, but the brazilian foundation from Kohll beauty it's INSANE!!! You can go to the gym, beach, pool or whatever and it'll stay. It works with any tipe of skin, but it's tricky to apply since it's not a match to every preparation you put before. The developer teaches how to used it and for me it's the one and only that I can truly trust on in any occasion

[@Willowy13]

ELDW is my holy grail, including because it's the one foundation were I have not only one but 2 shades (4W2 and 4w4). No need to mix. It applies like a dream, mix with my skin in a way it seems like I am not wearing foundation, it stays truly a whole day. Even my blush stays. Smashbox was always the closest thing to EL, but I didn't have a shade with them and the same holds true to this one. I couldn't find anything even mixing as weird as it is.

[@YT-bv7ke]

Omg thank you so much for this review! I’m a long time wearer of Double Wear. I’ve tried a lot of foundations, but nothing has Double Wear beat so I always end up returning other foundations. It’s my holy grail. Long wearing. Doesn’t budge and super comfortable all day long. Also wanted to mention that I have normal to dry 44 yo skin, and I agree….its about the prep with DW. I make sure to moisturize well, and I also use Isntree Hyaluronic Acid Watery Sun Gel under it, and it is absolutely the best sunscreen to bring the glow back to matte foundations. Highly recommend this Korean sunscreen. Gives glass skin look and pairs beautifully with those matte foundations. I’m definitely running out to try the Smashbox one asap! I hope I love it 🤗

Thanks Risa for sharing this comparison. I am a Estee Double Wear fan for many many years and love how well it holds out. I will try the Smashbox one. Take care.

[@CareyXO]

The Smashbox and the new Mac face pen foundations have both dethroned Double Wear. They look beautiful on my mature combination skin. Neither one of them gets the hype they deserve in my opinion. Meanwhile I’m over here disliking the Hourglass skin tint everyone loves. That stuff does not dry down.

[@misfit7866]

I want to try this Foundation because just like you said I love the double where I have extra dry skin but it doesn't dry me out completely it actually keeps my skin looking after I'm not like a mask so since this one has like moisturizing agents and I'm extra happy

[@jann3443]

Really happy to see this review. Tati had one a few days ago as well and she loved the Always On foundation too. (And you just mentioned her video 😊). That was going to be my question. I have normal skin with a couple of dry patches on my cheeks. It seems that Always On will work for me while Double Wear would be too drying at my age now. I used it years ago when I was much younger.

[@traceymancino169]

The formula of Double Wear is much different than the one you used previously. It was reformulated about 5-6 years ago if memory serves me correct.

[@kathiebranton7528]

I use a drop of EL Advance Night Repair with my DW foundation and it works great to counteract any drying effect. However, I don't feel it dries down like I like using the serum with it. I think I possibly use too much serum and that could be the reason. But Smashbox with skincare looks like a great idea. Thanks again for the review. You always give the best testing and (show and tell) videos.

[@missjoasia123]

Use a different serum. Their serum isn’t that great unfortunately, I use DW with other serums and it always looks better. The Lancôme Advanced Génifique Radiance Boosting Face Serum is amazing and it dries down with DW

[@kathiebranton7528]

@@missjoasia123 Thank you for the tip.

[@reneeburich9497]

Normal to dry skin here, but I use it all the time. Sometimes, I mix it with the Lauder Futurist foundation. And, you really don’t need even a full pump!

[@patticarnevale2360]

Great video. I don't usually use a medium to full coverage foundation, but I will try this for times I need it. I also have had problems with Estee Lauder products due to the fact I have very sensitive skin. This is not the fault of the brand, my skin is very reactive to a lot of products. I have never had an issue with Smashbox products, so fingers crossed this works!
