Estee Lauder Double Wear Foundation 2N1 DESERT BEIGE

Product Information

What we say Full-coverage foundation has never been more comfortable. Estée Lauder Double Wear smoothes over your skin like a gentle lotion, blending and blurring every imperfection to flawless status for 24hrs - and available in an impressive 57 shades, no wonder it’s the no. one foundation in the UK.

Double Wear foundation's mattifying, oil-control formula promises even skin that always looks fresh, never shiny. It stays in place all day, and resists heat, humidity, and exertion. To complete our Estée Lauder Double Wear shades course, we need to focus on the meaning of the last digit! Once you determine which is your first number and letter, it’s the last digit that leads you to your shade. The last digit reflects the depth of the color and varies just as the first digit does, from lighter to darker as the numbers go up. This character in particular varies only between 0 and 4, but not all combinations of first number + second letter have options of the last digit from 0 to 4. Let’s see an example! The combo 3W only comes in 3W1, 3W1.5, and 3W2, missing the combinations of 3W0, 3W3, and 3W4 (maybe for the future, who knows!).

Which one of the below sounds most like you? Waterproof and transfer-resistant, this oil-free, matte formula evens out skin tone and blurs imperfections, and covers imperfections with buildable coverage. However, I recommend going for the medium coverage because it tends to look cakey and streaky when used heavily.

It’s incredible to have a foundation range with so many shade options (57 and counting!). Yet, that can be a curse when it comes time to choose your shade. Now that you know everything about the shade codes, it should be easier once you eliminate the ones that are obviously not a fit. We’re dividing our advice depending on your shopping option; we have tips for buying in-store, and different tips for those giving a shot to intuitive online shade matching (this should be a trademark concept!). If you’re buying on-line… Review: Lancome Teint Idole vs. Estee Lauder Double Wear vs. YSL All Hours: Which Foundation is Best for You? Disclaimer: Of course not all shades have an exact match.

Estee Lauder DW makeup foundation color numbers are distinguished by the method of "number + letter + number", such as 1c1, 2n1, 3w1. Estee Lauder and MAC are two of the best foundation brands available. Estee Lauder Double Wear is my current daily choice of foundation, while MAC offers a huge range of foundations for different skin types and situations.

However, this Esteé Lauder sheer foundation is different, because being part of the double wear family of course meant that naturally it was light as a feather but still provided very good medium coverage and it did give that ‘your skin but better finish’ as promised, and bonus, no ashy/chalky finish in sight.

The letter in the middle represents the tone. Undertone is the way your bare skin looks and behaves. The second character is a letter and a very important one to note, as it indicates the undertone. You may get the shade’s intensity level right, but if you don’t match the undertone, it will be for nothing! The first number indicates that the shade of liquid foundation is different, also known as color level; This foundation ensures perfect skin and a fresh complexion all day long, thanks to its stay-in-place SPF 10 formula.

When choosing a foundation with this undertone, you’re getting a shade that’s more on the pink side, if your natural skin tone is light to medium. For deep skin tones, a cool undertone can show hues of pink, red, or blue.
