The new Double Wear Stay-in Place Foundation, available in 67 tailored shades across 10 intensities and 3 undertones, is a more dimensional matte formula with medium to full coverage that moves and breathes with skin.
It delivers a weightless, skin-like feel that unifies uneven skin tone and covers imperfections, while reducing the look of pores. More fluid, more spreadable, and more layerable to build the perfect level of coverage.
Estée Lauder Double Wear Stay-in-Place Foundation ($83/30mL) is available exclusively at Estée Lauder and Myer on February 27th, and everywhere else from March 1st.
