The previous Double Wear formula was too drying for my skin, emphasized my pores, and was difficult to remove. I prefer this new version because it feels slightly more hydrating, but I still find it quite cakey on my skin. Double Wear Light cream foundation was the absolute best foundation I've used. It blurred my pores, felt hydrating, wore beautifully, and gave my skin a flattering finish without emphasizing fine lines. I've been searching for something comparable since it was discontinued, and nothing has come close. I'm giving this formula three stars because it's an improvement for my skin, but it still falls well short of Double Wear Light. Please bring back that wonderful foundation!

As someone who doesn't wear much makeup, I loved how easy this foundation was to apply and blend. The shade was a beautiful match for my skin tone, and the lightweight formula felt comfortable all day. Even though it's matte, it gives my skin a natural, dewy look without feeling heavy or cakey. The buildable coverage makes it perfect for both everyday wear and a more polished look! I received this product for free from Estee Lauder for testing and review purposes.

Why would you reformulate double wear for a completely different skin type? I have combination oily skin and this is the worst coverage ever. There are other foundations that have been reformulated and they are at least somewhat matte. This foundation is not even close to the original. Also my sensitive skin burns every time I apply this new formula. I'm so disappointed and won't be buying anything Estée Lauder again.

I absolutely love this makeup! Not only does it have full coverage but it feels like you have none on at all! It's lightweight, breathable and overall the perfect makeup for any occasion!

The new formula is terrible!!!! Even using Double Wear for years! The new formula is sticky, don't cover like it use to and color is off! Please bring back the old formula! I am going to start using another brand!

I absolutely love the Estée Lauder Double Wear Stay-in-Place Foundation! It gives beautiful, buildable medium-to-full coverage while still looking natural and smooth on the skin. The matte finish looks polished without feeling heavy, and it stays in place for hours without much touch-up.

The formula for Estée Lauder foundation is horrible. It's so runny and liquify. It feels sticky and gummy on my skin. The color is off also. I loved it until they changed formula. Never buying again

I have used Estee Lauder Original double wear for so many years and sadly the new formula is a complete disappointment. It is more like a tinted serum rather than a full coverage foundation. This might be great for some but for me the original full coverage is much better and all I can do is hope they realize there is a market for both. I know quite a few people on the hunt for something comparable to the original formula and most makeup consultants I have spoke with said they have lots of clients doing the same.

What did you do to my foundation??? I've been using this foundation for decades and loved it…then I received this new bottle. First of all it STINKS! It smells like curry and bad decisions. Secondly it's is thin and doesn't offer the smooth full coverage that the original formula gave me. Third, the color is off, there is a strange yellow hue, maybe you guys actually used curry or turmeric?! Fourth it is sticky, like gross sticky which causes any blush or powder products to cake on top of it. Frankly this formula makes me feel that Estée Lauder is in financial trouble, because this is the type of quality reduction that seems to happen when private equity buys a good company and runs it straight off a cliff. I'm so upset. Please change it back! If not you have lost another long standing customer, and I'll be sure to tell anyone who will listen that this company has fallen victim to the enshitification that has run rampant through nearly every major company.

I have been using it for many years, but I recently purchased the new formula. My face feels like something was stuck to it—it's very sticky, and it even caused an allergic reaction. I definitely won't be using it again. Why did you change the formula?
