Double Wear Stay-in-Place Matte Setting Powder Veil

So there is no finishing a bomb make up application without a powder to set the look. All powders are not made equally, so finding the ideal powder can be tricky. My ideal powder will stay on for hours without creasing and absorb oil. Estee Lauder makes some phenomenal products so I was excited to try the Double Wear Pressed Setting Powder at no cost to me for my honest opinion on the product. Now my skin tends to get a bit oily so I was curious to see if this powder could keep my makeup in tact throughout the day. I was very pleasantly surprised at how well my makeup still looked after a busy day. I did reapply in the middle of the day for a touch up but that was all. My make up stayed put and I still had a fresh looking application in the evening. I would definitely recommend trying this product.

This is by far the best powder I've used. It covers any imperfections and texture I might have, leaving my face looking like I have a IRL filter! I use the puff the powder comes with to press the powder onto my face which leaves it with a natural matte finish. It feels weightless on my skin and is great at reducing shine. I reapply after a couple of hours because my face is naturally very oily, but the powder makes it a quick and easy process. I love it!

Estée Lauder Double Wear Matte Powder Veil shade: translucent medium offers a lightweight subtle matte finish without looking or feeling like you are wearing makeup. this powder is definitely for me!! i am not a huge foundation wearer other than powder. well, let me say... i wear this and love the results, i'm normally not a fan or should i say, my skin is not a fan of the way most foundations make my skin feel & look. this powder goes on so light but gives great color and coverage. the translucent double wear matte powder veil effortlessly covers & blends uneven skin tone & imperfections with a blurring tinted color that also controls shine. i found that i didn't need to do any touchups during the day. my skin did not become oily and the matte finish stayed looking light and shine free. the compact comes with a mirror inside along with a powder puff applicator. this is the perfect matte veil powder to add to your makeup arsenal or toss in your purse so you always have it on hand. it will definitely become a favorite!!! i received this product for free from estee lauder for testing and review purposes.

This powder glides on like an absolute dream. It is very very fine, silky and pressed. Doesn't settle into or emphasize lines just gives a matte perfection. No real smell, did not clog my pores or irritate my skin. Lasted all day even running around outside! Gives a beautiful glow and is a great tone match!

I liked how effectively it took away shine throughout the day without making my makeup look heavy or cakey. It gives a clean, blurred finish that really does help lock everything in place. However, the shade I received was a bit too yellow for my skin tone, which made it a little difficult to wear regularly. A light medium might have worked better. I worked around it by using a lighter & cooler toned foundation. I found the formula a bit drying when I applied it with the included puff, especially over areas where I have some texture. Using a brush gave me a lighter, more comfortable application while still providing the same great shine control. Overall, it’s a great option for a lightweight matte finish that controls shine well, just have to make sure to get the correct shade and prep the skin with moisture if you have dry skin.

I wasn’t wowed by this product. This powder does mattify and reduce shine. I tried this over tinted sunblock and it looks cakey and makes my skin look more mature. It did look better when I wore the powder on its own and not layered over another product. I applied the product with a complexion buffing brush. I think you can find a comparable product to this at the drugstore and can’t justify the price of this. I received this product for free from Estee Lauder for testing and review purposes.
