Estée Lauder double wear foundation

A while back Estée Lauder were giving away a free 10 day sample of their double wear foundation, and because at the time I was in desperate need to get one I figured might aswell try this one. 

My mum and I went to our local boots pharmacy and were told as part of the sample they had to test the right shade for you through a colour match. Now I'm not overly brown but I'm certainly not pale, that particular day however I did. So anyway the woman did the test and gave me the shade Ecru. I was very disappointed that I wasn't given a darker shade as its way too light for me. I prefer a darker colour. 

Eventually I got used to it and began to use it regularly with a warm blush so not to look too pale (I have dark hair, so i'd look too gaunt and ghostly) 

So I would recommend choosing your own colour. When I bought my foundation I really had to justify spending that much on the foundation. But it is worth the spend, it doesn't patch and cling to specific area's more than others it comes on really smoothly. I've had some really awful foundations that were too patchy and hard to evenly layer. Not only that but some of them stunk and would irritate my nose, putting me off using them. Again this is not one of those. 

The foundation lasts for a good six months so I would say go out and get some tomorrow. 

Tomorrow I'm going to be looking at batiste dry shampoo. 

Tasha.
