The new flawless. The new full-of-life matte. This buildable, breathable long-wear foundation is made for more, with even more to love. 36-hour color-true wear. Balances skin with oil control and hydration. Even more tailored shades—one made for you.
And with this upgrade, also comes a new, sleek glass bottle. A more minimalist, chic, and multidimensional design inspired by the new Double Wear Stay-in Place makeup’s more dimensional, never-flat matte finish.
Here are more things we love about the new Double Wear Stay-in Place Makeup:
More buildable and breathable
The new Double Wear Stay-in Place 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 skintone and covers imperfections, while reducing the look of pores. More fluid, more spreadable, and more layerable to build the perfect level of coverage.
More longwearing
Double Wear Stay-in-Place is now even more long-lasting with 36-hour color-true long-wear. It’s powered by NEW Polymer Mesh Matrix Technology, a breathable polymer system that acts like an invisible net, allowing the formula to move and breathe with skin. The result is ultra-comfortable, transfer-proof and water-proof color coverage that’s also sweat, heat and humidity-resistant.
Each drop encapsulates 20 trillion color-treated micro-pigments that are fully oxidized and stabilized to deliver uniform, skin-true coverage that does not shift or change throughout the day.
More skin-balancing
The new Double Wear immediately balances skin with oil control and hydration. It gives skin 36-hour oil control1 plus 72-hour moisture maintenance2. Skin’s oil production is reduced in just 4 weeks.
Estée Lauder’s Double Balancing Complex featuring AlgaNiacin™ balances skin with oil control and hydration, while reducing skin’s oil production on bare skin over time.
Three key elements include:
- Glycerin and Hyaluronic Acid: This blend delivers immediate moisture and helps maintain moisture levels over time.
- Niacinamide: Helps reduce sebum production over time.
- Brown Algae Extract: Helps reduce oil production over time.
