Estée Lauder Double Wear Stay-in-Place Long Wear Matte Foundation SPF10

Estée Lauder Double Wear Stay-in-Place Long Wear Matte Foundation SPF10 in shade 4W3 Henna is a long-wearing liquid foundation designed to keep skin looking fresh and balanced from morning to night. The lightweight, breathable formula offers medium to full coverage with a natural matte finish that helps to unify uneven tone and soften the look of pores, while still feeling comfortable on the skin. With SPF10, it adds a touch of everyday sun protection, making it a practical choice for daily wear.

Suitable for all skin types, including sensitive and blemish‑prone skin, this foundation is oil‑free and non‑comedogenic, so it’s designed not to clog pores. The 4W3 Henna shade suits medium to deep complexions with warm undertones, making it ideal for those who prefer a matte yet dimensional finish that doesn’t appear flat. Apply after skincare and primer, then blend from the centre of the face outwards for an even result. The buildable texture means it can be sheered out for daytime or layered where extra coverage is desired.

How to use
How to Use:
Apply to clean, well‑moisturised skin. Shake the bottle, then dispense a small, fingertip‑sized amount of foundation. Dot onto areas that need coverage, such as the cheeks, forehead and chin. Blend outwards with fingertips, a sponge or a foundation brush. Repeat in thin layers where extra coverage is desired, allowing each layer to settle before adding more.

Frequency:
Use as needed, according to the product instructions and your make‑up routine.

Application Technique:
Work from the centre of the face outwards, blending carefully along the jawline and hairline for a seamless finish. Use a damp sponge for a softer look or a brush for more coverage. Set with powder if you prefer a longer‑lasting matte effect.

Best Practices:
Apply after your usual skincare and any primer. Start with a small amount and build gradually to avoid a heavy finish. Allow skincare to absorb fully before application.

Safety Tips:
For external use only. Avoid direct contact with the eyes. If irritation occurs, discontinue use and consult a professional. Keep out of reach of children and follow any additional guidance on the packaging.
