Double Wear Mineral Rich Loose Powder Makeup SPF 12

Color intensity 2.0. I love Estee Lauder products and I was so excited to try this product. The container is quite lovely with a built in mirror that stays powder free since the powder is in a separate area. The power puff that comes with the product is so cheap that you should just throw it away. To get to the power, you need to screw off the mirror section which makes powder get all over …Read more

Fairly good powder.. It doesn't cake and is quite buildable, I can layer a fair bit and the powder remains smooth on the skin as apposed to other powders that can sometimes melt off in places, bundle up on areas of the face and look cakey.
The coverage is pretty good but I can still see discolouration/redness on my skin that I have left over from blemishes (which was why it didn't …Read more

Pro:
- good and buildable coverage
- didn't break me out like other products
- natural finish. Doesn't look cakey for me
- have SPF of 12
- mineral
- doesn't have an irritating smell
- doesn't smear off in the middle of the day. (For me it's 8 hours)
- doesn't dry up my skin

Cons:
- makes me really oily …Read more

Stays really long in my face, but it's too cakey and shiny, plus makes my face looks oily.

Fantastic coverage beyond any other loose powders I've ever tried. Had a lot of acne hyper pigmentation scars. Use this powder after I apply my Smashbox primer, green tint on scars and concealer. It really blends everything together seamlessly on my face for a perfect finish. I only have to apply one layer (a very thin layer) across entire face but if you need extra coverage, can keep adding …Read more

Shade: Intensity 1.0 (lightest shade)
Cost: $36

I really love this powder. It applies lightly with good coverage, but still looks natural and not too matte or too shimmery. My one complaint is that it is too dark for me. It is the lightest department store makeup I've found and the closest to my skin tone, so I will probably buy it again. If they make a lighter shade, I will …Read more

I love this powder! My color is Intensity 2.0. I usually just swipe this on with a fluffy brush vs. the time consuming swirling that's necessary with BE and other minerals. Sometimes I do use the enclosed puff, which delivers more coverage. What I love about the puff (besides it being cute) is that it doesn't hang onto the powder and waste product. It really does all go onto my …Read more

I bought this on a whim ("oh, gee, I just need a few more dollars for free shipping... maybe I'll try this...") and am SO glad I did! I got this in Intensity 1.0 and am very happy with the color for my skin.

I have never used the powder puff for application and probably never will. I use a kabuki and swirl it on to my face, and it's so fun to watch myself …Read more

Aways been confident buying Estee Lauder products...but this powder in #3 does not apply well, it just looks uneven and feels awful/harsh on the skin.(later to reveal red bumps) Gives poka dot looking coverage and absoluety zero staying power. Compact gives great results, but loose is a NO!

If you're looking for a powder to set makeup with extra coverage or just a powder foundation with lasting power until you take it off, pick this up and try it. It's amazing.
