    What Is Foundation Makeup?

    Foundation serves as a base or canvas for the rest of your makeup look. When used properly, it has the added benefit of evening out skin tone and reducing the appearance of blemishes and imperfections. There are different levels of foundation coverage, so you can customize your face makeup routine.

    What are the different types of foundation makeup?

    There are several types of foundation makeup, each with its own benefits for different skin types. The different types of Estée Lauder foundation include:
    • Liquid foundations like our best-selling Double Wear Stay-in-Place Makeup. Fresh matte finish with medium-to-full buildable coverage.
    • Powder foundations like our Double Wear Matte Powder Foundation. Custom matte coverage. Reduces the look of pores and controls oil.

    How long does foundation makeup last?

    Every foundation is different—and the wear time will depend on your chosen formula. Our Double Wear Stay-in-Place Makeup, for example, provides 24-hour wear. Our lighter coverage Double Wear Sheer Long-Wear Makeup has 12-hour staying power.

    How do I choose an Estée Lauder foundation shade?

    Our Foundation Finder is a helpful tool to find your best Estée Lauder foundation shade match. Answer a few questions and get personalized recommendations for your complexion, skin type and desired level of coverage.

    What is the best Estée Lauder foundation for dry skin?

    Try a moisturising Estée Lauder liquid foundation like Futurist Hydra Rescue Makeup SPF 45. It’s flawless, natural-looking foundation with buildable medium to full coverage that hydrates skin instantly and all day.

    What is the best Estée Lauder foundation for oily skin?

    Those with oily skin types love the fresh matte finish of our Double Wear Stay-in-Place Makeup. It’s oil-free and controls oil all day while staying color true. Feels lightweight and breathable. Won’t clog pores.
