Well, this past week (Thursday- Sunday) I had yet another Honors Conference in New Jersey.

Before going however, I wanted a new foundation. I've wanted to get a quick powder foundation since its quick and easy to put on. I did some searching on MUA for reviews and was going to check out Clinique's Perfectly Real Compact, but after telling the SA what I wanted, she suggested the Double Wear Powder Foundation.

I'm glad she did! I wore it the whole conference and have yet to get any breakouts! It helped control oily skin (up until the 6-8th hour depending on how the conference rooms temp. were). Also, it did not make my skin cakey and it covered up my spots beautifully!

The color is a bit pink, but nothing too bad that I can't wear it or can easily tell that the color does not match my skin to the exact.

4 out of 5 stars.

Thanks for the review! I definitely want to try a Clinique powder foundation when my current foundation runs out.

Glad you found something you like, Nikki! I've never been able to find a good shade match with Clinique... the lighter shades like I'd need are too pink for me. So it's not just you!

Are you talking about Estee Lauder Double Wear Compact foundation?
I've never heard of Clinique Double Wear.

Oh, okay, thanks for clarifying, Erica. :)
I had never heard about that one. Sounds promising for people with oily skin.
