Charlote Tilbury Magic Vs Estée Lauder Double Wear
Hi There,
Hope you are enjoying the bank holiday weekend! Ours has been full of drinking and DIY (not at the same time of course) 🙊
I wanted to do a comparison post on two long lasting foundations, Estée Lauder is my Fave foundation but I have been on the lookout for a new one.
I put the Charlotte Tilbury on the right side of my face and the Estée Lauder on the left side. As you will see from the below pictures that they practically look the same!! I cannot believe that I was able to go out all day with two different foundations on my face!
Double wear shade - Ivory beige 3N1
Charlotte Tilbury - Shade 7
Right Side using Charlotte Tilbury's Magic:
Left Side using Estée Lauder Double wear:
Why do we pull such beautiful faces when applying make up 😂
When they were both on they both felt exactly the same on each side, I ran my hand down my face and they both felt matte and smooth.
My main concern was how long each would last and which one would oxides more. The Lady at CT did warn me that it does oxidise and to be careful not to pick a shade that was too dark.
The Estée Lauder website says the below:
"long-wearing makeup stays fresh and looks natural through heat, humidity, nonstop activity. Won't change colour, smudge or come off on clothes. Feels lightweight and comfortable. Now the flawless look you see in the morning is the look you keep all day."

Charlotte Tilbury on the left Vs no make up, you can see how it has really smoothed out my skin tone to give a flawless complexion (Well as flawless as can be achieved on my skin)
Exactly the same make up on top either side but I would say that the Estée Lauder on the left side makes my make up 'pop' slightly more. My highlighter is more visible.
Estée Lauder Double Wear - 7.15pm
You can see that there is still a slight shimmer on my cheek, has this foundation managed to keep my highlighter in place for the whole day?!
The double wear is also not as patchy.

- Both glided on the same
- I used the same brush with both
- I was able to add bronzer and blusher without a streaking effect that can sometimes occur when building up on products

Face On - Can you tell that I am wearing two different foundations?
My hair done and the rest of my make-up applied on top:
Exactly the same make up on top either side but I would say that the Estée Lauder on the left side makes my make up 'pop' slightly more. My highlighter is more visible.
So in order to really get a good idea of how well they both lasted I took a picture again at 7.15pm
Charlotte Tilbury Magic - 7.15pm
This was the Charlotte Tilbury side after a day visiting friends, you can see that it's lasted well whilst the other make up has worn away. It is slightly patchy in places but not enough to notice. It is slightly darker than when we started so you can see that it has oxidised slightly.

My gosh I have never taken so many selfies!
So my final thoughts on the two foundations after comparing them is that they both apply very well using my trusty buffing brush .
They both make my complexion look the same and they both wear well. On comparison of the two, the reason that I would consider buying the Charlotte Tilbury would be for the goodness which is marketed in this product. I would like to hear a bit more research about how good it actually is for the skin.
I do feel that the double wear lasted slightly better but also made my other make up stay in place too.
What are your thoughts on both of the foundations? which one do you think looks better?
