I'm currently wearing ELDW in 4W2 Toasty Toffee, but my HG foundation is Chanel Perfection Lumière Velvet.

I haven't worn a true foundation in awhile, but I do where Nars tinted moisturizer in Seychelles mixed with Orgasm Illuminator.

I'm rotating between MAC Pro Longwear, Laura Mercier Supreme Foundation and Covergirl Outlast 3 in 1. The Laura Mercier is a tad red for my skin tone but the Covergirl is a perfect blend very neutral.

Today I am wearing MAC tinted moisturizer under NC50 Studio Fix powder. I was in a hurry.

Ur welcome! I had a hard time trying to figure out my shade in the Queen collection so I ended up buying soft sable and tawny in the Outlast. I've purchased this foundation 3 times already. I hope you like it as much as I do!

I only have and use one foundation which is MAC Studio Fix Fluid in NW45. Although I'm quite satisfied with it, I think I'm going to explore other foundation brands once I'm finished with it.

Today I am wearing Lancôme Teint Idole Ultra in 500W (usually wear 470C but the summer has baked me to a golden brown I wish I could keep al year) set with Translucence Powder in 450Suede. I have Becca Ever Matte Primer on the t-zone and Hard Candy mattifying primer everywhere else. I am about to blot for the first time today (I have had it on for over 5 hours so far). I do not have oil pooling in places, no breaking up. I am loving this combo.

I will admit that MAC Prolongwear is my holy grail. I recently bought it in NW47 after trying NW45 and NC50. Both of those were a bit off. However, I fell in love with MUFE Ultra HD in Y535 or 178. My skin but better. Smooth, flawless application. It does not do well in heat or last as long as Mac but i love the look and feel of it! Night time glam for sure!

Yes, I also love Estee Lauder DW...My shade is Sandlewood, It really keeps the shine at bay, and ones face looks good from application till end of day!

I am back to my waning stash of ELDW in 6W1, Rich Ginger (pre-reformulation). Such a good match. WHY did you change this Estee Lauder?!?
How did the formulation change? I was just given a sample of Rich Ginger. It's decent, but a tad bit ashy on me. Bronze is too light and Rich Caramel is more red than I prefer once it settles.

Original Rich Ginger was an intensity 6 (6W1), whereas the new one is intensity 5. The original one (along with 6W2 Spice) gave more coverage as well, and it was a better shade match. The new Rich Ginger is too light / ashy, and none of the current intensity 6 shades (Sandalwood, Rich Mahogany nor Truffle) are color matches for me. All too dark. There is a huge jump between intensity 5 (too light or too red) and 6 (too dark, and every one too red on) in the Double Wear now, it seems. I was lucky enough to snag one of the pro sizes of the original Rich Ginger 6W1 on evilbay, so I am set for awhile.
