I am definitely a mineral makeup loyalist, but that doesn’t mean I only wear Bare Minerals! Recently, I was tempted by Estee Lauder’s Doublewear Mineral Makeup.

Here’s my two-cents:

The formula is silky smooth, and feels creamy after application which is great, especially in the winter. I apply it with a regular powder blush all over just after applying my cover up. It definitely doesn’t stay for 12 full hours if I apply with just the powder brush, so I make sure to use the applicator it comes with for added staying power. The semi-matte finish doesn’t settle into fine lines, and overall I am left with a natural, fresh looking face. I love, love, love it!

Thoughts? Are you over the mineral makeup trend, and if not, would you try Estee Lauder’s mineral makeup?
