Love my Estee Lauder Double Wear!

LOVE the Estee Lauder Double Wear, and their Max Coverage Double Wear too. They last forever on my oily skin. Had a horrible time with the Revlon Color Stay. It clogged my pores so badly, and it smells like paint. Felt like my skin was smothering under this stuff.

Revlon Color Stay--agree. Anything revlon makes is usually the best cheap drugstore option. Otherwise, love bobbi

I model and my makeup artists usually uses Bobbi Brown. It leaves a very natural look and feel on my skin and I use this at home too. I can't find anything better. :)
