Estee Lauder Double Wear Review: A Softer Matte That Still Lasts
Editor's pick
By Estee Lauder
Yes, the new Double Wear is lighter and easier to blend than the original, and published wear tests say it still survives a long, messy day. It is no longer a flat, one-coat mask, so people who loved that will need two thin layers. At about $52 to $54 it remains the benchmark for oily and combination skin.

Maybelline Fit Me Matte + Poreless Foundation Review: Best Drugstore Pick for Oily Skin?
By Maybelline
For normal to oily skin this is still one of the best foundations under $12: medium, buildable coverage, an oil-free formula that is non-comedogenic and fragrance-free, and 40 shades. It wears well for a workday rather than the 12 hours claimed, can oxidize slightly darker, and looks patchy on dry or flaky skin. Go one shade lighter if you are between two.

NARS Radiant Creamy Concealer Review: Does It Crease Under Eyes?
By NARS
A luminous, easy-to-blend concealer in 30 shades that suits normal and oily skin well. It can settle into fine lines and look cakey on dry under-eyes, so dry skin should prep carefully or choose a thinner formula.

Haus Labs Triclone Skin Tech Foundation Review: Arnica or Marketing?
By Haus Labs by Lady Gaga
A comfortable, luminous medium coverage foundation with a wide 51-shade range that disguises redness well while worn. The fermented arnica skincare claim is not independently proven, so buy it for the base and not for any change in your skin.

Rare Beauty Liquid Touch Foundation Review: Dry Skin Verdict
By Rare Beauty
A comfortable, buildable medium-coverage foundation with a very good 48-shade range. The formula opens with light solvents and silicones rather than water or glycerin, so dry or flaky skin gets mixed results unless you prep well. Wear is fair, not long-lasting, and it will not cover scarring or deep discolouration.

IT Cosmetics CC+ Cream SPF 50+ Review: Can One Tube Replace Three Steps?
By IT Cosmetics
A good one-step base for redness-prone and mature skin that wants light-to-medium coverage with some skincare benefit. It will not replace a real sunscreen layer, 'full coverage' is generous, and the citrus essential oils are a mark against it for sensitive or sun-spotted skin. Buy it as a tinted base, not as your only protection.
