Warning: This post may cause some serious lemming or impulsive behaviour to buy the product featured. I am not responsible for making anyone succumb to temptations in their search to create the flawless, matte and long lasting foundations. :p I am also not affliated with the company, and bought this product with my own moolah.
A couple of days ago, I bought the Estee Lauder Stay In Place Liquid Foundation. This retails for S$53, and contains 30ml of product. Apparently there is also a 'light' version of this foundation. But I didn't know, as I am pretty new to Estee Lauder products.
From the website, here is the product description:

I shall comment on the following areas for this product:
15-hour staying power. Flawless all day.
* TRUE. Yesterday I did not remove my makeup til 9pm. Usually my face would be pretty worn off by then but yesterday I can still see the foundation on my face.
This worry-free, long-wearing makeup stays fresh and looks natural through heat, humidity, nonstop activity.
* TRUE. Because I work in a very humid/ hot and sweaty environment. I sweat buckets when I am in class. So for this foundation to last through the work day, I am truly impressed.
Won't change color, smudge or come off on clothes.
* TRUE. I have worries about this foundation oxidising, but surprisingly it didn't and the color remained the same. Except for my nose which will become oily after a couple of hours no matter what, the rest of the face LOOK THE SAME as when I put on my makeup early in the morning. So I just need to blot my T zone.
Feels lightweight and comfortable.
* TRUE. I don't feel any cakey feeling, and yet the coverage is what I need. Let's put it this way, in the following pictures, I didn't even use any concealer at all. That's how much coverage this foundation provides.
Now the flawless look you see in the morning is the look you keep all day.
* TRUE TRUE TRUE!!!
This is my face at 2pm, after I put on my makeup at 6.30am in the morning. To be honest, the texture looks better in real life. I know this is only the 2nd day of using it, but I am loving loving loving this foundation! It does deliver its claim to be long lasting!
Pictures taken at 2pm. I did my makeup at 6.30am this morning.
Updates: This is another picture taken at 5.45pm. I had gone out for an outing with my kids, where it was really hot and sweaty and I had to walk all over the place... and I had to blot my T zone twice.
Picture taken at 5.45pm. That's almost 12 hours of wear.
I might want to do a picture demo of how I use this foundation soon.. maybe over the festive weekend.... but in short, I just use my Essence of Beauty foundation brush (paddle shape brush).
Hope you find this rave helpful! Thanks for reading!
