Can it be true? A foundation that makes you younger? Well OK, it won’t turn back the clock on your years but it will make your skin look like it has a new lease of life, and a very good one at that!
I’ve been eyeing the Estée Lauder Perfectionist Foundation for a long time now so it pleases me a hell of a lot that it’s in my hands right now (yes, right now as I’m writing this post and yes, two bottle of it!).
I’ve used this foundation for the past four days and I love it more and more every day. I can honestly say it looks so natural on my skin but just give that ‘a whole lot better look’. It creates this perfect vail of smooth, even and unblemished looking skin, which must be a result of all the age-defying perfectionist serum technology it’s been infused with!
The formula is creamy, lightweight and super hydrating and gives such a beautiful glow to the skin which luckly for me results in a beautiful dewy/satin finish which I am head over heels for at the moment. Seriously, Estée Lauder Perfectionist Foundation is spot on at delivering the dewy.
As I mention, the formula is so lightweight, it almost feels like you have nothing on your skin thus giving such a natural look. I would say it’s a medium coverage foundation and it’s been lasting for a whopping 10-12 hours on my normal/dry skin (how freaking fab is that!!)
I have this in two shade which I’ve been mixing together to create THE PERFECT match EVER (EVER). I’ve got it in 1C1 Cool Bone and also in 2C3 Fresco which as I say, I’ve been mixing together (don’t be scared to mix shades if you need to guys).
The Estée Lauder Perfectionist Foundation is available in 23 shades (with a mixture of cool, neutral and warm tones), is priced at £37 and is available from the Estée Lauder website.

I’ve been looking for a hydrating foundation for ages and so many people have said that this one is…think I’ll be spending some money on Saturday 🙂
Great in depth post. My fave foundation of all time is the estee lauder Double Wear so I’d be really interested in trying this out. It does sounds really good and so many people seem to be raving about it right now. Xx
Lovely post and so spot on. This foundation is so lovely and smoothing!
Just wanted to mention that I mix my foundations together to get the right shade too, two totally different foundations brands as well. I know some people that are worried or scared of doing it for some reason or another but I like that I can change the amounts of each throughout the year so it always matches where I have a tan or not.
Subscribed to your blog now too 🙂

I’ve asked my mum for this for my main Christmas prezy. I’ve been wanting it for a while but as I’m in school it’s a bit out of my price range. Luckily mum said she will get one! I can’t wait to try it out now x
I love the dewy look too and currently use NARS Sheer Glow but would really like to try this out. x
I am a huge fan of Estee Lauder. Their skincare lines are to die for and this foundation is one of the best in my (large) collection.
Definitely going to try it out! Looks amazing! X
I LOVE the Perfectionist foundation, I’ve been using it daily for 3 weeks now and it makes my skin look so nice while keeping it smooth, hydrated and also blemish free.
I’ve only heard great things about this foundation so I think I might have to give it a go.
Think this is going to be the next foundation I buy!
I adore Estee Lauder foundations! All of their products actually, this is such a lovely post. x
Lovely review of an amazing foundation! Good work xx
Oh My God you took the words right our of my mouth! I love using this foundation and i really like its creamy constancy, not too think but not too watery 🙂 x
I have this in Fresco too and finds it’s great for my summer tan but as I’m getting paler now I havn’t been using it as much. Love your idea of mixing it with Cool Bone to lighten it to the right shade. Think I might pick up a bottle at the weekend and do the same. x
I’m really interested in this foundation as I love their double wear one. Will see if I can have a demo in store with it 🙂 Thanks for sharing this. x
