Estee Lauder Double Wear Foundation: Wear and Share

So I've been on a hunt for a new foundation. And here's why:

1) It's summer...and I self tan.....and my face is significantly paler than my body. So I need a new color match.
2) I've noticed that my normal foundations are wearing off throughout the day. Mind you, I have a desk job. But then again, I am guilty of touching my face a lot. Bad habit, I know.
3) When my foundation wears off, I am left with a face that looks like I just saw a ghost....and a decently tan body. Not a good look.
4) I am a hoarder, and why wouldn't I need a new foundation?

Here's what I like in a foundation:  matches my body, doesn't have a smell, natural-dewy finish, STAYS IN PLACE, doesn't make me oily, and blends nicely

SOOO after doing some research, I decided to try out Estee Lauder Double Wear Foundation. My color is 3W1 Tawny, and it matches my face to my body perfectly. I figured, what better way to test the staying power of a foundation, then to wear it to a wedding?! WEDDINGS WOOOO!!! Here's how it performed:

 

Staying Power:  A+ --  This stayed on all freaking night. It did not budge at all, and when I got home, I really had to lather my face to get it off.

Application:  A-  --  It applied really easily. The consistency wasn't as think as I expected, and it blended nicely. I used my Sigma Angled Kabuki

Coverage:  A+  --  This covered beautifully. I had a monster of a zit pop up earlier in the week, and this covered it completely without the need for any concealer. It didn't look cakey, or too "makeupy", if ya know what I mean. It was really nice.

Photography:  F!!! -- Here is my one complaint. Idk what it is, because there is no SPF in this foundation, but I had white face like a b%^&$ in every picture. Literally glowed. Maybe it was my setting powder (Bare Minerals Pressed Mineral Veil - Translucent), because that has SPF...but I'm not sure. I feel like the setting powder couldn't have made that big of a difference...but I will have to do some more investigation.

Overall thoughts - I really like this foundation. I'm going to wear it to work tomorrow, and see if it stays throughout the day.
