LAURA GELLER Baked Double Take Powder Foundation, Matte Finish - Light

This LAURA GELLER NEW YORK Baked Double Take Powder Foundation is my favorite powder foundation right now. It is light and easy to apply, but also provides pretty good coverage. It evens out my skin tone well without looking like I'm wearing too much makeup. It is just a natural finish that dulls shine and provides a good base for my powder blush and highlighter. It doesn't settle into lines or look cakey, and it wears well through the day. I love it!

Covers my rosacea well without looking overly made up. Stays in place most of the day. Great variety of shades at reasonable price to allow for temporary skin changes due to suntan.

I usually can’t use any powder formulation (setting powder or foundations) on my face due to texture (sun damage) and late 40s skin. I have extremely reactive skin and nowadays can only use a few different liquid foundations that don’t irritate it, but they are all matte finish which I don’t like anymore because they settle into texture and make it look worse. So I figured I’d try this just to see since it was on sale. I am very pleasantly surprised. It lasted all day, and it did not settle into my texture anywhere near as much as the liquid foundations do. It also provided nice coverage and evened out my skin tone (I have a lot of redness and brown spots). My skin is also very dry, which is another reason I can’t use powders usually. But this one just goes on nicely. I like that it feels much lighter on the face than a liquid foundation too. I did use a kabuki brush because it made it go on smoother than the sponge that comes with it.

I really wanted to like this powder foundation, but initially had some issues. I’ve worked with it for about a week and a half now and I found that applying it with a brush on DRY skin works best for me. If my skin is even slightly damp or the primer/lotion I am using is still damp on my face I had all the problems other people mention- poor application, blotchy application, streaky application, etc. I wouldn’t even dream of using this powder wet! 🫣 So, first I recommend applying it on dry skin with a brush. The powder is light and you can easily build the coverage to your liking. Having said that, here are a few words about its promise not to settle in fine lines… it DOES settle into fine lines, however I wear light coverage and it isn’t a huge issue for me. Those women who prefer full coverage may find this a problem. Overall, I like the product, but there is a bit of a learning curve and I probably wouldn’t pay full price to purchase it again…

I purchased this after buying the balance powder to use with it. This product gives you a better foundation coverage without adding too much orange, so it's good to use as base if you are trying to cover something. The light color of this product is much lighter than the light in the balance product so this one works well for me in winter months but is too light for me in summer. The opposite is true from the balance product that looks too dark/orange if I use it in winter (unless using very lightly). In summer though the balance product blends perfectly with my skin and doesn't look overly orange, so preferred product depends on season. I like the lack of scent in this and how great it is for adding some light coverage versus a heavy liquid foundation.

I love this foundation so much. It covers great and not cakey. It makes me look flawless. And it stays on all day.

it didn’t match my skin tone. That’s the problem with buying online instead of in person and not being able to match my skin tone. I have a drawer full. I like the product. I’m older and it doesn’t cake up or feel thick on my skin.

This is my new forever makeup. I had been doing the same foundation/powder combination for the last 6 years. I always want a heavy coverage that will not melt off in the heat or rain. However that all ways came with a cost.. a “ time coat.” My makeup routine use to be so long ( we’re talking like 45 mins just for the base/coverage). Idk what is in this baked formulation, but omg I’m obsessed. Not only is it so easy to apply, and easily shaves a good 20 minutes off my routine, it is DURABLE. 3 talking it feels light but stays on allll day w very minimal change. Like it’s stuck in place, which I love!!

I never thought I'd switch to a new foundation after 20 plus years of wearing the same one. But, WOW! This Laura Geller full coverage foundation is absolutely fabulous!! It is full coverage. It is very light and I can't feel it on my face. It's perfect! I will always purchase this one from now on. I am fair skinned and was naturally blonde (now more white than blonde, with ageing!) I purchased "fair" and it's perfect. What a fabulous find. Thank you to Laura Geller.

A great product coverage good and doesn’t make your skin dry

Sono più di 10 anni che lo uso ed è fantastico Non appesantisce e rispetta la pelle. Peccato che in Italia non si trovi

Finally found a good powder foundation. Goes on smoothly. Stays for 8 plus hrs once you set with a setting spray. Sensitive skin approved. Mature oily skin approved. I am 50 plus with a very oily skin and it works amazingly. APPROVED👍👍⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

A stand out foundation. Use it every day.
