Will the pump on my old bottle fit the new bottle?
- Asked by Jacolackalyn
- Official Answer By Estee Lauder USHi, thanks for your question. While the original Este Lauder Double Wear pump will fit the newly designed bottle, it won’t reach all the way to the bottom of the bottle.

Used the OG formula for Years
I've used the old original formula for years and this was my fav/never fail foundation. I was sad for the reformulation. I Ordered the new formula and am currently split on con's and pros.

Too fast drying for combo skin
I have combination skin and on me the formula applied unevenly from the start. As I was blending it began to look patchy and textured like almost like it was gripping certain areas and then not blending smoothly across other areas of my face. I've seen many people describe this as medium tofull cove...

Please bring back the old formula
Verified Reviewer

Nothing like the old formula. Hard to blend, sticky, oxidizes to a different color, looks fake and plastic-key. I'm also not sure the sunscreen works as I felt my face burning today in the sun. I used to get so many compliments when I wore the old formula. Everyone is mentioning oily skin, but I have normal to dry skin and the old formula worked great for me.

I have loved and worn Double wear for over 15 years, It was my Holy grail. 3N1 was my perfect match. I tend to lean on the oily side and live in a high humidity area. The old formula was perfect for this, I rarely had to blot even in summer and it never creased. This "new" formula has me shining within 30 minutes of applying and creases severly, and oxidized badly. I wanted to love it so bad. But please bring back the old formula and give us a choice between the 2
Hate new formula
Verified Reviewer
Reviewed at

I work outside all day doing HVAC work, so I sweat a lot. I could reliably count on the old formula to last during my 12 hour shifts. I tried the new formula yesterday it flaked off within just a few hours. I felt humiliated talking to customers with blotchy makeup. After my shift, my friends and I immediately went to the mall to find ourselves a new brand. It's disheartening to have to search for a new foundation after having worn the PERFECT original formula foundation for the past 12 years. I can't believe how they could ruin such a perfect product and cheapen it to drugstore quality. Super thin, strange orange color, no coverage, non-lasting. So upsetting to all us loyal customers. Please keep original formula!
You just killed your best-selling product

I've been wearing Estée Lauder foundation for decades. No more. The new Double Wear must be more profitable for a floundering company, because literally nothing about it is good. Let's start with the color match: I compared Tawny in both formulas and the new formula is darker. And thinner. And more difficult to blend.If anything, it is also less natural-looking and durable.
NEW FORMULA IS HORRENDOUS!!
