What the gurus are saying

This foundation earns praise for its smoothing texture, though it splits reviewers on staying power and coverage depth. One creator found it delivered less coverage than comparable foundations and felt less innovative than newer formulas on the market, while another loved its smoothing quality but needed additional products to extend wear time on her skin. Not much consensus yet, so there is not a lot to go on so far.

"This one is also really popular, and it's positioned for slightly more dry, mature skin since their Double Wear is the one for oily skin. It claims a little more coverage, but on my skin I actually got better coverage from the other foundation I compared it to. I think this formula feels less recently evolved than some of the newer glow foundations, so between the two it wasn't my pick."

"I'm not super familiar with the Estée Lauder Futurist Hydro Rescue. So that would be interesting to look into as well."

"Another foundation that they have there that I really love a lot is the Estée Lauder Futurist foundation. [...] This one just missed holy grail. It's very smoothing though, but it did need a lot of other products kind of thrown at it to help it to wear long enough on my skin."
