This is definitely a full coverage foundation but it it buildable. I have dry skin and this works perfectly for me and has never left my face looking cakey. I would have to say this is one of the best drugstore foundations and i'll definitely be repurchasing!

Full coverage
Natural-Matte finish...not dewy thank god! i dont like dewey
lots of shades
stays on pretty well
i love it! :p
dries too fast!!
too liquidy
no pump
looks like your wearing make up...but i dont have a problem with that :p i know theres ppl that do tho, so consider it
My advice for using this so you love it just as much as i do, take a little and pour it on the back of your hand. take a stippling brush...dab it in and work on one part of your face at a time!! this will make u look amazing!

Age: 18 & Under Skin: Very Oily, Medium, Warm Hair: Black, Straight, Medium Eyes: Brown
My very first liquid foundation and it was waaay too heavy for me. I've tried applying it 4 different times already and it just looks unnatural/cakey on my face. I even tried mixing it with my moisturizer and that still didn't work. It was obvious that I was wearing foundation (even though it matched with my skin tone pretty well). The smell is really strong.
The only good thing that I can say about this is that it's VERY MATTE and has great coverage. I was hoping that this would be my HG foundation since there were so many good reviews about it from girls with oily skin like mine.

Age: 18 & Under Skin: Dry, Tan, Warm Hair: Brunette, Straight, Fine Eyes: Green
I've used this a couple of times but I'm a tinted moisturizer girl and honestly this just sucks for me. it's way thick, smells chemical which creeps me out even more, and after i saw how my friend got enormous acne problems because of it i can't even stand seeing this foundation anymore. I do use it for Halloween though cause they have a really light one and i think it's safer than the "paint" stuff from costume stores. I'm sorry if that sounded mean but I'm just telling you guys that my friend doesn't even go out anymore because of the acne that this foundation gave her :(

Age: 19-24 Skin: Combination, Fair-Medium, Neutral Hair: Brown, Wavy, Fine Eyes: Brown
I bought this after all the really good reviews about it. I wanted a good liquid foundation for a reasonable price and this fits the bill. This is definitely a long lasting foundation that has pretty much full coverage. The only things I don't like about it is the fact that it doesn't have a pump (it flows out really quickly so be careful!). It also felt like I was applying paint on my face when I used my foundation brush as well. This stuff dries quickly and if you use too much of it, it may look cakey as I learned the first time I used it. There are so many colors to choose from so it's not hard to find a color that matches your skin tone.

Very good foundation.
Has been compared to many expensive undrugstore makeup.
Buildable for that flawless look.
It really does stay on your face!
But it has no pump!
CONS: The packaging.

I've been using this product for 5 years. It has good coverage (don't really need concealer), doesn't break out my acne-prone skin, a bit water resistant (wore it while splashing in a pool). I like to apply it with a damp wedge sponge. Best I've ever used and I don't feel a need to explore other foundations.

Really like this - matches skin tone well. However i do wear a green concealer underneath. Lasts all day and looksa best at the end of the day... I am 15 and have it in ivory then i follow it with a bloom bronzer for some colour :)
only downside is packaging but thats not that big of a deal
its fabulous and doesnt break me out!

The Canadian women's clothing brand opens its second (and largest) NYC boutique. A 30-foot-tall mushroom installation shoots up to the ceiling, providing a canopy over the second-floor lounge and typifying the store's metaphysical theme. Unlike its smaller Soho counterpart, this spacious flagship stocks the complete women's collection, including four exclusive labels: tailored Wilfred, casual TNA, trendy Talula and classic T. Babaton. We have our eyes on T. Babaton day-to-night lace dresses ($165), TNA striped funnel-neck sweaters ($70), Le Fou by Wilfred faux-shearling coats ($298) and Wilfred Free geometric-print zip-front sweaters ($175). Accessories include TNA polka-dot backpacks ($75) and colorful cell-phone cases ($13), and Wilfred leather belts ($50).

A self-contained unit gives you the benefit of not having to manually fill the bin, which can save labor and prevent downtime. This convenience is especially important if you are buying a countertop ice dispenser for a self-serve drink station. A self-contained machine is more expensive than a dispenser alone, but if your customer volume fluctuates, it may be more practical to refill the ice as you need it. Ice in the bin that doesn't get used will melt and go down the drain.
Storage/Production Capacity
The size of the unit you choose will depend on how much ice you need over the course of a day, as well as how much you need to handle your busiest rush periods. In the case of an operator-loaded unit, this will determine the storage capacity you need.
If you choose a self-contained unit, 24-hour production capacity will be the most important thing to consider. Ice production ranges from 125 to 720 pounds per day. A commercial ice dispenser that produces 410 pounds of ice will make enough ice for around (650) 16-oz. drinks a day, which should be enough for high-volume convenience stores. In a busy restaurant that serves three meals a day, you may be serving a lot more than that. For some tips on how to figure out how much ice you'll need, read our guide on sizing a commercial ice machine.
Finally, a good rule of thumb for sizing a hotel ice dispenser is to estimate 5 pounds of ice per room per day, then double that if you plan on allowing guests on road trips to fill ice chests. The ice maker you choose should produce at least the total of that calculation, while the dispensing unit can have a storage capacity as little as half that.
Ice Style
A self-contained ice dispenser will make either nugget ice, flake ice, or full- or half-cube ice. Each style has different characteristics and benefits, making each a better fit for certain applications.
It's impossible not to notice the rise in popularity of nugget ice, also known as cubelet, pearl, gem, or chewblet. Over the past decade, this style has rocketed into position as the most popular type of ice in convenience stores. Many restaurants are also adopting it because customers enjoy its chewable texture and ability to absorb the flavor of the drink it's in. Some businesses even make a tidy profit selling it in bags.
Typical Applications
- Soft drinks
- Health care
- Soft and chewable
- Chills drinks quickly
- Ice absorbs flavors from beverages
- Shape creates a lot of surface area, cooling drinks quickly
This type of ice is common in grocery stores and fish markets , where it is used to keep produce and seafood chilled without damaging it, thanks to its snow-like, moldable texture. It also plays a big role in healthcare, where it cools drinks without creating a choking hazard and is moldable to fill icepacks.
Typical Applications
- Healthcare
- Chilled supermarket displays
- Fish markets
- Salad bars
- Cools food and drinks quicker than other ice types
- Easily molds to the shape of the item it is cooling
- Low production costs
Easily recognizable, this type of ice has been a staple in restaurants and ice bagging since the invention of the ice machine. It is available in full and half cubes, with half cube the most popular kind of ice of this type. The full cube style is popular in liquor drinks and fine dining restaurants due to its sophisticated look and slow-melting properties.
Typical Applications
- Soft drinks
- Liquor drinks
- Displaces more liquid, reducing beverage costs
- Melts slowly
Compressor Types
The compressors in these models can be either air cooled or water cooled. Of the two, air cooled is most popular because these units don't drive utility bills up like a water-cooled one can and typically have a lower initial cost. Unless you choose a remote compressor, this type can raise the ambient temperature in the room because they exhaust the warm air created by the refrigeration system. A remote unit moves the heat- and noise-generating components outside, typically to the roof or otherwise outside your building. Installing one means running refrigerant lines between it and the ice maker. This keeps inside conditions cool and quiet, and can save on energy costs by reducing HVAC demands. The downside to them is they are more expensive to buy and install.
Water-cooled machines can produce more ice using less electricity. Water is pumped through the condensing unit, which absorbs the heat from the refrigerant and carries it away. Models that aren't hooked up to a closed-loop water system dump this warm water down the drain, which raises your utility bill. In some areas, this type is being outlawed due to its waste of clean water. A closed loop system is filled with water once, then it continually cycles the water, chilling it in a cooling tower. The installation costs of closed-loop systems are prohibitive for many facilities, but for operations with a large number of ice machines or other water-cooled refrigeration like resorts, casinos, grocery stores, hotels, and hospitals, it can save a lot of money in the long run.
With a hotel ice dispenser, because there are likely to be a large number of those units in a given facility, the ice maker head units used with them are more often water cooled. Using this type of system significantly cuts down on the noise and heat produced by the compressor in guest areas. It's also more economically feasible and efficient because a single cooling tower can work with every unit in the building.
Control Method
Ice dispensing is controlled with either a lever or a touch-free sensor. Levers remain the most popular option, though touch-free sensors have become more affordable and more popular in recent years. This type has fewer moving parts, making it more reliable. Because cups don't physically touch the machine, this kind also reduces the risk of cross contamination.
Water Dispensers and Drink Rails
Many models are available with a built-in water dispenser. A water dispenser allows users to grab a cup of water conveniently from the same unit as they get their ice. This feature is especially useful in break rooms and other locations where a drink rail is not mounted nearby. However, you may view this as an unnecessary expense if you are placing it near a drink rail that has water on it.
There are also ice dispenser models available with a drink rail built-in. Also known as a beverage dispenser, a drink rail allows you to dispense sodas or other beverages. If you want the flexibility to create your own drink selection or to add beverages from two different vendors, then buying your own drink rail is a great option. Models are available with anywhere from 8 to 24 drink dispensers.

We hear the same two questions from a lot of riders:
Why do my winter riding gloves feel bulky?
Are there gloves that keep hands warm, and provide a better feel for the controls?
Gloves without bulky padding would obviously be a lot better.
So the question is, if we can put a man on the moon, why do glove manufacturers still make gloves this way? What gives!?
Here's why it's a difficult problem to solve ... and some options to consider:
