Paint job. Paint is peeling. I think those of us that have dealings with this company should meet and discuss what appropriate actionsare available. Contact me I'll arrange the meeting.
DO NOT believe anything they say! Will lie about anything, talk badly about other pool locations and do not follow through , will NEVER do business with them again and would discourage anyone from believing what they say.
Hired to install beaded above ground pool. Liner fell in 2 days after install, took a week to have someone come to to repair it. Fell in again come spring and is now trying to charge more than the first install!?! STAY AWAY!!!
How many times should you have to call a company to get service? I'm up to 6 and still nothing - only lip service. Heard bad things about them from other peaple. I'm sooooo done with them.
nothing but good things to say about them..i was referred to them by a neighbor,and i have referred others to them..

FRIDAY, Dec. 6, 2013 (HealthDay News) -- Xiaflex (collagenase clostridium histolyticum) has been approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration to treat Peyronie's disease, an uncomfortable curvature of the penis.
The drug -- first sanctioned three years ago to treat a hand deformity called Dupuytren's contracture -- is the first medication to be approved by the agency to treat Peyronie's.
The condition occurs when scar tissue forms under the skin, causing a curvature of the penis of at least 30 degrees, the FDA said Friday in a news release. This can lead to problems including "bothersome symptoms" during intercourse, the agency said.
The injected drug will be available for restricted use due to significant risk for "serious penile injury," the FDA said. Both the healthcare professional and the associated facility must be certified for use, the agency added.
Potential side effects of the drug and a related non-surgical procedure include bruising, swelling and pain, the FDA said.
Xiaflex is marketed by Auxilium Pharmaceuticals, based in Chesterbrook, Penn.

By DONNA CASSATA
Associated Press
WASHINGTON (AP) - President Barack Obama's not-so-secret counterterrorism fight against al-Qaida in Yemen and Somalia, the killing of Osama bin Laden and strong hints of a cyber war against Iran give Republicans few openings to challenge the commander in chief.
This aggressive national security policy has undercut the derisive label Republicans have successfully attached to Democrats in the past: the soft-on-defense Mommy Party. It has been one of the most effective election-year cudgels for the GOP. Just eight years ago, President George W. Bush capitalized on his tough response to the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks and Iraq's Saddam Hussein to win a second term. In a major assist to Bush's candidacy, the Swift Boat Veterans for Truth used debunked claims to undermine Democratic rival John Kerry's decorated Vietnam War record and cast him as "unfit to serve."
In the past 3 1/2 years, Obama has waged a secret campaign against al-Qaida in two countries _ one on the Arab peninsula, the other on Africa's east coast. The White House officially acknowledged the lethal attacks in Yemen and Somalia in its semiannual report to Congress last Friday. Navy SEALs took out bin Laden in Pakistan in May 2011 while armed drones have pursued al-Qaida terrorists within the country, degrading the terrorist group.
In public opinion polls, Obama gets high marks for his record on national security, a stark contrast to his dismal numbers on handling the nation's finances. An Associated Press-GfK poll conducted in May found that 64 percent approved of Obama's handling of terrorism and 53 percent approved of the way he's managing the situation in Afghanistan. By contrast, less than half approved of his handling of the economy (46 percent), unemployment (48 percent) or gas prices (30 percent).
Republicans, who have successfully pummeled the president on the economy, have made little headway on national security.
"There's nothing like success to quell criticism," said Rep. Gerald Connolly, D-Va. "I think the fact that there have been some successes, ranging from spectacular, Osama bin Laden, to the utter decapitation of al-Qaida to the disruption of violent insurgencies in Yemen, Somalia ... western parts of Pakistan has done much to quiet some of that criticism. ... I think the Republicans are very hard-pressed to criticize that aspect of the president's foreign policy."
That hasn't stopped Republicans from fixating on what they describe as major weaknesses in Obama's national security policy. Leaks of classified information, including reports of a computer attack that has infected Iran's nuclear enrichment facilities, led Republicans to demand the appointment of a special prosecutor to investigate. Republicans argue that the leaks were politically driven to help Obama and have jeopardized national security.
Democrats and the administration have rejected those demands. Attorney General Eric Holder instead has appointed U.S. Attorneys Ron Machen and Rod Rosenstein to oversee the investigation into who leaked information about U.S. involvement in cyberattacks on Iran and an al-Qaida plot to place an explosive device aboard a U.S.-bound flight.
"Considering how closely in time these items were published and how favorable of an impression they left about the president's approach to national security, it is not unreasonable to ask whether these leaks were part of a broader effort to paint President Obama, in the midst of an election year, as a strong leader on national security issues," Sen. John McCain, Obama's 2008 presidential rival, said Tuesday in a blistering Senate floor speech.
The Arizona lawmaker, who is the top Republican on the Armed Services Committee, has called the leaks "almost unprecedented" and insisted last week that he couldn't think of "any time that I have seen such breaches of ongoing national security programs as has been the case here."
Sen. Roy Blunt, R-Mo., told reporters Tuesday that the leaks "create a lack of confidence on the part of people around the world" who are cooperating with the United States.
Hardly, say Democrats.
Rep. Adam Smith of Washington state, the top Democrat on the House Armed Services Committee, said there is not "one shred of evidence" that individuals around Obama leaked information to enhance the president's reputation.
"They're (Republicans) just blankly asserting it and hoping it sticks. And the reason they're hoping it sticks is because the president has a very strong record on national security," Smith said in an interview. "His record makes that clear and the polls make it clear that people feel that way."
Kerry, D-Mass., the chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, said Republicans are "flailing around desperately trying to get some kind of handle, constantly trying to discredit the president, which doesn't serve our foreign policy or our national security."

GreatSchools Rating
Teacher quality
Principal leadership
Parent involvement
I graduated from AHS in 2010. I've met many people at college and we compare our schools. I never realized how lucky I was until I got out of there. There were times when I planned on sending m future kids to schools in the places where I wanted to live. My kids are going to go to Adamsville. The teachers are fantastic,. The band program is extraordinarily rare. Athletics are definitely rising up. Dual credit classes are now offered in math, history, and english. Adamsville is truly a diamond in the rough.
I think that this school is the very best by far. My son attends here and has so far received the best education so far. I love everything about this school.
AHS was a wonderful school when I attended a few years ago. I enjoyed the closeness of the staff and student body. The many different clubs available attributed to my ability to transition into college activities at a major university. Being involved in 4 different sports during my time at AHS was an amazing experience as well. AHS has competed in and placed in many tournaments to show the rest of the state how talented our students are in each sport. I wish that there had been more advance classes as I found myself a little behind when I got to college even though I graduated in the top 10. AP classes that would have counted as college credit would also have been very helpful. I also wish that the gifted program (TACS) lasted longer than the 8th grade as I made many friendships and learned numerous life lessons through it.
I have three children going there. I like Mr. Jackson. Some of the teachers are good some are not as good as a bigger school system. I would like them to have more foreign languages.

Dr. Bruce Wydick explains why it's so hard to compare other child sponsorship organizations to Compassion's unique holistic child development through sponsorship approach.
Why is it so hard to compare other sponsorship organizations to Compassion's holistic child development through sponsorship program?
"Just from my involvement with the industry, it seem that there are 2 different kinds of child sponsorship organizations. One, some that operate more like Compassion, foster a pretty close relationship between a sponsor and a child and the emphasis really is on that sponsored child. And the resources that are provided by the sponsor are directed very specifically at that child. There are advantages and disadvantages with that.
"One advantage is that it makes it easier for us to look at the outcomes in that person's life and see if those resources made a difference.
"Other organizations foster a relationship between a sponsor and a child, but the funding the sponsor gives in the name of the child goes more broadly to the village to provide what economists call 'public goods.' So, it might be used to drill a well or build a school or pave a road or it could be used for any number of things.
"It's much more difficult to assess that kind of program because the benefits are more diffuse. And so it makes it difficult to compare an organization like Compassion where the benefits accrue to an individual person in a way that we can actually measure the impact much more clearly with this other kind of child sponsorship program."

Oct 31, 2012This is a game whose core competencies prove too compelling for the peccadilloes to derail the experience fully. A vibrant, quirky world ripped seemingly out of an off-brand fairytale, a jaunty folk soundtrack, and a complete lack of sleazy monetization all add to the rock-solid puzzle mechanics.
Oct 26, 2012Hairy Tales is still an enjoyable puzzler and a great example of how to integrate a variety of puzzle elements with real-time action, all in a title wrapped in a fantastical weird shell. Suffice to say, puzzle fans should take heed at this latest addition, as I don't think you'll be disappointed.
Oct 30, 2012Hairy Tales certainly has a few elements that make warding off the corruption a bit more taxing than it ought to be, but it's still a very entertaining puzzle game with loads of bushy cuteness. So go ahead; grab a crystal and start running. Just mind the gaps.
Oct 31, 2012Tough, entertaining, and slightly mad, Hairy Tales is a decent puzzler that definitely deserves some attention.
Nov 9, 2012Hairy Tales is a weird one, that's for sure. But if you're looking for something fun that's not quite like anything else on the App Store, this one's real gem.

La Jolla Historical Society completes Wisteria Cottage renovation
If you go:
Wisteria Cottage and the "Climate Change" exhibit reopens to the public with extended hours, noon to 4 p.m., May 4-11, at 7846 Eads Ave. (858) 459-5335.
By Pat Sherman
Like a gift that keeps on giving — one layer at a time — the La Jolla Historical Society's (LJHS) recently completed renovation of Wisteria Cottage (where its exhibits are held) revealed some interesting things about the 1904 Craftsman-style cottage and its previous inhabitants.
During a recent visit to the campus at Eads Avenue and Prospect Street, LJHS Executive Director Heath Fox noted that about 40 paint samples were taken from exterior walls, trims and the roof, and then sent to Virginia-based art conservator Susan Buck for microscopic
analysis, allowing the LJHS and its architect, Ione Stiegler (of La Jolla-based IS Architecture), to replicate the original color of Wisteria Cottage ("Essex Green" with "French Canvas" trim) and the adjacent Balmer Annex ("Rockwood Sash Green" with "Muslin" trim).
"It turns out there were nine layers of paint on Wisteria and four layers of paint on Balmer," Fox said. "We restored Wisteria to the period of significance when Virginia Scripps owned it and Irving Gill remodeled it (1907) and Balmer Annex to the late 1940s when it was built as a classroom for what at the time was the Balmer School."
By accessing the attic, it was determined that the original roof was comprised of cedar shingles. It was also restored. (City code, which otherwise prohibits the use of highly flammable cedar shingles on homes, allows for their use on some historic structures with fire protection systems.)
Old drawings and photographs revealed an entrance and stairway on the left side of Wisteria Cottage that was removed and walled over when the building served as a bookstore (1960-2005), which was also restored. That side entrance adjoined a sidewalk that once connected Virginia Scripps' Wisteria Cottage with half-sister and leading La Jolla philanthropist Ellen Browning Scripps' South Moulton Villa (where the Museum of Contemporary Art San Diego is now located) — an important historic aspect of the property, Fox said.
LJHS Preservation Committee member Diane Kane wrote a historical structures report for the project, documenting features of Wisteria Cottage relative to the people who lived there and events that occurred there.
Poring through archives at UC Santa Barbara, Kane was able to locate master architect Irving Gill's original drawing for the remodel of Wisteria Cottage, which served as a better guide for the project than the blurry, faded copy in the LJHS archives, used as a reference for the building's 1982 historic designation.
Kane said she and Stiegler discovered that Gill added Wisteria's lower level, as well as cobblestone walls lining the perimeter of the property and cobblestone supporting terraces.
Though they were never able to identify Wisteria's original architect (it was built for Edith Seaman and husband, George, in 1904), they learned that Wisteria was once situated to the North, where Balmer Annex now is, and repositioned onto the lower level after the site was re-graded.

I can almost hear every carry permit instructor in the Twin Cities writing down the details of this case as their prime example of what never, never, ever to do with your firearm and permit:
The complaint said [Matrix Richard] Lee got up and ran at the woman to retrieve the purse, but she drove at Lee and lifted her arm making some sort of gesture that, in fear of being shot, prompted Lee to grab his handgun, insert a full magazine and fire around the fleeing vehicle. The driver apparently gave him the finger, and angrily, he fired an additional shot at the car in effort to pop the tires, Lee told police.
Pro tip: if they are fleeing, and so far away that you have to steady your arm for a long range shot at a moving target, you are probably not "in immediate fear of death or great bodily harm".
If the facts of the case are exactly as presented (always the caveat when the mainstream media is reporting on self-defense cases) then Mr. Lee would seem to deserve to be prosecuted for a whole dogs breakfast of charges, not the least of them reckless endangerment.
And not only will Mr. Lee truly deserve it, but I think we need to take a close look at whoever his carry permit training instructor was, just in case.

This new web series from Machinima is pitched as The Office set in the Portal Universe, which if we're honest is a pretty sweet frakking pitch. I love The Office, I love Portal. This should for all intents and purposes work a treat. Here's hoping this new intensely nerd oriented series has the chops to pull it off.
The synopsis and trailer are embedded below. Check em out:
Based in the world of Portal 2, the idiosyncratic scientists of Aperture Research Labs are in an endless battle for the meaningless title of Lab Team of the Month.

'Mystery pooper' hits park slides, baffles police
Updated On: Apr 04 2014 04:49:13 PM EDT
Police continue to hunt for the person who has been defecating on children's spark slides over the last five to six months.
The Ann Arbor News reports that police and city officials in Ypsilanti, Mich. are looking for the suspect they refer to as the "mystery pooper," who defecates on the same slides in the same park each time, and only at night.
Police installed a hidden camera to try to capture the suspect in the act. City officials and friends of the park plan to stake it out at night as temperatures get warmer.
Department of Public Works employees are tasked with checking the slides daily and cleaning up any human waste.

text: A landslide on the southern bank of Palisades Reservoir near the dam, along Forest Road 76, has moved significantly leading to the temporary closure of the road. Caribou-Targhee National Forest Supervisor, Brent Larson signed a closure order for the road and immediate slide area on April 27th. Access is not allowed from the Palisades Dam to Calamity Junction or surrounding area of the slide due to falling trees and high escarpments. Meanwhile, the South Snake River Road still provides access to the Calamity Area while the portion of the Snake River/Calamity Road over the Palisades Dam still provides key public access to summer homes, campgrounds, trailheads, and boat ramps. The campground and boat ramp, however are closed to vehicles with trailers due to a lack of space to make the turn at Calamity Junction.

Lunch ideas for Studio City
I work out here and haven't really ventured out for lunch - does anyone have any suggestions that isn't sushi?
Thanks much!
If you could get to Sherman oaks, you could do Il Tiramisu or Clay Oven. ONe is Italian, the other Indian. Satnley's is also in Sherman oaks and has good nosh. Jinkey's is OK and now open for lunch.
Gangadin is good indian in Studio City.
You could also try Boneyard Bistro, La pain Quoitidean, Bollywood Cafe, Risotto (is it open for Lunch?)Vegan Plate
Aroma Cafe (sandwiches & soups) on Tujunga is very good and a cute location, I recommend their turkey burger and any of their soups.
Almost next door to Aroma is Caioti Cafe (pizza & pasta). I would also highly recommend Artisan Cheese Gallery on Ventura & Laurel. Their sandwiches are sooooo good!
Outtake Bistro on Ventura Blvd is pretty good as well.

re: CarlieInLA
Oohhh,yeah, Artisan's sandwiches are yummy! If you call ahead, tehy'll make it so you can pick it up. My husband likes the duck confit sandwich!
re: HngryHippo
Ditto- the duck confit sandwich rocks, and the veggie is excellent. If you're feeling adventurous, they can put together a fabulous cheese plate. Last time a friend of mine and I went, they included a 500 year old aged blue cheese which made my week!
re: wenster
Aging is good in cheese, but five hundred years seems to be more than extreme. Perhaps the type of cheese has been made for 5oo years?
re: Diana
Haha- it could have been that too, I was actually too busy stuffing my face to really pay attention to the details of what the person was saying... then again, I guess I could buy into a 500 year old cave aged cheese... assuming again that 1) I actually heard what was being said above my incessant crunching and 2) he was telling the truth!
re: wenster
I just checked with my dining companion- frighteningly enough, it WAS 500 year old cheese...
re: wenster
I just called Artisan. . they said the cheese VARIETY and BRAND is 500 years old. The substance you consumed has not been aged on a shelf or cave floor for 500 years.
They had a good giggle, though.
re: CarlieInLA
Be advised -- Artisan Cheese Gallery has extreeeeeemely slow service. Perhaps phone order your sandwich ahead? You can eat it there, if you don't mind eating in a busy shop.
re: Maxmillion
Not too slow, but I always phone my sandwich order ahead, anyhow. It's just easier.
How about a torta from Tortas Mexico next to Residuals (near Ventura/Vineland)?
We like Reno's and Albano's a lot; there's also Bollywood, which is quite tasty. Marv's Deli and, yes, Art's, have pretty good sandwiches (Marv's is better IMNSHO).
In Studio City, I would suggest Risotto. Yes, it's open for lunch and with the winds calming down and no rain in the forecast, their patio should be just wonderful.
re: medrite
eew. Really?
Was wondering if you mean a sit-down lunch or lunch to go?
Sit-down places --
Mezzomondo -- fantastic and affordable neighbourhood Italian place, on Ventura, nth side, just E of Whitsett.
I echo the rec for Out Take Cafe. Great lunch place.
A good place to eat lunch is ZenChi on Moorpark, E of Tujunga.
I know you said no sushi, but you might like to know about Sushi Don Sasabune, next to the Jack in the Box, nth of Gelsons off Laurel Canyon. Exceptional quality and inexpensive. I prefer to take away, but you can eat there. Cute little place with a few tables.
My hands-down-all-time-best LUNCH rec for this area is actually in NoHo -- HealthyCA on Lankershim, sth of Camarillo. It's a tiny place with a yellow sign. You can eat there, but it's small and a bit of an industrial kitchen. Nice tables in the sunny window, tho.
They will deliver -- for the cost of the tip to the driver (unless that's changed).
HealthyCA Foods

re: Maxmillion
Healthy CA is so damn good, it just kills me that they are only open for lunch. If this place did take out dinner or even expanded its hours a smidge I'd be there weekly if not daily - and that is from someone who actually enjoys preparing her own meals.
I work in Studio City as well and have eaten at many local dining establishments during the lunch hour. When I'm not opting to walk to Trader Joe's and pick something up for $2.99 to throw into a heating device back at the office, I go to one of these places: (in no particular order)
1. Healthy CA really is the best lunch around. It's the place to go when you don't want to have to choose between healthy and delicious — and frankly, when would you ever? The salads are amazing in variety and ingredients (try the house-made lemon dressing) and they're huge, so share with a friend. The sandwiches are made on high-quality breads, worth the price of admission by themselves. The hot food is also fab!
Bonus: Lots of food for vegetarians. Minus: You have to drive to Lankershim Blvd. in NoHo. Bonus: Forget that, they deliver.
2. Speaking of vegetarians, Vegan Plate on Ventura Blvd., in the strip mall with LaLa's and Asanebo, is another great lunch spot. Their food is mostly Thai-influenced and really tasty. The lunch specials are a decent deal and their variety of actually delicious meat substitutes is stunning. The tofu chicken satay that is served with side of mustardy-peanut sauce is one of my favorites.
3. Outtake Bistro, just East of Vegan Plate on Ventura Blvd., has good American-style food prepared with care and style. The burger is good. The soups are good. The salads with tiny lamb chops are good. The fish entrees are good. And the turkey chili is a good. Heck, it's all good.
4. Studio City is the home of Sushi Row, so if you are willing to shell out the big bucks in the afternoon, Asanebo and Tama sushi are wonderful.
5. Art's Deli always rates high in polls about delis in Los Angeles, but you will have to throw down some bucks for lunch here. On the other hand, the sandwiches are big enough for two.
6. On Tujunga, Aroma Café and Caioti Pizza Café are both good. The chef at Caioti invented the California pizza made famous at Spago and Aroma has good sandwiches, salads, coffee and one of the nicest garden patios in the Valley.
7. If you just want to fill up and are not looking for an afternoon dining experience, there are several other options including:
Dupar's: Decent coffee shop food and pies that Mildred Pierce could be proud of.
Carney's: The hotdog joint in the old train cars next to Bed, Bath and Beyond on Ventura Blvd. has good dogs, burgers and truly delicious chili. They even have a vegetarian burger sandwich. Get the chili on top of anything.
Gelson's Market: At the corner of Laurel Canyon and Riverside Drive, Gelson's is an upscale market with a high-quality deli. They make fine sandwiches on fresh breads, plus they have a good salad bar and a new hot food bar. The Viktor Benes bakery at the front of the store is as good or better than any stand-alone bakery in the area. Think of them for office birthday cakes.
re: Cheezy Beefington
Haven't tried the turkey burger at Aroma Cafe but I love this sandwich they offer which is kind of a turkey melt with hummus inside. Yum!
Also, if you're looking for something to do after lunch then the attached bookstore is worth a visit.

A couple hope to share their passion for Italian wine and food with Horsham in their new shop which opened in the heart of the town last week.
Charles Dark and Sheila Simpson opened the Horsham Enoteca in the Carfax on Friday where they are offering a large range of bottled wines as well as hams, salami, cheeses, and other Italian produce.
As well bottled wines they will have six single-estate wines straight from the producer on draught where customers can fill up a bottle from £5.50 upwards.
Charles said: "It will be fun to share our passion. People stop and talk and it's been great.
"Since we have been here we have started to get recognised and people have asked us what we are doing here."
The couple previously ran a successful restaurant in Wales and became so bored with the wine offering they started imported their own, and were voted as having the best wine list in the UK.
Having spent the last 30 years living and working in Italy on and off, they have fallen in love with the country's wine and food.
Charles added: "We looked for some months to find the right place to do this and slightly stumbled on Horsham and thought it was magic.
"The location is fantastic and we love the town."
He explained that in Italy wines are picked to go with food, and they hoped to show on any bottle what food it is good to drink with.
They have around 100 wines to start with, but will gradually increase their range, and are inviting anyone with or without a knowledge of wine to come and visit them.
Sheila said they would be offering some pantry ingredients and would be drawing up some simple recipe cards.
She added: "It's nice because the thing is if you are a social sort of person being in contact with people is great fun. If you give something they enjoy or sharing a passion it's a very fun and enjoyable thing."
Charles added: "We think this will work and if does we will do it again but this is going to be the mothership."
The couple have opened the shop with Lisa Costello and Domenico Cafarchia.

This was my go-to foundation when I needed really good coverage. It really does that well. It's also the right amount of mattifying for my combo skin. It's got silica in it, which soaks up some oil for you.
My biggest problem with it was the color match. I have the lightest (1.0) shade but it's still too dark for my skin.
This gets a 4/10 for health on goodguide.com, and I'm on the prowl for a foundation to better suit my current needs: color match, better ingredients, lighter coverage.
2 out of 2 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
The palest shade was ridiculously too dark and orange-toned for my skin (I would say I'm probably around NW10, maybe paler). There's no way I'd be able to wear it without mixing it with my white foundation.
The coverage was great - covered my redness and acne scars well, and it did stay put without going shiny for around 6-7 hours (which is pretty incredible because my skin is really oily). After 12 hours though, my face did look oily and I would definitely need to fix it up. I also loved that I didn't need to re-do my makeup through the day because it stayed put.
I found this foundation broke me out though - I was so disappointed! I even made sure I removed it all at the end of the day and still no luck. Would be my HG if it didn't break me out!
Wanting something lighter than my usual doublewear for Summer I discovered this last week. It gives just enough coverage for the warmer weather and applies well with both brush and fingers. I opted for the lightest shade and it suits perfectly, I would usually wear cool bone in Doublewear. I put a light dusting of powder over the top and it doesn't look too matte as other reviewers have commented.

Makes my skin look dry but I have normal skin with oily t zone. My bff commented that this foundation actually made my skin look worse!!!!
I used to wear Double Wear many years ago and loved it, but found it too drying for my skin in the winter, so I switched to something else. After seeing a raving review for this on a youtube blog called "Hot and Flashy" - which I highly recommend for anyone over 40 - I went to the Estee Lauder counter. The sales woman (I think she was the manager) matched the shade 02 to my skin -- which is very fair, but does have a lot of freckles. It was a perfect match. She cleaned my skin, applied a light moisturizer, and went to work on me. She applied the foundation with a brush and I could tell she was really slathering it on, but when I looked at myself in the hand held mirror she gave me, it looked great. She also told me if you use a brush to apply foundation, you will use a lot less than if you use your fingers. She advised me to exfoliate every night which would clear up some dry patches on my cheeks, and she gave me two samples of an exfoliating cleaner that I have been using and really like. So...then she applied the matte primer with a brush in various areas of my face on TOP of the foundation, which I found to be odd, but it worked. I don't know if she does this to everyone, but she said the products were meant to be mixed together if needed, at it looked great. Although my skin is dry, it felt great. I asked her about powder, and she lightly applied a moisturizing powder sparingly. After a little blush, I was ready to go. I ended up buying a kit that contained the primer, foundation, concealer, and a foundation brush. It was about $42 and I bought the powder as well. She threw in a sample of night serum. So then.....
I did what I call the true test. I got in my car, pulled down my mirror and looked at my face in natural light. WTF? My face looked good, but my chin looked like a cakey mess....just waaaay to much foundation. I was on my way to an after work meeting, and knew I could not go looking like this, so I wiped it off my chin, put on some of my L'Oreal powder that I had in my purse to try to even it out, and it fixed the problem. I think that although my sales lady was very knowledgeable about products for me, she was not exactly a makeup artist, and I don't begrudge her for that.
I have since worn the foundation by applying the primer first, and using a much lighter hand (literally -- I don't use the brush, I apply with my fingers) and it looks great. The staying power is about 7 or so hours, and is a nice light coverage. Today I am wearing the primer on my nose only (to hide some pores) and I just applied the foundation on the rest of my face without the primer. So far so good. I will update this if there are any issues. I am going to post a review of the primer separately because I did find (when I used it with my Cover Girl) it may not work with other products.

This is now better than the new double wear. I really thought all my 'new double wear' problems would go away when they brought back the shade 'shell' but its just as bad as the other new shades. It's nothing like it used to be. So I tried double wear light. Has excellent staying power and gives a matte finish - finally! :) hasn't caused any breakouts and it feels good on my skin. Would recommend :)

I've been wearing DW Light for a couple of weeks now because I really wanted to roadtest it properly before I submitted a review. Well, I am thrilled. I chose DW Light after a consultation at my local EL counter- I was colour matched to intensity 1.0 and headed off with my sample.
I am not really experienced with foundation. For all of my teenage years and most of my 20's so far I haven't needed any. All my memories of trying foundation have been bad. Admittedly we are going back about fifteen years but everything just seemed SO orange and so cakey and obvious. Not for me. But now in my late 20's I am experiencing hormonal acne and scarring in the chin area and I just cannot be confident about my skin without some form of coverage. And thus my foundation journey has begun!
To date I have stuck with drugstore brands, mainly out of fear of wasting my money. I have tried L'Oreal True Match, Revlon Colorstay, Bourjois Healthy Mix Serum. EL DW Light puts them to shame.
The strangest thing about this foundation is that when I apply it, it always looks too dark, too greasy and too heavy. Yet given a couple of minutes to set, it is fabulous. The colour melts into my skin and looks so natural. I apply with fingers- distribute the foundation over the area I am covering and then pat in. I only apply to my problem areas - chin, nose and side of cheeks achieve an even skin tone. If there are blemishes still showing then I top up with concealer. I have found that using this product, this way can achieve really close to flawless results. (I also prep my skin using a moisturiser- Dead Sea Spa Magik Rich Moisturiser).
The colour Intensity 1 is an almost perfect shade for me. I say almost because I have quite yellow undertones (my skin is fair but at the darker end of 'fair') and the foundation does not. But somehow the colours of the product and my skin seem to mesh quite well together once it has set. I do have a hard time seeing how pale women with a typical fair British complexion will get away with it. I do know a few friends who can't wear this because the shades just don't run light enough.
The thing though that really makes DW Light a shining star is its lasting power- and ability to stay looking fresh hours after it was applied. This is where I really feel the drugstore formulas let me down. Whilst I was happy with them upon application, 6-8 hours later they looked crusty and faded. With DB Light I don't have this issue at all, in fact, I almost think it looks better the longer it is on! I don't need touch ups.
I suppose the only other thing to say is that when you wear such long lasting products on your skin you need to take a bit more time to cleanse properly when you are taking your makeup off. This is just a general point though and not really anything specific to this product.
So to summarise-
* Coverage medium/Natural finish (doesn't look like you have a face full of slap).
* Lasts and lasts
* Takes a minute or two to set and dry. Make sure you give it time before you judge.
* Lightest shade might be too dark if you are pale- get a sample! EL are generous with their samples!
* You'll need some additional concealing if you have blemishes/angry spots.
* Didn't cause any breakouts/skin sensitivity but make sure you remove it thoroughly at night.

This is my HG foundation, I use shade 2 for my NC 25 skin tone and it matches perfectly as my second skin! I like double wear light rather than double wear because the light version looks much more natural, and not cakey as DW. I live in humid area so I use MAC blot powder to set the make up during summer, overall I have finished 3 tubes and I will def buy this again!!!
I just wish the spf can be improved someday since spf10 probably is not enough ...

I am so sad. While I'm on the lookout for a cheaper foundation than the Giorgio Armani one (which I love, but it is so pricy), I decided to give this one a try.
My first impression of this was "WOW, this looks so beautiful and perfect on my skin, I love it". Then, next morning, I found those breakouts on my forehead, and my thought was "NO, why? It all started so perfect and pretty, why this?"
So now I am really upset that this foundation gives me breakouts. Estee Lauder, what are you putting in there that gives me those breakouts? Please stop! And don't tell me on your website that it is non-acnegenic. What a lie!
I have never been so sad a product hasn't worked for me. This foundation look amazing on, and it stayed perfect all day without any touch ups.The shade match was perfection. But it broke me out terribly ever single time I wore it. Every night I removed it I would find 5 or 6 new bumps or already formed huge zits on my face D: The same thing happened when I used MAC's Studio Fix foundation, so perhaps it's a specific ingredient. I wish it worked for me cause it was beautiful on!
