have used it for years. make sure you face is clear of any oil or cream before you apply and do it lightly.. and that's a good color for summer. if yo need to touch up in a few minutes. o.k. make sure to blend it well.

Water proof foundation/cover up?
Is there a such thing as a water proof foundation/cover up, with sun block and maybe acne treatment?
I know neutrogena came out with a foundation that helps to treat acne, but I'm looking for more of a waterproof sun block type. I have a couple of scars from my acne and I'm heading to vegas this weekend. I want to go to the pool area without having everyone see my scars on my face.
Any suggestions?
i have clinique almost makeup. it has spf 15 and is waterproof. it has coverage somewhere between a foundation and a tinted moisturizer. you can get it at sephora or a cllinique counter at a department store like macy's
Im looking for a solid freestyle board that can take some pow and backcountry. Im deciding between the Ride Agenda or the Forum Recon. Help?
I used to ride a Forum Recon but that was a few years ago and im not sure how similar the board i rode will be to the current Forum Recon which is now made by Burton. I guess they are pretty much the same and if so i would definately recommend one of those. Its a true all mountain board that can be used for all types of riding and terrain and is also a really forgiving board to ride and is easy to learn on. Good luck with the riding.

Backcountry Scenic Drives: California Fire Lookouts
Wildfires have scorched acres of National Forests lands in the last several dry years. Manned fire lookouts can prevent such fires, which close OHV trails and limit forest access. The Forest Service has dismantled hundreds of lookouts despite their importance. Remaining lookout towers, intriguing structures perched in precarious and remote locations, have achieved cult status. Many have been refurbished into rustic cabins and campers rent them for overnight backcountry trips.
Plumas National Forest in northeastern California has two adjacent off-road trails with a total of 5 fire lookouts to visit. Not all the lookout towers still standing are currently in use. Advancements in fire detection systems and budgetary restrictions gradually eliminated the need to man all the towers. Plumas, like most other California National Forests, still staffs lookouts in the summer.
Thompson Peak Trail starts 9 miles south of Susanville. Grizzly Ridge Trail is located about 24 miles southwest of Susanville off Highway 89. Both trails are easy dirt roads with more difficult spur trails leading up to the towers. These are just two of the trails in the area that form a network of interesting 4-wheel drive roads for all difficulty levels.
One trail climbs to Thompson Peak and Red Rock Fire Lookouts. Both are staffed during fire season, and the watchman typically gives visitors permission to climb the towers and admire the view. Constructed in 1955, Red Rock Fire Lookout fell into disuse for a short time, but rejuvenated and reopened in 1984.
The Civilian Conservation Corps built Thompson Peak Lookout in about 1931. The square concrete building beside the lookout was added in 1950 as the seat of a three-legged iron tower. A radar dome topped the 34-foot tower and scanned the sky as part of the Early Warning Defense System, created during World War II. Throughout the war, a typical part of all lookouts’ jobs included scanning the horizon for Japanese aircraft.
Not only does the Thompson Peak site serve as a fire lookout, it is also a noted observation point for raptor migration and a popular hang-glider launch site. Falcons, bald eagles, and hang-gliders ride thermals, created by warm air rising from Honey Lake below, to gain altitude.
The other trail winds through the forest with spurt trails to Mt. Hough, Argentine Rock, and Smith Peak Fire Lookouts. It is also part of a designated Forest Service OHV trail network for ATVs and dirtbikes. Snowmobilers and cross-country skiers flock to this trail in winter. Lake Davis, at the road’s end, is stocked with trout and is popular with boaters, picnickers, and campers. Remains of the Walker Mine and mill are located at the mid-point of this drive. This extensive copper mining operation once employed 600 men and maintained a sizable town for its workers nearby. Beware; the huge tailings pond and mill remains have been declared a toxic site.
Established in about 1909, Mt. Hough (pronounced Huff) is one of the earliest lookouts erected in Plumas National Forest. Construction costs totaled only $303 at the time. Plumas replaced the original lookout tower with a new structure in 1916 and another in 1934. The forest finally built the three-story structure on the site today in 1986.
With its commercial phone line directly to “civilization,” this station acts as a hub for the forest’s other lookouts. With permission, visitors can normally climb the tower during the summer to see the expansive 360-degree views. Like the site of Thompson Peak Lookout, hang-gliders also launch from Mt. Hough. The spur to the lookout continues past the tower, descending steeply to the picturesque Crystal Lake. This rough, steep descent is difficult.
Argentine Rock Fire Lookout is 10 miles from the turn-off to Mt. Hough Lookout. The forest constructed this now-abandoned structure in 1934. Budget cutbacks and the use of fixed-wing aircraft to spot wildfires eliminated the need to staff this lookout. Vandalism and neglect have made the structure unsafe.
At Smith Peak Fire Lookout, you can look back over Grizzly Ridge and overlook Lake Davis. The Smith Peak site was initially used only as an emergency vantage point. Only the most rugged watchmen manned the rock crest before the forest constructed the current structure in 1935. Forest service staff welcomes visitors in the summer between 9:30 a.m. and 6:00 p.m.

Snowmobile Clothing Guys do i sound like a good type of girl to date?
I have long brown wavy hair and blue green eyes. My skin is really fair but it doesn't make me look sick. Some of my hobbies include reading water tubing snowmobiling wake boarding and snow boarding. I am 4'll and i am 20 years old but i have that baby face because i am so petite. I do have a curvy body so if you like stick thin girls I am probably not your type. All my friends like to party and they get the guys but i will admit it. They look trashy at times. If you have ever seen the show vampire diaries i have clothing style like the character Elena.
Do i sound like a girl to date? I am also majoring in Biology. Hoping to get a doctorate someday.
Thanks
Shannon
Athletic, curvy, and brains? Please give me your number, jk. The guys that goes for the trashy type are the ones that are just looking to score. Are you asking because of low confidence? Remember, you are a girl with integrity. Wear it proudly. You will attract the same type of guy. Yes, they are out there. (like me)
