Re: WOC- Cool Heat
I'm pretty sure I want some shadows, but I have to see them to see what would help round my collection out. I definitely want Tropic Glow and High 90s slimshine.

I actually have a couple slimshines, I meant what did you think of the ones in this collection.  I know I am definitely getting High 90's. That's it for those, unless someone has any other suggestions for a beautiful warm summery pink.
As for the shadows, I keep going back and forth and my list is back at:
Warming Trend
Warm Chill
Climate Blue
Cool Heat
What I don't like I'll send back as I'll have to order online. Yea!! I can't wait. What a great year for MAC!!

Re: WOC- Cool Heat
Leave it you you Specktralites to have me second guessing. I'm not too excited about the eyeshadow b/c I seriously think all of them are dupe-able. Or at least colors you can do without. But now I'm thinkin' about checkin' some of them out. And I will definitely be peepin' at the Slimshines!

Re: WOC- Cool Heat
I'm with you, AfricanaEyes. I've not been really hyped about any of the new releases lately (and my pocket and I should be thankful!). I am most excited about upcoming piggies, and hope that these new ones won't disappoint. With that said, the shadows in Cool Heat look like they are probably just ok for me, as I've never felt really confident about wearing blues and blue greens. I'll have to check them out, of course.

Re: WOC- Cool Heat
I love this collection!! Im getting all the shadows except for Warming Trend and Climate Blue. I'll have to swatch Blue Flame in person to see if i really need it to not considering i already have Deep Truth. Blue Flame seems more metallic then Deep Truth so i might just cave and get it anyways. Im also thinking about High 90s slimshine as i've never tried them out before but im not one for very colorful lips so i will have to check out the slimshines in person before i decide for sure.

Re: WOC- Cool Heat
So far my llist has all of the shadows and tropic glow and high 90s slimshines. since i'm rebuilding my collection...it's fun to get the LE shadows and still get some much needed color punches....

Re: WOC- Cool Heat
I keep going back and forth about what I want. I KNOW I want Cool Heat and High 90's. Other than that its Climate Blue and Warm Chill. *Sigh* I guess when I get my order I'll decide what to keep. I was super excited for the N Collection, and Fafi, ordered everything I thought would look good and returned it ALL but one item each. I hope this is the same way, but I LOVE blues, greens, purples and bold lip colors so I dunno...yes I do, I'm super excited! I love when MAC has new collections!!

Re: WOC- Cool Heat
A lil off topic (sorry). The colors look really nice but what I'm really wondering about is Turquatic Heat perfume. I'm not a real big fan of the original but for some reason the limited edition looks like it might a perfect scent for summer.
