Oh no! Well I don't have otherwordly either. I have Rollickin which I like a whole lot better from the swatches I have seen side by side. I wasn't a MAC fanatic during the McQueen launch

Okay no problem, I'll wait!

Thank you! Initially I had a hard time. lol I was too impatient. I have been collecting MAC shadows for years but never though about depotting them until I joined this site. I use the heating method which is to put them over a flat iron. I find it easier for me now since I can do about 3 at a time. Then I take a knife to pull out the pan w/o damaging it when the glue isn't to sticky anymore.
It is a lot easier for me because I have all of them together. I need more palettes now. hahaha

Re: Cool Heat Discussion

none of those were really frosts i don't think. unfortunately mac's been mislabeling alot of their finishes lately. but i think they got em right this time.

you do not have to be a pro member to buy ANYTHING, ANYWHERE. being a pro member only gives you a discount. most pro locations release collections a week before it's released at stores/counters.

So it will be Solar White, Warming Trend, Cool Heat, Gentle Simmer slimshine (I didn't notice the arrow next to this and High 90's before, silly me!) and I have to decide between Gulf Stream and Blue Flame

why decide? get both!

I'd love to see Solar White swatched next to White Wheat, if possible. And of course thanks to erine1881 for all the advance information. It helps tremendously when it comes to budgeting for all these collections.

its kinda resembles flashtrack, only cause is kinda resembles deep truth. flashtrack and deep truth are similar.

solar white has a bit of pink to it in comparison to white wheat. but not noticable when its alone.

i have new swatches below.

this looks exactly like my blue palette. it is strange how everyone tends to organize their palettes in the same way, but that we still end up loving the way that they are organized.

Re: Cool Heat Discussion

Thanks for the comparison swatches Erine! Dare I say I am a bit disappointed? They don't look so special anymore

I still want 3-4 of them, but I already have Deep Truth, Big T and Blue Storm so I will probably scratch a few off of my wishlist. Solar White, Warming Trend and Warm Chill are still definates for me

 

[GlamYOURUs]

Re: Cool Heat Discussion

I still want Climate Blue since it looks like UD's Ransom which I don't have.
Warm Chill looks like juxt from the swatch but it could be the camera.

Re: Cool Heat Discussion

Thank you so much for all of the swatches, erine. I may indeed need to buy Solar White by the case. It's completely beautiful.

Re: Cool Heat Discussion

Dupable, YAY for my wallet! Still veryyyy interested in Solar White though

And I thought it would be appropriate to announce this here: today my blues and my teals had to separate into 2 separate 15 palettes, yikes!!

 

[purrtykitty]

Re: Cool Heat Discussion

Solar White is just gorgeoussssssss!! I think better than White Wheat! And since I don't have the dupes for this collection, I'll be getting these.

Re: Cool Heat Discussion

What was the finish of Big T? If cool heat is a VP I am going to have to get it. I just love that finish and the blendability.

just remember, the finishes are all different, which makes a difference on skin.

it is definately not like juxt. just chartreuse-like, and warm chill is definately a seafoam-y green. and the gold sparkle makes it even better!

Re: Cool Heat Discussion

Oh lawd, I might end up getting two of each eyeshadow!!!

it was a velvet i believe.

Re: Cool Heat Discussion

Big T is a Frost

 

[Glosslizard]

Re: Cool Heat Discussion

Yummmm! I keep waffling between wanting four or all of the shadows! And I keep coming up with looks where I want to use the slimshines from this collection! Swelter and Tropic Glow both look absolutely mouthwatering!!

Alot of them look alike one the eyes anyway I do love the neutral ones though - my favorite neutrals are the gold toned ones I am trying to listen to the voice of reason!

I haven't got a palette because I don't depot my single e/s but these are my colours, too! I passed Submarine from NN because I want the ones from Cool Heat, also twice

I second.

Thanks Erine, too!! The swatches may look similar but I am convinced no new colour or shade from Cool Heat is exactely the same like older blue-greens, so I will buy them
