A perfume in the same size, square bottle as they normally do, but have two sides with two sprayers. One side with a "cool" scent and a turquoise-coloured lid and the other side with a "warm" scent with a vivid coral-coloured lid. Additionally, you could combine them for a complimentary scent. So you have two different fragrances, the juxtaposition of cool and hot and then you are able to bring them together by wearing both, thus cool heat. I am a cosmetic geek. Seriously....MAC R&D or creative development, gimme a call. I'm willing to freelance consult as well. Oh, pay me in product!

MAC_Whore, you are seriously AMAZING!

Love your idea.

Re: Cool Heat Discussion

Okay, I want like all of the eyeshadows even though I have enough blues. But the purple one really caught my eye.

ETA: Aww and the purple one is a velvet.

I wish it was a Veluxe pearl. Ah well, I'm still getting it.

Re: Cool Heat Discussion

boba tea is actually a type of bubble tea. bubble tea is made by adding juice + ice and tea to a shaker (may not have any tapioca pearls). so a layer of foam/bubble forms on top of the drink during the shaking, that's why it's called bubble tea. boba tea used to be called "pearl milk tea" in chinese (cuz of the there are tapioca pearls in it, and they are shaped like, well, pearls), and sometime in the late 80s, a merchant in taipei decided that the pearls looked like boobs after watching porn, and started calling the tea boba tea (boba means girl with big boobs), and the name spreaded quickly. (there are obvious problems with that name, so most ppl still call them pearl milk tea in chinese and bubble tea in english)

true story btw

They still mostly call it boba in English, not bubble tea.

Or black pearls. I work at a tea shop, and these are what people usually call it. There is not a lot of bubble tea really in the American tea shops, the more Chinese ones have bubble teas. And for those that don't know the classic drink with boba is milk tea, but it has been expanded to many other kinds of tea, fruit teas, slushies, blended drinks, bubble tea, bubble drinks, and juices!

And yeah, go Taiwan for making boba!
(Is Taiwanese)

Re: Cool Heat Discussion

So far I'm getting all seven shadows too. I kinda have a lil issue of finding the perfect highlighter, maybe the white wheat will be the perfect one. It looks so pretty. I'm not so sure about the slimshines. I never had a slimshine lipstick, so I'm hesitant to get one. I wonder if I should spend more on this then the Neo Sci-fi, now that I think about it.

*lightbulb* Oh I know, I will get all of the eyeshadows for this collection and all the lippies for the Neo Sci-fi. Its been settled. LOL

Re: Cool Heat Discussion

upto now i want:
6 of the shadows (dont think i want the dark blue one as i have quite a few and dont wear them)
and 2 slimshines: daisy and swelter
