So what do you guys think? I think its a fab collection from what I've seen. (I won't be seeing it in person I live too far away) I have my eye on Warm Chill (Is it ashy on?), Climate Blue (Could you dupe it with Thunder from the Blue Storm Collection with Very Pink Reflects patted on top?) and Warming Trend (Is it like anything in the permanent line and is it cool?). I'm also eyeing High 90's and Swelter Slimshines.
Raves, Rants, Reviews, Let's hear em'!!

P.s. What do you think of Cool Heat shadow???

Re: WOC- Cool Heat

This collection screams WOC! The blue, green and purple eyeshadows speak for themselves!

Re: WOC- Cool Heat

This particular collection was kind of made for us. I have a hard time appreciating lighter folk with bright blue eyeshadow.. I dunno.
Solar White looks like it's gonna become my next HG highlighter.. and Gulfstream looks ridiculously pretty.
i'm more interested in the slimshines though.. Tropic Glow is looking mighty fine.. if I had the money.. I'd buy all the slimshines with this collection.

Re: WOC- Cool Heat

I think I will only be looking at Warm Chill. All of the colors have something similar in my collection since I love blues (Steamy, Parrot, Big T, Deep Truth, Contrast... should I go on?).

Re: WOC- Cool Heat

I want the shadows (not into Slimshines) but I can't help wondering how different these blues and teals are from stuff in the perm. line or LE items we (I) already have.

Re: WOC- Cool Heat

Which shadows do you guys think are dupeable?
Would Warm Chill look ashy?? A few look like they are something I could dupe, but from those that have seen them, help PLEASE!!! LOL

From the pictures, Warm Chill looks like Aquavert. Gulf Stream looks like Waternymph (maybe slightly less green) and Blue Fame looks like Deep Truth. Part of me hopes I am right so I can decrease my wish list to just Climate Blue, Cool Heat (which may or may not look like Parrot on me) and maybe Warming Trend. And who knows, I may give the Slimshines a try.

Re: WOC- Cool Heat

So far I'm wanting Solar White, Warm Chill and Warming Trend and probably a slimshine or too. I have enough Teals and Blues from previous launches but you can never have enough subtle shades for everyday looks.

Re: WOC- Cool Heat

I've only seen the eyeshadows. I don't tend to wear alot of blues and greens but i do like the purples.

I'm looking forward to it, though...

Re: WOC- Cool Heat

the slimshines didnt really grab me but then again Im not too familiar with them anyway. I just want three of the shadows - warm chill, gulf stream and cool heat. Thankfully this collection wont break my bank!

Re: WOC- Cool Heat

Initially I was whatever about this collection. Then I got super excited when I took another look at the promo pics. But now that I have seen actual pictures and swatches, I am loosing all interest. Maybe seeing it in person will change my mind, but I can totally see myself not getting a single thing. Which would be great because July collections are going to hit hard.

Re: WOC- Cool Heat

I really keep going back and forth with this collection. I'm pretty sure that I want Solar White and Warming Trend definitely. Oh yea and Swelter and High 90's slimshine. But as for the rest of the eyeshadows, I'm not sure. I dont want to regret not getting them either. I have colors that are similar to the rest, but these colors in the collection seem so much richer than the dupes.

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!
