MAC Cool Heat Collection and Giveaway!
Alas, another MAC collection to put us in frenzy – full of brilliant blue shadows and hot summer pinks and corals for lips, it’s appropriately called Cool Heat. What a great collection to turn up the heat on your summer look, yes? Keep reading below for your chance to win a couple items from this HOT collection!
I love that blues are making a comeback and my favorite of this set is most definitely Blue Flame, a dark metallic blue that’s gonna make me a hot smoky eye. I know I said I was gonna rock it earlier this week but I’ve been having one of those lazy makeup weeks.
I’m heading out to the Nordstrom Summer Beauty Trend show in a few minutes – how are you spending your Saturday? Stay tuned for another post later today on all the hot beauty looks for the season and my friends’ makeovers that we’re going to do!!
The complete Cool Heat collection includes:
SLIMSHINE ($14.50 US)
Tropic Glow a delicious shimmery pink that makes me feel like I’m in love
By Degrees a great everyday neutral pink, but not a standout for me
Gentle Summer a nude shade of peach, perfect for layering lip shades
High 90’s this one is scary looking in the tube, I’m talkin’ super orange, but turns out to be a nice coral for summer
Swelter a fun red-orange, but not one that can work for everyone’s skin tone
EYE SHADOW ($14 US)
Solar White Frosty muted white gold (frost)
Warming Trend Frosty light taupe (veluxe pearl)
Warm Chill a nice seafoam green that I rocked immediately last week!
Gulf Stream a more brilliant version of Warm Chill with a tad more blue
Cool Heat yummy teal for summer, find out how to WIN it below!
Climate Blue this is a mid-tone violet blue that I found was hard to swatch and blend
Blue Flame I can’t wait to try this dirty metallic navy blue in smoky eye very soon!
Want a chance to win Cool Heat eye shadow and High 90’s slimshine from this collection? I know you do!

Next to High 90s, Tropic Glow is another decent SS shade in this collection. I dunno, MAC collections don’t always seem to wow me, except for one or two products with each release, if that. Their permanent stuff never gets the recognition it deserves.

Hi sarahPUFFY!
I love Tropic Glow, it’s such a sassy pink and is a regular in my makeup bag right now
I always find a couple of products in each release that I really like – and you’re right, I haven’t purchased anything from their regular collection in a while.
How was your weekend? I’m getting ready to make some carrot cake for Father’s Day!

Ha, its pretty funny since I’m not that huge of a MAC fan. I adore my MSFN and Studio Fix, and I’d love to try the slimshines [if only they had SPF], but I actually find all the collections annoying, because its sort of an excuse for women to spend money on something they may already have in their arsenal.
And my weekend, although a little restless, has been quite pleasant. We’re finally settling into a new home and the family is really enjoying the newfound space. Good luck with that carrot cake, doll!

Hi sarahPUFFY!
Wow, moving has got to be exhausting! I’m glad you’re loving your new place – more space for makeup is never a bad thing
It’s definitely hard to keep up with all the MAC releases and I really just buy what I know I don’t have. Well, not entirely true – I cave at just about any pink lip gloss they have but I’m pretty good at having the will powder to say no to shadows and such – LOL!
What’s your favorite beauty brand?

Oy, you have no clue. I’m trying to find some decent containers to stash all my makeup in! Otherwise I don’t have a drawer to store pants in! Plus, we needed the extra room for my one year old brother! He’s a vivacious little thing.
Ah, my favourites have to be Urban Decay and Cargo…hands down. I have a newfound respect for DuWop as well! Their TM has literally saved my life.

How fun much your little brother be! They’re so cute and certainly a handful when they are that young
I need to play with other brands more often but I don’t get to Sephora often enough to do so – it’s probably a good thing!
Hope you’re having a great Monday!

I like the eyeshadows, but one of them looks just like Atlantis from Milani.

Hi Denise,
It’s so hard for me to find Milani eyeshadows in my local drugstores! I need to check and see if Ulta’s got them on my next run
What’s your favorite blue shadow for this season?

Hey Kia!
What do you think of Cool Heat e/s? I love the range of blues but honestly, I’d only really ever wear the darkest one on the regular
Hope all is well friend!
