Is your makeup kit ready for summer?

Tomorrow (June 12, 2008) is the release of MAC's Cool Heat Collection in the U.S & Canada. Although, I like MAC & have several of their products I will add that I don't love MAC. I find that over the years the formulations have changed & so has the company (owned by the Estee Lauder Companies Inc.). Nevertheless, the selection of colour choices is endless. That being said, the Cool Heat collection reminds me of summer, exactly the colors I was looking for.

TEMPERATURES SIZZLE…BUT THE PERFECT BALANCE LIES WITHIN REACH. COOL HEAT. NOT AN OXYMORON: SUMMER’S CHILLEST LOOK. FIVE SLIMSHINE LIPSTICKS, SEVEN EYE SHADOWS, AND TWO SKIN-COOLING FRAGRANCES: SUMMER’S FAVOURITE TURQUATIC, AND INTRODUCING ITS SISTER SHADE, TURQUATIC HEAT. SOME LOOKS ARE TOO HOT FOR SUMMER TO HANDLE BUT NOT COOL HEAT. FOR THIS TIME OF YEAR, IT FEELS JUST RIGHT. MAC Cosmetics
