Heat of the moment (and giveaway winner)

Say hello to my new babies!

I got myself three new MAC shadows, to my surprise they were all from MAC's Cool Heat -collection (2008).
I already owned Warm Chill, and now I got Solar White, Gulf Stream and Cool Heat:

Solar White

Frosty muted white-gold (frost)

Solar White is beautiful highlighter shade for me, it's warm light white gold with a hint of pink/peach shade:

 It's almost like MAC Cloudbound and MAC Vanilla pigment made a baby:

Cool Heat

Frosty teal with multi-dimensional pearlized pigments (Frost)

 

Cool Heat isn't exactly blue, nor it's green. "Frosty teal with multi-dimensional pearlized pigments" says the description, but I wouldn't call it teal either. It's really awesome color, and I've been drooling for this quite a while.

I guess these were the closest "dupes" I own:

Gulf Stream

Frosty mid-tone blue-green with green pearlized pigments (frost)

This was somehow lighter than I expected, I assumed this to be more striking, but this seems to be good pair to Warm Chill, which is also a bit "dull" color.
But this isn't exactly green either, it has quite a lot of blueish in it too.

Closest "dupes" I could think of were Sugarpill Midori (they look quite the same in the pot) and UD Flipside (which also looks a bit same in the pot, except much more shinier ):

Here's swatches of them all:

And here's some looks I made with them lately:

Tutorial: Bright colorful arab eye

This is a bit older tutorial, just found it from my computer :D

As always, start with priming your eye:

OPTIONAL STEPS TO MAKE THE COLORS POP MORE:

----

Use bright green base for lid (I used Limelight paint I got from Aromaleigh, but MAC Shadesticks, NYX Jumbo pencils etc will work, as long as it's bright light green. Or white might work too  ):

Then I used an orange base for crease and abov. I used MUFE Aqua cream #10, but again any bright orange will do.

----

Use bright light green eyeshadow to lid (I used MUFE #304):

Then use orange shadow to crease and above (MUFE #48 ):

Apply light gold-ish color to highlight, blend the orange with it (MUFE #101):

Add some dark color to outer V and crease (MUFE #40 in my case):

BLEND:

Then add bright yellow to inner corner:

Add some more dark to crease with blending brush:

Line your lower lashline with teal liner. Leave inner and outer corner "open" (MUFE Aqua Eyes 12L)

Then line your waterline and upper lashline with black liner, create the "arab shape" using winged liner:

Add some white to parts you left "open" with teal liner:

Then add MUFE #83 over the teal liner (or ie. MAC parrot):

Then add mascara:

 Then just add falsies:
