This is my mother’s favorite brand. Maybe I’ll go with her to check some things out. I’m interested in how that gel liner turns out.
I love the blush in the palette, it’s such a perfect bronzey shade for summer. The gel liner is pretty nice, or from what it looked like on the SA.
all items look niceee! this is the first time E.A actually appeals to me hahaha.
I got the gel liner and its nice but the color is basically a dead on match for MAC Delft paintpot. Wish I would have know then I could have saved the $23 its still nice if you don’t have Delft.
I love the summer LE bronzers EA comes out with – with the free matching kabuki brushes! but this one has to be the best! I have the one in medium and love it so much! May get a back up!
EA to be honest isn’t my first choice of brand but I love the lady at my local counter, I’m always getting uber-generous deals – lots and lots of freebies!
Oh and Tropicoral lipgloss is gorgeous! Really flattering with a summer tan! (or bronzer.)
you know this counter is like two counters down from where I work. I always thought it was an old lady brand but they actually have some really pretty stuff.
Tropicoral gloss was a lemming of mine for quite a while but once applied it’s a basic clear gloss with shimmer. I was very disappointed.
I bought this palette a couple of weeks ago, along with the Rosy Mineral blush, and it’s just beautiful 🙂 The colors work so well together, with the teal-ish shade not being over-the-top at all (I can’t wear colors well at all, and this works on me).
I’m trying to get back to the EA counter to pick up the Maple gloss that was sold out at one store!
PS — while EA may not have as much color variety as other lines, this is definitely no longer an “old lady” brand. The quads are wonderful and pigmented, and their Ceramide l/s are fantastic 🙂
HTHS!
In the uk weve had this for months!!
I have 2 bronzers, the gel eyeliner (AMAZING tealish blue) and a lipgloss.
The bronzers dont streak.. its fabulous!!
People always see it as a mumsy range. What they dont know is that their limeted summer collections are to die for!!
Hi Tali,
is the gel-liner somewhat smudge-proof and does it have good staying power?
Actually, EA makeup (and skincare even) is pretty good. Their ceramide loose powder and tinted moisturiser work very well together and their colour intrigue lippies are very comfortable to wear (i’ve got them in Raisin Cream and Teaberry Shimmer). I’ve just texted my SA to ask when the collection is premiering in Singapore. I’m lemming for the bronzer with the kabuki (i’m a MAC NC43 for reference) and was dying to get my hands on the gel liner until sarahdesiree pointed out it was a dupe for MAC’s Delft which i have already. Waiting excitedly nonetheless!
I use the gel liner as a base and it makes the most fierce smokey eyes combined with a matte black eye shadow.
