The bag was regifted to a younger cousin straight away, but these glosses have had a heap of use! Super sheer, but with a pretty tint, so all shades are super wearable. Love love love.

Reviews
I got this set from the reward vault and i have been using them daily. I absolutely love the colouring i think they are fab, they smell delicious and they arent sticky. I like using a couple of colours at once to create an ombre effect and i find them very long lasting.
Tips: Remember to 'prep' your lips with a lip liner to achieve ultimate colour and wear from your lip glosses. It just gives a base which makes the colour more bold and makes it wear for much longer!
I was lucky enough to get these from the vault (YAY!) and I love them.
As the other ladies have said they are not sticky which is a huge bonus for me and they have a very delicate scent to them.
They aren't very pigmented which I happen to love in a lip gloss and I also love the glittery bits. They last as long as I would expect a lip gloss to last, around a couple of hours.
The bag is cute but useless and I was disappointed in the size as I didn't read the description at all and assumed they would be full sized lip glosses but they weren't, but that doesn't stop me loving them. I honestly don't know if I would pay $59.00 again for them tho' as they are a bit on the small size.
I'm another lucky BR member to get this set from the beauty vault, yay! So pleased with the colour range. Not too sticky and a delicious buttery scent. I can't say I'm a huge fan of the purse/bag the glosses come in, but it will definitely come in handy. Perfect gift for any woman!
Each year we hang a small "tree present" on the Christmas tree. I was happy to find this hung there last year. Each lip gloss has a lovely sheer gold tone to it. They are not sticky, are easy to apply and last a wee while before having to re apply. I have still got a little of one left. Didn't use the bag it came In, but then I never do :) I would recommend this to all boyfriends/hubbys/friends to buy for your girl. She will love it :)
This would make a great little gift for ladies of all ages, there are shades in here to suits a variety of skintones, ages and personal preferences.
First I will describe the formula - I am someone who generally dislikes glosses so this is quite a thumbs up really as I actually like the formula of these - long wearing, a little sticky (to be expected) but a nice silicone type texture which stops them from being overly sticky. The flavour is divine - a buttery vanilla caramel - reminds me of caramello or something. I am also impressed that these don't contain parabens (according to the ingredients list) which I try and avoid in all of my lip products.
The shades: Passionfruit - incredibly pigmented bright peppy hot pink with blue undertones, absolutely does not work with my skintone but I have re-gifted it to someone who loves it!
Precious petal - nude pink loaded with gold shimmers - leaves glitter behind once it wears off so it's not my fave but it is definitely pretty for night-time or a bit of sparkle.
Coral Kiss - similar to Precious petal but less obvious gold frosting and gorgeous pinky peach tint to the lips looks fresh and healthy without trying too hard.
and finally my fave of the bunch (listed as a mauve shade on here) but mine contained the shade Royal Plum which I would consider purchasing in the full size since it looks so good on my skintone - it is a plummy mauve neutral browned pink with no obvious shimmer and a lovely creamy opaque texture.
You also get a cute little purse (luxury quality by no means but still nice) which is handy for keeping in the handbag - holds a compact mirror, a gloss and a mini mascara quite nicely for touchups.
I also bought his from the vault at the end of 2013, but I didn't try the glosses until the new year (they went into my Christmas stocking).
The red bag went straight in the bin, it has to be said it was pretty bad.
The glosses though are lovely. I thought I might find one or two good and the others not, but I have found all four very wearable, mainly as the are all quite sheer and not too strong. Even the bright colour 'Passionfruit' is very wearable. They are glossy but not sticky, sweet but not sickly, and as long as you're careful eating and drinking, reasonably long-lasting. They work well over lipsticks too, and don't fight the underlying colour.
What I do find strange is that one of the colours in the set is not one listed. Instead of 'Iridescent Mauve', my set came with 'Royal Plum'. This is also the only colour in the set without shimmer, the other three all have gold shimmer through them. I think there must have been a production error? Luckily, it's still a great colour, and it's good to have one without sparkle.
Tips: Try them over lipstick to get subtle variations. Each colour subtly changes the look of a single lipstick.
Firstly I feel kind of bad for giving this such an average review since I got this in the beauty vault sale (which I'm super, super grateful for!).
I wouldn't have purchased this usually as I'm not a fan of EA but was excited to try these. I thought for their price they'd be super pigmented, soft and long lasting.
They smell delicious (a vanilla scent), feel good on your lips - they're not tacky whatsoever, and are a great size for your handbag.
What disappointed me, however, was the pigmentation. They aren't very well pigmented at all and it took me 3 applications to get average colour payoff. They also have micro glitters in them which I'm not a massive fan of.
In saying this though, they do last a long time on your lips (around 2 hours on me if I'm eating or drinking), and they are nice and glossy.
To be brutally honest though, I wouldn't pay $60 for them when I feel like my NYX glosses do a superior job.
If you are a EA fan or collector, however, you wouldn't go wrong in purchasing these although I wouldn't purchase them.
these lipglosses ate super cute and came in the cutest little clutch bag! the glosses themselves are super sheer and glittery but i still love them as they are good for everyday use. they are also great with or without a lipstick underneath.
I was lucky enough to get this lovely set from the beauty vault and I am so happy that I did!
I was really pleasantly surprised by the shades as I had expected to probably pass at least one onto a friend because I did not think they would all look good on me, but they do!
They are really easy to apply and feel so lovely and creamy on the lips. They provide my lips with a really natural and pretty glow. Three of them (Coral kiss, Precious petal and Passionfruit) have a really pretty shimmer, while Royal plum does not. The staying power is really great and they fade away in a really flattering way.
The smell is nice, like vanilla. Overall, I love these and would definitely consider buying the full sized ones.
Tips: I personally found the purse pretty hideous, but that doesn't bother me.
