LAURA GELLER NEW YORK The Delectables Earthy Essentials Baked Eyeshadow Palette | 14 Pigmented Eyeshadows Blendable Natural Look

This is my first time trying any Laura Geller makeup, and I'm impressed! I chose the Earthy Essentials color palette, and I love every color in it. It's a really nice mix of matte and shiny eye shadows, and I like to wear and combine both. I love the actual kit as well because there is a good amount of each color, and the kit has a mirror and also a magnetic closure. The eyeshadow goes on smoothly and dark, and it's a nice powder, nicer than a lot of others that I have from different companies. It's soft and comfortable to apply. It stays in place all day and doesn't come off until I remove it at night, so it has longevity. I like this kit enough that I'm going to go try some of the other products from this company. This was a great find for Black Friday because I got it at 50% off. This kit is a great value for the money, and I'm happy that I found it.

Soft, smooth application. Beautiful colors. These shadows are prone to cracking and therefore they break and fall out of the tray. Lots of waste.

Quick shipping and good delivery. I chose this palette for the shade range and because it’s a brand I like, and I paid around $12. The only downside is that the matte shades are not very pigmented, they need at least 3 swipes to get noticeable color payoff. The glitter/shimmer shades perform better. Overall decent for the price, but not very strong pigmentation on the mattes.

Versatile colors, easily applied, velvety feel w/great staying power. This eyeshadow palette is such a great choice & the price made it even better! I love that I can swirl & tap when getting the perfect amount of color on my eyeshadow brush. My order arrived & product was as described!

I really wanted to embrace this product from Laura Geller. But, it's very subtle. The pigment is very slight. Luckily, it layers well because you really have to build it up in order for any of the pigment to show. You may need a primer to bring out the color. I use a smidge of vaseline first to help boost the pigment. I'll use this on days when I have plenty of time to get ready, but it's not really helpful for the day-to-day for me. The pigment is just too subtle it's just too much work trying to get any effect. Although I will say it feels like a quality product and the colors are nice, they just don't work well for me. I had the same experience with the baked foundation. I couldn't get a color match without coming off orange. The company was very nice, even replaced the color for me a couple times, but I still ended up with an orange hue. Good luck to others who enjoy these products, they just don't work for me.

I haven't used eyeshadow for years but thought I'd give these matte finish neutral shades a try since I love all my other Laura Geller products. They go on smoothly for layering & blending. Just like her baked foundations, these are weightless, like nothing is on my eyelids. Mirror & magnetic closure are very nice. One color (lower left corner) was broken into pieces on arrival, but it was a simple fix by mixing in a little rubbing alcohol, making a paste & letting it dry. I assume that happened in shipping, but I give 5 stars for product itself. These will be fun!

Well... first of all the product arrived broken, which I know happens but is still a downer. The palette is also in a pretty cardboard housing, not a sturdy click-closed plastic. So it's not going to be portable and will need to use more caution to avoid getting it wet from splashback of the sink etc. So minus1 star from the get-go. I have seen so many ads and reviews that rave about LG makeup! I treated myself over the holidays to two eyeshadow palettes, this pink prosecco one and one called floral. I was really looking forward to products that are supposedly made for aging women's skin. I am so disappointed! First, almost every pan is a metallic frosted, which tends to exaggerate wrinkles and saggy eyelids! I have a lot of makeup that I tried and didn't like very much or felt a little cheated by the cost vs the results, but this has to hands-down the worst ever. It feels heavy on the skin, it didn't blend well, and most of the light to medium shades didn't show well on my "light" skin (neutral undertones,blueish-gray eyes). The darker colors are too saturated and just look like red bruises, there was no neutral brown to use as a liner. That darkest red pan is useless to me, luckily that was the broken one huh. I was forced to use the midtone pink shades as the crease-shadow and lining colors with the lighter ones for overall lid coverage and highlighter shades to tone it down. In the end I felt like the eyeshadow was caked on and much too metallic for day wear, even with a dusting of mineral veil over it. Ok, that's the skin feeling. How did it look? I checked in several light settings. I saw too much makeup, and it was not very flattering. It reminded me of the makeup ladies wore in the 1970s. I will continue to experiment on how to apply it without overload on the brush (I barely tapped my brush on the color, and I tapped the loaded brush on a clean ceramic plate to evenly distribute the color on the brush and not overload the bristles). It was still too much. Worse, the product does not blend or easily spread across the lid, it clung to the first point of contact, and blending it out was a major chore. And yes, I had done all my prep work ahead of application, with a quality eyelid primer. I tried using a clean kabuki brush to blend out or lift some of the color, but wasn't very successful, and had to apply lighter colors over the darker to neutralize. I ended up having to apply mineral veil over it to make it look less garish. It looked and felt like stage makeup, something overly dramatic for my preferences. Why so many metallic shimmer shades? Mature skin does not look great with that. I will very likely return to my tried and true formula of applying a drugstore creme makeup (Revlon!) as a base, and dusting clinique or bare minerals shadows for more dramatic effects. I found nothing in the Laura Gellar products that felt or looked as-good or better than what I've been using, so I'm really puzzled about all the hype for this makeup line. What's the deal? Are all the reviews and the testimonials really honest? I was so looking forward to trying this and feel I wasted a hundred dollars! Once again fooled by marketing! I watched Laura Gellar herself apply the makeup in her videos, and her commentary simply does not match the actual experience. It's not easy to apply, it doesn't feel silky or smooth, and it is not easy to blend. Moreover, this set appears more suitable for a darker skinned person than myself, so it's not universally flattering. Most palette collections are flattering to all skin tones. This pink prosecco is definitely not.

Beautiful great quality large size à great value the eye shadow is so soft going on and it lasts all day its so nice the quality is wonderful I will be buying again. Great value and product! Probably one of the best eye shadows ive ever used.
