Spotted: Essence Vintage District LE

Hey guys!
Today I have Essence's new Vintage District LE to show you!
This LE contains 3 eyeshadows, 2 gel eyeliners, 2 lipgloss and lipstick duos, 1 blush, 4 nail polishes, 1 top coat and 2 nail art decoration kits. All products can be seen here *click*.
The eyeshadows come in the shades gray, blue and peach, and they have a pretty pattern on them which consists of colorful patches. Unfortunately there weren't any testers, so I can't tell you how pigmented they are.
The gel eyeliners come in a set with a brush, one shade is teal and the other gray. Not so much my colors, but they didn't look bad!
Next, the lip duos. You get at product with at one end a lipgloss, at the other a lipstick. One comes in a light peach, very orange-toned actually, and the other one is a strawberry red shade. The lipgloss and lipstick are always color-coordinated. I bought the latter one, called 02 Antique Pink. The lipstick part is matte and rather squishy, not all that opaque but very wearable. The lipgloss is of a very similar shade, it contains a tiny bit of shimmer but you can barely tell that. The both work well together. The scent is like a mix of sweetness and soap, not all that good, but it kind of reminds me of the scent of the old lipglosses from the Secrets Of The Past LE from November 2009, do you remember these? Anyway, I can't wait to try this lip duo! It was 2,95 Euros.

The blush was the thing I immediately picked up when I saw the counter, it's so pretty! It's of a matte coral shade with a gorgeous floral stamp on it, it's called 01 It's Popul-art. The stamp has a golden overspray, it looks like it's gonna fade after a couple of uses. The peach seems to be very wearable and pretty for spring, the shimmer is almost too much for me to wear! It was 3,25 Euros.
The nail polishes are all somewhat boring, standard shades, I did not like a single one of these.
The top coat is supposed to be a gel look top coat, not interesting to me.
Last but not least, the nail art decoration kits. Each contains 5 different types of jewels, glitters and stuff like that. They're all super pretty and I bought both of them, 01 something g-old, something new and 02 designer for a day. Can't wait to try them out for nail art designs!
After all, I'm a huge fan of this LE! It's super pretty, all of the products look great and work well together, what else can you wish for? Oh, yes, that there's also good quality. I'll find out during the next days :)
What do you think of this LE?
