Review: Urban Decay 24/7 Glide-On Pencils
I have quite a few of these pencils, some from palettes and some from an eyeliner set. These are the only 2 I have at this house. The rest are at my parents house with the majority of my makeup collection. The first one is Uzi a medium grey with silver sparkles. The second is Zero which is the standard black eyeliner. They look quite thick on the swatches but I haven't sharpened them in a while.
These eyeliner are super creamy and easy to apply. There is a huge range of colours available if you are a bit more adventurous. They are absolutely gorgeous. I have a green, blue and purple and a few different browns.
My favourite one is Demolition, a beautiful dark brown. I even bought the full sized version of it. The ones in the picture are about half the size of the normal ones.
As you can see from the pictures, they are really pigmented so you don't have to try to build up layers to get a good colour and as they are so creamy, they don't pull on your eyelid. Also they blend really well which is great if you like to do a nice smokey eye!!
There is one bad thing about these though. Because they are so creamy, they don't always stay put, especially if you have greasy eyelids like me. I usually apply a little bit of an eyeshadow of the same colour over the top to help set it in place. I've found this to be effective in stopping it from sliding down my face!! Also I had another problem with Uzi. Because it had shimmers in it, I found it irritated my eyes after a while when I wore it on my waterline. Other than this though, I've found them to be really, really good.
They are a little bit pricey. For the full sized one, I paid €18 but they are much bigger than a standard eyeliner and they are such good quality that even I (a cheapskate) would be willing to pay the price!!
Let me know what your favourite eyeliners are!!!
Talk to you soon!!
