Urban Decay 24/7 Glide-On Pencil Review


Hello you wonderful readers! How are you? Today’s review will be on the Urban Decay 24/7 Glide-On Eye Pencil. I originally purchased this product from one of the Shopper’s Drugmart in my hometown. It came in set, which contained the eye pencil in Zero (can be described as a carbon black), the same type of eye pencil in the shade Ransom (deep eggplant), as well as a bonus Grindhouse eye pencil sharpener. I should have posted this earlier, but I wasn’t feeling well last week, which knocked my whole schedule out of orbit. Well, on to the review!

Urban Decay is known for their high quality, cruelty free, vegan –friendly, products. That may have been a mouth full on its own terms, but it’s purely good stuff. I have a ton of eyeliners, I won’t lie, which automatically makes me an expert on this subject (kidding, don’t own THAT many liners). 

The liners are enriched with jojoba oil, which means they will not dry out and turn waxy like other liners I have tried. These pencil liners glide on smoothly, and effortlessly, and do not tug on the delicate eyelids. They are easy to smudge, within the first minute or so, and then the liner will not budge afterwards, which is a plus. Usually, with waterproof eyeliners, you can never get the product to be able to do both. 


 I really admire the fact that the pencils are creamy, and highly pigmented,so you do not have to apply a lot of pressure, when lining your eyes. The picture below, is my eyeliner, after wearing it for about 12 hours, and it the line is still opaque. usually, the liner will start  to fade by the end of the day, or even start to smudge down to my lower lashes. I did not have this problem with these eyeliners, and I am truly impressed. 

Another great feature, is how easy it is to remove at the end of the day, with my makeup remover. Yes, this is a waterproof product, butt I found that it could be whisked  away from my eyelids, without a lot of effort. This is a great feature, as it saves you a lot of time, when removing your makeup.


Now, it's time for the verdict! This product is effortlessly easy to use, without any hassle: no messy smudges, no fading, and no disappointment. These are some of the best liners that you can come across, so please consider trying them out if given the opportunity.  You can buy this wonderful eye pencil duo, ( which have a few other colour combinations), from Shoppers' Drugmart ($30 CAD), and the other respectable establishments. I hope you enjoyed my review, thank you for reading.






Happy Spring
