New Urban Decay 24/7 Glide on shadow pencils

Urban Decay has introduced its next generation of 24/7 pencils for eyes: 24/7 Glide on shadow pencils ($ 20). They're crease-proof and waterproof, and the color is extremely lengthy.

Shadow pencils deliver saturated, creamy color Payout with a lightweight feel. The new fat shape allows you to cover large areas faster. Use Thin tip as eye liner, or side of the tip as a generous a swipe of eyeshadow. Luscious shades with shimmer, cream and sparkle surface materials, gives you plenty of choice. You can skip the shadows you use with brushes, when you're on the go. Urban Decay pencils makes it easier than ever to change your eye shadow, after you have left the House.

When color from pencils set retain it put. I was surprised by how long the color is. Even better, all shades of gray are free of paraffin wax, mineral oil and paraben.

I purchased two 24/7 Glide on shadow pencils from Sephora. I had to try Midnight Cowboy, one of Urban Decay most popular shades. I wanted to see how it had translated beige with silver sparkle in this pencil. Turns out the better, in my opinion, than the original. I bought also Lit, golden bronze-more gold than bronze. I was not up to try some of the brighter, more colorful shadows, like morphine (pale Lavender), bird (light turquoise) or Narc (mossy green), even if I develop an appreciation for morphine while I was in hospital [wink].

Here is a swatch photo taken indoors. I do not blend the shades at all, after I have used them heavily with pencils. I took the picture in full sun. Midnight Cowboy at the top is a rose gold on my skin. I think it's gorgeous. Lights up, is below, almost antique gold. It has bronze in it, but not enough to make it look "dirty." I love both shades; the screaming, full color processing.

It took quite a bit of scrubbing and long-wear makeup remover to swatches from my arm. That bodes well for all day wear on the blink. I have not worn either outside the House yet. I think I may look strange in physical therapy in full makeup. It is an "athletic" environment.

If you like vibrant color and easy program, I think you will love these Urban Decay pencils. They are available on both Urban Decay online and Sephora.
