Urban Decay 24/7 Glide-On Pencils

[Brittany88]

I've had Zero for about a week now. I'm really impressed with the staying power of these liners. My only issue with them is that they aren't able to be sharpened to a finer point. I have small eyes and if I don't use a light hand, my top liner can take up half of my lid.

Definitely not the look I'm going for, as it makes my eyes look smaller.

i loove 24/7 liners! i have zero & just got lust.. gorgeous dark/metallic purple. they are so creamy & glide on great. they have great staying power; just use a primer first! they stay even better applied on top of primer, then on top of your eyeshadow. as for the waterline, they do smear/run over time, especially in the outer corner.

if you're having problems with the staying power of these liners, i suggest trying the new tarina tarantino liners. great color selection & those babies STICK! even my makeup remover didn't remove it all!

Get the Urban Decay Grindhouse sharpener! It is SERIOUSLY amazing. It's quite pricey for a sharpener you'd think (~$8USD I'd say? I paid $10CDN for it) but it sharpens my 24/7 liners like no other.

I have four of these; Zero, Bourbon, Lucky and the bright blue color.
I cannot get zero or bourbon to show up on my waterline! It's very frustrating. I mean, i got those two with the BOS, so no money lost, but still. Ive heard raves for the waterline usage, and nadda!

I do LOVE lucky though. Such a pretty colour.

I'm not a big eyeliner fan, but I was convinced to give UD 24-7 liners a try when I swiped them on the back of my hand and had a hell of a time getting them off. My sister got me Zero for my birthday and it was the FIRST TIME EV-AR I was able to line my waterline and have it look great without irritating my eyes in the slightest. I love how easily it glides on too.

I bought 1999, but it was too shimmery and I had a Mac liner that was similar. I don't care for shimmery liners cause I have trouble seeing them in the light. Are there any non-shimmery ones you guys recommend?

I love these. Not quite as 'stay put' as fluidlines but when I want the speed and convenience of applying with a pencil rather than a brush these are pretty darn good. Zero is my must have because I wear black all the time. Bourbon is okay - a bit sparkly though and for some reason this one melts off my eyelids a lot more than the others. Flipside is pretty but I kinda wish I'd gotten electric instead - seems to be a bit more vibrant. I also have binge which is lovely for a not so shocking sapphire and mildew which is pretty but I dont wear too often. Im still pondering 1999 and really want Deviant and Covet at some point but $20 each is a bit much - even more than Fluidlines! Anyone else notice you go through a pencil pretty fast too just because they're so soft?

I was just wondering what sharpener is best to use with these pencils, i tried using a regular sharpener which is great with my wooden pencils but it just seems to sharpen the plastic barrel of these and left the lead exposed but blunt (didn't shape the lead at all if you know what i mean.

Hopes you all know what i mean, I'm not the best at describing things.

Thanks in advance.

Wait until the holidays, UD always has mini sets of their most popular colors around that time. They had 5 mini pencils for $30 and a 9 pencil sample set for the same price last year. The 9 pencil set had smaller pencils but it's a great way to try some colors you wouldn't normal consider and at an awesome price point.

I was just at sephora today and got zero and electric. I cant wait to try them. Ive been hearing so many good things about them and the blue one was beatiful when i swatched it on my hand.
btw was i the last to know that sephora is in jcpenny now? lol.

I really love the UD eye pencils. I have a lot, and have repurchased zero before and have bourbon and also a golden brown. I had the huge pack of them at christmas for a discounted price, and even though it was good for money at RRP. The colour range is amazing, and the lasting power is really good. My few gripes at them is if you don't sharpen them correctly it can destroy the pencil, secondly the performance on the waterline let them down a little bit. But they are definatly worth the extra money from drugstore liner, and are often in the three for two deals at boots, making them really good value.

UD has a sharpener for the 24/7 pencils- it's the Grind House sharpener. It's a dual sharpener that can also be used on the 24/7 concealers sticks. Sephora has it for $9. It's a little pricey for a sharpener, but it definitely does the job!

I have 2 fullsize Zero's, I just can't fully let go of my "gothness". I love it, have for years, sooo creamy and soft and blendable. They stay well for me. Sometimes at night I need to take a tissue to my waterline, as the colour can melt to below my lower lashes.

I got this year's Jackpot set. I haven't owned an eyeliner in any colour other than black. So swatching Whiskey on my hand made me a very very happy girl. I also ordered the 15th Anniversary set, and I cannot wait until it gets here.

24/7 pencils get a solid thumbs up. My friends are always borrowing them or using them when we get ready for a night out.

I absolutely love these liners i have 4 Zero,Yeyo,Covet and 1999 great for the waterline and they really do last alday

 

[iheartangE]

These are my favorite liners!! I have...way too many of them actually. I've got a couple of Zeros (one full-size I bought that's now a teeny weeny nub and then 3 that came with other palettes), Whiskey, Bourbon, Stash, 1999, Lust, Covet, Electric, Baked, Lucky, and Yeyo. And I just brought Deviant home with me today...I may have a sickness.

Also I am DYING for the 15th Anniversary set...like I cannot WAIT until I finally get my hands on one. I had to work when they had that 4 hour preview on Cyber Monday and I'm so bummed! I know I have 5 of the colors already but it's still worth it for the 6 exclusive colors-I am so excited for Midnight Cowboy, Asphyxia, and Perversion!

 

[2browneyes]

Anyone have a clue as to when the 15th Anniversary Set will be released? TIA

 

[Flaminbird]

I keep looking at their site since Jan1st and this morning it showed up on their first page but when I clicked "shop now" it went to a page that said "it's no longer available" so I dont know if it's a website problem or what. It wasnt up there yesterday as of 11pm but was at 9am this morning

Update....I just checked their site again and this time it went to where you could order it so thankfully I was able to do that . I'm guessing they were working on their site because other new items that showed up went to the say "not available at this time" page when I clicked on it.

 

[2browneyes]

^Thanks....checking the site now

 

[Flaminbird]

YW. I hope it doesnt sell out too fast so you can order it.
