Urban Decay 24/7 Glide-On Pencils

[LP_x]

OMG my pencils arrived today. I bought both sets - VIP and Velvet Rpe. I defo wanted VIP but was undecided on Velvet Rope. I am so so sooooo pleased I bought both - and, unbelievably, Velvet Rope is my favourite set!! They're so gorgeous. I swatched them on my hand at lunchtime and have been working all afternoon, and they're still as vibrant as when I first applied them. They're fantastic and an absolute bargain. For anyone who hasn't got them, GET THEM!

They are both great. I think the UD ones are more glittery. I have the turquoise one in both lines and when I swatched them they were the exact same color. However, after they sat for a few minutes, I COULD NOT get the MUFE one off. The UD one rubbed off w/ much less effort. Both were resistant to watter. HTH!

Can anyone compare them to NYX eye pencils?

Does anyone have Dime? Is it as gorgeous as it looks in swatches?

 

[dominichulinda]

I love the UD liner!!!..nyx doesn't compare :/

I have the VIP set, but I REALLY want the Velvet Rope set. Like now. Sadly I don't have access to a Sephora so I'll have to wait...somehow...

I LOVE THESE PENCILS! I have such problems with smudging but these absolutely do not budge. SO smooth.

From the VIP set, my favourites are definitely Electric and Lucky. Electric is such an intense, bright blue that is perfect for adding a great pop of colour. Lucky is seriously perfect...I thought it was the one dud in the set at first when I saw it online, but it is one of my favourite! For some reason Lucky glides on the easiest and is super pigmented, and shows up darker on the eyes. Very metallic, glittery tarnished copper colour that would look fab on blue eyes (and even on my dark brown eyes, haha). I wasn't as impressed with Lust, I was really hoping for it to be more vibrant and a bit lighter.

OMG AND...UD's coming out with FOUR new colours.

I wonder how Flipside is different from Electric. I REALLY WANT Graffiti and Ransom, especially if Ransom is a more vibrant, lighter version of Lust!

I must have Ransom!

I have Dime!
I love it, and wear it all the time, but I must say that it's not as bright and metallic as I'd expected.
I wear it on lower lids only, and on me(NW15, brunette, green eyes), Dime shows up mostly just gray.
If I go over it a few times, it shows up more silvery, but an opaque silver flash it isn't.
It may just be my skin tone.

I heard that!
I got Lust for Christmas, and while it's pretty, it's a darker purple than I'd expected.
I'm thinking that I, too, may "need" Ransom.

Gawd, another lemming. *slinks sheepishly off to UD's site*

 

[vikitty]

Oooh, the new ones look AMAZING.

 

[GlamQueen21]

I love my Urban Decay Eye Pencil in Zero! I should get a backup of it in case I run out. Also I want Ransom and Graffiti!

 

[LP_x]

Oooh I want the new ones!!
Does anyone know if they're DCing any before the new ones are released? I'm making it my mission to own every colour of these babies

 

[Asphyxia]

I bought both mini sets and I absolutely loved them so much that I went out and bought the rest of the colors. I definitely want the new colors.

I am thinking of buying the VIP and the Velvet Rope travel set after this thread! There's so many raves in this thread - just curious if there was any negatives about these pencils. I did a search on MUA, and some people said they had a problem with smudging?

I am NC15 and have green eyes

Would you repurchase?

Yeah, what I want is a bright silver metallic color!!!

There are very few negatives, at least that I find, with the 24/7 pencils.
They're on the expensive side ($16 USD, a bit steep for a pencil)
They're very soft, so it's difficult to get a very fine line.
They're tricky to sharpen.
They *may* smudge minimally without primer on super oily skin like mine.
Over all, they're terrific, though!

 

[vikitty]

I find that popping them in the freezer for a few minutes makes them easier to sharpen.

 

[LP_x]

I honestly have no negatives for these pencils. I won't ever purchase a MAC one unless it's a shade that UD doesn't do. I adore them. I thought my Feline was the shizz but oh boy was I wrong! I

these.

I broke down and ordered the VIP liner set from UD.com. I'm supposed to be done buying makeup for a bit, but I couldn't help it - the way everyone raves about these made me want to try them. And I love that the metallic white one is called 'yeyo'
