If you loved the Urban Decay 24/7 Black Velvet Glide-On Eye Pencil you’ll adore the fact Urban Decay has created a 24/7 Velvet Glide-On Eye Pencil Collection featuring give new eyeliner shades with a velvety, matte creamy texture done up in sultry, smoky shades for the Fall 2014 season!

Urban Decay 24/7 Velvet Glide-On Eye Pencil bring together a more matte, drier texture which will be a smashing hit for those with oily lids as they feel more like an eyeliner powder versus a gel eyeliner pencil texture.

Take a look!

Truly these take velvety to new levels as the formula is creamy but still has a matte, drier finish that works great with smokier looks when you just want to leave the shimmer behind for a night.

I happy to be a massive fan of Urban Decay Perversion but Black Velvet is just as incredible a shade in terms of pigmentation and the same holds true for the new shades.

These have a velvety, more powdery formulation when compared to the original 24/7 Collection. The drier texture has a little more density but is still very creamy and provides a no tug application. I think the velvety matte textures makes for excellent smokiness as they don’t really smear the way the original formulations do but provide more of a smoky powdery smudge out! The pigment is fab on all five of the new shades and rivals that of the excellent color pay off of both Black Velvet and Perversion. I find they wear all day for me without smudging or smearing and remove easily at the end of the night. Personally I think they’ll be great for those with oily lids since the texture isn’t as slick as the original.

Far be it for me to be excited about something lacking in shimmer but the Urban Decay 24/7 Velvet Glide-On Pencils are an eyeliner that fit right in with my Fall regime when smoky eyes are all the rage! These are essential shades you’ll likely use daily whether you’re smudging happily away or just doing a killer cat eye.

About the Muse

Isabella MuseIsabella is just an average everyday geeky girl who doesn’t blend her eyeshadow correctly, wears too much blush, and hopes she never finds her holy grail products because she likes the thrill of the chase so much. Her mission is to bring you super honest reviews on makeup, skincare, fragrance and all things beauty. She’s in no way an expert on the topic and she sure as hell isn’t a super model. But she’s passionate about makeup and is seeking like-minded individuals that like pina coladas, getting caught in the rain, and ones that enjoy spending hundreds of dollars at Sephora without feeling buyer’s remorse.

    Love this look. I’m a huge fan of dark blue liner on the lower lash line with a neutral eye. Fingers crossed that they come out with an olive & a taupe and maybe a travel set or two.

    these look so nice. i don’t typically prefer UD eyeliners because of the shimmer in a lot of them and them tending to fade quickly in my waterline. i’m going to give these a try though since they are so matte and rich looking! how amazing would these be as mini’s in a set around the holidays?! *swoon*

  • zFashionizta

    I like the green and navy; I promised myself that I wouldn’t purchase any more eyeliners but I might just cave and get these.
    Thanks for the heads up.

    Cult is alright but Minx is calling to me. I just have bad luck with pencils. I wish Maybelline would re-release their blue and green gel eyeliners.

  • Sandy

    Please tell me that these last on the waterline for longer than 2 hours!!!

  • telle

    BAM! MUSE! Fantastic eyes! LOVE it! And that blue velvet liner is *bang* on! will be adding to my arsenal of liners!

  • Ashley

    WOW. These look absolutely fantastic on you!!
    Do you happen to know if these rival Pixi’s lasting power?
