Urban Decay Skyscraper Mascara

Average member rating of 8.0
Average member rating
Rated a 6.0
The long silver wand supposedly builds a skyline of lashes in a few strokes. Three levels -- a flattened top, bristled side and corkscrew end -- give equal coverage to varying lash lengths. But the feather-soft formula does a better job defining hairs at ground level -- not hitting penthouse heights. The label claims the shu extract inside is an ancient Chinese herb that helps strengthen hair and deepen its pigment. Sounds dodgy. For real definition, try the less expensive M·A·C Pro Longlash.

February 20, 2008, 8:40 pm After spending many years in the cosmetic business and spending tons of money you can rest at last with skyscraper. Not only does it lengthen but you don't need to wear a primer along with it. So you are getting 2 for the price of one. I do already have good lashes, but this makes them great. I have so many people ask me every day if my lashes are fake. I use about 2 to 3 coats with the flat side down, then I go back and use the thin side to seperate. And my lashes have never looked better!!! February 20, 2008, 8:40 pm

    I have pretty average lashes, not too short or long, and not too thin or thick, so i always appreciate the help a geat mascara brings.

    Not as good as Dior

    by SolsticeSun22 (31 reviews)
    The UD skyscraper mascara goes on smooth and without clumps and is long lasting. However, the brush head and is small so it's good for a daily mascara. If you're looking for a full-bodied mascara, this isn't the one...go with the Dior. May 16, 2008, 12:32 pm

    by chitownchik (83 reviews)

    Love the brush, the formula smudges on me though

    by Sarah613 (17 reviews)
    I loooove the brush in this mascara, in fact I think I will keep the brush around after it is gone. The dual sides of the brush (flat and thick) along with the tip are awesome at getting every lash and lengthening. However the formula like many others smudges and smears by mid morning... I really need to find my HG :( December 2, 2007, 2:42 am

    Good for Short Lashes

    by p458pjm (6 reviews)
    I was unfortunately blessed with short lashes. I've searched for the perfect mascara for many years until someone recommended this. The wand is ideally suited for those with shorter lashes. It goes on evenly and lengthens them especially in the hard to reach corners. October 17, 2007, 9:36 am

    Worth the money

    by irisheyes61095 (7 reviews)
    Of all the mascaras I've tried over the years, I can honestly say this one is one of the best. It doesnt clump and adds length without the spider lash look. It is also very easy to remove and doesnt flake. March 29, 2008, 12:10 pm

      • Manufacturer's Product Description

      • Our lash-lengthening Skyscraper Mascara instantly turns puny lashes to pillars of strength. We worked with a famous European lab to develop the perfect combination of brush and formula. Read on for some fun beauty science!   The custom brush is world-class, built with three surfaces (instead of two) to give you flawless definition and lo-o-ong lashes. First, the flat side of the brush lays down lots of color. (This is the surface most brushes don’t have. Just one extra sweep makes all the difference!) Then the bristle-y side pulls the color all the way to the tips to smooth and define. Last, the spiral tip catches any of those hard-to-reach lashes in the corners. Perfection!   And, Skyscraper Mascara contains an ancient Chinese secret: we’ve infused the formula with Shu Extract, an ancient Chinese herb known to promote health of hair, deepen its pigmentation and prevent hair loss. The formula feels great – your lashes stay feather-soft and the mascara stays put. No flaking, and it’s damn near waterproof.   Housed in a slim silver tube inspired by its name, Skyscraper Mascara rivals all the big names in mascara!
