Love love love love love

Why did I wait so long to try these pencils from UD? I got Electric (bright blue) as part of a sample program, and it sat in my makeup drawer for months before I worked up the courage to try it on. Even though the shade is shocking, it actually looks great on (fair skin, brown eyes). I got several questions as to what I was wearing and where I got it and many compliments. It applies like silk ...read more- just glides on without tugging or little pieces falling off because the pencil is so crumbly. It dries incredibly quickly, so you do have to work fast. You've got enough time to blend before this pencil sets itself in stone. This is the first pencil I've found that lives up to its claim of hour wear. NOTHING will budge the color until you choose to take it off. I love that. No more under eye cleanup or crease blotting during the day to deal with migrating pencil or shadow. No primer is needed when using this either, which helps save a bit of time on rushed mornings. The best part is the range of colors these pencils come in. Everything from daring to demure and they all look amazing on. I've always leaned toward a more neutral or soft makeup style. These pencils have helped me incorporate color in a fun and very wearable way. I luckily got a set of these from Sephora when they first came out and wish I had gotten another set or two. I use as both eyeshado and eyeliner. UD pencils are a bit pricey, usually $18.00 a piece. But for the color payoff, length of wear, color saturation (which means you only need a little for a huge impact) and perfect consistency, you won't go through these like you would a typical eyeshadow/eyeliner pencil. I have some colors that I use daily and after almost a year still have 3-4" left. You really get your money's worth!

Completely worth the money

I got the set of 5 that was on sale awhile back, and these eyeshadows are amazing. They're typical, amazing urban decay products. They're really nice and shimmery (don't get them if you're looking for matte) and are EXTREMELY pigmented, as well as creamy. The only reason I didn't give a 10, was because they were a little tough to blend.

Love them!

Ok but, Urban Decay has killed it in the makeup industry since they’ve took it by storm! These shadows are to die for! They aren’t greasy, glide on silky smooth and lasts for hours! Perfect if you plan on dancing your butt off and still want to look good!

uhhhgg

these are ridiculous. when you blink, which normal ppl do, it just smears into the creases of your eye. it looks awful and it makes your eyelid feel like it is sticking. not a great feeling .. ill stick to powder

The best

I grew up with two older sisters who were always my inspiration. I watched my oldest sister throughout her highschool years and admired her beauty. She always wore urban decay down to her toes. The high pigments appealed to the cyndi lauper inside of me! Little did I know that the quality of their products would be unparalleled. I turned onto makeup at 13 and havent looked back 8 years later. Thes...read moree pencils have been my go to for everything. I love to layer them with the midnight cowboy shadow. The rich hues appeal to me and they stay on for the entire day! Its amazing and i love their simple black color zero as well. My favorite is the color mildew since its bring out the green in my eyes but there is truly something for everyone. please purchase this if you need a great quality eye liner!

Awesome colors and they LAST

I recommend this eyeliner to ALL of my friends. I wear the demolition and the rockstar color on a daily basis and they are dark enough to wear to work without being overly purple and yet if I want to go from work to a night out I put on a bit more and use a brush to create a smoky look. They are easy to apply as well and do NOT dry out.

Nothing Better

These are really lovely and well worth the price. They glide on smooth and lasts through just about anything (In reason) and they have lots of color options.
