What I liked:
- creamy texture, glide on smoothly, no tugging

- longlasting, even on the waterline
- don’t irritate eyes
What I didn’t like:
- Gunmetal is quite sheer
- smudge slightly after 8 hours of wear
- the price
As my regular readers know, I love Urban Decay 24/7 Glide-On Eye Pencils. They come in a lot of beautiful and pigmented shades, have a creamy texture that glides easily on the eyes and last long even on the waterline. Unfortunately, they are also expensive so I usually buy the eyeliner sets the brand so often releases and which contain several mini pencils (I can never finish a full-size one anyway). This way, I collected quite a few of them and today, I’ll talk about 3 of them: Gunmetal, Rockstar and Stash. I’ve already written a throughout review of Zero, so I’ll keep this short and sweet:
Gunmetal is a beautiful gray shade with silver shimmers. It is the least pigmented of the three and thus may not show up well on dark-skinned beauties. Rockstar is a pretty deep, reddish purple shade with subtle red shimmers. Because it’s quite dark, it’s a good alternative to black and brown eyeliners during the day too. Stash is my favourite. It’s a stunning olive green with gold accents that makes my green eyes pop and would look even better on those who have brown eyes. Like Rockstar, it is very pigmented. They all have a very creamy texture that applies smoothly without tugging and lasts about 8 hours on me before it starts to smudge, but only minimally.

Summary
Urban Decay 24/7 Glide-On Eye Pencils in Gunmetal, Rockstar and Stash all have a buttery soft texture that glides smoothly on the eyes. They all last long, even on the waterline, and smudge, but only slightly, after 8 hours of wear. Unlike Gunmetal which is on the sheer side, Rockstar and Stash are very pigmented.

I love those little sets!

Vonvon´s last [type] ..L’Oreal’s Goldmine – Want A Share?
Vonvon, they are wonderful sets indeed and the colors are so pretty too.
Oh noooo, these smudged on you? So not cool. Urban Decay is like the only brand of eyeliners who I can wear alllllll day without smudging.
Brittany´s last [type] ..Mascara Monday: Hard Candy Lash Tinsel glitter mascara
Brittany, yes, but only minimally and I’m usually home by then so I don’t mind. I’m glad they don’t smudge at all on you.
Stash is unbelievably pretty! I can definitely see it making your green eyes pop
And 8 hours without smudging is really great in my book haha
Makeup Morsels´s last [type] ..An Ode to By Kilian*
Makeup Morsels, I agree. 8 hours without smudging is very impressive!
Oh, I didn’t realise these pencils came in sets. They look really nice too! I was contemplating on getting a couple before but was a little turned off by the price. Looks like I need to revisit them

Lyn, you should definitely check out these sets when they come out. It’s a nice way to stock up on these pencils without breaking the bank.
I think Stash will really matches your eye color very well
