Name: 24/7 Glide On Eye Pencil in Eldorado, Electric and Mildew
Brand: Urban Decay
Size: 1.2g
Price: €18,00

From Urban Decay’s website:
Never before has a pencil this creamy and brilliant been waterproof, too. Velvety-soft, this never-before-seen formula stays soft and creamy for blending (about 30 seconds), then dries down to a long-lasting finish that WILL NOT budge. Line eyes with a hint of color or go for the full artistic, multi-hued effect with the wide selection of lush tropical hues, deep metallics and unusually vibrant neutrals.

What I liked:
- available in lots of colorful shades
- very creamy, glides on easily
- pigmented
- doesn’t irritate eyes
- lasts long, even on the waterline

What I didn’t like:
- smudges slightly after 8 hours of wear
- the price

As my regular readers know, Urban Decay 24/7 Glide On Eye Pencils are my favourite pencil liners. They are available in lots of beautiful shades and today I thought I’d talk about three of my favourites: Eldorado, Electric and Mildew.

Eldorado is a beautiful and warm yellow gold color. I love applying it on the waterline cos it really brightens up the eyes and makes me look more awake when I’m tired. Electric is one of my favourite eyeliner shades ever. It is a light blue that is very, very bright and summery. It is simply gorgeous and would add a touch of fun to any look. Mildew is a mossy green eyeliner and looks particularly good when paired with brown eyeshadows.

The pencils have a very creamy consistency that glides easily on the lid without tugging and have excellent color payoff. Once applied, they stay put for about 8 hours on me before they start to smudge but only minimally. They last for a good few hours on the waterline too and don’t irritate nor sting the eyes.

Available at: Sephora.com, Ulta.com and Beautybay.com

Summary
Urban Decay 24/7 Glide On Eye Pencils in Eldorado, Electric and Mildew are three beautiful and fun shades that will add a touch of color to any look. They have a very creamy consistency and last long both on the lid and waterline. However, they are quite pricey.

Rating: 4.5/5

LOVE all three of these shades, I don’t even think I can pick a favorite. It’s good to know these last, I’m always worried about staying power with such a creamy product.

Makeup Morsels, they are all gorgeous, aren’t they? And some of the most longlasting eyeliners I’ve tried, even on the waterline.
