Urban Decay 24/7 Shadow Pencil Stash for Holiday 2011

The holiday season always brings a plethora of limited edition colors and value sets and this year is no exception.  Urban Decay usually has a couple sets of their awesome 24/7 liners, but this year they added a set of 24/7 shadow pencils.

24/7 shadow pencils have the same formula as the 24/7 liners, which means they apply easily with a soft, silky, highly-pigmented formula and once they set they last ALL DAY. By that I mean 12+ hours.  I haven't personally tested them for more than that, but at 12 hours there was no smudging or fading.  Superhuman!


This set includes three neutrals and two bright colors.

Delinquent

Delinquent

Delinquent is a gorgeous cool purple.  You know how some purples run red, making you look like you've been crying?  This isn't one of those purples.

Clash

Clash

The other bright, Clash, is a very pretty light aqua.  I'll probably just use this on the lash line because although I adore color, I do have limits.

Rehab

Rehab

Juju

Juju

Sin

Sin

Rehab, Juju and Sin are the neutrals.  None lean particularly warm or cool so they should look good on all skin tones.  These are great for a quick daytime eye - just apply, blend, and don't worry about it fading over the day.

Shade 

Late afternoon sun

The set retails for $34 and includes five 0.88 oz pencils. Normally each 0.1 oz pencil retails for $20, so this is a real value.  Additionally, Juju is unique to this kit and can't be purchased on its own.


Bottom line?  If you like easy eye makeup that lasts and a good value, get this!
