It looks like an artist’s toolbox, and if you want one, you’re going to have to hurry.
To celebrate its 15 years in the business of making trend-setting cosmetics, Orange County-based Urban Decay has come out with a limited edition set of its amazing 24/7 Glide On Eye Pencils—15 of them, of course, for an amazing price.
Normally $18 each, the set runs $92. Do the math, as I just did, and that’s only a bit more than $6 each—and you get a sharpener in the keepsake box.
But enough about the numbers. What’s important is the quality. These are the best eyeliner pencils on the market. All of the good ones from the marquee makeup lines are made in Germany, as these are, or in Italy. But some pencils don’t work too well when it’s a little chilly. They don’t go on very easily, and you practically have to draw with them first to warm them up and make them work.
Well, that’s where the “Glide On” comes in. These really do. Plus, they sharpen up all real nice—again, like some others don’t. You know, ones that splinter and force you to sharpen down and waste product.
And the colors, they’re all here, except….we’ll get to that in a minute. Along with the go-to Zero (black), this set includes six exclusive new shades. You’ll have your pick of a rainbow of colors with names like Corrupt, Midnight Cowboy, Perversion and Rockstar.
My personal favorite, Yeyo (metallic white) isn’t included here, but that’s okay. As long as Urban keeps it in the line, the eyes have it.
