Urban Decay 24/7 Glide-On Eye Pencil in Rockstar: Swatch & Review

Hey everyone!
I think I was most shocked when I looked in the Cosmo Blog Awards bag and saw this Urban Decay 24/7 Glide-On Eye Pencil in Rockstar (£13)*. I'd never tried any of these liners before but I've heard such great things that I couldn't wait. Of course, if you follow me on Twitter or Instagram, you may know that I picked up a travel set the other day for a bargain from TK Maxx, but I'll be blogging about them soon!

The packaging is fine - the lid slots on properly so it shouldn't fall off if you are carrying this in your bag. A little disappointing that this is a sharpenable eyeliner - it means you waste a lot of product.
 But oh, how the colour makes up for it! Rockstar is a deep, dirty eggplant with flecks of violet throughout and a metallic but not frosty finish. It glides on like a total dream without tugging in the slightest at the eye, and is instantly pigmented and opaque. It has a brief smudgeable period and then it sets. This was actually quite difficult to remove, even with Bioderma and a cleanser. But that does mean it won't slide off your face during the day. And again - look at the colour!


 I'm in love. Are you? Have you tried any of the other shades in this range?

*This product was a gift in a goody bag. That does not change my opinion of the product and my reviews are always 100% honest.

    1. I've heard Zero is a good black but I have Perversion and I'm loving it. I'd really recommend this shade, it's brilliant.
