Urban Decay 15 Anniversary 24/7 Eye Liner Pencil Set Review


Urban Decay has some great products and this set is one of them. I have loved the 24/7 Eye pencils since buying my 1st set which was the holiday set from a few years back. The liners do last a long time (12+ hours on my eyes). I use them in my professional and personal kits. They are creamy and do not tug on the eye. What makes this special over purchasing the liner separate ?


1) You get 15 liners and a Sharpener for $92(US) compared to $17(US) per liner. I got mine for even less due to a coupon with Sephora.(less than $6(US) per liner.

2)You get 6 exclusive colors that UD currently does not sell outside of the anniversary set.

3) You get Perversion which is better than Zero....Perversion is blacker.(I love Zero, but I wish UD would make Perversion permenant.)

4)The box is great for storage.

5)I did not find the smell from the box offensive. It smelled like regular packaging to me.

I may even purchase a 2nd one for the LE colors.

NARS Turquoise-Gold-Brown/Bronze














I decided to play in my NARS eyeshadows today. They are not being used as much as they should. NARS eyeshadows are very pigmented and come in nice packaging. Last color I picked up from Sephora was Tropics, a very beautiful Matte Turquoise with silver glitter. It is not too glittery to me. I usually tap off my brush and get a more matte or satin look. Below are pictures of a look I created and also the products I used. I hope you like. :)

  • NYC Translucent Powder #742A

Lipsticks, Glosses and more...

Open lip products.
All lip products that are not open/used.
  • I love MAC and love makeup in general, but sometimes you have to know when to cut back. With the economy being the way that it is and the fact that cream and liquid makeup doesn't last as long as powder and mineral, I plan to not buy as many lippies for the rest of the year. Plus I decided I can't open more that what will fit my holder(14 lipsticks and 28-30 glosses) :0(
  • MAC Euristocrats II collection has beautiful colors but I have many lip products as the photos show. I planned to purchase Milan Mode, Naked Paris, and Patisserie lipsticks. Since I have similar colors to those I passed on them. I did purchase Via Veneto which is a light violet dazzle glass with blue pearl and is Limited Edition. I love the color and sparkle of this dazzle glass and it goes great with Lavender Whip(which I have a backup of).
  • Years ago in one of MAC's Holiday collection, they had a beautiful pink, that MAC has yet to recreate(until now???). Urban Decay Hotpants lipstick is a close dupe and I am halfway thru that, so I plan to pick up Color Crafted lipstick thru b2m program. From what I can tell Color Crafted l/s looks like the same one from that holiday collection. The color is one of my favorites and a must have. Lip glasses from the Color Craft collection sound and look nice.... I may pick up one(pink or purple), Other than that no lippies for me. Saving rest of b2m for Love That Look eye shadows.
