Urban Decay 24/7 Glide On Eye Pencil "Ransom" Review and Swatches



I guess we all agree that Urban Decay knows how to throw spark in our eyes through its 24/7 Glide On Eye Pencil that has a large selection of color from metallic bright fun to wearable natural shade like matte brown, copper or black. They provide 40 permanent colors and sometimes they launch a few brand new limited edition colors mixed with permanent colors in set. We can choose any attractive shade that we want to play as well as the finish. I was captivated by the beauty of Ransom, its bright purple with pink and blue reflection is unique and cute but sad news for you who haven't seen or tried this color because it's discontinued from their permanent line.

Ransom is not sparkling, not exactly matte either. The pigment is sheer and it needs to be layered to build the intensity. It has waxy texture that glides on lids easy. And it feels comfortable to wear in waterline. It can be smudged before drying.

Thing to be noted -  some eye pencil products on the market are really easy to transfer (usually the drug stores product) and some are not. And Urban Decay 24/7 Glide On Pencil is categorized as the product that has great staying power especially under the normal circumstances. But for some people who have crazy greasy eyelids like mine, we always have problem with any eyeliner pencils. Whatever the brand that we use -  it tends to drag into eyelids or lower lash lines. But how messy the transfer is, it depends on the quality of the product itself. The migration of Ransom is not that messy compare to Etude Styling Eyeliner.

In this case, i have tips for people with oily lids. Do not wear eyeliner pencil by itself. You can improve its longevity by applying it over a good eye primer.

Price
IDR 270.000

Pros

  • It is safe for waterline 
  • The color is cute and different
  • The staying power is great

Cons

  • It has to be sharpen 
  • It is less pigmented

Overall, Urban Decay 24/7 Glide On Pencil Ransom is a unique eyeliner color that gives a soft sheen
and recommended for waterline. Needless to say, this color shouldn't be discontinued from their permanent line.
