UD's Junkie 24/7 Glide-On Eye Pencil, described as a metallic teal shimmer with gold micro-sparkle, is $19.00 USD of WORTH IT. The color is gorgeous and so unique. Is it blue? Is it green? Is it sparkly? Does it have the subtle intrigue of Ariel's tail? Yes! All of the above! Junkie is one of the most interesting (and pigmented!) teals I've come across. It glides on like Crisco. No tugging, skipping, or swearing! ;)
The creamy consistency will have you fearing a mid-day case of the creasies chorus line, but you have nothing to fear with this bad boy! I struggled to remove it (after a full day of wear on oily lids) armed with a Clarisonic, Olay Fresh Effects cleanser, and fierce determination. Ok, ok, maybe fierce determination is a
bit dramatic since truthfully, I just washed my face like I do every night. I wasn't thinking this would be hard to remove as the usual one-two punch of a brush and cleanser removes most of my eye makeup. Not this little champ! I looked in the mirror and honestly? It looked
untouched! My eyebrows shot up. I was impressed! I removed it easily with L'Oreal Clean Artiste Waterproof & Long-Wearing Eye Makeup Remover (AKA "the green one") and a cotton ball, so it isn't one of those products that has to be chiseled off. But will it outlast April showers, summer humidity, autumn allergy eyes, and the dreaded "Wintry Mix"? You best believe!
If you have watery eyes or just tend to tear up at heart-string tugging TV shows, books, and movies, you may want to check out a liner from this extensive color collection (40 shades!!!!!) because it's definitely waterproof!
My Rating: A+
Where to Buy: Urban Decay
LOVE it! I love a good teal liner! I think I need to take a look at these new shades they have!
ReplyDeleteThe subtle intrigue of Ariel's tail: that's exactly what I think of when I see a beautiful teal shade! Junkie is gorgeous on you! UD 24/7 has a great formula, though it smudges a tiny little around the outer corner after 8-9 hours. It's still one of the best formulas I've ever tried though, so I can't complain :)
ReplyDeleteSuch a gorgeous liner x
ReplyDeleteIsn't it?! It's so multi-faceted! :)
ReplyDeleteHa ha! Yes! A fellow Ariel lover! I agree, it's pretty damn close to perfection. I'm also partial to Mushroom!
ReplyDeleteYes you do, Tracy Tick-Tock Tamales! That's your rap name, btw! I'd love to see all of the liners on you and see what you would do with them! Have you seen that Mother Lode thing?! It's 68 full-sized UD shadows and a 4-pan palette. And it costs about $600 USD! Yowzas!
ReplyDeleteWaaaaaah, I love it I love it I love it! I really need to try some UD eye pencils...
ReplyDeletehahah "$19 USD of WORTH IT"!!! I was actually looking at these the other day at Ulta and was not sure if I should be spending that much on a glittery liner. But this says it all... I MUST go back to get some!
ReplyDeleteMuch Love,

If you love liners and can swing the Ocho Loco 2 set, you should totally get it! It's 8 liners for $59, making each eye pencil a little over $7 bucks apiece! That's the same price as a drugstore liner! They are all so good! :)
ReplyDeleteYeah you do!! They have a holiday offering called Ocho Loco 2, which contains 8 liners for $59 USD, making them all roughly $7 USD, which is a crazy good deal! You would LOVE Perversion - it's jet black, long-lasting, creamy dreaminess!
