I’m not kidding when I tell you that holiday launches are already rolling across my desk! Doesn’t that seem a little crazy during the first week of September? Nonetheless, I like what I see so far, like the new Ocho Loco 24/7 Glide-On Eye Pencil Set from Urban Decay. Ocho Loco contains eight shades of the famous eyeliners that really do glide on, and last all day! Four of these shades are new and exclusive to Ocho Loco, and the set also comes with their Grind House double barrel pencil sharpener.
Urban Decay Ocho Loco 24/7 Glide-On Eye Pencil Set
Just in case you’re not familiar with the 24/7 Glide-On Eye Pencils, they’re creamy and vibrant long-lasting waterproof eyeliners. Over the years, I’ve purchased a ton of them, and as of today there’s an impressive comprehensive lineup of 24 shades available for individual purchase! Among my favorites—Perversion—truly the blackest black liner I’ve ever owned and I highly recommend it to anyone who is in need of a new black eyeliner. (If you end up not buying this set!)

One thing I like about the 24/7 pencils, is that they give you a little time to move around before they set. I’ve been known to smudge them onto my lids like a cream shadow because they last all day when worn that way, with a minimal amount of creasing. (Super oily eyelids may break the color down a little faster when worn that way.) Since they’re so creamy, you really do need to watch for smooshy pencil tips! So just make sure not to apply too much pressure, or the tip will likely break. The good thing is, they don’t require a lot of pressure for pigment payoff, but some of the shades are lighter than others. LSD is my fave new shade that’s exclusive to this set, but I wish the navy base color was just a little more intense!
In terms of value, this is a REMARKABLE deal. Full size 24/7 pencils retail at $19 each, and the Grind House sharpener is $10. With Ocho Loco retailing at $59, you are saving $103 off of retail. Crazy, right? No wonder it’s called “Ocho Loco”!

Bottom Line…
This is a killer deal on eight full-size Urban Decay 24/7 Glide-On Pencils! I’m loving the four new colors and the inclusion of Perversion and the Grind House dual sharpener. If you have the cash to spare—I recommend this one. It’s darn near perfect, if only LSD was a little more pigmented!
