I love this eyeliner! I am not good at using makeup but I use this every single day, I have pale skin and black would be to harsh for everyday so I use this instead... It looks exactly the same at the end of the day as it did in the beginning and I will definitely repurchase this when I run out!

This pencil made me fall in love with eyeliner pencils again. Normally I use cream liners, but sometimes I want the convenience of a pencil. Demolition is a great dark-brown matte shade, not too red or so dark that it looks black. It applies easily, stays in place until I take it off (and I need eyemakeup remover to get it off), and looks great. I also like the fact that the creaminess of the formula makes it easy to get very close to the lash so there's no telltale line between lashes and liner. This is my new go-to daily liner. And I like this one so well that I bought Mushroom and Despair. I'm looking forward to trying those, too!

This eyeliner is part of my everyday makeup routine. Because black liner is a little harsh, Demolition is the perfect alternative for us fairer skinned brunettes. It smudges easily, which depending on how you're wearing it could be good & bad, the color lasts all day, and the pencil lasts a pretty decent amount of time for the price. For me, it's great for quick & simple liner.. not great for creating cat eyes or doing anything fancy. I sharpen with the Urban Decay little purple sharpener (which by the way is great even for the $10 price). I definitely will continue to buy this product!

This eyeliner is mediocre at best. It smudges when it applies and does not last very long before wearing off and looking even more smudged than when first applied. Definitely not a good choice for someone with oily lids. The pencil does not sharpen well, which defeats the purpose of having a pencil eyeliner, IMO. The one positive is that ithe 24.7 eyeliners come in a wide variety of colors, however I would not repurchase. .

I like this brown pencil but I don't think I'd buy it again... There's nothing that is making me love it so much to buy a 19 dollar eye liner again.. I may buy the Avon mega Impact one, I'm pretty sure it's about a third the price.

I really like the quality of this product. It glides on smooth and lasts all day at my waterline. However, just as other reviewers have said, I have to sharpen this way too often. That equals more wasted product. It is almost impossible to get a fine point so don't even consider this is you are planning to create fine detailed lines. For the price I would expect it to last but I think I will save my $$'s and go back to the drugstore for comparable cheaper products.

I absolutely love the Urban Decay 24/7 pencils, they are without a doubt my favorite. The color Demolition is a very nice dark matte brown that is cool toned, so it's very wearable. I always wear eyeliner on my waterline and this is my go-to color when I don't know what else to use. With a few coats it stays put pretty well. I love how soft it is, but it's kind of a disadvantage because it makes sharpening it really difficult. The tip will break off or crumble oftentimes, but I don't use it for fine detail work so it's not a big deal to me. I highly recommend this product, it's just great.

I am a blue eyed NW10 (NW20 when tanning from a bottle).

I have not experienced any transfer to my upper lid or fading while wearing, even after a 10 hour day with no primer. Only complaint is that the pencil is almost too soft, because it crumbles a little up sharpening and is hard to keep at a very fine point. Otherwise, great formula.

I have several pencils that are this "dark matte brown" color, but Demolition stands out because it's cooler toned than the others and less harsh against my pale skin.

Awesome dark brown liner - dark, matte, not too red-toned.
This is the dark brown color that I was hoping to get from Bourbon, Whiskey and Corrupt. However while I like each of these, they were all either too light or two red-toned for my coloring.

I'm so happy that Urban Decay made this a full sized permanent color (earlier this year?). It's my go-to dark brown eyeliner when I want something other than black or a dark color. It works well with my fair skin, light brown hair, and greenish-hazel eyes. I like to use it with gold and brown shadows and lots of black mascara.

This product is not worth the 19 dollars. It doesn't last on the waterline. It smudges. I do love the color though it's a nice matte dark brown.

I really like this eyeliner. It was my first of two. So far, the Urban Decay 24/7 is kicking the drugstore eyeliner's a$$. lol. This colour is perfect for my fair skin and light blue eyes. Black looks too severe for an every day look. However, this dark brown adds softness to the definition of my upper lashes.
The eyeliner is very pigmented and has great colour payoff. It is easy to use and glides effortlessly across your eyes. There is no tugging or pulling involved. Also the line is easy to work with in regards to smudging out or brushing into your lashes.
As for the endless sharpening. If you buy the Urban Decay sharpener for the 24/7 eyeliners, it takes care of that problem. I am not sure why, but it just works like magic on these pencils. It is very soft and tends to break in other sharpeners, hence the endless sharpening. However, in the Urban Decay sharpener (which is inexpensive) this does not happen. The pencil comes out sharp after a minimal amount of sharpening.
Finally, the eyeliner wears very well. Especially if it is combined with UDPP. It lasts all day or all night without smudging or wearing away. Thus, I gave it four lippies. I took away one lippie because of the price. However, after trying to drugstore brand (which does not compare to the 24/7) it may just need another lippie. I will update. AND, I will definitely be repurchasing!

Love this eyeliner! I am pretty fair, and cannot wear black eyeliner as it always, always makes me look gothic. I discovered this liner last week. I used it with a smudge brush which makes a big difference. I never usually wear eyeliner either, so this is definately now in my makeup routine.

i'm stunned by all the negative reviews for this pencil! i thought i wanted the 24/7 in Perversion, a super dark black, but when i tried that one on, it looked way too severe. Demolition is a rich brown-black (like NARS Coconut Grove e/s) that gives me a flattering, dramatic look when i want to play up my eyes. plus, it stays on all day without fading or transferring onto my crease. the only drawback is that since this pencil is so soft, it can be difficult to get a crisp line, hence the 4 lippies rather than 5.

This is defintely my go-to dark brown eyeliner. Since I am very fair, black looks very harsh on me. It glides on well and stays on all day.

I was so happy when UD came out with a non-shimmery brown eyeliner. I liked Bourbon, but the shimmer not so much. I really enjoyed Whiskey when it came with the Naked palette. I was hoping that Demolition would be something similar. Demolition is a deep brown which is okay. It's a lot like MAC Coffee. The staying power is okay when set with powder. I use MAC Handwritten. It's an acceptable brown pencil but I was expecting a little more.

I don't understand why this product isn't getting more love. I normally wear black liquid eyeliner but I'm loving using Demolition with my more natural makeup looks. I really like the dark matte brown and best of all, it stays in place all day!

Ugh, I really don't like this eyeliner... I just don't feel like I'm getting any value out of it. I like this colour because it is really dark, but I feel like I have to sharpen it WAY too often and also I waste so much when I sharpen it because its really soft. I've heard some people like to put it in the fridge for 5 minutes before they sharpen so maybe I will try it out.

It also does not last very long in my opinion, even though I use the Primer Potion under it. Also, don't even bother using it to line your water line :(

I'm dissapointed because I paid $18 for something I could have easily found at the drugstore.

I was so excited to see a non-shimmery brown finally available. I typically use Bourbon; love the brown tone, but am not a fan of the sparkle, so a new brown that was more matte made me buy it straight away. The formula was perfectly wonderful (as usual with the 24/7 eyeliners), but the brown was WAY too dark for my coloring (like with the prior reviewer). Pity. I really want more matte color choices in the 24/7 eyeliners (other than just the black shades and Rockstar). Or, if Whiskey could become part of the permanent lineup, that would at least be a start imo.

I'm NC35ish, dark hair, usually wear Black liners. Demolition is Dark Brown, matte, glides on very creamily (is this a word?) and is VERY soft which is great because there's no tug or resistance when I use it to line directly against my lash line, but is heartbreaking because it runs out so quickly & sharpening is a disaster. But anyway, this is perfect for days that I don't need an intense black liner, but still want to look pwetty. I like.

This is a very dark, neutral brown that would be great on someone with darker coloring than me (I'm blond with blue eyes and fair skin). On me, this was too harsh, even on my upper lid. I love the formula of this, though - soft and creamy, but lasts forever. Also, having to sharpen these is a pain - yes, I'm lazy. Maybelline's new Master Drama automatic eye pencils have an identical formula to urban decay's but you don't have to sharpen. And, they have a softer, lighter brown that I love. Check these out if Demolition is too dark for your skin.
