URBAN DECAY 24/7 Glide-On Waterproof Eyeliner Pencil — Empire (Dark Eggplant Matte), Creamy Long-Wear, Smudge-Proof

This URBAN DECAY 24/7 Glide-On Waterproof Eyeliner in Empire is a richly pigmented, dark eggplant purple pencil designed to provide intense color, a no-tug application, and transfer-resistant wear. Formulated to dry down without smudging, the pencil balances a soft, blendable texture with a durable finish so you can create precise lines or smoked-out looks with confidence.

How quickly does this eyeliner set and stay put?

The formula applies creamy and blendable, then dries to a water-resistant finish that resists smudging and transfer. Expect a fast dry-down that helps retains sharp lines through normal daily wear without frequent touch-ups.

• Up to 16 hours of wear claimed for long-lasting color retention.
• Waterproof and transfer-proof finish for active days or humid conditions.
• Dries down after application to reduce accidental smearing.

Can I create both precise and smoky eye looks with Empire?

Yes — the pencil’s creamy, skip-free texture allows fine, controlled lines and also softens easily for smoky effects. Draw a crisp wing, then smudge slightly with a brush or fingertip before it fully sets for a gradient finish.

• Glides on smoothly for tightlining or defined cat-eyes.
• Blends easily before drying for subtle smudges or full-on smokey eyes.
• Matte finish in Empire provides depth without reflecting light.

What skin-friendly ingredients are included and why do they matter?

The pencil includes conditioning agents like vitamin E, jojoba oil, and cottonseed oil to help hydrate and soften the lash line during wear. These ingredients help the product apply smoothly and reduce dryness that can occur with long-wear eyeliners.

• Vitamin E: helps condition and protect the delicate skin along the lash line.
• Jojoba oil and cottonseed oil: provide slip for easy application and gentle conditioning.
• Cruelty-free formula consistent with URBAN DECAY brand standards.

How do I keep the tip sharp and extend pencil life?

For the best precision, sharpen with a high-quality cosmetic sharpener such as the Grind House Double Barrel. Regular sharpening maintains a clean point for crisp lines and helps avoid product breakage or uneven application.

• Use a cosmetic sharpener sized for standard pencils to keep a fine edge.
• Sharpen sparingly to conserve product while keeping control.
• Store capped and upright to protect the tip and maintain texture.

Who this is for: Makeup lovers seeking a richly pigmented, long-wearing eyeliner in a unique deep eggplant matte will appreciate Empire. It suits anyone who wants a versatile pencil for everyday definition, bold evening looks, or smokier styles — especially those who prefer waterproof, transfer-resistant finishes and skin-conditioning ingredients in their eye products.
