Urban Decay 24/7 Eyeliners: Loaded, Mainline, Invasion, Sabbath, Abyss, Chaos Reviews, Photos, Swatches
Urban Decay Loaded 24/7 Glide-On Eye Pencil
Urban Decay 24/7 Glide-On Eye Pencils ($19.00 for 0.04 oz.) now include these four shades in the permanent range: Loaded (dark green shimmer), Mainline (deep green/blue matte), Invasion (deepest dark green matte), Sabbath (deep navy matte), Abyss (bright metallic blue shimmer with blue micro-sparkle), and Chaos (vibrant cobalt blue matte with slight floating pearl). Out of these six, Loaded, Invasion, Abyss, and Chaos are entirely new, while the other shades have been released in exclusive sets/kits.
Loaded is a blackened green with very subtle micro-shimmer. It looked a bit faded in a single stroke, but it looks greener and more intense with built up. I don’t think it’s as intense as the eyeshadow, though! Make Up For Ever #20L is lighter.
Mainline is a subdued, medium-dark blue with a hint of teal and a matte finish. It had good pigmentation in a single stroke and layers well. MAC Practice Makes Perfect is similar but has a touch of shimmer. bareMinerals 1PM is slightly tealer.
Invasion is a blackened, cool-tone green with a mostly matte finish. It had so-so pigmentation in a single stroke, but it layered to mostly opaque color. Prescriptives Blue Grotto is lighter. Make Up For Ever #4K is greener.
Sabbath is a bluish-purple with a mostly matte finish. It is very creamy–more so than other shades–and always looks a bit more satiny when layered. It had good color payoff in one stroke. La Prairie Midnight Blue is bluer. Chanel Marine is slightly bluer and pearly.
Abyss is a medium blue with silver sparkle. It had fantastic color payoff in a single pass, and it was easily layered (though it wasn’t necessary). Urban Decay Deviant is slightly darker but similar. Urban Decay Radium is just a touch darker. Tarina Tarantino Glamorous Thief is slightly darker.
Chaos is a brightened periwinkle blue with a mostly matte finish. This looks startling neon in the pencil, but it appears more subdued applied. It had so-so color payoff when applied in one pass but layered to mostly opaque color. Korres #13 is lighter, bluer. I couldn’t think of any other similar shades.
Some excellent reading: Green-Teal Eyeliner Comparisons, Blue-Teal Eyeliner Comparisons, Navy Blue Eyeliner Comparisons.
I’m testing Invasion and Chaos today, so for longevity, the rating is based off of my prior overall experience with Urban Decay’s formula. If there are any significant problems, I’ll be sure to update this post to reflect them. I generally see wear around eight hours, sometimes as long as ten, with little to no fading and no migration/smudging. The consistency of Urban Decay’s formula is a combination of waxy and creamy, so the pencils definitely glide on without pulling or tugging on the skin, but some require one back-and-forth pass for more opaque color payoff. These six were actually rather pigmented and only Loaded and Chaos needed more than one pass for good color.

I was really excited to see Loaded as a pencil but, to be honest, it’s disappointing in that, once applied at the lashline, I don’t think it will look any different than any other blackish or dark green pencil. Invasion looks really nice, though.
Yeah…Chaos and Sabbath will definitely be going home with me. I don’t have anything like Chaos on my collection–and I love periwinkle blue! Sabbath just looks awesome. I can definitely see how much creamier it is compared to the others just by the swatches–it looks very rich and pigmented too!
I quite like the look of Invasion for myself!
All the colors seem gorgeous except for Chaos. Doesn’t seem to be a flattering color to any eye color. Will you be taking pics with some of these eyeliners on? I’m curious to see how Chaos would look on the actual eyes!
Chaos will probably look good on women with darker skin and eyes. I’m African American and I’m really liking it. I’m also thinking of it as a base color for light blue and light purple eyeshadow looks.
The entire 40 (set) is online now. You have to go to the set section to get it on UD website.
Thanks so much for the super timely review, Christine! I picked up the two I wanted: mainline and invasion. I can really see myself loving mainline in particular–it’s sooo freaking gorgeous–and so I’m pleased to see it’s an excellent performer. Yay!
My two favorite ones as well and you beat me to comment on them!!!! Ditto on everything you said. As I scrolled down the swatches they were the only two that caught my eye.
Ahhhh I love Invasion! I have quite a few green eyeliners already, but nothing like that one. I hope they release a set with some of these new colors sometime soon. I’d love to pick up a couple at once without having to buy them individually. And sadly, the Vault with all of them is out of my price range 🙁
I feel like Lancome’s deepwater blue kohl in love and Rimmel scandaleyes in blue might be good substitutes if not dupes for Chaos.
You sold me on Abyss. So pretty!
OOoo I love Chaos
FINALLY! I’ve been needing Mainline as an independent and permanent liner for the longest! Woo!
Love these colors! I’ll be picking up Invasion and Sabbath ASAP.
ooh, Sabbath looks gorgeous in the ‘built up’ sample. So happy I ordered the vault, can’t wait to get it and play with all the colors!
Which of these eyeliners would look good on blue eyes?
Try Loaded!
Sabbath…you’re gonna be mine. 🙂
I expected Chaos to be brighter, like the eyeshadow. too bad it doesn’t live up to my expectations.
Scratched Loaded off the list 🙁
But mainline & invasion will be mine!
I want every single one of these. I am so sad they only sold 50 sets of the Vault.
I wish Chaos was more intense though.
i like all beside the first and the last ones because tho they look hot in the pencil, they don’t look that impressive on the skin
You know I’m addicted to teals and darke green blues when it want to get Loaded, Invasion, & Sabbath. Also ready picked up Mainline from the smoked collection mini. lol
I love Sabbath and Mainline, I only have black and brown eyeliners so I think these colors will be a good pop of color for when I don’t want to do a full eye makeup look in the summer (it gets up to 108 here and it’s just not worth the effort)
Nice! I’d like Abyss or Chaos for lower lash line.
I wonder how close Chaos is to the Stila Perriwinkle out right now. I’ve been lusting after that color and now this, so I need to know if I should pick one or get both 😉
I really like that there’s a lot of matte colored pencils in this relaunch. Their only mattes up to now were the two black ones. And the ones in this swatch set are sooo pretty.
Wasn’t one of the older browns matte?
Lovely! The 24/7 Eyeliners don’t work wonders on my lids, but I really like the look of Sabbath and Chaos — the former looks so gorgeously dense in colour, and despite the latter’s weaker pigmentation, I’m kind of a sucker for periwinkle blues at the moment.
And I don’t think I own any, so it’s a completely (completely!) justified lemming, of course 😛
so disappointed in chaos! 🙁
Have you tried these on your waterline? If so, how do you like them? Omg Abyss or Chaos would look glorious on the waterline at some summer music festivals coming up!
