Foolproof for Smoky Eyes

Senior beauty editor Cristina Mueller is perpetually infatuated with the idea of a smoky eye. ("The dark, rocker-y, penciled-in look," she specifies. "I love the slapdash, sexy smudginess of it all.") But slapdash though this look appears, it isn't an easy one to get right: Lots of pencils she experimented with at first tended to smear and then look messy—and not sexy messy, just sloppy. Then she tried Urban Decay's 24/7 Glide-On Eye Pencil and discovered perfection: It comes in a slew of deeply pigmented colors, goes on creamy and soft, doesn't smudge, and true to its name, lasts all day long.
