Their biggest product lineup ever, this shade range has it all – bold brights, moody darks, trendy neutrals and a few “wild cards” too – in six different finishes, including Mega Matte, Comfort Matte, Metallized, Sheer, Sheer Shimmer and the classic Cream. There’s enough variety to make your head spin, from never-before-seen shades to returning cult favorites to colors inspired by bestselling Eyeshadows and 24/7 Eye Pencils. The modern formula, now in a bullet shape, includes the proprietary Pigment Infusion System for super-creamy texture, long wear and rich color dispersion – even the Mega Matte doesn’t drag!

For even longer wear, prime your favorite shade with the coordinating 24/7 Glide-On Lip Pencil; the line is relaunching to include 50 epic shades, with a match for every Vice Lipstick your heart desires. The edgy packaging was inspired by their original lipsticks’ shotgun shell case, but is updated with luxe facets and shade-matched labels.
