Urban Decay Double Team Special Effect Colored Mascara Review & Swatches

Just in time for Festival Season! Urban Decay is livening up our eyes with Double Team Special Effect Colored Mascara. A totally different take on colored mascara, Double Team Special Effect Colored Mascara provides a HUGE pop of color on lashes and brows. The cream shades deliver intense color payout, and the metallic shades provide a hit of multidimensional sparkle. If you are COACHELLA weekend two bound you will want to toss one or all of these in your travel bag!


Like the name suggests, Double Team packs two shades in every tube, and comes in five must-have duos. (Trust us, you’ll want them all.) Four of the duos feature a bold cream shade on one side and a matching metallic topcoat on the other. The other (Dime/Goldmine) has two metallic topcoats in one tube (silver and gold).


We’re taking the colored mascara trend to the next level with super-vivid colors and metallic finishes. With Double Team, you can make the look as subtle or as dramatic as you want. Wear one shade of Double Team (sans shadow or to complete any eye look), or mix and match multiple shades. Our thick, curved fiber brush separates and coats even tiny corner lashes.


Gone are those colored mascara's that do absolutely NOTHING. With Double Team the color on the outside of the tube is the color that you get on your lashes. The brush coats each lash perfectly and with two coats I had full color impact on my lashes. For the most intense color result, start with the cream color side and then layer the metallic shade for the second coat.

This mascara is seriously budge proof and smudge proof. It's a lot like the formula of the TroubleMaker Mascara. Acting like a waterproof with out the damage. It took some serious makeup remover just to remove the swatches, it is not going anywhere!

Take color to the next level with UD's go-to liner pairings of 24/7 Glide On Eye Pencils  in complementary and contrasting shades. The combinations really make the color of both your liner and lashes pop!

Dime/Goldmine (the silver and gold topcoats) were really freaking cool! You can use alone for a flash of multidimensional sparkle, layer them over your regular mascara, or try them over one of the other colored mascaras for a more dramatic effect. I like putting them just on the tips of the lashes.


I love colored mascara because they are such a versatile way to use color. Go heavy and it's super 80's/raver/festival vibes or do a touch of color just to bring out your eye color. You can also use these in your brows! Are colored mascaras anything new? No, but they are perfect for Festival season when you want a bold fun look and don't want to sweat off your eye makeup. My pick is Deep End, the metallic sparkling teal is crazy flashy! Pair these with one of the new Hi-Fi Shine Cushion Lipglosses and spritz yor face with some All Nighter and you are living your best festival life!
