Bourjois says: High definition and long wearing lip liners for ultra comfort. Its ultra soft Kohl tip draws a smooth yet precise lip contour to line the lips and prevent your lipstick from from running for hours on end. Enriched with mineral and plant pigments (rose and green tea) it is good for your skin. The formula is easy to blend, comfortable and glides smoothly on lips, leaving a soft velvety finish.Available in a wide range of shades that match the Sweet Kiss Naturel lipstick colors.Bourjois Levres Contour High Definition Lip Liner is new addition to my makeup stash. I went on to buy these as Lip Liners give great definition to your lips especially pout, and makes your lipsticks lasts longer.Now Coming to the review, Bourjois offers an amazing shade range of Lip Liners matching their Sweet kiss Lipsticks. I picked up this shade from Slassy.com for everyday wear. Bourjois lip liners come in a colored wooden pencil form that is hygenic & convenient to use. I really like the packaging except for the face that its not very soft to sharpen unlike Bourjois Kohl & Contour eye pencils that are quite easy to sharpen.

The texture of the lip pencil is smooth, but not buttery soft, hence, it does not break during application. It is well pigmented and a single swipe gives opaque color. As the finish is matte, these tend to accentuate the dry or chapped areas of the lips so one should apply a lip balm underneath or scrub your lips using a toothbrush. On dry lips, these might settle on fine lines. I use this all over the lips as base and top it with a clear gloss or warm-tone lipstick.This shade tend to stay on my lips for 4-5 hours but application of lipsticks and gloss prolongs the wear time to 7-8 hours.this particular shade stains the lips and you need to use a good makeup remover.  

Brun Auburn 21: is a very pretty rust color with orange undertone. Great for everyday wear. Gives a nice winter look to the face. It works well as a base for my warm toned lipsticks. Would suit mostly on Fair to Medium skin beauties.

What I like about the Bourjois Levres Contour High Definition lip liner ~ 
  • Absolutely matte
  • Convenient to use and Hygenic
  • Soft and smooth texture
  • It is nicely pigmented and hence covers any pigmentation on lips
  • Contains mineral and plant pigments which are good for your skin
  • They are very very long-lasting. Sometimes I just apply these Lip liners all on my lips and top it with a sheer lip-gloss and the color stays on my lips for 7+ hours with light meals. The darker shade somehow leaves a reddish tint on my lips
  • They are super creamy and glide on the lips like butter. *Gosh, mouth starts watering*
  • Prolongs wear time of lipsticks
  • Does not settle on lips
  • Bourjois offers almost 12 shades of colors
  • These are available almost everywhere including Online and Outlets
  • Waterproof and bleed proof
  • Easy to locate due to colored packaging
  • Great price for a great product.
What I dislike about the Bourjois Levres Contour High Definition lip liner ~
  • can be drying on lips, and tend to settle on fine lines
  • pencils are not very smooth for sharpening
Final VerdictBourjois Paris Levres Contour lip liners are wooden colored lip pencils. The texture and pigmentation is fairly good and the liner has a matte finish. It can be worn alone with a clear gloss or under lipsticks to prolong the wear time of lip products as well as prevent bleeding and smudging. It settles into fine lines and lips need to be moisturized well before application. The shade Brun Auburn (21) is a lovely rust shade that works as base for all warm toned lipsticks. These liners are priced at Rs 240 and are great value for money.Highly Recommended for Fair to Medium skin tone.
