Bourjois Regard Effet Duochrome Eyeliner Vert Dore` Review & EOTD

Imagine its springtime in Paris & you were to meet this handsome eyeliner at Avenue des Champs-Élysées and after catching your eye he introduced himself' "Je m'appelle Bourjois Regard Effet Duochrome Eyeliner Vert Dore" chances are you'd flutter your eyelashes and marvel at his accent but that name?! Phew!! it was quite a mouthful ! What is with Bourjois's super complex French names?

Tongue twister names asides,Isn't it the most gorgeous eyeliner pencil ever?!! I totally love the beautiful ombre effect of gold & green on the pencil.
The pencil contains1.17 grams of product,though sharpening means product wastage, this pencil is relatively easy to sharpen. The tip holds firm while sharpening so you can get a decently pointed tip. The liner itself is creamy enough to go on without tugging the eyelids. It stays on for 5-6 hours comfortably on my oily eyelids and watery eyes.The eyeliner has a shelf life of  18 months and costs INR 330/- its a tad pricey for a drugstore brand but considering how long eyeliners last & unique shade I don't mind the price much.

The shade is absolutely unique and the gold & green duo chrome effect take humble eyeliner to a whole new stratosphere.Here are the swatches on NC 45 skin clicked indoors with flash. The eyeliner is even more captivating in natural daylight.

And as promised here's the eye makeup look of the day, a very very simple daytime look.Hope you guys like it :)


By the way best of luck trying to pronounce the eyeliner name, I'm yet to come across a single Bourjois SA who got the product names right!! LOL But I love Bourjois products so I'll still be back for more :D

XOXO comment  tell if Vert Dore has made to your lust list yet?

  9. This is a lovely Post post! Je vais dire 'enchantée'. :P The color is lovely, but I don;t feel I would be able to oull it off :(
    Btw, wanted to ask, how is it you click with flash, yet the photos never wash out? Can you share the trick please?
    However intense my eye makeup is, it never shows up in flash and I cannot do justice in daylight
