What turns your crank when you hunt for new eyeliner? Is it the colour that makes you nab it off the shelf? Does the brand make you go gaga? Or do you prefer something tried-and-true? For me, the kohl must glide on buttery-smooth and, above all else, it must have a deep, rich intensity—the richer, the better. Otherwise it’s impossible to get Kate Bosworth’s gorgeously intense, rimmed eyes–an everyday look I absolutely adore. When Bourjois Paris’ new Khol & Contour eye pencils slid across my desk, I immediately popped off the cap and drew a light line across my hand. The result? Exactly what I crave: Densely pigmented and ultra-smooth. Darkly rimmed eyes, here I come.

Bourjois Paris, Khol & Contour eye pencil, $17. Launches this month in 6 colours exclusively at Shoppers Drug Mart and Pharmaprix.
