Bourjois 2-In-1 Khol & Contour Eyeliner & Eye Pencil – 004 Brun-Dépendante
The Khôl & Contour pencil from Bourjois is a 2-in-1 essential that pairs the smooth, creamy texture of a khôl with the precision of a contour liner in one convenient tool. In shade 004 Brun-Dépendante, it delivers a rich, warm brown that defines the eyes with a matte finish and impressive staying power. The formula glides effortlessly, giving you an intense, one-stroke payoff for both inner waterline definition and outer lash-line shaping. Clinically tested for safety and comfort, it’s designed to be gentle on sensitive eyes and suitable for wearers of contact lenses. This is a versatile dual-use pencil that makes quick work of day-to-night eye makeup, without the need to switch pencils.

Shade Notes and Finish
004 Brun-Dépendante is a rich, medium-deep brown with warm undertones that provides a natural, wearable definition. The finish is matte, which helps create clean lines as well as soft, smoky effects when blended lightly. The color payoff is strong from the first stroke, making it suitable for tightlining the upper lash line or lining the outer edges for a more pronounced frame. The formula holds color well without an overly glossy look, lending a sophisticated, everyday-appropriate vibe. The product is designed to be versatile: you can achieve a precise, controlled line or, with a quick smudge of a fingertip, a seamless, diffused smoky effect.
What Makes This Product Stand Out
Unlike single-function pencils, Bourjois’ 2-in-1 Khôl & Contour is engineered to deliver strong pigment and long wear in a single tool, reducing the number of products you need for a complete eye look. The dual-application approach supports quick refinement—define with the contour side and sharpen with the khôl for inner-lid depth. The formula is gentle enough for sensitive eyes and safe for contact lens users, with a composition that respects the delicate eye area while delivering bold color. It’s also designed to resist shifting throughout the day, letting you skip touch-ups during busy schedules.
Who Is This Ideal For
Ideal for daily makeup wearers who want reliable definition with minimal effort, as well as makeup enthusiasts who enjoy experimenting with a quick waterline pop or a smoky lash-line look. It’s a strong choice for those who want a two-in-one tool that eliminates the need to carry separate khôl and liner pencils, and for anyone seeking a matte-brown option that flatters most skin tones and eye colors. The shade Brun-Dépendante is particularly versatile for neutral eye palettes and office-friendly looks, while still delivering enough depth for evening occasions.
How to Use
- Trace a clean line along the upper lash line for precise definition with the contour side.
- Apply along the lower lash line or waterline to intensify the eyes; use a light touch to avoid awkward tugging near the waterline.
- For a softer, smoky effect, gently smudge the line at the outer corner or along the lower lash line with a finger or a soft brush after applying.
- If you prefer a sharper edge, let the product set briefly, then tidy the line with a spoolie or clean fingertip to refine the finish.
- Use the khôl end to fill in and intensify the waterline for dramatic definition, then use the contour end to shape the lash line for a balanced look.
Note: The formula is dermatologically and ophthalmologically tested and is designed to be gentle for sensitive eyes and contact lens wearers, making it a dependable choice for a wide range of users.
Why You Should Choose This

Closing note: Bourjois 2-In-1 Khol & Contour Eyeliner & Eye Pencil in Brun-Dépendante 004 is crafted for quick, precise eye definition that lasts. Its creamy texture, matte brown payoff, and dual-use design help you create everything from a clean, office-ready line to a softly blended evening smoky.
