The Collection
This Color Set contains all four shades of the Black Orb collection. Together, they capture a full range of unexpected darkness for creative exploration in eye looks.
The Colors
Abyss // The kohl liner you have always longed for: rich, opaquely semi-matte, and the deepest black.
Dusk // An inky blue of hypnotizing richness. Dusk is at once dark and vibrant, smoky and bright. This shade evokes the churning sea, the twilight sky, and precious lapis lazuli.
Cinder // A bold, cool-toned storm gray for looks both subtle and daring. Cinder is at once moody and approachable, nostalgic and ultramodern. This shade evokes ominous storm clouds, delicate ashes, and cold slate.
Iron // A deep, sultry red evoking the depths of blood, wine and rust. Iron is at once unexpected and utterly flattering. This is the long-requested return of a beloved shade, exclusive to our site and to be made only in small batches.
ABOUT THE PIGMENT AND ITS USAGE: Dusk is created with the deep blue of ultramarine pigment. Historically ultramarine pigment was made from lapis lazuli stone ground into a fine powder, and this resulted in the rarest blue pigment used in Renaissance painting. Though it also beautifully reflects the pigment’s hue, the name ‘ultramarine’ comes from 14th- and 15th-century Italian traders referencing its origin ‘beyond the sea’ from mines in Afghanistan.
Like other mineral pigments, modern cosmetics-grade ultramarine is synthesized for safety, as mined pigments may contain notable levels of heavy metals. Ultramarine pigment is approved for use in the United States for eyes and face, but not lips. In the European Union, ultramarine is approved for use on eyes, face and lips.

The Black Orb Enigmatic Kohl Eyeliner casts the deepest shadows, and smokes out into the darkest gaze. This cruelty-free formula is richly pigmented, deep, moody, and dramatic, and can be worn in a wide range of applications. Its mysterious jar invites creativity and allows for greater flexibility in application styles and techniques versus a pencil eyeliner. If you have searched as we did for the perfect inky, moody, dramatic kohl eyeliner, this may move you as much as it does us.
HOW TO APPLY
The Black Orb Enigmatic Kohl Eyeliner is neither gel nor powder, and its crème formula behaves with different properties. We recommend using your favorite brushes for application. For a winged eyeliner look, or a soft cat eye, we recommend an angled liner brush. To create a lived-in smoky look, apply with a smudge brush and diffuse out with a soft-bristled shadow brush like The Eye Soot Brush. With just a bit of practice, it can also be applied with fingertips for a smudgy, smoky and perfectly imprecise application.
The Black Orb is formulated to set without a harsh dry down. To best allow the film former to work its magic, we recommend applying in thin layers to allow the product to set, rather than doing a heavy single application. However, The Black Orb remains workable, which allows for a more forgiving application. The nonvolatile formula also ensures gentle wear on the delicate skin around your eyes. If you have hooded or extremely oily lids, you may wish to dust a layer of translucent powder on top after application to lock it in further.

- RReneeReviewingThe Black Orb Enigmatic Kohl Eyeliner: AbyssI recommend this productRated 5 out of 5 stars2 years agoDefinitely Magic Eyeliner
This is one of the very best eyeliners I have used in my life. You can do so much with it in terms of eyeliner. Smudgy, smoky, liquid look, bold lines, thin lines, finger smudges, you name it lol. If you have the right brushes you can do anything with this stuff. I mean, don't get me wrong, it's not the only eyeliner I use. But I wouldn't be unhappy or feel like I was missing something if it was. (as long as I was supplied with the proper brushes). The makeup I use from Rituel de Fille has changed the game. I can't always carry around makeup to do fix ups. I work in mail sorting warehouse and it's nice to be able to fix my makeup in the bathroom with my fingers real quick. Everything will pretty much re smudge back to where it was if it moved. Plus touch ups don't make things look cakey if you do have your fix up kit on you. This is a great liner though. It does not disappoint. Just don't forget to get yourself a few different types of nice eyeliner brushes if you don't already have them. Well an eyeliner brush and some short bristled brushes. Or whatever you find works for you. Rituel de Fille seems to be pretty great as an all around versatile cosmetic (and skincare) company.

I was looking for some makeup for my wedding and found Rituel de Fille and loved that it imbues nature and magic. The abyss color is fantastic and vegan as well! It layers well and I can use it alone for a wonderful simple look. I'll keep testing out building the depth of black it offers.

Every time I pull the orb out of the drawer in my vanity, I feel the world open wider and my mind move more freely. It’s so black and fundamental.
- VVeroVerified ReviewerReviewingThe Black Orb Enigmatic Kohl Eyeliner: IronI recommend this productRated 5 out of 5 stars3 weeks agoFavorite Deep Red Lip
I have never used this product on the eyes (as intended). Rather, I prefer to use it on my lips. Combined with Blood Thorn lip oil, it is my perfect deep red lip. Stays well, even when eating and drinking, yet easy to take off doesn't stain.
- MGMegan G.Verified BuyerReviewingThe Black Orb Enigmatic Kohl Eyeliner: AbyssRated 3 out of 5 stars1 month agoFeels oily
The packaging and overall “vibe” of this eye liner is super cool and witchy. But the product itself is too oily and smears easily. It makes a nice shadow effect but only after more fussing than a regular kohl eyeliner.
