I am obsessed with this color. The purple-red really brings out the green in my hazel eyes. It’s a perfect medium tone that creates impact without feeling stark or overwhelming. I’ve worn it as a sharp cat eye or smudged out on the eyelid, and it works beautifully either way. I’ve also dabbed it lightly onto lipstick to deepen the contrast (this works especially well with the Enchanted Lip Sheer in Water Violet). I think I’ve worn it everyday since it arrived in the mail.

A wonderful addition to the black orb line. A cooler toned purple, I also own Iron and feel this shade is meaningfully different. Works nicely as a wash of color on the lids, as an eyeliner, and with a small brush this formula also makes a delightful lip liner. These aren't the most opaque in one layer, but they're super blendable, so assess your personal needs. This shade does not stain my skin either.

I have only used eyeliner pencils, but I couldn't resist this color. I cautiously pulled my Eyebrow brush through the pot, then drew it along the base of my eyelashes. Repeated till both eyes were outlined. Slipped a bit, not perfect, but I still liked it. Will be practicing more. Might even try it as a lip liner.

I loved the Iron color of black orb, but it always blended out a little too allergies-red on my skintone (rosey, pale, blue-green undertones) unless I did a lot of blending with other shadows. I have been wishing for a cooler version and Twilight is that. Not blackened, still achieves a softer lined look like Iron does, but much more flattering on me. The formula creases on bare lids for me but primer and translucent powder do the trick.

This shade is a bit hard to pin down for me. It is dark with some mauve tones but in some lights I also swear it looks a bit brown. Not as purple or dramatic as the Inky Aubergine. More manageable everyday shade. Would recommend.
