Tom Ford Black Orchid, $75, is a seductive scent perfect for those looking to join a dark side that's less evil (Voldemort's Death Eaters) and more glamorous (think: Clara Bow). In addition to a custom-grown and super rare black orchid, this perfume contains sultry black bergamot, black currant and lives in a gorgeous pitch-black glass bottle with an art-deco feel that is just as luxurious as the scent.
Urban Decay's Perversion Mascara, $22, mascara can be summed up in three words: "Bigger. Blacker. Badder." If you're feeling intimidated by the wand's tagline, you should be. The super creamy formula and intense black color creates a daring lash look that isn't for the faint-hearted. No-makeup makeup enthusiasts need not apply.
Just look to Lorde or New York Fashion Week's runways: Goth nails have never been so fashion forward. You're free to take the former's avant-garde "dipped" take on the mani, but we'd opt for a clean, pitch-black mani that will go with your entire fall wardrobe. M.A.C. A Novel Romance Nail Lacquer in Midnight Sky, $12, for the romantics, Chanel Le Vernis Nail Color in Black Satin, $27, for the sophisticates and Butter London Nail Lacquer in Union Jack Black, $15 for the punk rockers.
Black castor oil sounds sinister, but in hair products, it uses its powers strictly for good. The omega-rich ingredient is a savior for hair that's been damaged by the summer's sun, chlorine and lightening dye jobs. The Jamaican black castor oil in sulfate-free Shea Moisture Jamaican Black Castor Oil Shampoo, $10.99, repairs and strengthens chemically processed hair, while apple cider vinegar removes product buildup and trusty Shea butter leaves hair soft and shiny.
Nars Cream Eye Shadow, in Zardoz, $25, is the secret to nailing any dusky eye look. Smudge the inky cream-to-powder shadow onto your lids to create the base of a dramatic smoky eye, or dip an angled shadow brush into the pigment to rim your eyes in rocker-approved liner.
