THE ARCHIVE // LIMITED EDITION

  • The Color: A muted, fleshy cool-toned mauve
  • First Conjured: 2015, in Feral
  • Inspiration: Wolves in the snow; silent, animalistic carnality

A Muted, Fleshy Mauve

A dense fog obscures the frozen landscape, revealing glimpses of the surroundings with each breath of the cold wind. Each slow, cloudy exhale dissipates into the surrounding whiteness. Footfalls on icy pine needles sound nearby with delicate shatters. Heart rate quickens. Muscles tense. Lips pull back to reveal sharp teeth. The predator advances, powdery snow shifting underfoot with each silent step.

Inspired by wolves in the snow, and quietly whispering with animalistic carnality, Prey is a muted, fleshy cool-toned mauve that perfectly evokes the quiet intensity of the coldest winter.

The Forbidden Lipstick Formula

An intensely saturated, rich and luxuriant lipstick carefully crafted to reveal bold, daring color and impart enduring moisture. This formulation offers a beautifully dense, opaque finish that remains deeply comfortable on the lips.

How to Wear

  • For a bold, saturated finish: Apply Prey directly from the bullet, using the edge to sharply define the lip line for a defined, intense impact.
  • For a diffused, lived-in effect: Pat the muted mauve color onto the lips with your fingertips to soften the edges, creating a moody, fleshy stain.

    The best

    This is a subdued and very cool pink— definitely not your average lip color.

    I wish it was permanent!!

    I wish this color was permanent! I love mixing it with strange creature as well. It’s such a gorgeous nude for me. I hope one day it comes back.

    Lovely muted color

    Great muted mauve shade. Makes the lips look subtly dead for an everyday alternative nude look. Pigment is very opaque and long lasting. Does not budge and feels comfortable on the lips.

    Prey-ing that this stays!

    This is a truly unforgettable color. A cool neutral nude or a Stoney putty color.

    It is my favorite! Goes with just about every color scheme but stands out especially if you are a winter gal. So very happy it made its return in the Archives. Stocked up as it will be a daily color for a while!

    Best Cool Lipstick for Fair Skin

    As a fair cool blonde, I can't express how difficult it is to find the perfect nude. Most are too dark, too brown, or too orange. This is the most beautiful pinky purple gray nude. I am devastated this shade isn't permanent along with the gray. Please RDF, make these permanent shades! There is a serious lack of cool tones in the market that only you provide. PS, formulary is amazing too. Can't even feel it on the lips.

    The best better than lip color

    Bought this lippie before, but actually used it all! It is a stunning, neutral shade without being boring. Beautiful and goes with most looks.
