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.

    I prey you pick up this shade!

    This color is seriously, the PERFECT cool toned nude! I have been on the search for over two years for a color that was close to my natural lip shade, and I finally found it! If you are a cool toned babe, get this shade. You will be so happy.

    A surprising favorite

    I originally got a sample size of Prey before committing to a full size because I was curious how this would look and after trying it I had to get a full size. The formula is really nice, it applies very evenly and its comfortable on the lips, it does transfer but its a creamy formula so I was expecting that. The color though is such a surprise, its an extremely muted rose, its almost grey, but it doesn't wash me out or look unnatural at all (for reference I have cool undertones). I was expecting this to be a more unusual or grungy lip color but it actually works well as an everyday nude, at least with my makeup style.

    A favorite

    Prey is a beautiful grungy mauve cool tone lipstick that I love!! Builds up nicely or is a great sheer color for a natural lip shade. Also nice to apply with your fingers for a wash of color. My favorite RdF lipstick so far!

    My daily lip!

    I love this shade so much. I keep rebuying it. It's such a fun neutral, with a touch of pink, purple, and grey. I am such a big fan of an understated lip, and this gets comments from others all the time. It doesn't dry out my lips despite its nice matte appearance.

    Neutral mauve

    I was looking for a lighter version of Conjurer for time when I want a more subtle look. While this color is definitely more neutral, I find myself reaching for Carnal more often. I may try layering with a lip oil to bring more warmth into the color.
