THE ARCHIVE // UNSEALED SHADE

  • The Color: Iridescent violet opal, a diaphanous glow from within
  • First Conjured: 2021, in The Naiades
  • Inspiration: River mermaids and forest nymphs

The Creation // Iridescent Violet Opal

Evocative of freshwater mermaids and forest nymphs, Sylvanshine is a stunning iridescent violet opal. We created this shade to be at once bright and diaphanous, luminous yet silken. Named for the radiant optical phenomenon of beams of light illuminating dewdrops on leaves, it merges beautifully with the skin, leaving you with an ethereal finish that appears to be glowing from within.

Ethereal Luminosity

Inspired by extraordinary light phenomena, we formulate Rare Light Crème Luminizer with a skin-supporting jojoba oil base that melts seamlessly into the skin. It imparts a subtle yet opulent highlight that subtly shifts and transforms to reveal a remarkable depth of color, bringing your complexion to life every time it catches the light.

How to Glow

Our favorite way to apply our crème highlighter is with the fingertips. The warmth of your skin helps the formula blend flawlessly.

  • For a classic radiance: Start on the apples of the cheeks and blend up to the temples. Tap a touch onto the inner corners of the eyes and the Cupid's bow.
  • For a dramatic highlight: Apply to all the high points of the face where the light naturally hits: the bridge of the nose, the chin, the brow bone, and the forehead just above the arch of the eyebrow.

Application Tip: To get the most dimensional payoff and preserve your base makeup, always pat the highlighter onto the skin in a gentle tapping motion, rather than wiping.

    Very cool highlight

    This is the most unique highlighter I have ever found. It's very pigmented, but so sheer and very buildable. I like being able to wear a small amount for a subtle in-office look or be able to build something more dramatic the rest of the time. I prefer this creme formula as it does truly melt in. Powders are never finely milled enough; I have never been able to get the same effect with one.

    I warm it slightly and apply with fingertips. I don't think it would apply well at all with brushes or sponges.

    Ethereal, gorgeous, wearable

    Writing this review in the hopes that this becomes a permanent color.

    This is the flattering, unusual, slightly witchy highlighter of my dreams.

    I feel like Tinkerbell when I wear this!

    I had not yet tried a Rare Light Crème Luminizer from RdF, but when the special vault selections from The Archive were released, I was captivated by this color and kept coming back to it. So I decided to splurge, not really knowing when or how often I would be able to wear this, realistically. I was pleasantly surprised when I received it, as it is actually quite versatile. As I am discovering with all of the RdF products, you can apply them faintly so they display a sheer hint of color, or you can layer and build up to something stronger and make a more dramatic statement.

    I have been wearing this almost daily since I received it, which I never really anticipated, as I thought it would be a "special occasion" item. It also adds a nice glow to fresh, clean skin when you don't want to wear a full face of make-up but you want some glam to peek through. I am already making a wishlist of which colors I want to try next.
