What can I expect Creature of Light to look like on my skin?

The effect that Creature of Light imparts is subtle but unmistakable, which is why it is so beautiful when worn either with or without makeup. The finely milled, translucent iridescent pigments will add a soft glow. The carrageenans from elkhorn sea moss will subtly smooth and lift. The moisture from snow mushroom will gently moisturize and plump. The effect is like a subtle glamour spell: refreshed and luminous.

What skin types is Creature of Light suitable for?

Creature of Light is truly for all skin types. We recommend it for dry, combination, oily and normal skin alike.

How do I select my perfect shade(s) of Creature of Light?

While this is a complexion product, there isn’t only one right shade for you. We developed a range of shades for versatility on many complexions. We encourage you to explore and experiment and pick the shades you wear based on your mood or overall makeup look.

If you are ever uncertain in any shade selection, we always offer Color Consultations. If requesting one for Creature of Light, we also recommend noting your desired effect or overall look so we can help guide you.

Is Creature of Light a makeup or skincare product?

If we had to choose just one, we would say makeup. However, Creature of Light is made in a serum formulation and created to care for your skin.

How is Creature of Light different from other glow products?

This remarkable formula is in a class of its own. Its serum formulation contains numerous skincare actives and botanicals that gently moisturizes, blurs and smooths.

Creature of Light strikes a perfect balance of luminosity that allows it to be enjoyed with or without other makeup. It imparts a visible, transformative radiance, but is not glittery or frosty. The effect is subtle but stunning.

How can I use Creature of Light in my beauty routine?

Creature of Light is formulated to be used every day. Use it as a primer–after skincare but before other complexion products–for a subtle glow. Apply it as a foundation topper for even greater luminosity. Or, on makeup-free days, apply it over just your skincare for an instant, effortless radiance.

When should I apply Creature of Light?

If wearing as a primer, or without other makeup, use Creature of Light after your skincare and SPF. If wearing as a complexion topper, apply after your foundation and/or concealer.

Does Creature of Light dry down?

Creature of Light is a water-based product that will gently set without drying the skin.

Is Creature of Light a highlighter?

While we welcome you to experiment with our products, Creature of Light is formulated to be worn on the full face, neck, and décolletage. The iridescent pigments are finely milled with ethereal translucency, so the effect is subtle yet transformative. This recommended full-face application will also add luminosity to the high points of your face, while also creating a soft inner glow everywhere.

Is Creature of Light glittery?

Absolutely not. Creature of Light is formulated with extremely finely-milled iridescent pigments. If holding the bottle in direct sunlight you may notice some glimmer in the bottle, but on the face the effect is all-over luminosity.

What creates the subtle lifting and smoothing effect in Creature of Light?

The carageenans from elkhorn sea moss create a gentle, subtle lifting and smoothing effect after application.

I tried the 2022 preview of Creature of Light. How is this different?

If you loved the preview release of Creature of Light, we cannot wait for you to experience the final formula–we have made it even better. Beyond the beautiful new packaging–which is 50 ml rather than the original, more standard 30 ml–we have improved wear and application with small upgrades to the formula.

Creature of Light now has a creamier application texture, and applies and wears even better whether you are using it over makeup, under makeup or just on top of your skincare.

Comparing the shades between the two releases:

• Moonlit Creature uses the exact same pigment blend as Opalescent Creature.
• Angelic Creature is an entirely new shade, never seen before the final launch.
• Glowing Creature uses a similar pigment blend to Lustrous Creature, but it is not identical. While it imparts the same level of luminosity, it is slightly more translucent and slightly more neutral-toned, making it work for even more complexions.

Divine Creature uses a similar pigment blend to Brilliant Creature. The shade is the same, but we were able to make improvements to application with some minor modifications.
