Most of the Silica Gel desiccant packages sold will selectively absorb water.

Some relevant facts are 1) the shampoo/soap looks colored as they selectively absorb some wavelengths and reflect others.

Window coatings not only impair transmissivity but, as they build up, selectively absorb certain wave-lengths.

All biological pigments selectively absorb certain wavelengths of light while reflecting others.
