Face of The Day Featuring Illamasqua Complement Palette and Mini Review

I have to be honest I was in two minds whether to order this palette or not, although the colours instantly called to me I had read a few bad reviews, mainly about the pigmentation but I trusted my instincts and ordered it anyway and I'm really glad I did as it's gorgeous. It's surprisingly wearable considering two of the shadows are darker purples. I wore this in the daytime and obviously you could apply more and make it a darker smokey look for night time but I like the fact that you can control how dark you go! I used primer potion underneath and didn't experience any creasing but I did have some minor fading in the crease after about 10 hours.
