The Complement palette I received contains Slink, a soft pale powder shimmer, Focus \u2013 a liquid metal brown (creme finish), Forgiveness \u2013 a rich brown plum and Queen of the Night, a dark purple.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So far I\u2019ve used Slink as a highlight shade and (although I thought I wouldn\u2019t be keen on it) the Liquid Metal shade Focus as an all over lid shadow. Focus is quite like my favourite MAC Groundwork Paint Pot but with a richer finish.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The nail varnish in Charisma is such a lovely shade which I know will be my go to shade for Autumn and Winter. It\u2019s a really rich raspberry red with just the right amount of sheen. I really love the Illamasqua varnishes, they\u2019re really easy to wear and are long lasting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Finally, the Intense Lipgloss in Opulent isn\u2019t a shade I would buy myself as I\u2019m not a fan of anything too sparkly but this rainbow lipgloss is definitely for those who are a bit more daring than myself! It\u2019s quite out there, but maybe I\u2019ll give it a whirl next time I go out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Other pieces from the collection that I need to get my hands on are; this powder blush in S.O.P.H.I.E., the Gleam in Aurora (I\u2019m obsessed with cream highlighters at the moment!) and this gorgeous Empower palette which is definitely on my wishlist!<br>What do you think of the latest Illamasqua collection, Generation Q? It will be released fully on 6th September but you can pre-order some of the products now.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Illamasqua Complement Palette \u2013 \u00a334 *Illamasqua Charisma Varnish \u2013 \u00a313.50 *Illamasqua Lipgloss in Opulent \u2013&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":836,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[12,15],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.uscgnews.com\/go\/doc\/4007\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/835"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.uscgnews.com\/go\/doc\/4007\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.uscgnews.com\/go\/doc\/4007\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.uscgnews.com\/go\/doc\/4007\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.uscgnews.com\/go\/doc\/4007\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=835"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/www.uscgnews.com\/go\/doc\/4007\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/835\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1335,"href":"https:\/\/www.uscgnews.com\/go\/doc\/4007\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/835\/revisions\/1335"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.uscgnews.com\/go\/doc\/4007\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/836"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.uscgnews.com\/go\/doc\/4007\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=835"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.uscgnews.com\/go\/doc\/4007\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=835"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.uscgnews.com\/go\/doc\/4007\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=835"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
