CARGO must haves?

I am a lover of CARGO - especially the blushes and bronzers. Here's what I currently have or have had:

Blush in Rome, Laguna, Panama, Mendocino
Beach Blush in Echo Beach
Bronzer in Medium and Dark
Lipgloss duo in Kalamazoo, Twin Cities, Soho
Lipgloss quad in Tenaga
SmokyEye Kit in Barcelona
two eyeshadows that I can't remember the name of - gold and green

This is a line not to be missed. The huge size of the pan means the product lasts forever and the colors are richly pigmented. Great, great line!

Have to agree with everyone so far on the blushes and bronzers by Cargo

I only own one blush by Cargo (Mendocino) and I really like it - I was afraid it might come out looking too pigmented on my cheek but a small swipe and I was good to go

I also own one of their duo lipgloss (soho) but the only thing I don't like is that I can't really take it with me in my purse on super hot days out here in CA. I worry about it melting in my purse and turning into a nasty gloppy mess. Kinda wish it was in a tube or something else.

They actually do have them in little "purse" glosses. Soho mixed is actually Berlin in the purse gloss. I live in cali too, I caught on real quick!

The blusher in Rome is just too gorgeous. One of the most unique shades I've seen in a long time.

Their BR primer is also godly, but I find I need something with a tad more staying power. Maybe I'll use the other base they've got. Tested their Dark bronzer to see if it could work as a contour...and it doesn't. That made me sad, so I'm still on the hunt.

Cargo's HD Blush/Highlighter is very pretty...it's a soft pink that just seems to blend beautifully into the skin. I think it would look great on you.

What local Tesco's have you seen the brand in? (Your near me - newcastle/northumberland area) - I might pop in & have a look myself, sounds like a promising brand. Whats their pricing like?

I had a look in Sainsburys and it was so-so, the SA didn't help because you can't really have a play around without her hovering over you; I did like the smokey eye thing but they were out of the brushes.

  • Lip Gloss in Cancun
  • Lip Gloss in Macchu Picchu
  • Reverse Lip Liner
  • Blu Ray Powder

Belize eye shadow is gorgeous green, but I don't think they make it anymore.

Any of the lip glosses! The tins are such an inconvenience, but now they have the tube version -- they just don't have as many colors.

For medium skin tones I love Walla Walla. The lighter color is lighter than the swatch shown on Sephora. It's actually kind of a nude/sheer color, so it doesn't look too bad on naturally flushed lips or darker skin tones. Their glosses are so comfortable -- not sticky at all. They just don't have that great of staying power, but I HATE lip gloss -- this is the only one I'd wear.
