Did you know that you should be replacing your fav lip gloss after nine months of wear? Yes, glosses have a healthy life span of nine months, according to CARGO Cosmetics. The problem is, who can remember when they first opened their gloss? (more…)

Summertime months are synonymous with vacationing and traveling. So, whether you’re headed to the cottage or off to see the beautiful wonders of Europe, it’s time to say au revoir to that bulky cosmetic bag and hello to a small, friendlier travel companion.
With every woman’s beauty travel needs in mind, Cargo Cosmetics created ColourCards Eye Shadows. These single use eye shadows are glazed onto ultra flat cards for easy, on-the-go use. Change looks from day to night and from city to city as each box of ColourCards comes with a variety of radiant, shimmering hues from gold to pink and green. Designed to suit any occasion perfectly.
These portable, luxury shimmers are made from the finest nutrients to keep skin radiant while on the move. A powerful antioxidant, vitamin E, conditions the skin making it smooth and supple while also protecting it from sun damage and environmental factors. To ensure its velvety texture and increase its staying power, the shadows are infused with silica, which also enhances blending and allows for greater colour control.
For your next adventure, toss the ColourCards in a purse, wallet, or even travel with them in their compact reusable tin.

You’re sitting on a patio enjoying a cocktail—and the stares from the cute guy at the next table when you realize he’s not staring at you, he’s staring at your makeup drip, drip, dripping down your face. We’ve all been there, but what’s a girl to do during the lazy hazy days of summer? The new Melt-Proof Makeup Collection from CARGO is a limited edition kit of long-wearing, water-resistant make-up and includes Better-than-waterproof Mascara, Melt-proof Bronzer and Melt-proof 3-in-1 Eye-Cheek-Lip Palette that doesn’t melt, smudge or run and provides the perfect dose of summer colour—think shimmering apricots.
Perfect for traveling, hitting the beach or lying poolside, this collection is super-easy to apply (finger-paints anyone) and made up of a mixture of emollients and waxes that create a water resistant barrier and provide increased staying power.

Like a shiny piece of jewellery, high-quality metallic eye shadow can supply your skin with and instant glow and enhance your eye colour.
Cargo EyeBronzer fits the bill. Not only does it deliver the perfect amount of gleam, but it’s laced with skin-perfecting ingredients. Paraben-free mica illuminates eyes with sheer and light-reflecting particles, boron nitrate delivers a subtle glow while minimizing imperfections and kaolin gets to work by drawing out impurities while keeping natural oil in tact.
Encased in a slim tube, the shadow is housed in a tiny inkwell pot, so you can avoid spills in your beach bag and control how much shadow you want to use each time.
To heck with precision application —run the spongy brush across your lash line, pat the inner corners, or smudge with abandon. If a few flecks hug your lashes or rain under your eyes, don’t sweat it. Remember, you’re glowing.
