This cult brand is so well known overseas but as yet hasnt come up in our forum. I have a couple of the cream eyeshadows and a chubby lip pencil. I am not a finger or brush in the pot kind of girl, need easier and less messy access to my glosses but dont they look sensational? The liquid foundaton in the pouch also intrigues me.
Have any of you tried the Cargo range?
I found a lovely link to some news on its lipstick packaging, very inspirational!

Hi Luisa
I use the lipglosses, my favourite colour is bora bora. They are quite long lasting and very affordable for the large pot you get. I also like that you get two colours in one. Thumbs up for me.

Luisa I have a couple of the lipgloss pots too. Beautiful texture (not at all sticky - more like a liquid balm) and the colours are great. Give either sheer or more intense colour depending on what you choose.
Also have a double powder eyeshadow, from memory called Kentucky - one side a light, silvery green, the other a darker, khaki ('cargo', ha ha) shade. Love it.

I haven't tried it either. But I've been eyeing off the Colour Tube for a while because I love the idea of multi-use products. Would love to know what it's like.

I love Cargo. I have lots of their lipgloss duo's as well as eyeshadows and their invisible lip liner!
I urge you all to have a look at their limited edition single use eyeshadow and lipgloss packs. The lipgloss packs have single use gloss wands in an assortment of Cargo's best selling colours. The shadows come on thin little cards (like a business card) and I have found I easily get three or four applications out of each card. Again these shadows come in a little tin with an assortment of colours. The are perfect for travel. I am not sure if Adore sells theses limited edition products but they are also available from Rescu Beauty Bar and David Jones. They retail around $38 each.

I've only tried the lipgloss pots, & I love them! :yellow:
I agree that they aren't too sticky & last ages... I've got La La Land & Pago Pago...
Am keen to try the other products such as the eyeshadows...

As PCC may not be able to answer this for a while (she should pop on briefly tomorrow morning) thought I would send you the link, sounds interesting!

Basically guys the Cargo invisible lip liner is a skin toned liner. It ok but I prefer the Du Wop one. That is totally transparent and a smooth velvety texture. It is fabulous (around $45) and you never have to worry about that dreaded visible lip liner ever again!

Has anyone tried the Colour Tube? More specifically the 'summerside' and 'Champagne' colours? I'm interested in getting it and I want to know what the colours are like. :) ta

I bought the Purse Gloss in Paris yesterday and it's a great lip product. The best thing of course is the packaging - tube is perfect for the purse (go figure) and the gloss is easy to appy though the little pump/brush. Pretty range of colours and the texture is good - probably a bit lighter than the gloss pots, which I love. I'm keen to try a few more colours in the range.

They call the range Blu-Ray. Not sure why you would need a special mascara for HD filming though....:redcheeks:

I don't understand all this new-fangled mumbo jumbo. When did makeup stop being makeup and start being something new and fancy?!
Love all those colours though.
Here's my review...
Cargo blush in Catalina is a pretty Barbie-doll/bubblegum cool pink. It goes on smoothly and evenly. It is also highly pigmented so a little goes a long way. Wasn't sure about it when I saw it in the tin because it is so bright, but actually goes on fairly sheer, perfect for my NC 25 skin - gives a natural flush to the cheeks and brightens my face! love it absolutely!
Oh Adore... such a fantastic and wonderful customer service! highly recommended!
