Not long lasting

I was hoping to add a bit of color to my lips without going into lipstick territory, and I heard such rave reviews over this gloss that I had to try it. While the color was nice it hardly stayed on my lips. I kept having to apply it, to me thats a waste!

Love the colors!

Even the colors that look crazy bright in the packaging go on with the perfect amount of sheer buildable color. I found it lasted a surprisingly long time for a gloss. And I like putting it on with a finger, makes me feel "artistic" haha.

Great colors, no staying power

I love the colors Cargo has to offer, but there is so staying power on these glosses. The packaging is tricky also- it looks like you have a lot of gloss in the package, but after a few applications, I hit pan. Save your money, there are other pretty, long lasting glosses out there.

good colors, but...

Doesn't seem to have a lot of staying power. Mine came unglued from the tin pretty quicky and slides around all over each other. Moistuizes pretty well.

Just try it

This isn't the simple to in your bag and go product and yet I love it. Smells good,feels good and looks good. Worth the bother.

Pretty Colors

But I hate sticking my fingers in these things, and I don't carry a little lip brush with me all the time. My other issue was that one of mine melted and I tried to clean it up as best as I could but it was so hard to open the tim after that. So yeah...pretty colors, but not much else to rave about.

Lots of Pretty Colors Available

I have this product in LaLa Land, Ipanema and Soho. I like the texture, but color disappears very quickly.

shine with less stick

heres why i love cargo gloss ---- its not sticky! its more of a slick but has the same appearence as a thick sticky gloss. thats important to me, because if i start out thick and sticky i feel like i have to keep applying and if i dont it just gets globby... this stuff is great :]

Great gloss! Too bad it's finger application though.

CARGO's tin glosses are great glosses, they have just the right amount of shine without being gloppy or heavy. The colors are subtle and very wearable on any skintone. The downside? Finger application isn't for everyone and these glosses will liquify in your handbag on a hot day. If finger application isn't for you, try their Purse Gloss, same formula in a finger-free applicator!

Great Shine, Not Enough Colour

I found with a lot of the glosses the colour would disappear on my lips. The texture was nice and smooth though. I liked having 2 colours in a big tin that you could layer over the other. But if you're someone that goes through gloss quickly these big tins don't actually hold a lot of product. And these also didn't hold up well in hot weather - a lot of times they would get liquidy. Overall, I hav...read moreen't bought these in years and probably don't plan to again. There's too many other glosses out there that have both colour and shine and you don't have to use your finger! :)
