blu_ray Pressed Powder by Cargo Cosmetics

I love this product! I have pretty nice skin for my age, but blu_ray Pressed Powder makes my skin look and feel flawless.

A little goes a long way with this powder and if it looks yellow and cakey, you are probably applying too much. Once you get the right balance, it leaves a natural matte finish.

High definition makeup aims to make one look as flawless as possible when focused up close on a television or movie screen. It was formulated with celebrities in mind, who cannot afford not to look perfect.

Cargo blu_ray Pressed Powder contains specialized photochromatic pigments that adjust with lighting so that your skin always looks perfect regardless of the setting.

A combination of materials, create a blurring effect. Micro-fine particles seem to fill in fine lines and diffuse light in order to help camouflage imperfections. I found that blu_ray Pressed Powder really does what it claims!

Why would an average consumer like me want high definition makeup? Of course, I want to look as beautiful as the celebrities that I watch. But in this high tech digital computer era, I also want to reduce the time and amount of shots while taking those utterly ‘candid’ self-portraits! Check this out for yourself.

You can purchase blu_ray Pressed Powder online at Sephora.com. Suggested retail price is $30.00.

Cargo Gloss Quad in South Beach

Lianne Farbes — Fri, 03 Jul 2009 17:41:50 +0000

One of my favorite glosses is made by a company called Cargo. They make a nice lightweight glosses in oversized utilitarian tins that are good to apply with your finger or a brush. South Beach Lip Gloss Quad delivers a sheer dose of color that’s light enough not to raise eyebrows around the office. Just the right amount of shine without being gloppy or heavy. Even the colors that are crazy looking are sheer and buildable.

The tins are normally available in duos….but this special edition is a quad. Southbeach contains nude shades that are universally flattering for any skin tone: champagne, rose bronze, sheer pink shimmer, rose nude shimmer. Perfect gloss for summer. As with any lightweight sheer gloss, frequent re-application is necessary.
