CARGO - 11.12.09
Quick Take: oil-free, long wearing, cream to powder

By far the best foundation I have ever tried! Because its cream based its very easy to apply. I really like its soft packaging, very smart and probably enviromentally friendly.

best foundation ever! - 11.11.09
Quick Take: oil-free, long wearing

Have tried many brands. On my skin at age 53, it's hard to look great. This does it! Looks very natural; coverage feels sheer, yet my skin is amazing... very fresh. No problems with my oily skin, either. Also use Cargo blush w/ it...awesome look!

Great for Fair Skin - 11.11.09
Quick Take: oil-free

I have very fair skin and have trouble finding foundation that does not leave a yellow or red undertone. This matches perfectly and the packaging allows you to squeeze every last drop out!

Quick Take: oil-free

I like this foundation better than anything I've used in a long time. I use the color F30, the color match is just ok, I wish there were more choices as I need more pink undertones rather than yellow. The coverage is moderate but buildable. It leaves a nice finish, not shiny but not matte, just healthy looking I guess. I am very oily and this doesn't seem to make me oilier. I have yet to find a really good makeup for oily skin. I think the search for my HG foundation will be never ending.

Quick Take: oil-free, long wearing, the best packaging ever!!

I really like this foundation. It is long wearing and has good coverage, you don't need much to do your whole face. I particularly love the package as you can get all of the product out and there is no waste.

Cargo's line is amazing it is it the only liquid foundation that Ive have been pleased with 100%. Gives an overall amazing finish without give you a matted or "caked up look". Amazing in giving the impression of an even skin tone.

Cargo Foundation-great value, great product - 11.03.09
Quick Take: oil-free

Not that I don't value my face, but there's a limit to how much I can spend to make it look good. My Sephora consultant recommended Cargo Foundation as a quality product at a reasonable price, and she was right. It's easy to use, covers beautifully, and lasts a long, long time. I also appreciate that you can tell when you're getting low, not always true for other types of packaging, so you can budget for a replacement. The package also takes up very little room in a landfill, which is nice when I'm tossing my empties. This was my second purchase of this product and I'm very happy with it.

THE BEST FOUNDATION EVER - 11.02.09
Quick Take: oil-free, long wearing, perfection

As a makeup artist who does numerous photo shoots for magazines and weddings and models, this is my must have foundation! In fact it is the only one I take with me on the set!! It gives the most beautiful finish and the molecules in this foundation are so small it is better than any HD liquid! Flawless perfect finish, reduces all redness, yet you look like you have NO makeup on!!!! Truely the best!!!! 5 stars!!!!

hello beautiful! - 11.02.09
Quick Take: oil-free, long wearing

i needed a lightweight formula that would actually match my skin tone! i've tried a lot of makeup and it's always too cakey, orange or doesn't match my very skin tone. i'm very fair skinned and many products, even the lightest shades, are too dark. Also, my skin tends to shine in a few places, but this foundation is amazing! matched with the right shade, i've received so many compliments on my 'beautiful' skin, as soon as i switched to CARGO my friends asked why i wore makeup when i looked better without it, they didn't know i was wearing this foundation. it's so natural and it lasts! i work outside and im always running around, this makeup has been the first to stand up to the heat and last into the night! it's a miracle in a tube.

Was skeptical of the packaging at first but.... - 11.01.09
I now realize how convenient it is to squeeze out just how much you need onto a makeup brush to apply this product. I really think the color choice that the consultant chose for me is perfect for my skin tone. Nice coverage and blends well.

This is MY perfect foundation - 10.30.09
Quick Take: oil-free, long wearing, creamy, great scent, great packaging

Tried others, mostly looked too orange or cakey. Cargo has these key features (1) it smells nice without being overly scented - it doesn't smell like your typical foundation. (2) it applies smoothly - a little goes a long way and this makes your purchase economical. (3) it's not orange - therefore perfect for me (4) it's easily dispensed - no dispenser to get clogged. (5) it provides great long lasting, photogenic coverage - I'm always getting compliments on my smooth, "ivory" skin. Well...its not smooth ...but Cargo makes it so.

Not My Style - 10.30.09
The texture is good and it was a good moisturizer, but I have an olive complexion and this product was too orange for my skin color. I also felt like it made me break out... Also wasn't a fan of the packaging. It looks like it should be inserted into a machine, and I was afraid to carry it in my purse in case the plastic ripped.

Wonderful foundation! Light formula, but with a little more, can produce more coverage on those breakout days.

Cargo Foundation worked great - 10.28.09
This product was recommended by a Sephora sales person, for my friend on her wedding. I helped her do her makeup and we used this as a base. It is amazing!! Her face looked beautiful and soft with out that cakey look. Also it lasted all night.

didnt like - 10.24.09
the scent was so bad. i absolutely hate scents on my face. its bearable if the smell only lasts a minute while your putting it on, but this scent in the foundation lasted all day and gave me a headache instantly and made me nauseous. the foundation also looks cakey on my face and it felt heavy on my face and made my skin feel tight in a way.
the only pro i found with this foundation is the packaging. it might not be as appealing, but you can literally get every last drop out of the package unlike if it were in a bottle.
