Cargo Cosmetics Eye Shadow: Review

Pink Eye Shadows

I’ve always loved to have fun with my eye shadows because there are so many exciting colours to play with  that I just can’t resist. For the past few months, I’ve been very faithful to my naked palette. It has been hot and I really didn’t feel like putting too much colour on my face. Now that the weather has been slowly changing, I find myself missing my other eye shadows. My greens and blues and purples and pinks, I love them all.

Cargo Cosmetics. As a result, when I recently attended a sidewalk sale, I just couldn’t resist purchasing some palettes by Cargo Cosmetics.  The fact that they are originally a Canadian company makes it fun but…. oh I have to admit, it was the packaging that first caught my eye. With names like, Bermuda, Baja and Shanghai who could resist these wonderful eye shadows? Too bad Paris was sold out or I would have bought it because of  its name alone. Fortunately I was able to walk away with Toronto and London. Two amazing cities!

With its combination of gray’s and blues, Toronto will be ideal for the perfect smokey eye. Fall is around the corner and that means more evenings out. I’m very excited to start experimenting again. One of Toronto’s many nicknames, dating back to the early 1900’s, is The Big Smoke so I guess this eye shadow palette is very appropriate.

It was the purple and olive green that caught my eye in the London palette.  It will definitely become a daily staple. It works with almost everything I own and it brings a nice warmth to my skin tone.

Other than nudes, which of course are always in and will always remain a staple, what are some of your favourite eye shadow colours? I’m always looking for new ones!

Have you ever tried Cargo cosmetics, which palette is your favourite?

Eye shadows that I’m currently obsessing over

  1. I love this!! Sorry I haven’t commented in a while!! I read your blogs at work and our Internet is so slow comments don’t like to upload!! I love having fun with my eyeshadow!! My favorites are purples since I have brown eyes, but I try everything!!!! 🙂

  2. Lovely shade, I especially like the green glitter!

    1. Oh Ha! I love it but it’s hard to wear because it gets in my eyes!
      xo

  3. Ooo, I love playing around with shadows too =) =) Would love to see some of the looks you put together with your shadows!

    1. I will definitely put something together!
      xo

  4. Nice colors. I’ve played around with many hues and honestly don’t know what looks good on me. I gravitate toward purples but that might not be the best choice. Makeup is hard when you don’t have anyone to guide you or give you feedback.

    1. I’m sure most colours would look fabulous on you! You’ve got a great audience, post some ideas I’m sure we can all help you out!
      xo

  5. miss Margaret Cruzemark

    Although I would love a rainbow in my eyes, I am stuck in earth tones, mostly light browns and easy greys.

    1. I stick with those too but sometimes I like to change it up and then I just love green!
      xo

  6. I love the London palette for it’s natural tones! It’s perfect combination for everyday and lord knows we all have our one true set that we can always use if we don’t know what to put on 🙂

    xoxo

    1. Exactly!!!! I can’t wait to wear that purple.
      xo

  7. I don’t use many colours, though next season I’m going to add prune tones to my naked palette 🙂
    Happy weekend darling!

    1. Oh prune is such a lovely colour for the eyes!

  8. Amazing shades, my fav is the first of Mac!!!!
    Have a lovely sunday my dear Caroline!

    1. Thank you! I hope you are having a wonderful weekend too.
      xo

    1. Thanks!!!
      xo

  9. I’m not a huge fan of make up and specially eyeshadows. However I really liked the last ones, with the nutral colors

    1. Thanks! On a daily basis I only wear neutrals, colours are for a fun night out!
      xo

  10. I know I’m so excited to pull out all my fall shades in makeup & nail polish.
    Fun shades, i especially love the loose turquoise blue pot and the raspberry / fuchsia colours.
    Do you often pair those two colours together?

    xo, Jackie

  11. What a great post! I agree, nudes and neutrals will always be a staple but there’s nothing like a bit of colour every now and then to make your eyes pop! If you’re up for something risky, you should try the shadows made by Lumikki on etsy. They have some interesting and creatively named shades, like ‘Dragon Scale’, ‘Andromeda’ and ‘Wallflower’ – and they’re all just wonderfully made with so many pigments in one pot. I’m saving up to by myself some shades!

    1. Oh thanks for that, I really appreciate it. I think I’m sold on the names alone!!!!
      xo

  12. Francesca Giagnorio

    I love your glitter eyeshadows! I enjoy with chanel ombre’s: love them!
    Kiss
    Francesca from http://everydaycoffee23.blogspot.it

    1. Oh thank you! The glitter is more for fun but I love the colour!
      xo

  13. Jamie "ChatterBlossom"

    I’m always drawn to the purple/greens, but they are not the color for me. My skin doesn’t like those too much, but my eye does! Okay, ready for a shock? I don’t even own a single eye shadow!

    1. You need to change that! With your colouring… are you kidding me? You would look great in anything!
      xo

  14. I too have been a bit obsessed with blues and greens for a while now. I think going into fall, i’m going to be sporting a whole lot of navy! Have you checked out Bobbi Brown’s Navy and Nude palette? GORGEOUS! Great post! xoxo Carla

    1. Oh I love that palette but I’m allergic to Bobbi Brown products… it’s so strange. I love looking at them though!
      xo

  15. Hope Howland (@HHDesigns)

    Lovely colors!! Eye shadow is so much fun!!

  16. I’ve been sticking with neutrals too. I am LOVING all of your colorful shades though. Makes me want to go and get my eyes done.

  17. I dont use eye shadow enough! And it can really change an appreance!
    Great colours. Love the silvers and blues as well as the pinks!

    1. I think it’s a fun pop of colour you can easily use to change your look!

  18. That greenish / turquoise glittery one looks AMAZING!!!
    I think these shades are great for fall Caroline!

    Loved it!

    Wow, you’ve got a ton of shadows there!!! I love purples and greens myself, they look great with green eyes!

  20. Oh, I`m in love with that pink glitter. Is it just for eyes?

    1. I love it too! It’s just glitter so I’m assuming it can be used anywhere!
      xo

  21. Oh I love greens and blues. It looks good on my eyes and it makes me think of the ocean with the different blue shades and the green sea weed 🙂

    1. I love that image, thank you!
