Like the ability to change the shade of my lipstick with these, but the package makes application more difficult to use on the go than my wand glosses. One shade is a clear pale peach color and the other is a clear-white purple hued color. I have noticed when I use these over lipstick, I tend to always get lipstick all over my teeth. Maybe the gloss is a little thick overall.

If there is one thing that I love, it's lip gloss. However, this stuff comes in a big tin that is nearly impossible to open and can really put you in a bad mood! Not to mention, once you finally get to the gloss and put it on, it last for only a short time and then there you are again trying to get the tin open.

This is a great lipgloss to use on top of other glosses or lipsticks! One color is an irridescent silvery color with slight violet undertones, and the other color is a sheer gold. Great to use just on the center of the lips to create a pouting effect. The texture is so light. Great colors!

Flin Flon is pretty - It's a lip-enhancing duo with one side a pearl infused with subtle blue iridescence and the other a pearl with a golden sheen. The effects of both glosses are almost non-existent when worn alone ... but when applied over a lip stain transform the lips with a bit of shine and depth.


As with all of Cargo's glosses, the texture is light and slick without any stickiness. This shade isn't a must have for me, but I do appreciate it's subtlety.

Great product - very versatile. Two glosses one more blue-ish tinted iridescent and the other a little more golden. Neat packaging, pretty big to put in a tiny purse! Good to wear alone or change the looks of your lipsticks!

I can see what the big deal is about the famous Flin Flon duo, that I've read is a favorite of Helen Hunt. The silvery shade is iridescent, pearly, very flattering; the gold is shimmery but not glittery or over-the-top. I can wear the silvery shade alone nicely; both shades beautifully enhance other lipsticks of any shade.

this is nice, basic, and i love cargo's gloss texture. but it washed out my lips instead of enhancing them. i like light colors, but need them to add, not detract or else i look sick and/or slightly greenish

I love this product. One side has a gold shimmer to it, and the other is sort of irridescent. It's nice for a simple look, or you can put it over something to give the slightest bit of shimmer. I highly recommend if you like simple things during your day!!!!
