Pros: Pretty colors.
Cons: Doesn't last. Doesn't have pleasant smell or taste.
Like I said, I'm not a gloss girl.

Although I love Cargo's lipglosses - I found these colors impractical. The darker shade is pretty useless to me as its very very dark to a point where you could not wear it out and look respectable and while the pink is not so bad - having use of only one of the colors sort of defeats the point.

I don't really dislike this lipgloss set, but I don't reach for it very often either. The pink side -- very pretty in the pan -- goes on too lilac on my lips. I only use it either with the other burgundy color or over something else. And while I like the burgundy color, for some reason it's kind of sticky and gritty. Maybe I just got a bad batch.

Just got this combo today, and I like them a lot. The dark wine-colored side is darkly pigmented and is not hugely shiny—although the glitter gives a subtle shimmer. Mix in some from the pink side and get a 60s Yardley's look! But my favorite combo yet is the wine color from Turramurra mixed with the lilac frost from Oulu—frosted purple lips! Very retro! I do find it more drying than my Oulu, but it also lasts longer. These two colors have a slightly gritty texture from the micro-glitter, but I don't find it objectionable, and I like that there's no scent or taste. This is my second Cargo lip gloss, and I look forward to trying more.

This duo is beautiful; I especially adore the pink. The gloss factor is also perfect in that it is glossy but isn't horribly sticky like the old MAC lipglasses. However, after I purchased one of the Cargo duos, I noticed a terrible smell a few months later. The smell and taste were really off putting, and sadly, I am not able to wear it anymore because the smell actually makes me feel sick. A gloss this expensive should not have this problem. A true disappointment. I am wondering if I am the only one who had this problem or if others have experienced this as well?

I love this lip gloss duo. Can be worn alone or mixed and layered to give intensity of color. It also feels smooth on my lips. My favorite of all the other dous. I wish it would last longer, but nothing feels better than pulling out the cute little silver tin from my purse.

The colors first caught my eye in the store, and the shimmer got to me too... I had to get it! A massive tin and fantastic price for what you get. (Double normal tubes of gloss) Don't get this if you're looking for thick, goopy gloss that lasts all day and dries out your lips.

This is one of the best lip glosses I've ever tried. The shade may seem a bit radical at first but you can control its opacity when layering. The texture is not goopy or sticky at all yet it stays long enough.
I love that you can mix both colors together, looks nice. The lighter shade has neutral as well as subtle violet shimmer. The other one is more of a dark berry-toned plum color.
I don't mind the the jumbo tin packaging at all. Problem is I still have to whip out a lip brush every time I use it. I'll have to think twice of repurchasing though because it's expensive!

I like the slickness of these glosses. The colors are great. They look great alone or mixed together. The lighter pink doesn't show up that well on me so I usually mix them or where it over something else.

The colours are quite pretty and complementary so you can definitely mix them. One side is a berry colour and the other side is a light soft pink. I don't like the packaging since it is too bulky to carry around. The colours are quite sheer but have just enough pigment to show a nice hint of colour. The shimmer is also quite pretty and not at all overpowering. These are two great colours for the summer

Having heard so much hubbub about these, I was very excited to try the Cargo liglosses. When I had first tried the texture at Sephora I thought that it felt nice and slick (which I love) and that it would have great staying power, but when I wore it for the first time it started to thin out. Badly. The texture is gritty and a lot like vaseline. My boyfriend really disliked it... so up for swap it goes.
The colors, on the other hand, are really beautiful. The microglitter gives them a beautiful depth. Which is a shame because I just don't like the way it feels when on. I think that I wouldn't have noticed how gritty it felt if the texture wasn't so fluid and thin.
Boo hiss. sad.

I have nw43 coloring and these colors look good on me. I have to say this is my first experience with cargo and I'm in love. I talked this product up so that I hooked a MAC MA on to these. The side I reach for more frequently is the lighter rosy pink side it looks great against my skin. The darker color i put on more when I go out. Overall great pigmentation colors are the best I've seen in the color range it's in. The only thing is you can feel the glitter not bad though and definitely not big enough for me to not buy it again. Oh did I mention it's ultra smooth consistency!!! Gotta love it.

This is probably my favorite lip gloss ever. A deeper plummy side and a rosy side, both glittery, in a cute tin. The glitter isn't overwhelming, just helps the gloss catch the light. I actually had a guy friend compliment me on my lips once while wearing the plummy one- how often do guys do that? hrmm.
Anyhow, the rosy color is a bit too light for my coloring but I'm obsessed with the plummy. It doesn't stay on all that long but the color is so good, I still love it. I use the rosy one as a highlighter or to lighten up darker lipstick sometimes. Overall, highly recommended. I love cargo.

Turramurra is love at first swipe - I absolutely adore this duo, and it has surpassed all others as my favorite! This is one of Cargo's more heavily pigmented duos, and is similar in consistency and texture to Machu Picchu. Its formula is less slick and a bit more 'lipsticky' :) The shades are gorgeous - One side is a lush golden-tinged medium rose, and the other is a rich, golden infused ruby-plum. Both shades suit my skintone extremely well [olive NC30]. The shades in this duo are truly breathtaking, and I imagine they would work for many [if not all!] skintones :)

Both of the colors in this duo are gorgeous!! One's a deep plum burgundy with same colored shimmer. The other is a beautiful rosey pink with pink shimmer. Love the colors but the lasting power sucks :( These fade from my lips within minutes (although a slight stain does remain). I would repurchase if I don't find other colors just like these in a better lasting formula/brand.

I love this gloss. Its a sheer rose pink on one side, and a rich ruby berry on the other. They also have a sparkle to them. They are very similar to Chanel Glossimer in texture. The tin is very chic. Looks great in my makeup bag. Thanks Cargo for making yet another great gloss.

Now this is a gloss! I'm happy to say Cargo finally listened to the make up maven cry and developed a GORGEOUS pigmented gloss.
It's in it's usual stylish metal tin and the colours are very chanel glossimer. The dark wine is reminesence of the Force glossimer on me and the lively pink is very similar to the Soda gloss (or a UD one that I cant remember). Either way, very long lasting, pigmented and smooth feeling.
I'm loving this! Highly recommended
Just wanted to add that the Sephora swatch is actually accurate for this.

This is definitely different from their other glosses. The glitter is absolutely beautiful...it has the most stunning effect when it catches the light at different angles. This (and Cancun) has made me fall in love with Cargo all over again. Highly recommended!
