I like the glow this blush gives! very warm! However, I dislike the packaging! the little tin that mine came in was so hard to open and I ended up breaking the product! However, I would purchase again because it is a nice product if you like shimmery bronzer!

I bought this product accidentally. When I saw that I had purchased the wrong product I was disappointed - especially since I wasn't a fan of the makeup with strips of different colors.

But when I finally tried it I was amazed! It provided a natural flush that was still made my face glow. In other words, the color was warm and somehow still popped.

It was expensive, and I am so sorry that I missed Sephora's sale when it was $6. Its the ONLY blush I have hit pan on.

This is my go to summer blush/bronzer. I was never really a bronzer fan, but I wanted to try some and started with this one. Since I'm so fair I am able to use this as a bronzer and I really like it. It gives me a really nice glow. You can layer this for the intensity that you want. This makes me want to try out more Cargo blushes. It's really a shame Sephora isn't going to sell Cargo anymore.

This is such a pretty blush but the shimmer settles into pores (even with a primer) something fierce. The staying power isn't as long as the Blu-Ray blushes either.

Love it! I love that you can control the colour by applying a little more of the darker or lighter colours in the pan. I use the lightest colour as a highlighter.

Like the previous reviewer said. Sephora is selling all CARGO products for 50% off so I decided to purchase this bronzer/blush. I am a MAC NC50 for reference so this does not work on me as a bronzer but it is a gorgeous blush and highlighter on me. I have been wearing this every day since purchasing it. It actualy looks good on me with or without foundation. It gives this nice glow to the skin. This is the best blush I have ever purchased. There is a ton of product in the tin pan so I am sure it will take me forever to run out of it.

I'm using this as a blusher, though I suppose it could be considered a bronzer. It has 4 strips of baked color a tan, a bronze, a coppery color and a taupe. Very warm colors. Used with my kabuki brush it blends into a peachy glow on my pale, midwinter skin. Makes me look healthy, but it doesn't look like a bronzer. It looks natural. No shimmers. No zits.

I am going to see how each strip works as eyeshadow, as they are the perfect colors for me. I got this dirt cheap at the Sephora half off sale. The packaging is nice, as it won't spill in the purse. It is quite a bit of blush! This has replaced my DIOR as my favorite blush.

I went to Sephora looking for a new bronzer for the summer, but a makeup artist suggested that I should use this blush for my tanned (NC40) skin. I must say that I love it! I used the two darkest swatches as the blush and the other two as a highlighter. It looks great during the daytime and night.

This product is fairly unique because of the different colors of bronzer and blush in the tin, from golden brown on one side to a shimmery ivory-beige shade on the other side. The two stripes in the middle (one a pinkish color and the other a reddish coral) are somewhat more shimmery than the outer two. However, when I blend all the colors together, the shimmer is barely noticeable. I like this, but I'm not convinced that this is the best of the Cargo bronzer/blush products, so I will have to keep testing. Also- I am deducting one point because of the packaging. This tin is too large and clunky to fit in my makeup bag, and the top of the tin is very likely to come off. Cargo should make it smaller and with a top which will stay securely on.

I am in love with the Cargo BeachBlush. The colors are sort of intimidating at first but once you swipe them on your skin you'll be amazed at how well it blends in, not to mention the glow your skin will have. I have gotten compliments on my skin looking "poreless" thanks to this blush. (My pores are naturally large on my cheeks' apples). Cool toned or warmed toned, your skin will look beautiful with this on.

I love this blush, I've only recently started wearing it more often, but this blush is so flattering on my light brown skin tone, and it makes me look refreshed and pretty. I really love the coloring, and I've yet to find a blush that flatters me the way this does, the only downside is the tin box. The lid is very finicky and can easily flip off or not come off at all, so don't put it in any of your nicer bags as I've learned the hard way. It doesn't irritate my sensitive skin or give me that fakey/tacky blush look that I seem to get with most pinky blushes.

Miami beach for me .. is kind of like the little sister of Cable Beach. It's a pinky/peach blush with a soft plummy shimmer instead of the bronzed shimmer that Cable Beach has. I think this is the one beach blush that would really be universally flattering to just about any skintone. It's a mix of champagne, peachy/pink, rose and plum all in one. My only complaint with Cargo blushes is the packaging .. the tins aren't the easiest to open and drive me bonkers at times when they get stuck .. but if you can tolerate the packaging these blushes are definitely worth having in your stash!

I use this blush as a bronzer, but I really have to be careful. If I use it with Sephora's bronzer brush it goes on REALLY unevenly and the color is very noticeable and weird. If I use the TF Flatbuki and swirl it more, the color is a lot more natural looking. Overall I like this blush/bronzer and I've been trying to use it more lately. My skin is light and it isn't too dramatic, if you're being careful during your application!

Love this blush/bronzer from Cargo. It makes my fairly light skin look nice and bronzed without looking orange-y. Also seems to have a lot of product so it's worth the somewhat expensive price tag.

This is my favorite summer blush. I don't like to wear a lot of makeup when the weather is so hot so I just dust on a little mineral powder, mascara and this blush. It's neither to pink nor to brown on me. You do have to use it sparingly. I use a huge powder brush from prescriptives, swirl it around in the tin once and then shake it. The shimmer is great but if you have oily/shiny skin be careful. The shimmer is very fine and it travels easily, even after you get it on. I have very oily skin and used to blot my face all the time until I found a good oil control cream. I always ended up spreading the shimmer all over my face. Combined with my already oily skin I sometimes got a little two "glowy" shall we say.

When I first looked at this blush, I was sure it was too light for me (NC40) and wouldn't show up. But I was wrong....in fact, I have to use a skunk brush with this because with my normal blush brush makes me look like pinked doll lol. In daylight, it gives me rosy peachy cheeks and the shimmer is so fine that you just get a "glow" no shinyness! Indoors, it looks more pinky rosy on me. also, you don't need a highlighter with this. It's a great product and i think a lot of skintones could wear it. Prob would look great w/a bronzer.

Like many of you, I think the amount of fine shimmer is PERFECT! This is the glowy blush I've been searching for. HG, for sure. The packaging is 'eh,' though. There's a ton of blush, but it's a little heavy for my purse. I don't mind that I have to use my travel blush brush, but there's no mirror and a blush this pigmented shouldn't be applied blindly.

I am still not sure how I feel about this blush. It really does give you that look that you were at the beach for ahwile it gives you a red/peachy glow. I already have a bronzer that I love to death. So I dont really see myself grabbing for it..I suppose this could be good for winter if you dont wanna look pale. Or if you in a hurry to go out. I do like it it looks gorgeous in the tin, I suppose I just need to learn how to put it on correctly to get the full effect. (nw20)
