CARGO PLANT LOVE

Cargo Plant Love is a range by Cargo Cosmetics that offers a complete line of eco-friendly organic makeup. It is the only color brand to carry the globally recognized ECOCERT™ certification for its environmental commitment.
What do I Love about Cargo Plant Love?
  • 100% Natural Products
  • Free of Parabens, Phthalates, Petro-chemicals and Synthetic Dyes and Fragnances
  • Revolutionary packaging made from Corn
  • Certified by ECOCERT for being environmentally friendly in product, packaging, and process.
I have been trying and testing a few of their products and all I can say is I adore this range! The first product that I did get my mitts on is their Green Goddess Collection for Eyes and Cheeks...
Cargo Plant Love - Green Goddess Collection
It Comes in a bio degradable packaging that I like very much!

As you can see the palette contains 4 eyeshadows and 2 blushes. The pricing is £22 per palette, which I think is fine considering the quality and eco friendly nature of the product.

The eyeshadows are shimmery, medium pigmented and blend beautifully. However, the shade Lily comes loaded with chunky glitters and if you're a person who prefers to do their eyemakeup after the rest of their makeup then you're gonna be dissapointed to see all the flakes of glitter covering your entire face! Coming to the blush, Peony is a gorgeous shimmery golden peachy pink and works as a nice highlighter. Rose is a sheer deep reddish pink color, its a gorgeous color and adds a rosy tint to my cheeks!

The second Cargo Plant Love product that I am Luuurrrrvvvinnngggg is their baked Illuminator!

The product comes in a eco friendly packaging. it retails at £15.

I really like its egg shaped case! The design over the case is simple and cool! It is a baked illuminator with golden, peach and bronze veining. This is in shade Wind and its an absolute jaw dropper bronzer and highlighter in one! It really is a stunner and looks far more gorgeous in real than in the pic! However, I was a bit let down to see that the baked product wasn't attached firmly onto the plastic base and it came out on my hands within a minute of opening the case, not expected of a £15 makeup item.

You can get a total of 4 shades from this baked illuminator. All 4 shaded swatched on my hands. The 3rd swatch from your left is how it looks with all shades swirled together.

The third product I got is the Cargo Plant Love Eye pencil...

I got this in Dark Brown shade. Its a soft chocolate brown shade, glides like a dream and stays put for hours without smudging. This shade is perfect for daytime wear! Being a product of natural origin, its kind on the delicate eye area and I like the fact that it doesn't cause any irritation to my eyes! Their eyeliners comes in a variety of colors and retails at £10.


FOTD using all the above Cargo Plant Love products. (Sorry for getting a bit product heavy with the illuminator! haha)

Overall, I would give the Plant Love range from Cargo cosmetics a big thumbs Up!

Plant Love is available in the UK at Puresha, check out their massive 50% sale on some of their fab eyeshadows, lipsticks and lip liners! ohh I have my eye on their lipstick in Lola ;)
