PP12: Cargo HD pressed Powder in #20

I purposely left this one last for the job pan update, since this was somewhat different from the rest of the products in that I opened a brand new product at the onset of the project, in an attempt to pan it in 12 weeks.

A deal with powder is one of those products that I utilize daily, as well as I was curious exactly how much product I can go with in 3 months.

The Cargo HD pressed Powder is one of my top 5 pressed powders – the shade #20 utilized to be always offered out so I stocked up on a few of them. After this is finished, I have one more in my stash.

I keep in mind when this powder was very first introduced – it was most likely one of the very first beauty products to tout “HD” in its name because of the emergence of HD TVs. I recalled reading exactly how this powder was favoured by newscasters since exactly how great it makes them look on HD TVs. Nowadays, every other product phone calls itself HD – I believe the HD name has lost it caché.  I likewise don’t hear much about Cargo in the beauty world anymore – I believe mainly because of its lower distribution since its exit out of Sephora.

What I like about this powder is exactly how it makes the skin look airbrushed – blurring fine lines, pores – without looking powdery or “made up”. It provides a medium coverage, blends seamlessly into my skin, as well as preserves a skin-like texture. The primary drawback is that this powder isn’t the very best at radiate manage – that’s why I prefer this powder during the cooler months when my t-zone has a tendency to be less oily.

I’ve been diligently utilizing this powder Every.Single.Day. since the begin of job Pan. It turns out, I truly don’t utilize that much powder! This is what it appears like after 3 months of use:

No pan in sight!  There’s a slight dip in the pan you can at the sides, however I quote it will be one more 3 months at least, up until I see any type of sliver of pan in the center.

I utilize a bit fluffy synthetic kabuki clean with this pressed powder – the one shown is from “Essential Beauty” (cheapo one I discovered at Winners years ago).  Recently I likewise like utilizing an oval “toothbrush brush” to smooth over the surface as well as pat onto areas of my deal with with tighter angles like around the nose (this clean shown is from Cailyn, likewise discovered at Winners, back in August). I don’t bring this compact in my handbag since I discover the packaging to be bulky. as well as although it contains a nice mirror, the compact doesn’t enable space for a sponge, so you would have to bring a sponge or a clean separately.

The component listing is quite short:

Talc, Nylon-12, Octyldodecyl Stearoyl Stearate, Zinc Stearate, Caprylyl Glycol, Silver Oxide. may contain (+/-): Mica (Ci 77019), Titanium Dioxide (Ci 77891), Iron Oxides (Ci 77491, Ci 77492, Ci 77499), Ultramarines (Ci 77007), D&C Black 2 (Ci 77266).

The Cargo HD pressed Powder contains 8g of product as well as is made in Canada. It is sold at choose Rexall as well as London medication stores in Canada. In the US, Cargo is sold at Ulta, Walgreens, as well as Kohl’s.

Pros:
• Ultra fine powder
• natural finish, not powdery
• Blurs lines as well as pores
• great colour match

Cons:
• Not high oil control
• Compact not fantastic to bring in purse

Stash worthiness: 9/10

And what the heck! The weight went up this week? I weighed this thing ten TIMES as well as it still weighed 0.001 more than last week. This joke isn’t funny!

As usual, the only product that went down in weight was the Body shop Fresh nude Foundation:

Please inspect out my job pan pals for their updates:
• Ingrid of Curly.Spring.Blossom
• Jodi of A Brash Attitude
• Chanelle of Chanelle Hayleyyy

And this is the last job pan item, as well as we’ll be publishing our final summaries this Wednesday.

What’s your favourite deal with powder?
