Cargo Activating Face Primer

Cargo blu_ray
High Definition Make-Up
Activating Face Primer





Cargo makes some Amazing products and one of my Stand Out Favorites of many is the Activating Face Primer.

Here is the Skinny on the Activating Face Primer from Cargo:

A light-weight and comfortable oil-free and silicone-free primer. Does not leave a heavy, oily or 'mask' type feeling that most primers do.
All the glow, none of the shine! CARGO's blu_ray Activating Face Primer reduces shine, refines pores and visibly reduces wrinkles. This revolutionary formula is silicone-free and paraben-free. See results in an instant. See better looking skin in 30 days. Clinically proven.
Clinically Proven Results:
95% of subjects reported smoother looking skin.
Fine lines, blemishes and imperfections are immediately less visible.

I have been using this Primer on and off for months and I really like it how it works as a primer under my Cargo Liquid Foundation (Blog Coming) and any other foundation I have. It really helped during the summer to keep the shine off my face and to make my foundation look even better. I recently started to use it more often because I was reading about all of the benefits that it provides. I had been wanting to find a primer that had anti aging benefits and here I had one all the time. I thought it only made since to start using it more often to obtain it's benefits quicker. So I have been trying to use it every time I wear a foundation. The problem is that I do not wear foundation everyday, so I decided to try to apply it over my skin care even on some days when I am not wearing a full face. This is working out great because it leaves my skin with a subtle yet radiant glow. I am really beginning to see a overall improvement to my skin. I have to admit that I do not have the worst skin, but I will take any help I can get. I truly believe that taking these extra steps like finding a primer that not only makes your foundation look and stay on better but improves you skin's overall appearance is very beneficial and can only help. Why not use a primer that has built in benefits to improve your skin?!

The Primer On My Skin and what it looks like.
It goes on so smoothly and feels so refreshing!


Final Thoughts:

I think this is a very good primer for anyone, especially anyone looking for a primer that is Silicone Free! Silicone in primers are NOT GOOD for people with Acne Prone skin. Oily Skin and silicone products are not a good combination. I think this Primer would be excellent for anyone that is prone to acne or oily skin. I really hoped you enjoyed this post and I hope it helped out anyone looking for an anti-aging primer, silicone free primer, or just a new really good primer to try out!

Thanks,

We didn't know that silicone is bad for people with acne prone skin! We both have a little acne here and there but would still feel better steering clear of products with it in them now. Great post! That primer deff sounds amazing! :)

Thanks Ashley and Julie,

Yes there has been studies done to show this. That is why many brands are now coming out with Silicone Free Primers. Yes there is so much in Primers that can irritate you skin. Thanks for liking the post, means the World to me!!

I unfortunately have oily prone skin, so me and this primer would not be good friends :( I'm glad to know now that silicone in primers isn't good for my skin type, so thank you for sharing that with us! I'm glad to hear it works for you though!

Thank you for sharing this my love! I also want to thank you for pointing out about why not use a primer with added benefits to your skin too! I'm guilty of neglecting my skin and so I'm looking for all kinds of ways to help use products that doubles for makeup and skincare benefits. Thanks to you for always drilling this in me because I would probably still be neglecting my own skin!

May I ask you, do you know why Sephora stopped carring CARGO cosmetics? I only see them at ULTA now, is there any other places that sells Cargo love? ULTA is quite far from me =X

You wrote yet another great post! Thank you for sharing my love! xoxo

Thanks Shalunya,

I appreciate that!! Yes it it a good one. I had it on yesterday at the docs where they were doing all kinds of stuff to my face and it didn't budge...:)

Thanks Chelsea,
I am not sure what you mean. This primer was formulated Oil and Silicone Free. I am not sure if you meant this primer or primers in general don't work for you. This primer was designed for people with Oily skin. So I hope that you read this....:)

I agree with on the more benefits the better. Why Not??!!
I am not sure why. It was probably based on a business decision. It basically comes down to that. Cargo is also sold online and at Kohls where they now have a whole huge Prestige area of Cosmetics...:) Love me some Cargo!!!! Today I am going to wear the reverse lip liner...Need to post on that. Not that my lips need to be any bigger, but why not accentuate why you got!!
