One of the good things about the post-holiday period: the sales! They’re a good reason to wait to make some purchases until after the holiday shopping madness mellows, because sometimes you can find things like holiday makeup palettes marked down.
Like this one from Cargo, the Venice Enchantment Palette. It was originally $34. It comes with 12 powder shadows, a black liner and a dual-ended brush.
The $34 wasn’t too bad to start with, but it’s marked down now to $27 on Cargo’s website.
Even better.
Cargo likes to take a travel angle with their whole philosophy on makeup, and it makes sense.
I mean…they’re called Cargo, after all.
This palette here was inspired by the rich, romantic opulence of Venice, and I WANT TO GO TO THERE. The wines, brassy golds, olives and the burgundy shade go a step beyond the usual beiges and browns. They’re like “new neutrals,” and I can see myself wearing a lot of them, especially the olives and the burgundy, with the neutrals in my collection. I also like the amount of shimmer here. It’s juuust right for what I like to wear on my lids.
