Cargo Cosmetics Launches in Harvard Square Store!

Date created: 15th August 2007

Beauty and Main is thrilled to welcome Cargo Cosmetics into our Harvard Square location!

Cargo Cosmetics is a line of beautiful, wearable, portable cosmetics created by celebrity makeup artist Hana Zalzal. Zalzal hoped to inspire women of all ages to experiment, play, celebrate, and enjoy makeup. All while also having a line of products that makeup artists would want to have in their kits. She succeeded!

What catapulted CARGO into stardom were their lip glosses—jumbo metal tins packed with stunning, high shine colors. These generously stocked, oversized glosses became CARGO's signature item, distinctively setting them apart from the others. Makeup artists and the stars they worked on craved CARGO (and still do) for its longwearing formulas and amazing collection of colors.

Today, continual innovation in packaging and formulation has kept CARGO in the spotlight and earned the brand a multitude of awards such as the internationally renowned Red Dot award for product design and the industry-coveted IDSA award.

Products such as the foundation (in a pouch), BeachBlush (a blush and bronzer in one) and ColorCards (eyeshadows so slim they fit in your wallet) are considered groundbreaking in the industry.

CARGO products continue to be coveted by celebrities and the everyday woman alike. They have appeared in the most prestigious of goody bags - the Oscars®, the Emmys® and the Golden Globes® to name a few. In addition CARGO continues to give back. A portion of proceeds from their celebrity-designed lipsticks goes to benefit St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital. And the packaging of their lipsticks is biodegradable and sourced from renewable resources.

We are delighted to introduce Harvard Square to this beautiful cosmetics line.

Contact the Harvard Square Location today to schedule your appointment to try Cargo and see what the buzz is all about!
