Name That Collection Contest





Introducing: An exciting new contest for Bokeh Face Fans in two easy steps!




YOU get to name the next Bokeh Face eyeshadow collection! 

Step 1:  Tell me about your new collection in the comments.  Name up to 10 eyeshadows.  What is the inspiration behind it?  What do you envision when you imagine it?  Why did you pick what you did?  Get creative, and feel free to go into more depth on your personal site.  Just remember to include a link! 

Step 2:  Blog, tweet, or facebook about this contest.  Leave a link in your comment, as well.  


The winning entry will have a collection of eyeshadow designed and named around their idea.  

Here's the best part:  the winner will receive the entire collection as a prize.  

That's 10 original, fabulous Bokeh Face eyeshadows designed for YOU.  Just for sharing your vision.

The entries will be judged on their originality, humor, eccentricity... basically whichever I think is the best.  The collection will be available for sale in the Bokeh Face store (both as individual pieces and as a collection).

Entires will be closed on May 1, 2011.  Happy Naming!


ETA more details:  The collection will be loose powder eyeshadows, and there is no minimum number.  Although, I've always been a believer of "more is better" when it comes to eyeshadow colors ;-)  Also, you DO NOT have to choose the colors, although you certainly can if you want.

  2. Up to 10? Is there a bare minimum number? Is this for a set of loose eyeshadows, or can it be a pressed palette? Thanks for the contest, Natalie!

  6. My collection would be called "Picture, Perfect, Plastic" It's based on and greatly inspired by the fantabulous "Queen Of Beautiful" Jeffree Star. I took tid-bits of his lyrics and twisted them into colors for my collection. A pink theme runs strongly threw it but i tried to bring a lot of color into it for variety that could also be used together.

  10. Thanks for getting back to me!

    Here's my entry! My collection would be called 'Say What?!'

    The rationale behind it is that EVERYONE loves music, but I'm pretty sure that everyone has (at some point) heard something bizarre in place of what an actual song lyric is. Each of the ten colors' names that I've chosen come from a funny or weird misheard lyric from a song that I know. I've elaborated for each one on my blog, and I hope you enjoy reading it!

  12. I don't have a blog or personal page, so I have to put the goods right here! I also posted this to my profile on FB.

    My collection would be called the "Fairytale Collection" inspired by all the nights of reading those stories to my son. Fairytales are classics and my colours would be rich jewel tones with gold/bronze/copper shimmers added to them. Both the name and colour should illustrate the story that it's names from :)

    1) Spun gold- gold/beige shimmer
    2) Gingerbread Lane- molasses brown/bronze shimmer
    3) Falling Sky- dusty light blue with pink/gold duochrome
    4) Princess Pea- soft pink with green/gold duochrome
    5) Glass slipper- Vanilla gold shimmer
    6) Brick House- deep ox blood with bronze shimmer
    7) Sherwood- olive green with Bronze shimmer
    8) Arabian Nights- deep plum purple with gold
    9) Forbidden Fruit- Ruby red with gold
    10)Down the rabbit hole- deep smokey grey with gold
