Concrete Minerals Electric Eye Primer giveaway!
Good news everyone!
After reading my last post, Emily of Concrete Minerals generously offered to give one of my readers a FREE tin of the Concrete Minerals Electric Eye Primer!
If you've been following my blog for a while, you know that this is my primer of choice, and what I use every day. I know Urban Decay Primer Potion is a holy grail item for many people, but having used that as well, I can say that for me personally the Concrete Minerals primer can totally hold it's own against UDPP. For me it works just as well, if not better, and since it's about half the price, it's what I'll continue to use! Here's my beat-up (AKA well-loved) tin.
I thought I'd show you a few swatches- a glittery loose shadow (Fyrinnae's "Lemming"), a pressed shimmery shadow (NYX's "Dune"), and a matte loose shadow (Aromaleigh's "Supermurgatroid"). On the left are the shadows without primer, and on the right they are over the Electric Eye Primer.
Now that you're properly convinced, here's how to enter: the only thing I ask is that you leave a comment with your e-mail address, and an idea (or a few) of what I should name my new kitty! Here's a picture of her:
She won't stop hiding right now, so this is the best I could do. ^_^ That's it! The giveaway will close on the 18th, and I will announce the winner on the 19th. This is open internationally! Good luck everyone, and thanks for reading!

What a sweet little girl!! When I got my kitties, they hid for a few days, and eventually came out. I think I'd name her Penelope. :)

Awww she looks adorable, I rather like the little spots on her nose!
ReplyDeleteHmm I'd name her Phoebe after the scaredy cat character from the Mrs PiggleWiggle books!

Woah that primer looks impressive! Your cat is so adorable! My cat used to hide all day until I came home when I first got him. I miss those days. I'm getting a Samantha from the picture; then you can call her Sam for short!

@Jennifer- it is open internationally! Thanks, I forgot to add that.
ReplyDeleteAww that's really so sweet of them and thank you for hoasting it ^^
ReplyDeleteAlthough this is probably a cliched name - my first thought was "Snowball"
e-mail is melovirus@gmail.com

She is so cute! My name suggestion in Sofie. I have 3 kitties of my own.... Cosmo, Cruiser, and Bacardi.. they are my babies!

Thanks!
Gorgeous kitty! I suggest Echo, Iris, Evie, or Cally.
ReplyDeleteMy email is fleurdoll [at] gmail [dot] com
Thank you!
What a beautiful little girl. How about Sassafras. Or something random like Pickle or Bean or Ms. Meowingtons (very classy).
ReplyDeleteAmanda[dot]holloway27[at]gmail[dot]com
I love kitties! I would name her Lilly; pretty name for a pretty cat. :3
ReplyDeletelove.kaname.sama@gmail.com
I clicked on this post because of the proffesor Farnsworth's pic, lol. Then I just realized you're doing a giveaway. So awesome!
ReplyDeleteI'd name the kitty Leia. Star wars cliche I know, but if I had a female cat, that would be my first choice!
my email is ulfianarsm (at) gmail (dot) com
sorry, typo! that should have been ulfiarsm06 (at) gmail (dot) com
ReplyDeleteWonderful little giveaway!!! Your new little kitty is so cute, wish I had pets, lol. For some names, I suggest Leia, Cupcake, Indie or Lily.
ReplyDeleteemail: lisang91 AT hotmail DOT com
Wow, this is lovely, the primer giveaway but even more the little one...
ReplyDeleteShe may seem shy, but cats are so cool and laidback and fierce..
I'd call her Aurian after a favourite heroin of mine :-) (Maggie Furey series, love them)
skinnyjeans (at) gmail (dot) com
Yay this is great! Count me in.
ReplyDeleteCute kitty! I would name her Hidey (read: Hai D), because she won't stop hiding. :)
monikalintang@hotmail.com
If she likes hiding, you should call her Peekaboo !
ReplyDeleteIf I don't win the primer, I am so buying it !
Thanks for sharing !

ReplyDeleteI still haven't tried this stuff yet!
For kitteh: Aura! I dunno why, just sounds pretty even if it isn't a proper name :)
Such a cute kitty :) I like the names Daisy, Victoria, and sugar
ReplyDeleteluckeepinkstar@gmail.com
For some reason, Angelina popped into my head for the kitty! extemter at hotmail dot com
ReplyDeleteI like Zoe and Lola!
ReplyDeletekimberlymarquez@gmail.com
Gratz! Concrete Minerals makes a good primer :)
ReplyDeleteSnowball or Chloe are my suggestions for the name.
ReplyDeletelmlow@shaw.ca
Snowy, Snowball or Badger. Haha. Lovely kitten btw!
ReplyDeletegardenofshadowsstore at gmail dot com
Love the kitty, she looks like a sweetheart. Impressive primer. I must say I've been a fan of CM eyeshadow for a while, but haven't tried their primer yet.
ReplyDeleteetenneydomanski at gmail dot com
I like the name Sprinkles.
ReplyDeleteMy email address is mandatrouble@gmail.com
Glad I've found a new blog to enjoy. :D
Adorable cat :D
ReplyDeleteIt seems like that cat is stealthy, so the name I picked was Senka.
I think it's cute, feminine for an adorable female kitty, and it means Shadow in Russian. Perfect for a sneaky rogue like cat :P

Me, I'm a sucker for Ancient Egyptian names for cats. I've got (had) two, Akasha and Osiris, with Osiris passing away a few months ago.
ReplyDeleteYour baby looks like she's going to be all over the place, making as much noise as possible once she's over her fears. :> How about Banshee?
gothgirl_prophecy@yahoo.com
I love concrete minerals, too <3
ReplyDeleteYour kitty is too cute! I like cute, somewhat unusual names for pets (though my baby ended up named Bubbles... after the powerpuff girl). My suggestions would be Miso, or Beaker off the top of my head. My mom's all time favorite cat name is really cute, too... it's Ciate or Siete.. you pronounce it like each letter of the word cat. C-A-T. Yeahhh... hehe.

Hi, Heather!
ReplyDeleteI would call this little cutie Sneaky...
sweetheart2004 at ukr dot com
what a cute kitty! (: I'm feeling she's a Jinx. And if you want to make her sound cutesy when you call her you can say "Jinxy! Come here!" :P
ReplyDeleteejhtan at gmail dot com
soo cute :] and the difference that primer makes is amazing! i think the kitty looks like a Rasputin..who cares if it's a boy's name. haha.
ReplyDeleteachuff at seawolf dot sonoma dot com
Your new cat is soo adorable. I think real-people names are kind of cute for girl cats, like Zoe or Camille. Or if you have a favorite movie, I have tons of friends who have named their cats after characters, haha.
ReplyDeleteMy email is: inhermakeupbag@gmail.com.
Thank you!
sooo cute. i have 3 cats, so i know how precious it is to name them. I'd name her cosmic!
ReplyDeleteretrourbanrainbow@gmail.com
i think she should be named cici. :)the name just popped on to my head when i saw her.

Ooh please enter me, I'd love to try out that primer! hotmetalchicky@hotmail.com :)
ReplyDeleteI am rubbish with naming pets, my Kizzy was already 6 when I got her so she kept her name. Some name suggesting are:
Peekaboo
Shy (because she's hiding and I love that as a name)
Puss (my friend called all cats Puss, love it!)
Lolly (as in Lolcat)
I love the name cupcake for a kitty.
ReplyDeletefunnyfacebeauty@gmail.com
Hi,
ReplyDeleteshe is so cute.I name her Scarlett.
andrasescu.camelia@gmail.com
Awww cute kitty!
ReplyDeleteI think Snikklefritz or Buttons would be cute :D
sarahlmenard@hotmail.com
Well this is fun!
ReplyDeleteShe looks like a Persia to me. Something about her expression in that photo!
Thanks for your blog and the giveaway contest. I've been thinking about trying this primer myself so I appreciate the review.
cmaruca111@hotmail.com
Furball! :-)
ReplyDeletegalen uk AT google mail DOT com
I'd name her cuppycake. :)
ReplyDeleteShe just looks so cute and cuddly even tho shes hiding.
and my email address is triciafitz66@yahoo.com
Hmmm I think you should name her Calypso or Calista! Calypso means "she that conceals" and Calista means "most beautiful". You could nickname her "Cali" or "Caly" (however you want to spell it haha) Calista has always been a favorite name of mine. It's so pretty and unique!
ReplyDeletevioletqueen15 {at} yahoo {dot} com
She seems like a Clover girl to me. ...But then, this is from someone who owns a little girly-cat named 'Booger', so who can say my judgement is to be trusted? ;)
ReplyDeletenevermoreghouls@gmail.com
How funny! I was just looking at Concrete Minerals because I know you are always raving about them!! nvbeautyblogger@gmail.com
ReplyDeleteThe first name that popped into my head was Sasha! I also love the name Charlotte! Yes, I like giving my pets "people" names! She's very cute! =)
Wow! I found this post just looking for a primer (I need something to keep Hi Fi sparkles from flying around my eyes) and i found the GA!!
ReplyDeleteI'd call your pretty kitteh Ombra (shade, in italian) because she prefers to avoid being in the spotlight :-)
my email: maisenzasmalto(at)gmail(dot)com
Mischief! That's such a cute name for her :)
ReplyDeleteMy email: myfacebutbetter@gmail.com
I just discovered the CM eye primer about a month ago...and it is AMAZING! My first-ever holy grail item. (I wear it all the time, even without eye makeup - because my lids are so crazy oily.) I will NEVER be without it!
ReplyDeleteAnd ... names that come to mind for your new furkid: Iris (someone already suggested that though), Opal and Amber. (I have 5 boy cats: Cooper, Calvin, Apollo, Mercury and Noah. Apollo and Merc are twins.)
My e-addy: augustajosephine [at] yahoo [dot] com
I noticed this is your go-to primer and I've been wanting to try it, so winning this would be awesome!
ReplyDeleteMy email is Darkest(dot)Sunrise(at)gmail(dot)com
Some good kitty names that I like are- Mixi, Milly, Spatz, Molly, Mimi, (love "M" names)Percy, Chaz, Gemma... Honestly I think the best pet names are nicknames that you give them because of their personality or behavior. Like Stinky, my Chihuahua. That nickname stuck even though we originally named him Chili ;D

ReplyDeleteOh, what a cutie! How much and how do you use your CM primer? I have a sample of it, but I never know how much or how little to use because it's solid!
