Tips to Come Up With A Winning Name:
What We Like: We like edgy, sexy, confident, fun and creative names at Whip Hand Cosmetics. Some of our existing product names include: “Give Good Face” Rosewater Tonic, “Brush Job” Makeup Brush Cleaner and “Strike It Rich” Oil Cleanser. Double-Entendres are always welcome and encouraged, but obscenity just won’t fly on a public label. It’s kind of like lingerie or rocking a short hemline: We like to titillate and tease with our product names and marketing, but still leave a little bit to the imagination
Understand the Product: This is a gentle, natural makeup remover for both makeup artists to use on their clients and any woman (or drag Queen) that needs to remove their makeup at the end of the day and prep their skin for the morning.
Understand the Whip Hand Cosmetics Brand and Philosophy: Understanding who we are as a company and our philosophies can help you come up with a better name.
Whip Hand Cosmetics is a line of luxury, hand-made artisan cosmetics made in Detroit with Attitude, for women by women. Founded and developed by veteran, award-winning professional makeup artist and licensed esthetician Riese Lauriat, Whip Hand Cosmetics offers innovative, trend-setting products for the face, eyes, lips and body that empower women of all walks-of-life, ages and ethnicities to Master the Art of Control. The collection will officially debut at IMATS NYC in April 2012.
Our marketing and advertising draws its inspiration from classic Pulp Fiction novel covers and celebrates the spirit of the modern, sexy and confident woman. Our tagline is “The Art of Control”, which is about encouraging women to own everything they do: From your heart, to your mind, to your soul, career, family and appearance. We think every woman can look and feel like a Super Model.
