How to Name Your Makeup Business

The name you choose for your makeup beauty business is one of the most important decisions you will make as a new cosmetic entrepreneur. It’s because your beauty company and product names have the power to communicate your unique and attractive benefits to customers. 

Powerful names can greatly impact your business’s perception in new clients’ minds.  I will help you come up with a catchy makeup business name to attract beauty customers to build your business.  

Come let’s get busy naming your makeup artistry, cosmetic line, beauty spa, nail enamel product line. …

Step 1 – Determine Branding Position

Before you can come up with a unique makeup business name you need to get clear on your branding position. What types of cosmetic services and products are you offering? Who are your target customers? What makes your beauty business special and different?  

A strong branding position will attract paying customers to your establishment that will appreciate your talent and refer their friends.  This will make your marketing easier because you will know exactly what your unique benefits are. Come along as we develop your makeup branding in two easy steps. 

Your Makeup Business Difference vs Competitors

What “position” do you want to claim a stake in your customer’s minds as opposed to your competitors? 

Is your business MORE fashion-forward, experts at stage makeup, focused on middle-age makeup tips, great at teaching makeup artistry, tops in pampering, fastest, most convenient?   

How You Want Customers to Identify Your Makeup Salon

What qualities do you want your customers to be reminded of when your makeup company names come to mind?

Are you the best makeup business for the most artistic makeup, innovative new looks, unique color collections, newest technology, luxurious ambiance?  

Example of Makeup Branding Position:

A trendy makeup artist service for stage professionals and video influencers. Highly trained in film and photo styling. Travels to locations within the Dallas metro area.

Please take a moment to think through these important questions and answer them by drafting your unique branding position as shown in the example above. 

Trust me having this statement will greatly assist you in the next step to naming your makeup business and brainstorming cute and sassy beauty business names. 

Step 2 – Brainstorm Name Ideas For Your Makeup Business

Armed with your branding position statement (discussed above) you are now ready to come up with a list of good makeup salon names using my pro brainstorming techniques below. Use some or all of the methods and create a long list of possible name ideas for your business. 

To create your most unique makeup business name, brainstorming is the first order of business.  The best place to start is inside your ideal client’s mind. Who are your target customers for your makeup salon’s services? 

Are they millennials, professionals, executives, busy moms, singles, teenagers, children and families, college students, young professionals, stylish middle-aged women, or men.

Once you have your perfect customer in mind, figuratively step into their shoes. This is important because you want to evaluate your name options through their eyes for the best results. 

Don’t fall into the trap of naive business owners who judge their makeup business name ideas using their own taste. You want to appeal to YOUR customers, not to yourself. 

Example – You own a makeup artist business and are 55 years old, however, your clients are primarily young Moms under 35. The names you like such as Elegant Looks will not appeal to this younger audience who will likely appreciate a hipper, trendier name such as Makeup Spot or Makeup Now. 

Begin your brainstorming by listing words about your services such as makeover, blush, foundation, artistry, foundation, lashes, eyes, etc. Include adjectives that you want to use to describe your beauty approach stunning, glamorous, gorgeous, fresh, chic, natural, trendy, fashionable etc. 

Play around with rhyming names or with words that all have the same starting letters such as Marvelous Makeup or Pretty Place. These types of phrases are unique and easy to remember.

Then continue to the next step where we will review each of these naming ideas against the checklist below to determine which is the absolute name for your new makeup business.

Combine Two Words for One Business Name

Blend personal names of two or more owners into an interesting compound business name.

Name Your Company with Your Personal Name  

Some beauty business owners elect to use their own personal name as their business name.

Generally, I do not recommend naming your business after yourself – except in a few instances.

FYI: Avoid using business owner initials as a business name. Some new entrepreneurs decide to use their initials as their company name. This is not a good idea, because names such as The ABC makeup business (Ann, Betty, and Cathi) is boring, easy to forget, hard to spell, and pronounce. NOT the type of name to become memorable in customer’s minds.

Use Acronyms to Come Up Company Name

An acronym is different from a name made up of owner initials because it creates a new word. 

Some examples; IBM is an initial name (for International Business Machines) which is spoken as each letter separately – I -B- M.

An example acronym name is LEGO (short for Leg Godt – danish for “play well”) and is pronounced as one word.

Use this online tool to brainstorm some creative acronym business names.

Experiment with Wordplay and Funny Puns

Puns are jokes that exploit the different possible meanings of words – a play on words. They can make funny and catchy business names.

Some examples of makeup service name puns;   Fairy Makeup, Daily Makeup, You’ve Got Makeup, Makeup Safe.

  Bad name for a makeup business = Jolie de Fille Beaute

• Easy to spell – Aim for a name that is easy to spell so customers can easily find you in telephone directories and online search engines. Also, the best names are of a short to medium length so they are easier to write and type. 
  
  Good name for a makeup business= Cosmetic Services

Plus research any negative meanings of the words you have in your company name. This is especially important if you serve foreign markets or ethnic customers. Speak to native speakers of their mother tongue to clear your name ideas.
