SKINORGANICS

What this record means

The record shows that the SKINORGANICS application is dead – it was abandoned on November 7, 2007 after the applicant, Tanline Australia Pty Ltd, failed to answer a non‑final Office action. The filing covered only International Class 3, specifically a long list of cosmetics and skin‑care products such as astringents, cleansing creams, facial and body cosmetics, topical skin sprays and related soaps, toners and pre‑moistened wipes. Because the registration never issued, the USPTO file does not give Tanline control over the word “SKINORGANICS” in other categories, but the listed cosmetics would be the closest area where a similar name could raise a record‑based concern. The prosecution history shows a notice of a pseudo‑mark and a non‑final action in April 2007, followed by the abandonment notice in November 2007; no opposition, cancellation or court activity appears in the file. I'd treat this as a modest concern if you plan to use a similar name for cosmetics, but the risk is limited to the goods listed.
