BLOOMING

What this record means

The record shows that the mark “BLOOMING” is dead, having been abandoned by House of Lashes, a California corporation, because the applicant failed to respond to an Office action. The mark was filed on June 16 2021 under an intent‑to‑use basis and covered cosmetics, false eyelashes, adhesives for affixing false eyelashes, and non‑medicated serums for use on artificial eyelashes in class 003. A similar name would raise the closest concern in the cosmetics and eyelash‑related goods area, but the abandonment means the owner no longer holds a registered right, so the wording is not protected nationwide. The prosecution history shows a single non‑final action in March 2022 and an abandonment notice in September 2022; no enforcement activity is recorded. The latest status event is the abandonment on September 22 2022. For someone considering a similar name, the record suggests a moderate risk of confusion in the eyelash cosmetics niche, but the mark is no longer enforceable.
