		<description>Being in the biz, I can&#039;t be impartial about your first question. I&#039;m sure another answerer can give you first hand experience.
If you&#039;re wanting to protect the name for clothing, cosmetics, cosmetic brushes and jewelry - you have 4 different classes:
003 - cosmetics
014 - jewelry
021 - cosmetic brushes
025 - clothing
It&#039;s necessary to have comprehensive research on the mark done prior to filing to ensure that there is no possibility of infringing upon another party. 
This entails searches of the pending &amp; registered Federal and State trademark files as well as the US National Common-Law files. 
You can search the USPTO&#039;s Goods/Services Manual here: http://tess2.uspto.gov/netahtml/tidm.htm… Just enter specific keywords (e.g. clothing, jewelry, etc.) and you can see what goods fall into what classes.
Hope that helps! I wish you much success &amp; happiness in all your ventures!</description>
