Since Cowgirl Diary has a facebook page that I regularly search for and comment at, I happened to find another really cool cowgirl website that I wanted to share with my readers. It was when I typed in “cowgirl” in the facebook search bar that Cowgirl Finesse popped up as one of the options. So out of curiosity, I clicked on the link and became a fan of their page.
Cowgirl Finesse sells all kinds of cowgirl accessories–belts, purses, boots, tack, jewelry, and more! At this time, they have over 50 sales representatives located all across Canada, and they hold kiosk booths at many horse events. You can also host a home party where they will bring all of their Cowgirl Finesse merchandise to your home and sell to your friends, giving you 15% off any products you buy. I’m hoping they expand down throughout the United States so I can join in the awesomeness!
As it so happened, as I was perusing their facebook page, they announced on their wall that they had a new Wild West Mineral Makeup line coming out soon, and they needed their fans to think up some catchy cowgirl names for all of the colors. That appealed to my creative brain, so I spent about an hour thinking about it, and this is what I submitted to them:
Eye Shimmer Color Names:
pink – “Sunset Glow”
tan – “Desert Dust”
green – “Sagebrush Sass”
blue – “Windblown Skies”
brown – “Latigo Luster”
lavendar – “Starlite Reflection”
gray – “Mountaintop Sparkle”
Lip Shimmer Color Names:
clear – “Melted Ice”
light pink – “Country Born”
bright pink – “Broncolicious”
peach – “Cowgirl Blaze”
coral – “WannaBe Wild”
red – “Renegade Red”
burgundy – “Western Wine”
Foundation Color Names:
light – “Windblown Sand”
medium light – “Dusty Saddle”
medium – “Sierra Desert”
olive – “Rawhide Riata”
dark – “Cheyenne Sundown”
Blush Color Names:
pink – “Wildflower Crush”
coral – “Western Sun”
mauve – “Dusk On The Hitchrail”
One other suggestion I have would be a perfume line targeting horse lovers, and name them “Horse Breath”, “Horse Sweat”, and “Leather”….those are smells all true cowgirls love!
I really enjoyed the project of naming the different makeup colors, and evidently they appreciated it because they sent me a set of the makeup as a thank-you gift! The set included mineral foundation powder labeled “Sierra Desert”, blush called “Western Sun”, “Buckaroo Barbie” eye shimmer, and lip gloss called “Saloon Gal”. I especially like the foundation, as it is so lightweight and feels good in these warm summer days. This is what they sent me:
My daughter thought it would be fun to do a makeover with my new Cowgirl makeup, so we had a good time getting all dolled up. I won’t share the “before” photos, because they are just too humbling, but this is me wearing my new Wild West Mineral Makeup from Cowgirl Finesse.
Thank you, Cowgirl Finesse, for bringing some sparkle to the western world!
