Hailey Bieber’s dreams of getting a trademark to launch her very own cosmetics line has hit a bit of a snag, and the reason is because of her husband, Justin Bieber.
It comes after the 22-year-old supermodel filed paperwork to trademark “Bieber Beauty,” the name for a potential line of beauty products, back in April.
But now she’s reportedly been notified by the US Patent and Trademark Office that due to the similarity with her husband’s trademark on similar items, she’s been denied, per Page Six in a piece published Wednesday.

The office cited “likelihood of confusion” and “similarity of marks” to the “Baby” hitmaker’s trademark, which he has owned since 2009, according to The Blast. (RELATED: Report: Selena Gomez Takes Break From Spotlight Following Justin Bieber Breakup)
