We are officially in the golden era of the WNBA, and frankly, it's about damn time. From the media frenzy that surrounded the 2025 draft outfits to the players showcasing their best hair and makeup looks on both the red carpet and on the court (I'm still thinking about Paige Bueckers' perfect summery blonde hair) it's clear that pro female basketball players are finally receiving the attention they rightfully deserve.
Even if you're not the world's biggest sports fan, there's still plenty to cheer about when it comes to female athletes, especially when they start to command partnerships that mirror their male counterparts (even if their salaries are still lagging way, way behind the men by comparison). So, when Covergirl announced on May 15 that the brand had partnered with the Chicago Sky as their first official cosmetics sponsor, I couldn't help but feel incredibly pumped up. Beauty, sports, powerful women—what's not to love?
