THIS week Pillow Mag was invited to preview Revlon’s Enamoured exhibition, celebrating 80 years in beauty.
Charles Revson started Revlon with his brother Joseph and chemist Charles Lachman (who contributed the ‘L’) in 1932.
They were the first American cosmetics brand to use an African-American model in their campaigns and have featured everyone from Cindy Crawford, Audrey Hepburn and a 13-year-old Milla Jovovich in their ad campaigns.
The company started when Charles created a new type of nail lacquer, using pigment instead of dye.
The Enamoured exhibition, held at London Film Museum, Covent Garden Piazza, celebrated the last eight decades of this revolutionary beauty brand.
Curated by Ryan Lanji, the show took inspiration from the cosmetics giant and brought the company to life via an array of different art installations.
It also included vintage pieces from the Revlon’s rich history.
Enamoured closes on Sunday, so make sure you head down there this weekend to check it out.
Enamoured: 80 Years of Revlon will run from 30th November to 2nd December at the London Film Museum, Covent Garden, 45 Wellington Street, London WC2E 7BN.Â
30th November: 10.00am – 19.00pm.
1st and 2nd December: 10.00am – 18.00pm.
