Company Overview
History /Charles Revson became a cosmetics salesman by the toss of a coin -- tails, he’d apply for a job selling household appliances; heads, he’d answer an ad for a cosmetics salesman. /It was heads, and in 1931 Revson began selling nail polish to beauty salons. He painted his own nails with different colors so he wouldn’t need a color chart. Revson and his brother Joseph decided to start their own nail polish company with $300 /They hooked up with nail polish supplier Charles Lachman, and in 1932 began Revlon. Revson introduced matching lipsticks in 1940, with names like Kissing Pink and Fifth Avenue Red. /More opportunist than innovator, he let his competitors do the research and make the mistakes, and then he would make a better version of the product, out-packaging and out-advertising his rivals /In 1952, Revlon went public. To diversify and expand its markets, it began making acquisitions and selling its products overseas.
