| Established in 1930 by Charles and Joseph Revson and friend Charles Lachman (a chemist) to market nail enamel. In naming the company Charles Revson replaced the ‘S’ in his surname with an ‘L’ in honour of his leading chemist; it is now the largest retail cosmetic company in the world; in 1985 Ronald Perelman, an American billionaire, bought Revlon Inc. It also owns such companies as Halston, Almay, Boss and Charles of the Ritz. | ||||
