ENAMOURED

Celebrating 80 years of Revlon makeup, I attended the Enamoured: 80 Years of Revlon at the London Film Museum in Covent Garden a few weeks ago. It was only on for three days and I'm so happy to have caught this fleeting exhibit not only for the fabulous goody bag, but the innovative presentation of Revlon's history was super exciting to see! Curated by Ryan Lanji, the exhibit was full of colour and really brought to life the rich history that highlighted the innovative advertising techniques employed by this legendary beauty company.

The man who started it all... Mr. Charles Revson

In 1991, Christian Louboutin used a red nail polish to coat the underside of his heels as a prototype for his new collection - 20 years on, Monsieur Louboutin is now infamous for his iconic red soles.
