Subject to Completion, dated March 28, 2003. PROSPECTUS 3,913,044 Shares REVLON, INC. CLASS A COMMON STOCK ---------------- We are distributing at no charge to the holders of our Class A and Class B common stock transferable subscription rights to purchase up to an aggregate of 21,739,130 shares of our Class A common stock at a cash subscription price of $ per share. This rights offering is comprised of an offering of subscription rights to purchase up to 3,913,044 shares of our Class A common stock to all holders of our Class A and Class B common stock, other than MacAndrews & Forbes, one of our affiliates, and the distribution to MacAndrews & Forbes of subscription rights to purchase up to 17,826,086 shares of our Class A common stock. However, MacAndrews & Forbes has agreed not to exercise or sell the subscription rights that it receives and has indicated that it does not intend to purchase any subscription rights on the open market. Instead, MacAndrews & Forbes has agreed to purchase the shares of our Class A Common Stock that it would otherwise have been entitled to receive pursuant to its basic subscription privilege in a private placement direct from us, under an investment agreement described in this prospectus. This rights offering is being made to help fund a portion of the costs and expenses of the stabilization and growth phase of our plan discussed in this prospectus. The total purchase price of shares offered in this rights offering and the offering of shares to MacAndrews & Forbes described above will be approximately $50,000,000. You will not be entitled to receive any subscription rights unless you are a stockholder of record as of the close of business on , 2003. The subscription rights will expire if they are not exercised by 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on , 2003, the expected expiration date of this rights offering. We, in our sole discretion, may extend the period for exercising the subscription rights. We will extend the duration of the rights offering as required by applicable law, and may choose to extend it if we decide that the degree of participation in this rights offering by holders of our common stock other than MacAndrews & Forbes is less than the level we desire and we believe that extending the duration of this rights offering may increase the level of participation by such holders or if we decide that changes in the market price of our Class A common stock warrant an extension. However, because MacAndrews & Forbes has agreed to back-stop this rights offering, we will not need to extend the exercise period to increase the overall level of participation because the back-stop arrangement ensures that we will receive total gross proceeds of $50 million. Subscription rights that are not exercised by the expiration date of this rights offering will expire and will have no value. You should carefully consider whether or not to exercise or sell your subscription rights before the expiration date. Shares of our Class A common stock are quoted on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol "REV." The last sale price of our Class A common stock on March 27, 2003 was $2.80 per share. We anticipate that the subscription rights will be traded on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol "REV.RT."

PROSPECTUS SUMMARY The following summary highlights selected information from this prospectus and may not contain all of the information that is important to you. This prospectus includes specific terms of this rights offering, as well as information regarding our business. We encourage you to read this prospectus in its entirety. You should pay special attention to the "Risk Factors" section of this prospectus. All references to "we," "our," "ours," and "us," or "Revlon" in this prospectus are to Revlon, Inc. and its subsidiaries, unless otherwise indicated. However, in the descriptions of the subscription rights and related matters, these terms refer solely to Revlon, Inc. and not to any of our subsidiaries. All U.S. market share and market position data herein for our brands are based upon retail dollar sales, which are derived from AC Nielsen data. AC Nielsen measures retail sales volume of products sold in the U.S. mass-market distribution channel. Such data represent AC Nielsen's estimates based upon data gathered by AC Nielsen from market samples and are therefore subject to some degree of variance. Additionally, as of August 4, 2001, AC Nielsen's data does not reflect sales volume from Wal-Mart, Inc. OUR COMPANY We manufacture, market and sell an extensive array of cosmetics and skin care, fragrances and personal care products. Revlon is one of the world's best-known names in cosmetics and is a leading mass-market cosmetics brand. We believe that our global brand name recognition, product quality and marketing experience have enabled us to create one of the strongest consumer brand franchises in the world. Our products are sold worldwide and are marketed under such well-known brand names as Revlon, Colorstay, Revlon Age Defying, Skinlights and Ultima II, as well as Almay in cosmetics; Almay Kinetin, Vitamin C Absolutes, Eterna 27, Ultima II, and Jeanne Gatineau in skin care; Charlie in fragrances; and High Dimension, Flex, Mitchum, Colorsilk, Jean Nate and Bozzano in personal care products. Revlon was founded by Charles Revson, who revolutionized the cosmetics industry by introducing nail enamels matched to lipsticks in fashion colors over 70 years ago. Today, we have leading market positions in a number of our principal product categories in the U.S. mass-market distribution channel, including the lip, face makeup and nail enamel categories. We also have leading market positions in several product categories in certain markets outside of the U.S., including in Australia, Canada, Mexico and South Africa. Our products are sold in more than 100 countries across five continents. The Company's Plan Our plan consists of three main components: (1) the cost rationalization phase; (2) the stabilization and growth phase; and (3) the accelerated growth phase. Phase 1 -- Cost Rationalization In 1999 and 2000, we faced a number of strategic challenges. Accordingly, through 2001 we focused our plan on lowering costs and improving operating efficiency. During 2001, we implemented several key elements of this phase of our plan. For example, we: o reduced departmental general and administrative expenses in our operations; o reduced manufacturing and warehousing square footage by approximately 55% during the period from November 2000 to December 31, 2001; o closed our in-house advertising division and consolidated all advertising for our Revlon and Almay brands with two prominent advertising agencies (and further consolidated into a single agency in 2002); and o implemented revised trade terms with our U.S. customers intended to increase sell-through of our products, reduce merchandise returns and claims for damages and drive market growth. 1
We believe that our actions during 2000 and 2001 lowered our cost structure overall and improved our manufacturing and operating efficiency, creating a platform for the stabilization and growth stage of our plan. Phase 2 -- Stabilization and Growth In February 2002, we announced the appointment of Jack L. Stahl, former president and chief operating officer of The Coca-Cola Company, as our new President and Chief Executive Officer. Following the appointment of Mr. Stahl, we undertook an extensive review and evaluation of our business to establish specific integrated objectives and actions to advance the next stage in our plan. As a result of this review, we established three principal objectives: o creating and developing the most consumer-preferred brands; o becoming the most valuable partner to our retailers; and o becoming a top company where people choose to work. We also conducted detailed evaluations and research of the strengths of the Revlon brand (and we are continuing to conduct similar evalutions and research for our other major brands); our advertising and promotional efforts; our relationships with our retailers and consumers; our retail in-store presence; and the strength and skills of our organization. As a result, we developed the following key actions and investments to support the stabilization and growth phase of our plan: o Increase advertising and media spending and effectiveness. We expect to increase our media spending and advertising support. We will also seek to improve the effectiveness of our marketing, including our advertising, by, among other things, ensuring consistent messaging and imagery in our advertising, in the graphics included in our wall displays and in our other marketing materials. o Increase the marketing effectiveness of our wall displays. Beginning in the first quarter of 2003, we intend to make significant improvements to our retail wall displays by streamlining our product assortment and reconfiguring product placement, which we believe will optimize cross-selling among our various product categories on the wall displays and make the displays easier to merchandise and stock. We also intend to continue to roll out our new wall displays, which we began in 2002. In addition, we intend to enhance merchandiser coverage to improve in-store stock levels and continue to develop our tamper evident program to reduce damages. We also intend to work with our retail customers to improve replenishment of our products on the wall displays and to minimize out-of-stocks at our customers. o Adopt revised pricing strategies. We believe that we can increase sales by selectively adjusting prices on certain stock keeping units, or SKUs, to better align our pricing with product benefits and competitive benchmarks. o Further strengthen our new product development process. We are developing a cross-functional new product development process intended to optimize our ability to bring to market our new product offerings to ensure that we have products in key trend categories. o Implement a comprehensive program to develop and train our employees. We are implementing a comprehensive program to further develop the management, leadership and communication skills of our employees, which we will regularly assess as part of our goal to become a top company where people choose to work. In December 2002, we announced that we would accelerate the implementation of the stabilization and growth phase of our plan. We recorded charges of approximately $100 million in the fourth quarter of 2002 and currently expect to record additional charges not to exceed $60 million during 2003 and 2004. These charges relate to various aspects of the stabilization and growth phase of our plan, primarily stemming from sales returns and inventory writedowns from a selective reduction 2
of SKUs, reduced distribution of the Ultima II brand, allowances stemming from selective price adjustments on certain products, professional expenses associated with the development of, and research in relation to, and execution of the stabilization and growth phase of our plan and writedowns associated with reconfiguring existing wall displays at our retail customers. Phase 3 -- Accelerated Growth We intend to capitalize on the actions taken during the stabilization and growth phase of our plan, with the objective of increasing revenues and profitability over the long term. RECENT DEVELOPMENTS In December 2002, our principal stockholder, MacAndrews & Forbes Holdings Inc. ("MacAndrews Holdings"), a corporation wholly owned through Mafco Holdings Inc. ("Mafco Holdings" and, together with MacAndrews Holdings, "MacAndrews & Forbes"), by Ronald O. Perelman, proposed providing us with up to $150 million in cash in order to help fund a portion of the costs and expenses associated with implementing the stabilization and growth phase of our plan and for general corporate purposes. Our board of directors appointed a special committee of independent directors to evaluate the proposal made by MacAndrews & Forbes. The special committee reviewed and considered the proposal and negotiated enhancements to the terms of the proposal. In February 2003, the enhanced proposal was recommended to our board of directors by the special committee and approved by our full board. This rights offering is part of the enhanced proposal. As a holder of our common stock, MacAndrews & Forbes will receive its pro rata subscription rights in this rights offering and would also be entitled to exercise an over-subscription privilege. However, MacAndrews & Forbes has agreed not to exercise either its basic or its over-subscription privilege. Instead, MacAndrews & Forbes has agreed to purchase the shares of our Class A common stock that it would otherwise have been entitled to receive pursuant to its basic subscription privilege (equal to approximately 83% of the subscription rights distributed in this rights offering, or $41.5 million) in a private placement direct from us. In addition, if any shares remain following the exercise of basic subscription privileges and over-subscription privileges by other right holders, MacAndrews & Forbes will back-stop this rights offering by purchasing the remaining shares of Class A common stock offered but not purchased by other stockholders (up to approximately 17%, or an additional $8.5 million), also in a private placement. In accordance with the enhanced proposal, MacAndrews & Forbes has also provided a $100 million term loan to our subsidiary, Revlon Consumer Products Corporation, referred to herein as "Products Corporation." If, prior to the consummation of this rights offering, Products Corporation has fully drawn the MacAndrews & Forbes $100 million term loan and the implementation of the stabilization and growth phase of our plan causes us to require some or all of the $50 million of funds that we would raise from this rights offering, MacAndrews & Forbes has agreed to advance us these funds prior to the closing of this rights offering by purchasing up to $50 million of newly-issued shares of our Series C preferred stock, which would be redeemed with the proceeds we receive from this rights offering (this investment in our Series C preferred stock is referred to in this prospectus as the "$50 million Series C preferred stock investment"). The MacAndrews & Forbes $100 million term loan has a final maturity date of December 1, 2005 and interest on such loan of 12.0% is not payable in cash, but will accrue and be added to the principal amount each quarter and be paid in full at final maturity. We expect that we will issue the subscription rights and consummate this rights offering in the second quarter of 2003. Based on this expectation, we anticipate that we will draw on the MacAndrews & Forbes $100 million term loan before this rights offering is consummated in order to continue the implementation of the stabilization and growth phase of our plan and for general corporate purposes. However, we do not currently anticipate that we will require that MacAndrews & Forbes make the $50 million Series C preferred stock investment. Additionally, MacAndrews & Forbes has also agreed to provide Products Corporation with an additional $40 million line of credit during 2003, which amount will increase to $65 million on January 3
1, 2004, which we refer to as the "$40-65 million line of credit", and which will be available to Products Corporation through December 31, 2004, provided that the MacAndrews & Forbes $100 million term loan is fully drawn and MacAndrews & Forbes has purchased an aggregate of $50 million of our Series C preferred stock (or if we have consummated this rights offering and redeemed any outstanding shares of Series C preferred stock). The $40-65 million line of credit will be available through December 31, 2004 and will bear interest payable in cash at a rate of the lesser of (i) 12.0% and (ii) 0.25% less than the rate payable from time to time on Eurodollar loans under Products Corporation's existing credit agreement (which rate, after giving effect to the amendment to Products Corporation's existing credit agreement discussed below, is 8.25%, as of March 1, 2003). We do not currently expect that we will draw on the $40-65 million line of credit during 2003. In connection with the transactions with MacAndrews & Forbes described above, and as a result of our operating results for the fourth quarter of 2002 and the effect of the acceleration of the implementation of the stabilization and growth phase of our plan, we entered into an amendment in February 2003 of our existing credit agreement with our bank lenders and secured waivers of compliance with certain covenants under our existing credit agreement. In particular, EBITDA (as defined in our existing credit agreement) was $35.2 million for the four consecutive fiscal quarters ended December 31, 2002, which was less than the minimum of $210 million required under the EBITDA covenant of our credit agreement for that period, and our leverage ratio was 5.09:1.00, which was in excess of the maximum ratio of 1.4:1.00 permitted under the leverage ratio covenant of our credit agreement for that period. Accordingly, we sought and secured waivers of compliance with these covenants for the fourth quarter of 2002 and, in light of our expectation that the continued implementation of the stabilization and growth phase of our plan would affect our ability to comply with these covenants during 2003, we also secured an amendment to eliminate the EBITDA and leverage ratio covenants for the first three quarters of 2003 and a waiver of compliance with such covenants for the four quarters ending December 31, 2003 expiring on January 31, 2004. The amendment to our existing credit agreement also included the substitution of a minimum liquidity covenant requiring us to maintain a minimum of $20 million in liquidity from all available sources at all times through January 31, 2004 and certain other amendments to allow for the MacAndrews & Forbes $100 million term loan, the $40-65 million line of credit, this rights offering, and the implementation of the stabilization and growth phase of our plan, including specific exceptions from the limitations under the indebtedness covenant to permit such investments and to exclude the proceeds from such investments from the mandatory prepayment provisions of the credit agreement, and to increase the maximum limit on capital expenditures from $100 million to $115 million for 2003. The amendment also increased the applicable margin on loans under the existing credit agreement by 0.5%, the incremental cost of which to us, assuming the credit agreement is fully drawn, would be $1.1 million from February 5, 2003 through the end of 2003. -------- Our principal executive offices are located at 625 Madison Avenue, New York, New York 10022.

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS ABOUT THE RIGHTS OFFERING Q: What is this rights offering? A: This rights offering is a distribution, at no charge, to holders of our Class A and Class B common stock of one transferable subscription right to purchase one additional share of our Class A common stock for each shares of Class A or Class B common stock owned as of __________, 2003 (or the "rights offering record date"), for a total of approximately subscription rights. The maximum gross proceeds of this rights offering will be $50,000,000, including at least $ from MacAndrews & Forbes in relation to the purchase of 17,826,086 shares pursuant to a private placement (excluding any proceeds received from it pursuant to the back-stop). Q: What is a subscription right? A: Each full subscription right is a right to purchase one share of our Class A common stock and carries with it a basic subscription privilege and an over-subscription privilege. Q: How many shares may I purchase if I exercise my subscription rights? A: You will receive one transferable subscription right for each ___ shares of Class A and Class B common stock that you owned on __________, 2003, the rights offering record date. Each subscription right contains the basic subscription privilege and the over-subscription privilege. Q: What is the basic subscription privilege? A: The basic subscription privilege of each subscription right entitles you to purchase one share of our Class A common stock at the subscription price of $_______ per share. Q: What is the over-subscription privilege? A: The over-subscription privilege of each subscription right entitles you, if you fully exercise your basic subscription privilege, to subscribe for additional shares of our Class A common stock at the same subscription price per share on a pro rata basis if any shares are not purchased by other holders of subscription rights (except MacAndrews & Forbes) under their basic subscription privileges as of the expiration date. "Pro rata" means in proportion to the number of shares of our Class A common stock that you and the other subscription rights holders have purchased by exercising your basic subscription privileges on your common stock holdings. Although MacAndrews & Forbes, as a holder of Class A and Class B common stock, would otherwise be entitled to this over-subscription privilege, to enhance your over-subscription privileges, it has agreed to waive this right to enhance the over-subscription privilege of our other stockholders. Q: What if there are an insufficient number of shares to satisfy the over-subscription requests? A: If there are an insufficient number of shares of our Class A common stock available to fully satisfy the over-subscription requests of rights holders, subscription rights holders who exercised their over-subscription privilege will receive the available shares pro rata based on the number of shares each subscription rights holder subscribed for under the basic subscription privilege. Any excess subscription payments will be returned, without interest or deduction, promptly after the expiration of this rights offering. Q: Why are you engaging in this rights offering? A: This rights offering is being made to help fund a portion of the costs and expenses of the stabilization and growth phase of our plan. MacAndrews & Forbes has proposed to provide us up to $150 million to help fund a portion of the costs and expenses associated with implementing the stabilization and growth phase of our plan and for general corporate purposes in the form of various investments, including the purchase of our Class A common stock in connection with this rights offering. See "--Recent Developments." 6
The proceeds from these various investments will be used to fund the implementation of the stabilization and growth phase of our plan, which involves increasing advertising and media spending, increasing the marketing effectiveness of our wall displays, including by streamlining the number of our SKUs, selectively adjusting prices on certain of our products, optimizing product availability to consumers and further strengthening our new product development process. Q: What happens if I choose not to exercise my subscription rights? A: You will retain your current number of shares of Class A common stock even if you do not exercise your subscription rights. However, if you do not exercise your subscription privileges, the percentage of our Class A common stock that you own will decrease, and your voting and other rights will be diluted to the extent that other stockholders exercise their basic and over-subscription rights. Q: Can your board of directors cancel this rights offering? A: Yes. Our board of directors may decide to cancel this rights offering at any time prior to the expiration of the rights offering and for any reason. If we cancel this rights offering, any money received from subscribing stockholders will be refunded promptly, without interest or deduction. Q: When will this rights offering expire? A: The subscription rights will expire, if not exercised, at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on , 2003, unless we decide to extend this rights offering until some later time. See "The Rights Offering--Expiration of the Rights Offering and Extensions and Termination." The subscription agent must actually receive all required documents and payments before that time and date. There is no maximum duration for this rights offering. Q: How do I exercise my subscription rights? A: You may exercise your subscription rights by properly completing and signing your subscription rights certificate. Your subscription rights certificate, together with full payment of the subscription price, must be received by the subscription agent on or prior to the expiration date of this rights offering. If you use the mail, we recommend that you use insured, registered mail, return receipt requested. If you cannot deliver your subscription rights certificate to the subscription agent on time, you may follow the guaranteed delivery procedures described under "The Rights Offering--Guaranteed Delivery Procedures." Q: May I transfer or sell my subscription rights if I do not want to purchase any shares? A: Yes. The subscription rights will be evidenced by transferable subscription rights certificates. The subscription rights are transferable until the close of business on the last trading day preceding the expiration date of this rights offering. However, the subscription agent will only facilitate subdivisions or transfers of the actual subscription rights certificates until 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on , 2003, three business days prior to the expiration date. Furthermore, the subscription rights are a new issue of securities with no established trading market and we cannot assure you that a market for the subscription rights will develop, or if a market does develop, how liquid it will be. Therefore, we cannot assure you that you will be able to sell any of your subscription rights. See "The Rights Offering--Method of Transferring and Selling Subscription Rights." Q How may I sell my subscription rights? A: You may sell your subscription rights by contacting your broker or the institution through which you hold your Class A common stock. In addition, if you are a record holder of our common stock, you may sell your subscription rights through the subscription agent. 7
Q: Will I be able to trade my subscription rights on the New York Stock Exchange? A: Yes. We anticipate that the subscription rights will be listed for trading on the New York Stock Exchange, or NYSE, under the symbol "REV.RT" and we expect that the subscription rights may be purchased or sold until the close of business on the last trading day preceding the expiration date of this rights offering. Our Class A common stock is listed on the NYSE. On , 2003, the last trading day before the date of this prospectus, the closing price of our Class A common stock on the NYSE was $___ per share. Q: What should I do if I want to participate in this rights offering or sell my subscription rights but my shares are held in the name of my broker, custodian bank or other nominee? A: If you hold shares of our common stock through a broker, custodian bank or other nominee, we will ask your broker, custodian bank or other nominee to notify you of this rights offering. If you wish to sell or exercise your subscription rights, you will need to have your broker, custodian bank or other nominee act for you. To indicate your decision, you should complete and return to your broker, custodian bank or other nominee the form entitled "Beneficial Owner Election Form." You should receive this form from your broker, custodian bank or other nominee with the other rights offering materials. You should contact your broker, custodian bank or other nominee if you do not receive this form, but you believe you are entitled to participate in this rights offering. Q: What should I do if I want to participate in this rights offering or sell my subscription rights but my shares are held in the Revlon 401(k) plan? A: If shares of our Class A common stock are held by our 401(k) plan for your account under our 401(k) plan as of the rights offering record date, you will be notified by us of this rights offering. If you wish to sell or exercise some or all of your subscription rights, you will need to notify the trustee of the 401(k) plan of your decision and the trustee will act for you. To indicate your decision, you should properly complete and return to the trustee by 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on __, 2003 (which is seven days prior to the expiration date of this rights offering) the form entitled "401(k) Plan Participant Election Form." If you elect to exercise some or all of your subscription rights, you must ensure that the total amount of the funds required for such exercise have been allocated to an account created by you, or which you currently maintain, in the Stable Value Fund (an existing investment election under the 401(k) plan) no later than , 2003, seven days prior to the expiration date of this rights offering, in order to satisfy the subscription price payable by you upon exercise of your subscription rights. On , 2003, the trustee, to exercise subscription rights on your behalf in the rights offering, will transfer such funds from your Stable Value Fund account to the subscription agent. If these funds are insufficient to exercise all of your subscription rights in accordance with your election, the subscription rights will be exercised to the maximum extent possible with the amount you have invested in your Stable Value Fund account and, if an active trading market for the rights is maintained, the trustee will attempt to sell for your account any remaining rights that are not exercised because of insufficient funds. You should receive the "401(k) Plan Participant Election Form" with the other rights offering materials. You should contact the information agent if you do not receive this form but you believe you are entitled to participate in this rights offering with respect to shares held for your account under the 401(k) plan. Q: What should I do if I want to participate in this rights offering or sell my subscription rights, but I am a stockholder with a foreign address or a stockholder with an APO or FPO address? A: The subscription agent will not mail subscription rights certificates to you if you are a stockholder of record as of the rights offering record date with an address outside the U.S. or with an Army Post Office or a Fleet Post Office address.

Q: Are there any conditions to my right to exercise my subscription rights? A: Yes. This rights offering is subject to certain limited conditions. Please see "The Rights Offering--Conditions to the Rights Offering." Q: What is the recommendation of your board of directors regarding this rights offering? A: Neither we, our board of directors nor its special committee are making any recommendation as to whether or not you should exercise or sell your subscription rights. You are urged to make your decision based on your own assessment of this rights offering and after considering all of the information in this prospectus, including the "Risk Factors" section of this prospectus and all of the information incorporated by reference in this prospectus. You should not view MacAndrews & Forbes' agreement to purchase from us in a private placement the full number of shares of our Class A common stock that it would otherwise have been entitled to subscribe for in this rights offering in accordance with its basic subscription privilege or to back-stop this rights offering as a recommendation or other indication that the exercise or sale of your subscription rights is in your best interests. Q: How was the $____ per share subscription price established? A: The subscription price per share for the rights offering was set by our board of directors based on the recommendation of the special committee of independent directors of our board of directors after negotiations between the special committee and MacAndrews & Forbes. The board set the subscription price at a formula equal to eighty percent (80%) of the greater of the closing price per share of our Class A common stock on the New York Stock Exchange on (i) the trading day before the date that our board of directors approved this rights offering, which was $2.88 per share, and (ii) the record date of this rights offering. In determining the subscription price, the special committee and our board of directors considered a number of factors, including: our need for capital; our business prospects; the need to offer shares at a price that would be attractive to our investors relative to the current trading price of our Class A common stock; an analysis of prior rights offerings; the historic and current market price of our Class A common stock; general conditions in the securities market and the difficult market conditions prevailing for the raising of equity capital; our operating history; and the liquidity of our Class A common stock. 9
Q: Is exercising my subscription rights risky? A: The exercise of your subscription rights involves risks. Exercising your subscription rights means buying additional shares of our Class A common stock and should be considered as carefully as you would consider any other equity investment. You should carefully consider the information under the heading "Risk Factors" and all other information included or incorporated by reference in this prospectus before deciding to exercise or sell your subscription rights. Q: Am I required to subscribe in this rights offering? A: No. Q: After I exercise my subscription rights, can I change my mind and cancel my purchase?

RISK FACTORS An investment in our Class A common stock involves risks. You should carefully consider the following factors and all of the information contained elsewhere in this prospectus and in the documents incorporated by reference herein before deciding to exercise or sell your subscription rights. RISKS RELATED TO THE COMPANY We have a limited operating history under our plan and cannot assure you that it will be successful or enable us to achieve or maintain profitable operations. We have recently implemented material changes in our plan intended to improve operating results, and we are in the process of implementing the stabilization and growth phase of our plan. We expect to experience significant increases in sales as a result of implementing the stabilization and growth phase of our plan. If we fail to successfully execute the stabilization and growth phase of our plan effectively, we may not achieve expected increases in sales, which could adversely affect our liquidity. Additionally, it is possible that the changes may have unanticipated consequences that could be adverse to our business. The stabilization and growth phase of our plan involves a number of significant changes, including: o increasing our advertising and media spending and effectiveness; o increasing the marketing effectiveness of our wall displays to optimize cross-selling and make the wall displays easier to merchandise, and continuing to roll out our new wall displays which we began in 2002; o streamlining our product assortment and reconfiguring product placement on our wall displays; o selectively adjusting prices on certain products; o enhancing merchandiser coverage and working with our retail customers to improve in-store stock levels; o further strengthening our new product development process; and o implementing a comprehensive program to develop and train our employees. Each of these components of the stabilization and growth phase of our plan carries significant risks, as well as the possibility of unexpected consequences. Potential risks include: o increased advertising and media expenses and our attempts to make such advertising and media more effective may fail to achieve their intended effects; o our changes to our wall displays may fail to achieve their intended effects; o we may experience returns exceeding our expectations as a result of our reduction of SKUs; o we may incur costs exceeding our expectations as a result of the roll out of our new wall displays or the new wall displays may fail to achieve their intended effects; o our selective price adjustments may fail to achieve their intended effect of increasing sales of those products; o we will incur increased costs arising from the stabilization and growth phase of our plan to increase in-store merchandiser coverage, and the increased merchandiser coverage may not achieve its intended effect; o our strengthened new product development process may not be as successful as we contemplated, and consumers may not accept our new product offerings to the degree we envisioned; o our competitors could increase their spending on advertising and media and increase their new product development spending or take other steps in response to the stabilization and 12
growth phase of our plan, which could impact the effectiveness of the stabilization and growth phase of our plan and our ability to achieve our objective of increased revenues and profitability over the long term; and o we may experience difficulties or delays in implementing a comprehensive program to develop and train our employees. We are a holding company with no business operations of our own and are dependent on our subsidiaries to pay certain expenses and dividends. We are a holding company with no business operations of our own. Our only material asset is all of the outstanding capital stock of Products Corporation, through which we conduct our business operations. As such, our net (loss) income has historically consisted predominantly of our equity in the net (loss) income of Products Corporation, which for 2000, 2001 and 2002 was approximately $(128.0) million, $(152.2) million and $(281.8) million, respectively, which excluded approximately $1.7 million, $1.5 million and $4.7 million, respectively, in expenses primarily related to being a public holding company. We will be dependent on the earnings and cash flow of, and dividends and distributions from, Products Corporation to pay our expenses incidental to being a public holding company. We cannot assure you that Products Corporation will generate sufficient cash flow to pay dividends or distribute funds to us because, for example, Products Corporation may not generate sufficient cash or net income because of decreases in its revenues or increases in its expenses; state laws may restrict or prohibit the issuance of dividends or making of distributions unless Products Corporation has sufficient surplus or net profits, which Products Corporation may not have; or contractual restrictions, including negative covenants contained in our various debt instruments, may prohibit or limit such dividends or distributions. The terms of Products Corporation's existing bank credit agreement, the 12% Senior Secured Notes due 2005 (the "12% Notes"), the 9% Senior Notes due 2006 (the "9% Notes"), the 8 1/2% Senior Notes due 2006 (the "8 1/2% Notes"), 8 5/8% Senior Subordinated Notes due 2008 (the "8 5/8% Notes"), the MacAndrews & Forbes $100 million term loan and the $40-65 million line of credit generally restrict Products Corporation from paying dividends or making distributions, except that Products Corporation is permitted to pay dividends and make distributions to us, among other things, to enable us to pay expenses incidental to being a public holding company, including, among other things, professional fees such as legal and accounting fees, regulatory fees such as SEC filing fees, fees associated with this filing and other miscellaneous expenses related to being a public holding company and, subject to certain limitations, to pay dividends or make distributions in certain circumstances to finance the purchase by Revlon of its Class A common stock in connection with the delivery of such Class A common stock to grantees under the Revlon, Inc. Fourth Amended and Restated 1996 Stock Plan, or the "Stock Plan." Our substantial indebtedness could adversely affect our operations and flexibility, our ability to service our debt and your investment in our Class A common stock. We have a substantial amount of outstanding indebtedness. As of December 31, 2002, our total indebtedness was approximately $1,775.1 million. In addition, on February 5, 2003, MacAndrews & Forbes agreed to provide Products Corporation with the MacAndrews & Forbes $100 million term loan through December 1, 2005. Additionally, MacAndrews & Forbes has agreed to provide Products Corporation with the additional $40-65 million line of credit through December 31, 2004. We anticipate that we will draw on the MacAndrew & Forbes $100 million term loan before this rights offering is consummated in order to continue the implementation of the stabilization and growth phase of our plan and for general corporate purposes, although we do not currently anticipate that we will draw on the $40-65 million line of credit during 2003. We have substantial debt maturing in 2005 that will require refinancing, consisting of $246.3 million (assuming the maximum amount is borrowed) under our existing credit agreement and $363.0 million of Products Corporation's 12% Notes, as well as amounts, if any, borrowed under the MacAndrews & Forbes $100 million term loan and the $40-65 million line of credit. We are subject to the risks normally associated with substantial indebtedness, including the risk that our operating 13
revenues will be insufficient to meet required payments of principal and interest, and the risk that we will be unable to refinance existing indebtedness when it becomes due or that the terms of any such refinancing will be less favorable than the current terms of such indebtedness. Our substantial indebtedness could also: o limit our ability to fund the costs and expenses of implementing the stabilization and growth phase of our plan, future working capital, capital expenditures, advertising or promotional expenses, new product development costs, purchases of wall displays, acquisitions, investments, restructuring programs and other general corporate requirements; o require us to dedicate a substantial portion of our cash flow from operations to payments on our indebtedness, thereby reducing the availability of our cash flow for the implementation of the stabilization and growth phase of our plan and other general corporate purposes; o place us at a competitive disadvantage compared to our competitors that have less debt; o limit our flexibility in responding to changes in our business and the industry in which we operate; and o make us more vulnerable in the event of adverse economic conditions or a downturn in our business. Restrictions and covenants in debt agreements limit our ability to take certain actions and impose consequences in the event of failure to comply. The indentures governing Products Corporation's outstanding indebtedness and its existing bank credit agreement and the agreements governing the MacAndrews & Forbes $100 million term loan and the $40-65 million line of credit contain a number of significant restrictions and covenants that limit our ability, among other things, to: o borrow money; o use assets as security in other borrowings or transactions; o pay dividends on stock or purchase stock; o sell assets; o enter into certain transactions with affiliates; and o make certain investments or acquisitions. In addition, our existing bank credit agreement further requires us to maintain certain financial ratios, meet certain financial tests and restricts our ability and the ability of our subsidiaries to make capital expenditures. These financial covenants affect our operating flexibility by, among other things, restricting our ability to incur expenses and indebtedness that could be used to fund the costs of implementing the stabilization and growth phase of our plan and to grow our business, as well as to fund general corporate purposes. For example, it was necessary to amend our existing bank credit agreement to permit this rights offering, the MacAndrews & Forbes $100 million term loan and the $40-65 million line of credit. Our ability to service our debt and meet our cash requirements depends on many factors. We currently anticipate that operating revenue, cash on hand, funds available for borrowing under our existing bank credit agreement and under the MacAndrews & Forbes $100 million term loan, the proceeds from this rights offering (which may be advanced to us as a result of the $50 million Series C preferred stock investment prior to the consummation of this rights offering if we have fully drawn the MacAndrews & Forbes $100 million term loan) and the $40-65 million line of credit, will be sufficient to cover our operating expenses, including cash requirements in connection with our operations, the stabilization and growth phase of our plan and our debt service requirements for 2003. The MacAndrews & Forbes $100 million term loan, the $40-65 million line of credit and the proceeds from this rights offering are intended to help fund the stabilization and growth phase of our plan and to decrease the risk that would otherwise exist if we would fail to meet our debt and 14
ongoing obligations as they become due in 2003. However, if our anticipated level of revenue growth is not achieved because of, for example, decreased consumer spending in response to weak economic conditions or weakness in the cosmetics category, increased competition from our competitors or because our marketing plans are not as successful as we anticipate, or if our expenses associated with implementation of the stabilization and growth phase of our plan exceed the anticipated level of expenses, our current sources of funds may be insufficient to meet our cash requirements. Additionally, in the event of a decrease in demand for our products or reduced sales or lack of increases in demand and sales as a result of the stabilization and growth phase of our plan, such development, if significant, could reduce our operating revenues and could adversely affect our ability to achieve certain financial covenants under the credit agreement. If such funds are insufficient to cover our expenses, we could be required to adopt one or more alternatives listed below. For example, we could be required to: o delay the implementation of or revise certain aspects of the stabilization and growth phase of our plan; o reduce or delay purchases of wall displays or advertising and promotional expenses; o reduce or delay capital spending; o delay, reduce or revise restructuring programs; o sell additional equity securities; o sell assets or operations; o restructure our indebtedness; o seek additional capital contributions or loans from MacAndrews & Forbes, our other affiliates and/or third parties; and/or o reduce other discretionary spending. If we are required to take any of these actions, it could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and/or results of operations, including our ability to grow our business. In addition, we cannot assure you that we would be able to take any of these actions because of a variety of commercial or market factors or constraints in our debt instruments, including, for example, the possibility that we would not reach an agreement with our bank lenders on refinancing terms that are acceptable to us before the waiver of certain of our financial covenants expires on January 31, 2004, market conditions being unfavorable for an equity or debt offering, or that the transactions may not be permitted under the terms of our various debt instruments then in effect because of restrictions on the incurrence of debt, incurrence of liens, asset dispositions and related party transactions. In addition, such actions, if taken, may not enable us to satisfy our cash requirements if the actions do not generate a sufficient amount of additional capital. Should any such risks materialize, they could materially and adversely affect your investment in our Class A common stock. Other than MacAndrews & Forbes' obligations pursuant to the Investment Agreement described in this prospectus, the MacAndrews & Forbes $100 million term loan and the $40-65 million line of credit, none of our affiliates has any obligation to contribute or loan to us any capital. We recently had to obtain amendments to, and waivers under, our existing credit agreement and we expect that we will need to seek further amendments to, or waivers of, certain covenants under our existing credit agreement in 2004. As a result of this rights offering, the MacAndrews & Forbes $100 million term loan, the $40-65 million line of credit and the Series C preferred stock investment, if any, and as a result of our operating results for the fourth quarter of 2002 and the effect of acceleration of our implementation of the stabilization and growth phase of our plan, we recently secured waivers of compliance with the EBITDA and leverage ratio covenants under our credit agreement for the four quarters ended December 31, 2002 and, in light of our expectation that the continued implementation of the stabilization and growth phase of our plan would affect our ability to comply with these covenants during 2003, we also secured an amendment to eliminate the EBITDA and leverage ratio covenants 15
for the first three quarters of 2003 and a waiver of compliance with such covenants for the four quarters ending December 31, 2003 expiring on January 31, 2004. In addition, the amendment to our credit agreement also included, among other things, the substitution of a minimum liquidity covenant requiring us to maintain a minimum of $20 million of liquidity from all available sources at all times through January 31, 2004 and an amendment to increase the maximum limit on our capital expenditures from $100 million to $115 million for 2003. We do not expect that our operating results, including after giving effect to various actions under the stabilization and growth phase of our plan, will allow us to satisfy the minimum EBITDA and leverage ratio covenants for the four consecutive fiscal quarters ending December 31, 2003. The minimum EBITDA required to be maintained by Products Corporation under the credit agreement is $230 million for each of the four consecutive fiscal quarters ending on December 31, 2003 (which covenant was waived through January 31, 2004), March 31, 2004, June 30, 2004 and September 30, 2004, and $250 million for any four consecutive fiscal quarters ending December 31, 2004 or thereafter. The leverage ratio covenant under the credit agreement will permit a maximum ratio of no more than 1.10:1.00 for any four consecutive fiscal quarters ending on or after December 31, 2003 (which limit was waived through January 31, 2004 for the four fiscal quarters ending December 31, 2003). This means that we expect that we will need to seek a further amendment to our existing credit agreement or waiver of such financial covenants or take one or more further actions referred to below before January 31, 2004. While we expect that our bank lenders will consent to such amendment or waiver request, we cannot assure you that they will or that they will do so on terms which are favorable to us. If we fail to secure the amendment or waiver we could be required to take one or more of the following actions: o refinance the existing credit agreement; o sell additional equity securities and repay the credit agreement; o sell assets or operations and repay the credit agreement; and/or o seek additional capital contribution and/or loans from MacAndrews & Forbes, our other affiliates and/or third parties and repay the credit agreement. In the event that we were unable to secure such a waiver or amendment and we were not able to refinance or repay the credit agreement, our inability to meet the financial covenants for the four consecutive fiscal quarters ending December 31, 2003 would constitute an event of default under the credit agreement, which would permit the bank lenders to accelerate the credit agreement, which in turn would constitute an event of default under the indentures governing our debt if the amount accelerated exceeds $25.0 million and such default remains uncured within 10 days of notice from the trustee under the applicable indenture. We depend on our Oxford, North Carolina facility for production of a substantial portion of our products and disruptions to this facility could affect our sales in the U.S. and, to a lesser extent, in Latin America, Europe and the Far East. Following our rationalization and consolidation of our global manufacturing, a substantial portion of our products were produced at our Oxford, North Carolina facility. Significant unscheduled downtime at this facility due to equipment breakdowns, power failures, natural disasters or any other cause could adversely affect our ability to provide products to our customers, which may affect our sales in the U.S. and, to a lesser extent, in Latin America, Europe and the Far East. Although we maintain insurance, including business interruption insurance, that we consider to be adequate under the circumstances, there can be no assurance that we will not incur losses beyond the limits or outside the coverage of our insurance. We depend on a supply agreement with a Maesteg, Wales facility for production of our products for the European market and loss of the agreement, or disruption to the facility, could adversely affect our sales in Europe. In July 2001, we sold our principal European manufacturing facility in Maesteg, Wales and entered into a long-term supply contract with the purchaser under which the purchaser produced 16
substantially all Revlon color cosmetics and other products for the European market. In October 2002, after experiencing production difficulties with this supplier, we and the supplier terminated the long-term supply agreement and entered into a new agreement. This new agreement has significantly reduced volume commitments and, among other things, we agreed to loan such supplier approximately $2.0 million and the supplier can earn performance-based payments of approximately $6.3 million over a four-year period contingent on the supplier achieving specific production service level objectives. As a part of this new arrangement, we and the supplier agreed that the manufacturing of certain product lines would transfer from the Maesteg, Wales facility to our other plants or other third party suppliers. If the supplier is unable to fulfill its obligations under this new supply contract because of manufacturing difficulties or disruption at the Maesteg, Wales facility or for any other reason, or if we encounter difficulties in transferring certain product lines out of the Maesteg, Wales facility to our other plants or other third party suppliers, this could adversely affect our sales in the European market, which could have an adverse effect on our overall results of operations and financial condition. We depend on a limited number of customers for a large portion of our net sales and the loss of one or more of these customers could reduce our net sales. For 2000, 2001 and 2002 Wal-Mart, Inc. and its affiliates accounted for approximately 16.5%, 19.7% and 22.5%, respectively, of our net sales. We expect that for 2003 and future periods, Wal-Mart and a small number of other customers will, in the aggregate, account for a large portion of our net sales. The loss of Wal-Mart or one or more of our other customers that may account for a significant portion of our net sales, or any significant decrease in sales to these customers or any significant decrease in our retail display space in any of these customers' stores, could reduce our net sales and therefore could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. In January 2002, Kmart Corporation filed a petition for reorganization under Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code. On January 24, 2003, Kmart announced that it had filed its proposed plan of reorganization with the U.S. Bankruptcy Court and that it was positioned to emerge from bankruptcy on or about April 30, 2003. Throughout 2002 and continuing into 2003, Kmart continued to close underperforming stores. Kmart accounted for less than 5% of our net sales in 2002. Although we plan to continue doing business with Kmart for the foreseeable future and, based upon the information currently available, believe that Kmart's bankruptcy proceedings and store closings will not have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations, there can be no assurances that further deterioration, if any, in Kmart's financial condition will not have such an effect on us. Competition in the consumer products business could materially adversely affect our net sales and our market share. The consumer products business is highly competitive. We compete on the basis of numerous factors. Brand recognition, product quality, performance and price, product availability at the retail stores, and the extent to which consumers are educated on product benefits have a marked influence on consumers' choices among competing products and brands. Advertising, promotion, merchandising and packaging, and the timing of new product introductions and line extensions also have a significant impact on buying decisions, and the structure and quality of the sales force, as well as consumer consumption of our products, affect in-store position, wall display space and inventory levels in retail outlets. An increase in the amount of competition that we face could have a material adverse effect on our market share. We experienced declines in our market share in the U.S. mass-market in color cosmetics since the end of the first half of 1998 through the first half of 2002, including a decline in our color cosmetics market share from 32.0% in the second quarter of 1998 to 22.3% in the second quarter of 2002, and there can be no assurance that declines in market share will not occur in the future. In addition, we compete in selected product categories against a number of multinational manufacturers, some of which are larger and have substantially greater resources than we do, and which may therefore have the ability to spend more aggressively on advertising and marketing and more flexibility to respond to changing business and economic conditions than we do. Some of our 17
competitors have increased their spending on discounting and advertising and promotional activities in U.S. mass-market cosmetics. In addition to products sold in the mass-market and demonstrator-assisted channels, our products also compete with similar products sold door-to-door or through mail-order or telemarketing by representatives of direct sales companies. Our foreign operations are subject to a variety of social, political and economic risks and we may be affected by foreign currency fluctuation. As of December 31, 2002, we had operations based in 17 foreign countries. We are exposed to the risk of changes in social, political and economic conditions inherent in operating in foreign countries, including those in Asia, Eastern Europe and Latin America. Such changes include changes in the laws and policies that govern foreign investment in countries where we have operations, as well as, to a lesser extent, changes in U.S. laws and regulations relating to foreign trade and investment. In addition, fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates may affect the results of our operations and the value of our foreign assets, which in turn may adversely affect reported earnings and, accordingly, the comparability of period-to-period results of operations. During 2002, our operations in Latin America contributed 8.4% of our total net sales, have been adversely affected by political and economic conditions and foreign currency devaluations. Changes in currency exchange rates may affect the relative prices at which we and foreign competitors sell products in the same market. Our net sales outside of the U.S. and Canada for 2000, 2001 and 2002 were 38.0%, 31.9% and 32.1%, respectively, of our total net sales. In addition, changes in the value of relevant currencies may affect the cost of certain items required in our operations. We enter into forward foreign exchange contracts to hedge certain cash flows denominated in foreign currency. At December 31, 2002, the notional amount of our foreign currency forward exchange contracts was $10.8 million. We can offer no assurances as to the future effect of changes in social, political and economic conditions on our business, results of operations and financial condition. Terrorist attacks, such as the attacks that occurred in New York and Washington, D.C. on September 11, 2001, and other attacks, acts of war or military actions, such as military actions in Iraq, may adversely affect the markets in which we operate, our operations and our profitability. On September 11, 2001, the U.S. was the target of terrorist attacks of unprecedented scope. These attacks have contributed to major instability in the U.S. and other financial markets and reduced consumer confidence. These terrorist attacks, the military response and future developments, or other military actions, such as the recent ongoing military actions in Iraq, may adversely affect prevailing economic conditions, resulting in reduced consumer spending and reduced demand for our products. These developments subject our worldwide operations to increased risks and, depending on their magnitude, could reduce our net sales and therefore could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition. Shares of our common stock and the capital stock of Products Corporation are pledged to secure various of our and our affiliates' obligations and foreclosure upon these shares could result in the acceleration of debt under our bank credit agreement and could have other consequences. The capital stock of Products Corporation held by us is pledged to secure our guarantee under Products Corporation's existing bank credit agreement and Products Corporation's 12% Notes. A foreclosure upon any shares of our or Products Corporation's common stock could constitute a change of control under the indenture governing the 12% Notes and the indentures governing Products Corporation's other outstanding indebtedness. A change of control constitutes an event of default under Products Corporation's existing bank credit agreement, which would permit the lenders to accelerate Products Corporation's existing bank credit agreement. In addition, holders of Products Corporation's 12% Notes, 9% Notes, 81/8% Notes and 85/8% Notes may require Products Corporation to repurchase its notes under those circumstances. Products Corporation may not have sufficient funds at the time of the change of control to repay in full the borrowings under Products Corporation's existing bank credit agreement or to repurchase the 12% Notes and the other outstanding notes. As of December 31, 2002, 4,186,104 shares of our Class A common stock owned by REV Holdings were pledged by REV Holdings to secure $80.5 million principal amount of REV Holdings' 18
12% Senior Secured Notes due 2004. From time to time, additional shares of our Class A common stock or shares of intermediate holding companies between us and Mafco Holdings may be pledged to secure obligations of Mafco Holdings or its affiliates. A default under REV Holdings' obligations which are secured by the shares pledged by REV Holdings could cause a foreclosure with respect to such shares of our Class A common stock pledged by REV Holdings. Attempting to accomplish all of the elements of the stabilization and growth phase of our plan simultaneously may prove to be burdensome and may cause disruption or difficulties in our business. We have recently implemented the stabilization and growth phase of our plan, which includes increasing advertising and media spending and effectiveness, increasing the marketing of our wall displays, including by streamlining the number of our SKUs, selectively adjusting prices on certain products, optimizing product availability to consumers and further strengthening our new product development process. Attempting to accomplish all of these elements simultaneously may prove to be a financial and operational burden on us. If we are unable to successfully accomplish all of the elements of the stabilization and growth phase of our plan simultaneously, it could delay or impede our achieving our objectives of increasing revenues and could therefore have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition. MacAndrews & Forbes has the power to direct and control our business and Delaware law provisions and control by MacAndrews & Forbes could make a third-party acquisition of our company difficult. MacAndrews & Forbes currently indirectly owns approximately 83% of our outstanding Class A and Class B common stock and controls approximately 97% of the combined voting power of our common stock, and could own as much as % of our outstanding Class A and Class B common stock and control as much as % of the combined voting power of our common stock after this rights offering, assuming the back-stop is exercised in full. MacAndrews & Forbes currently has, and after the rights offering will continue to have, the ability to elect all of the members of our board of directors, and, after this rights offering, will continue to be able to direct and control our policies and those of our subsidiaries, including mergers, sales of assets and similar transactions. Control by MacAndrews & Forbes may discourage certain types of transactions involving an actual or potential change of control of Revlon, including transactions in which the holders of our common stock might receive a premium for their shares over prevailing market prices. We are a Delaware corporation. The Delaware General Corporation Law contains provisions that could make it more difficult for a third party to acquire control of our company. Future sales of our Class A common stock may depress our stock price. No prediction can be made as to the effect, if any, that future sales of our Class A common stock, or the availability of Class A common stock for future sales, will have on the market price of our Class A common stock. Sales in the public market of substantial amounts of our Class A common stock, or the perception that such sales could occur, could adversely affect prevailing market prices for our Class A common stock. Pursuant to the Investment Agreement, MacAndrews & Forbes was granted registration rights with respect to any shares of our Class A common stock that it acquires when it purchases in a private placement the number of shares it would have otherwise been entitled to purchase in this rights offering and under the back-stop. Pursuant to an existing registration rights agreement, MacAndrews & Forbes has the right to require us to register all or part of our Class A common stock owned by it and shares of our Class A common stock issuable upon conversion of our Class B common stock and Series B preferred stock owned by it. If MacAndrews & Forbes exercises these registration rights and the shares that it owns are registered and become freely tradable, the number of shares of our Class A common stock that are available for sale will be substantially increased, which could adversely affect the prevailing market prices for our Class A common stock. RISKS RELATED TO THE RIGHTS OFFERING Stockholders who do not fully exercise their subscription rights will have their interests diluted by MacAndrews & Forbes and those other stockholders who do exercise their subscription rights. If you choose not to exercise your basic subscription right in full, your relative ownership interest in us will be diluted to the extent other stockholders exercise their basic subscription and 19
over-subscription rights. This rights offering and the private placement of shares to MacAndrews & Forbes will result in our issuance of up to an additional 21,739,130 shares of our Class A common stock. In addition, although MacAndrews & Forbes has agreed not to exercise its over-subscription right, they have committed to back-stop this rights offering by purchasing, in a private placement from us, all of the shares of Class A common stock that are not purchased by other stockholders in this rights offering, which would increase their overall ownership position. If no subscription rights holders other than MacAndrews & Forbes exercise their subscription rights in this rights offering, the transactions contemplated by the Investment Agreement, including the MacAndrews & Forbes back-stop, will result in the issuance of an additional 21,739,130 shares of our Class A common stock to MacAndrews & Forbes. Subscription rights holders who do not exercise or sell their subscription rights will lose any value in their subscription rights. The subscription price determined for this rights offering is not an indication of our value. The subscription price per share for the rights offering was set by our board of directors based on the recommendation of the special committee of independent directors of our board of directors after negotiations between the special committee and MacAndrews & Forbes. The board set the subscription price at a formula equal to eighty percent (80%) of the greater of the closing price per share of our Class A common stock on the New York Stock Exchange on (i) the trading day before the date that our board of directors approved this rights offering, which was $2.88 per share, and (ii) the record date for this rights offering. In determining the subscription price, the special committee and our board of directors considered a number of factors, including: our need for capital; our business prospects; the need to offer shares at a price that would be attractive to our investors relative to the current trading price of our Class A common stock; an analysis of prior rights offerings; the historic and current market price of our Class A common stock; general conditions in the securities market and the difficult market conditions prevailing for the raising of equity capital; our operating history; and the liquidity of our Class A common stock. The subscription price does not necessarily bear any relationship to the book value of our assets, past operations, cash flows, losses, financial condition or any other established criteria for value. You should not consider the subscription price as an indication of the value of our Class A common stock. After the date of this prospectus, our Class A common stock may trade at prices above or below the subscription price. You may not revoke your subscription exercise and could be committed to buying shares above the prevailing market price. Once you exercise your subscription rights, you may not revoke the exercise. The public trading market price of our Class A common stock may decline before the subscription rights expire. If you exercise your subscription rights and, afterwards, the public trading market price of our Class A common stock decreases below the subscription price, you will have committed to buying shares of our Class A common stock at a price above the prevailing market price. Our Class A common stock is traded on the NYSE under the symbol "REV" and the last reported sales price of our Class A common stock on the NYSE on March 27, 2003 was $2.80 per share. Moreover, you may be unable to sell your shares of Class A common stock at a price equal to or greater than the subscription price you paid for such shares. If we cancel this rights offering, neither we nor the subscription agent will have any obligation to you except to return your subscription payments. If we elect to withdraw or terminate this rights offering, neither we nor the subscription agent will have any obligation with respect to the subscription rights except to return, without interest or deduction, any subscription payments we or the subscription agent received from you. If you do not act promptly and follow subscription instructions, your exercise of subscription rights may be rejected. Stockholders who desire to purchase shares in this rights offering must act promptly to ensure that all required forms and payments are actually received by the subscription agent prior to , 2003, the expiration date of this rights offering. If you are a beneficial owner of shares, you must act promptly to ensure that your broker, custodian bank or other nominee acts for you and that all 20
required forms and payments are actually received by the subscription agent prior to , 2003. We shall not be responsible if your broker, custodian or nominee fails to ensure that all required forms and payments are actually received by the subscription agent prior to the , 2003 expiration date of this rights offering. If you fail to complete and sign the required subscription forms, send an incorrect payment amount, or otherwise fail to follow the subscription procedures that apply to your exercise in this rights offering, the subscription agent may, depending on the circumstances, reject your subscription or accept it only to the extent of the payment received. Neither we nor our subscription agent undertakes to contact you concerning an incomplete or incorrect subscription form or payment, nor are we under any obligation to correct such forms or payment. We have the sole discretion to determine whether a subscription exercise properly follows the subscription procedures. If you are a participant in our 401(k) plan, you must act promptly to ensure that all required forms are received by the trustee and that the total amount of the funds required for an exercise of your subscription rights have been allocated to an account created by you, or which you currently maintain, in the Stable Value Fund no later than ___, 2003, which is seven days prior to the expiration date of this rights offering. See "The Rights Offering--Special Instructions for Participants in Our 401(k) Plan." No prior market exists for the subscription rights. The subscription rights are a new issue of securities with no established trading market and we cannot assure you that a market for the subscription rights will develop or, if a market does develop, as to how liquid it will be. The subscription rights are transferable until the close of business on the last trading day prior to the expiration date of this rights offering, at which time they will cease to have any value. If you wish to sell your subscription rights or the subscription agent or trustee tries to sell subscription rights on your behalf in accordance with the procedures discussed in this prospectus but such rights cannot be sold, and either you subsequently provide the subscription agent or trustee with instructions to exercise the subscription rights and your instructions are not timely received by the subscription agent or trustee or you do not provide any instructions to exercise your subscription rights, then the subscription rights will expire and will have no further value. If you make payment of the subscription price by personal check, your check may not have cleared in sufficient time to enable you to purchase shares in this rights offering. Any personal check used to pay for shares to be issued in this rights offering must clear prior to the expiration date of this rights offering, and the clearing process may require five or more business days. If you choose to exercise your subscription rights, in whole or in part, and to pay for shares by personal check and your check has not cleared prior to the expiration date of this rights offering, you will not have satisfied the conditions to exercise your subscription rights and will not receive the shares you attempted to purchase and you will lose the value of your subscription rights. 21

In addition, the documents incorporated in this prospectus by reference contain other forward-looking statements. Statements that are not historical facts, including statements about our beliefs and expectations, are forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements can be identified by, among other things, the use of forward-looking language, such as "believes," "expects," "estimates," "projects," "forecast," "may," "will," "should," "seeks," "plans," "scheduled to," "anticipates" or "intends" or the negative of those terms, or other variations of those terms or comparable language, or by discussions of strategy or intentions. A number of important factors could cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statement. In addition to factors that may be described in our filings with the SEC, including this filing, the following factors, among others, could cause our actual results to differ materially from those expressed in any forward-looking statements made by us: o difficulties or delays in developing and/or presenting our increased advertising programs and/or improving the effectiveness of our advertising; o difficulties or delays in developing and introducing new products or failure of customers to accept new product offerings and/or in further strengthening our new product development process; o difficulties or delays or unanticipated costs associated with improving the marketing effectiveness of our wall displays; o difficulties or delays in implementing our plans to streamline our product assortment and reconfigure product placement on our wall displays, adjust prices of our products and/or improve customers' stock levels by enhancing merchandiser coverage and reducing damages by continuing to develop our tamper evident program; o difficulties or delays in implementing comprehensive programs to develop and train our employees; o unanticipated circumstances or results affecting our financial performance, including changes in consumer preferences, such as reduced consumer demand for our color cosmetics and other current products, and actions by competitors, including business combinations, technological breakthroughs, new products offerings, promotional spending and marketing and promotional successes, including increases in market share; o effects of and changes in political and/or economic conditions, including inflation, monetary conditions and military actions, and in trade, monetary, fiscal and tax policies in international markets; o unanticipated costs or difficulties or delays in completing projects associated with the stabilization and growth phase of our plan or difficulties or delays in capitalizing on the actions taken during the stabilization and growth phase of our plan to increase our revenues and profitability over the long term; o difficulties, delays or unanticipated costs or less than expected savings and other benefits resulting from our restructuring activities; o lower than expected operating revenues, the inability to secure capital contributions or loans from MacAndrews & Forbes, our other affiliates and/or third parties or the unavailability of 23
funds under our existing bank credit agreement, the MacAndrews & Forbes $100 million term loan, the $50 million Series C preferred stock investment, if any, the $40-65 million line of credit, if any, from restructuring indebtedness, selling assets or operations or the sale of additional shares of our common stock or our cash flow requirements differing from our expectations that would require us to have MacAndrews & Forbes make the $50 million Series C preferred stock investment and/or require us to draw on some or all of the $40-65 million line of credit or from this rights offering; o higher than expected operating expenses, working capital expenses, wall display costs, capital expenditures, restructuring costs or debt service payments; o combinations among significant customers or the loss, insolvency or failure to pay debts by a significant customer or customers; o difficulties or delays in responding to competitive responses to the implementation of the stabilization and growth phase of our plan; o difficulties, delays or unanticipated costs in the execution of elements of the stabilization and growth phase of our plan; o an inability to refinance our debt maturing in 2005; o difficulties in, or an inability to execute, our plan to secure a further waiver or amendment of our credit agreement; and o difficulties or delays in consummating this rights offering.

UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL DATA The following sets forth the historical consolidated financial data for the year ended December 31, 2002, as adjusted to give pro forma effect to this rights offering and amendments to the credit agreement, the MacAndrews & Forbes $100 million term loan and the $40-65 million line of credit as if such transactions had been consummated on January 1, 2002, and balance sheet data as of December 31, 2002, as adjusted to give pro forma effect to the rights offering and amendments to the credit agreement, the MacAndrews & Forbes $100 million term loan and the $40-65 million line of credit as if such transactions had occurred on December 31, 2002. The pro forma adjustments are based upon available information and certain assumptions that management believes are reasonable. The pro forma financial data do not purport to represent our results of operations or our financial position that actually would have occurred had such transactions been consummated on the aforesaid dates. The financial data should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and the notes to those financial statements included in the documents incorporated by reference in this prospectus. YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2002 ------------------------------- ACTUAL AS ADJUSTED -------------- -------------- (DOLLARS IN MILLIONS, EXCEPT PER SHARE AMOUNTS) STATEMENT OF OPERATIONS (A): Operating loss ............................................ $ (114.9) $ (114.9) Interest expense, net ..................................... 155.5 156.3 Net loss .................................................. (286.5) (288.6) Weighted average number of shares outstanding (b) ......... 52,199,468 Basic and diluted loss per common share ................... $ (5.49) BALANCE SHEET DATA (C): Total assets .............................................. $ 939.5 $ 942.6 Total stockholders' deficiency ............................ (1,640.8) (1,593.4) (a) Pro forma results reflect the increase in interest expense of $0.8 million or $ pro forma basic and diluted loss per common share and the incremental amortization of debt issuance costs of $1.3 million or $ pro forma basic and diluted loss per common share for the year ended December 31, 2002, as if the amendments to the credit agreement, the MacAndrews and Forbes $100 million term loan and the $40-65 million line of credit were entered into on January 1, 2002. The MacAndrews & Forbes $100 million term loan and $40-65 million line of credit are not assumed to be drawn for pro forma purposes, nor is the $50 million Series C preferred stock investment expected to be advanced. Therefore, no adjustments to pro forma net loss and pro forma basic and diluted net loss per common share are reflected for the year ended December 31, 2002. Additionally, no adjustments to pro forma net loss and pro forma basic and diluted net loss per common share are reflected for $0.4 million of certain costs associated with the amendments to the credit agreement that will be charged to expense as incurred. We expect to draw on the MacAndrews & Forbes $100 million term loan during 2003. If such term loan were fully drawn at January 1, 2002, we would have incurred $12.6 million of additional pro forma interest expense during 2002. (b) Pro forma basic and diluted loss per common share include adjustments to reflect the number of additional shares issued for the excess of the subscription price of $ per share over the fair value of our Class A common stock (the closing price per share of our Class A common stock on the NYSE on the last day on which the shares are traded, together with the rights, of $ per share). This difference is reflected in a manner similar to a stock dividend in accordance with 25
FASB Statement No. 128, "Earnings per Share." As a result, pro forma basic and diluted loss per common share reflect a decrease in loss per common share of $ for the year ended December 31, 2002. If at the time of the consummation of this rights offering, the fair value of our shares is more than the subscription price determined pursuant to the formula described on page 9, basic and diluted loss per common share will be restated for all prior periods, similar to a stock dividend. (c) The pro forma balance sheet as of December 31, 2002 reflects the additional deferred debt issuance costs related to the MacAndrews & Forbes $100 million term loan and $40-65 million line of credit and amendments to the credit agreement of $3.1 million and net proceeds of $47.4 million for the issuance of shares of our common stock pursuant to this rights offering. The MacAndrews & Forbes $100 million term loan is not assumed to be drawn for pro forma purposes. We do not currently anticipate that the $40-65 million line of credit will be drawn in 2003 or that we will require the $50 million Series C preferred stock investment based upon our expectation that the rights offering will be consummated in the second quarter of 2003. Therefore, no adjustments to the pro forma balance sheet are reflected as of December 31, 2002. 26
THE RIGHTS OFFERING REASONS FOR THE RIGHTS OFFERING On February 5, 2003, we announced that our board of directors, at the recommendation of its special committee of independent directors, had discussed and authorized: o the MacAndrews & Forbes $100 million term loan, the $50 million Series C preferred stock investment, if any, and the $40-65 million line of credit from MacAndrews & Forbes to Products Corporation; o the commencement of this rights offering; and o the Investment Agreement under which MacAndrews & Forbes agreed to take certain actions with regard to this rights offering, including, without limitation, its agreement to make the $50 million Series C preferred stock investment if, prior to closing this rights offering, we have fully drawn the MacAndrews & Forbes $100 million term loan. This rights offering is being made in connection with the stabilization and growth phase of our plan, which involves, among other things, increasing advertising and media spending, making certain changes to our new in-store wall displays and reconfiguring existing wall displays at our retail accounts, streamlining the number of our SKUs, selectively adjusting prices on certain products, optimizing product availability to consumers and further strengthening our new product development process. If this rights offering is canceled, any funds we or the subscription agent have received from you will be promptly refunded, without interest or deduction. In reaching its conclusion, our board of directors considered a number of factors, including: o our needs for cash to help fund a portion of the costs and expenses of the stabilization and growth phase of our plan and to help satisfy anticipated obligations arising from the implementation of such plan; o the opportunity that this rights offering allows all of our stockholders on the rights offering record date to participate and acquire additional shares of our Class A common stock at a discount to the market price or, alternatively, to realize value from the sale of the subscription rights if a stockholder does not have the means or the interest in exercising the subscription rights; o concerns as to the availability of other financing alternatives, in light of the difficulties faced by the company in raising equity capital or debt on terms as favorable as the MacAndrews & Forbes proposal in light of the current state of the capital markets and our business; o the subscription price relative to our Class A common stock's historical and recent trading price and pricing policies customary for transactions of this type; o MacAndrews & Forbes' willingness to purchase in a private placement the full number of shares of our Class A common stock it would otherwise have been entitled to subscribe for in this rights offering in accordance with its basic subscription privilege and to purchase all of the shares of our Class A common stock not subscribed for by our other stockholders pursuant to their basic subscription privileges and their over-subscription privileges, which ensured that the maximum of $50 million would be raised in this rights offering, as well as its willingness to subordinate its over-subscription rights that it otherwise would be entitled to exercise in order to enhance the over-subscription privileges of our other stockholders; o the potential impact of this rights offering on relative voting and ownership interests of our stockholders as described under "--Effects of Rights Offering on the MacAndrews & Forbes' Securities and Ownership" included elsewhere in this prospectus; and o the potential tax consequences of this rights offering. Neither our board of directors nor its special committee is making any recommendation as to whether or not you should exercise or sell your subscription rights. 27
THE RIGHTS We will distribute to each holder of our Class A and Class B common stock who is a record holder of our Class A and Class B common stock on the rights offering record date, which is 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on , 2003, at no charge, one transferable subscription right for each shares of Class A and Class B common stock owned, for a total of approximately subscription rights. The subscription rights will be evidenced by transferable subscription rights certificates. Each subscription right will allow you to purchase one share of our Class A common stock at a price of $ . If you elect to exercise your basic subscription privilege in full, you may also subscribe, at the subscription price, for additional shares of our Class A common stock under your over-subscription privilege to the extent that other stockholders (except MacAndrews & Forbes) do not exercise their basic subscription privileges in full. If a sufficient number of shares of our Class A common stock is unavailable to fully satisfy the over-subscription privilege requests, the available shares of Class A common stock will be sold pro rata among subscription rights holders who exercised their over-subscription privilege based on the number of shares each subscription rights holder subscribed for under the basic subscription privilege. If a sufficient number of shares of our Class A common stock is unavailable to fully satisfy the over-subscription privilege requests, the available shares of Class A common stock will be sold pro rata among subscription rights holders who exercised their over-subscription based on the number of shares of our Class A common stock each subscription rights holder subscribed for under the basic subscription privilege. MacAndrews & Forbes has agreed not to exercise its over-subscription privilege in order to enhance the over-subscription privileges of our other Class A common stockholders. We have not engaged an underwriter in connection with this rights offering. If you hold your shares in a brokerage account or through a dealer or other nominee, please see the information included below the heading "--Beneficial Owners." If our 401(k) plan holds shares of our common stock for your account, please see the information included below the heading "--Special Instructions for Participants in our 401(k) Plan." NO FRACTIONAL RIGHTS We will not issue fractional subscription rights or cash in lieu of fractional subscription rights. Fractional subscription rights will be rounded down to the nearest whole number, with such adjustments as may be necessary to ensure that we will receive gross proceeds of $50 million from this rights offering. You may request that the subscription agent divide your subscription rights certificate into transferable parts, for instance, if you are the record holder for a number of beneficial holders of our common stock. However, the subscription agent will not divide your subscription rights certificate so that you would receive any fractional subscription rights. The subscription agent will only facilitate subdivisions or transfers of subscription rights certificates until 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on , 2003, three business days prior to the expiration date. EXPIRATION OF THE RIGHTS OFFERING AND EXTENSIONS, AMENDMENTS AND TERMINATION You may exercise your subscription rights at any time before 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on , 2003, the expiration date for this rights offering. We may, in our sole discretion, extend the time for exercising the subscription rights. If the commencement of this rights offering is delayed for a period of time, the expiration date of this rights offering will be similarly extended. We will extend the duration of the rights offering as required by applicable law, and may choose to extend it if we decide that the degree of participation in this rights offering by holders of our common stock other than MacAndrews & Forbes is less than the level we desire and we believe that extending the duration of this rights offering may increase the level of participation by such holders or if we decide that changes in the market price of our Class A common stock warrant an extension. However, because MacAndrews & Forbes has agreed to back-stop this rights offering, we will not need to extend the exercise period to increase the overall level of participation because the back-stop 28
arrangement ensures that we will receive total gross proceeds of $50 million. We may extend the expiration date of this rights offering by giving oral or written notice to the subscription agent and information agent on or before the scheduled expiration date. If we elect to extend the expiration of this rights offering, we will issue a press release announcing such extension no later than 9:00 a.m., New York City time, on the next business day after the most recently announced expiration date. We reserve the right, in our sole discretion, to amend or modify the terms of this rights offering. If you do not exercise your subscription rights before the expiration date of this rights offering, your unexercised subscription rights will be null and void and will have no value. We will not be obligated to honor your exercise of subscription rights if the subscription agent receives the documents relating to your exercise after this rights offering expires, regardless of when you transmitted the documents, except if you have timely transmitted the documents under the guaranteed delivery procedures described below. SUBSCRIPTION PRIVILEGES Your subscription rights entitle you to a basic subscription privilege and an over-subscription privilege. Basic Subscription Privilege. With your basic subscription privilege, you may purchase one share of our Class A common stock per subscription right, upon delivery of the required documents and payment of the subscription price of $ per share. You are not required to exercise all of your subscription rights unless you wish to purchase shares under your over-subscription privilege. We will deliver to the recordholders who purchase shares in this rights offering certificates representing the shares purchased with a holder's basic subscription privilege as soon as practicable after this rights offering has expired. Over-Subscription Privilege. In addition to your basic subscription privilege, you may subscribe for additional shares of our Class A common stock, upon delivery of the required documents and payment of the subscription price of $ per share, before the expiration of this rights offering. You may only exercise your over-subscription privilege if you exercised your basic subscription privilege in full and other holders of subscription rights (except MacAndrew & Forbes) do not exercise their basic subscription privileges in full. Pro Rata Allocation. If there are not enough shares of our Class A common stock to satisfy all subscriptions made under the over-subscription privilege, we will allocate the remaining shares of our Class A common stock pro rata, after eliminating all fractional shares, among those over-subscribing rights holders. "Pro rata" means in proportion to the number of shares of our Class A common stock that you and the other subscription rights holders have purchased by exercising your basic subscription privileges. If there is a pro rata allocation of the remaining shares of our Class A common stock and you receive an allocation of a greater number of shares than you subscribed for under your over-subscription privilege, then we will allocate to you only the number of shares for which you subscribed. We will allocate the remaining shares among all other holders exercising their over-subscription privileges. MacAndrews & Forbes will not be allocated any additional shares of our Class A common stock as part of its over-subscription privilege because it has agreed in the Investment Agreement not to exercise its over-subscription privilege. Full Exercise of Basic Subscription Privilege. You may exercise your over-subscription privilege only if you exercise your basic subscription privilege in full. To determine if you have fully exercised your basic subscription privilege, we will consider only the basic subscription privileges held by you in the same capacity. For example, suppose that you were granted subscription rights for shares of our Class A common stock that you own individually and shares of our Class A common stock that you own collectively with your spouse. If you wish to exercise your over-subscription privilege with respect to the subscription rights you own individually, but not with respect to the subscription rights you own collectively with your spouse, you only need to fully exercise your basic subscription privilege with 29
respect to your individually owned subscription rights. You do not have to subscribe for any shares under the basic subscription privilege owned collectively with your spouse to exercise your individual over-subscription privilege. When you complete the portion of your subscription rights certificate to exercise your over-subscription privilege, you will be representing and certifying that you have fully exercised your subscription privileges as to shares of our Class A common stock that you hold in that capacity. You must exercise your over-subscription privilege at the same time you exercise your basic subscription privilege in full. Return of Excess Payment. If you exercised your over-subscription privilege and are allocated less than all of the shares of our Class A common stock for which you wished to subscribe, your excess payment for shares that were not allocated to you will be returned to you by mail, without interest or deduction, as soon as practicable after the expiration date of this rights offering. We will deliver to the recordholders who purchase shares in this rights offering certificates representing the shares of our Class A common stock that you purchased as soon as practicable after the expiration date of this rights offering and after all pro rata allocations and adjustments have been completed. If you are a participant in our 401(k) plan, all subscription payments received by the subscription agent from the trustee on your behalf and not applied to the purchase of shares of our Class A common stock will be returned to your Stable Value Fund account established under the 401(k) plan, without interest or deduction, where the funds will remain subject to your further investment directions in accordance with the terms of the 401(k) plan. CONDITIONS TO THIS RIGHTS OFFERING We may terminate this rights offering, in whole or in part, if at any time before completion of this rights offering there is any judgment, order, decree, injunction, statute, law or regulation entered, enacted, amended or held to be applicable to this rights offering that in the sole judgment of our board of directors would or might make this rights offering or its completion, whether in whole or in part, illegal or otherwise restrict or prohibit completion of this rights offering. We may waive any of these conditions and choose to proceed with this rights offering even if one or more of these events occur. If we terminate this rights offering, in whole or in part, all affected subscription rights will expire without value and all subscription payments received by the subscription agent will be returned promptly, without interest or deduction. See also "--Cancellation Rights." METHOD OF SUBSCRIPTION--EXERCISE OF RIGHTS You may exercise your subscription rights by delivering the following to the subscription agent, at or prior to 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on , 2003, the expiration date of this rights offering: o Your properly completed and executed subscription rights certificate with any required signature guarantees or other supplemental documentation; and o Your full subscription price payment for each share subscribed for under your subscription privileges. If you are a beneficial owner of shares of our common stock whose shares are registered in the name of a broker, custodian bank or other nominee, you should instruct your broker, custodian bank or other nominee to exercise your rights and deliver all documents and payment on your behalf prior to 5:00 p.m. New York City time on , 2003, the expiration date of this rights offering. Your subscription rights will not be considered exercised unless the subscription agent receives from you, your broker, custodian or nominee, as the case may be, all of the required documents and your full subscription price payment prior to 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on , 2003, the expiration date of this rights offering. If you are a participant in our 401(k) plan, please refer to the information set out in "--Special Instructions for Participants in Our 401(k) Plan." 30
METHOD OF PAYMENT Your payment of the subscription price must be made in U.S. dollars for the full number of shares of Class A common stock for which you are subscribing by either: o check or bank draft drawn upon a U.S. bank or postal, telegraphic or express money order payable to the subscription agent; or o wire transfer of immediately available funds, to the subscription account maintained by the subscription agent at JPMorgan Chase Bank, ABA No. 021 000 021, Account No. 323-113109. If you are a participant in our 401(k) plan, please refer to the information set out in "--Special Instructions for Participants in Our 401(k) Plan." RECEIPT OF PAYMENT Your payment will be considered received by the subscription agent only upon: o Clearance of any uncertified check; o Receipt by the subscription agent of any certified check or bank draft drawn upon a U.S. bank or of any postal, telegraphic or express money order; or o Receipt of collected funds in the subscription account designated above. CLEARANCE OF UNCERTIFIED CHECKS If you are paying by uncertified personal check, please note that uncertified checks may take at least five (5) business days to clear. If you wish to pay the subscription price by uncertified personal check, we urge you to make payment sufficiently in advance of the time this rights offering expires to ensure that your payment is received by the subscription agent and clears by the rights offering expiration date. We urge you to consider using a certified or cashier's check, money order or wire transfer of funds to avoid missing the opportunity to exercise your subscription rights should you decide to exercise your subscription rights. DELIVERY OF SUBSCRIPTION MATERIALS AND PAYMENT You should deliver your subscription rights certificate and payment of the subscription price or, if applicable, notices of guaranteed delivery, to the subscription agent by one of the methods described below: By mail, hand delivery or overnight courier to: AMERICAN STOCK TRANSFER & TRUST COMPANY 59 Maiden Lane, Plaza Level New York, NY 10038 You may call the subscription agent at (718) 921-8200. Your delivery to an address or by any method other than as set forth above will not constitute valid delivery. CALCULATION OF SUBSCRIPTION RIGHTS EXERCISED If you do not indicate the number of subscription rights being exercised, or do not forward full payment of the total subscription price payment for the number of subscription rights that you indicate are being exercised, then you will be deemed to have exercised your basic subscription privilege with respect to the maximum number of subscription rights that may be exercised with the aggregate subscription price payment you delivered to the subscription agent. If your aggregate subscription price payment is greater than the amount you owe for your subscription, you will be deemed to have exercised your over-subscription privilege to purchase the maximum number of shares of our Class A common stock with your over-payment. If we do not apply your full subscription price 31
payment to your purchase of shares of our Class A common stock, we or the subscription agent will return the excess amount to you by mail, without interest or deduction, as soon as practicable after the expiration date of this rights offering. If you are a participant in our 401(k) plan, all subscription payments received by the subscription agent from the trustee on your behalf and not applied to the purchase of shares of our Class A common stock will be returned to your Stable Value Fund account established under the 401(k) plan, without interest or deduction, where the funds will remain subject to your further investment directions in accordance with the terms of the 401(k) plan. EXERCISING A PORTION OF YOUR SUBSCRIPTION RIGHTS If you subscribe for fewer than all of the shares of our Class A common stock represented by your subscription rights certificate, you may request from the subscription agent a new subscription rights certificate representing your unused subscription rights and then attempt to sell your unused subscription rights. See "--Method of Transferring and Selling Subscription Rights." Alternatively, you may transfer a portion of your subscription rights and request from the subscription agent a new subscription rights certificate representing the rights you did not transfer. HOWEVER, THE SUBSCRIPTION AGENT WILL ONLY FACILITATE SUBDIVISIONS OR TRANSFERS OF SUBSCRIPTION RIGHTS CERTIFICATES UNTIL 5:00 P.M., NEW YORK CITY TIME, ON , 2003, THREE BUSINESS DAYS PRIOR TO THE EXPIRATION DATE. All subscription rights must be exercised prior to the expiration date of this rights offering, or else your subscription rights will be null and void. We will not issue any subscription rights certificates for unexercised subscription rights after the rights offering expiration date. If you are a participant in our 401(k) plan, please refer to the information set out in "--Special Instructions for Participants in Our 401(k) Plan." YOUR FUNDS WILL BE HELD BY THE SUBSCRIPTION AGENT UNTIL SHARES OF OUR CLASS A COMMON STOCK ARE ISSUED The subscription agent will hold your payment of the subscription price in a segregated account with other payments received from other subscription rights holders until we issue your shares of our Class A common stock to you upon consummation of the rights offering. MEDALLION GUARANTEE MAY BE REQUIRED Your signature on each subscription rights certificate must be guaranteed by an eligible institution, such as a member firm of a registered national securities exchange or a member of the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc., or a commercial bank or trust company having an office or correspondent in the U.S., subject to standards and procedures adopted by the subscription agent, unless: o Your subscription rights certificate provides that shares are to be delivered to you as record holder of those subscription rights; or o You are an eligible institution. NOTICE TO BENEFICIAL HOLDERS If you are a broker, a trustee or a depositary for securities who holds shares of our common stock for the account of others on , 2003, the rights offering record date, you should notify the respective beneficial owners of such shares of this rights offering as soon as possible to find out their intentions with respect to exercising or selling their subscription rights. You should obtain instructions from the beneficial owner with respect to their subscription rights, as set forth in the instructions we have provided to you for your distribution to beneficial owners. If the beneficial owner so instructs, you should complete the appropriate subscription rights certificates and submit them to the subscription agent with the proper payment. If you hold shares of our common stock for the account(s) of more than one beneficial owner, you may exercise the number of subscription rights to which all such beneficial owners in the aggregate otherwise would have been entitled had they been 32
direct record holders of our common stock on the rights offering record date, provided that you, as a nominee record holder, make a proper showing to the subscription agent by submitting the form entitled "Nominee Holder Certification" that we will provide to you with your rights offering materials. If you did not receive this form, you should contact the subscription agent to request a copy. BENEFICIAL OWNERS If you are a beneficial owner of shares of our common stock or will receive your subscription rights through a broker, custodian bank or other nominee, we will ask your broker, custodian bank or other nominee to notify you of this rights offering. If you wish to exercise or sell your subscription rights, you will need to have your broker, custodian bank or other nominee act for you. If you hold certificates of our common stock directly and would prefer to have your broker, custodian bank or other nominee act for you, you should contact your nominee and request it to effect the transactions for you. To indicate your decision with respect to your subscription rights, you should complete and return to your broker, custodian bank or other nominee the form entitled "Beneficial Owners Election Form." You should receive this form from your broker, custodian bank or other nominee with the other rights offering materials. If you wish to obtain a separate subscription rights certificate, you should contact the nominee as soon as possible and request that a separate subscription rights certificate be issued to you. You should contact your broker, custodian bank or other nominee if you do not receive this form, but you believe you are entitled to participate in this rights offering. We are not responsible if you do not receive the form from your broker, custodian bank or nominee or if you receive it without sufficient time to respond. If you are a participant in our 401(k) plan, please refer to the information set out in "--Special Instructions for Participants in Our 401(k) Plan." INSTRUCTIONS FOR COMPLETING YOUR SUBSCRIPTION RIGHTS CERTIFICATE You should read and follow the instructions accompanying the subscription rights certificates carefully. You are responsible for the method of delivery of your subscription rights certificate(s) with your subscription price payment to the subscription agent. If you send your subscription rights certificate(s) and subscription price payment by mail, we recommend that you send them by registered mail, properly insured, with return receipt requested. You should allow a sufficient number of days to ensure delivery to the subscription agent prior to the time this rights offering expires. Because uncertified personal checks may take at least five (5) business days to clear, you are strongly urged to pay, or arrange for payment, by means of a certified or cashier's check, money order or wire transfer of funds. If you are a participant in our 401(k) plan, you will not receive a subscription rights certificate, but you will be notified on a 401(k) Plan Participant Election Form of the number of subscription rights that have been allocated to you. Please refer to the information set out under "--Special Instructions for Participants in Our 401(k) Plan." DETERMINATIONS REGARDING THE EXERCISE OR SALE OF YOUR SUBSCRIPTION RIGHTS We will decide all questions concerning the timeliness, validity, form and eligibility of the exercise of your subscription rights and any such determinations by us will be final and binding. We, in our sole discretion, may waive, in any particular instance, any defect or irregularity, or permit, in any particular instance, a defect or irregularity to be corrected within such time as we may determine. We will not be required to make uniform determinations in all cases. We may reject the exercise or sale of any of your subscription rights because of any defect or irregularity. We will not accept any exercise of subscription rights until all irregularities have been waived by us or cured by you within such time as we decide, in our sole discretion. Neither we, the subscription agent, the information agent nor the 401(k) plan trustee, will be under any duty to notify you of any defect or irregularity in connection with your submission of 33
subscription rights certificates and we will not be liable for failure to notify you of any defect or irregularity. We reserve the right to reject your exercise of subscription rights if your exercise is not in accordance with the terms of this rights offering or in proper form. We will also not accept the exercise of your subscription rights if our issuance of shares of our Class A common stock to you could be deemed unlawful under applicable law. SPECIAL INSTRUCTIONS FOR PARTICIPANTS IN OUR 401(K) PLAN Our Class A common stock is one of the investments available under our 401(k) plan. Subscription rights will be allocated to 401(k) plan participants for whose account the 401(k) plan holds shares of Class A comon stock on the record date for this rights offering in proportion to the number of such shares held on their behalf under the 401(k) plan as of that date. Those participants will have the ability to direct the trustee of the 401(k) plan to sell or exercise some or all of the subscription rights allocable to them. At , 2003, the 401(k) plan was the record holder of shares of our Class A common stock in the aggregate. If shares of our Class A common stock are held by our 401(k) plan for your account under our 401(k) plan as of the rights offering record date, you will be notified by us of this rights offering and the number of subscription rights that have been allocated to your account under our 401(k) plan. If you wish to sell or exercise your subscription rights, in whole or in part, you will need to notify the trustee of the 401(k) Plan of your decision and the trustee will act for you. To indicate your decision, you should complete and return to the trustee the form entitled "401(k) Plan Participant Election Form." You should receive this form with the other rights offering materials. If you do not receive this form, you should contact the information agent if you believe you are entitled to participate in this rights offering with respect to shares you hold under the 401(k) plan. The trustee must receive your completed 401(k) Plan Participant Election Form no later than 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on , 2003, seven days prior to the expiration date of this rights offering, so that the trustee can sell or exercise the subscription rights on your behalf prior to the expiration date. To the extent you elect to sell some or all of the subscription rights allocated to you under the 401(k) plan, the trustee will attempt to sell those rights on your behalf as soon as practicable after it receives the 401(k) Plan Participant Election Form from you (provided that, to the extent that market conditions prevent the sale of rights on any particular day, successive daily attempts will be made to sell the rights until they are all sold). The trustee's obligation to execute sell orders is subject to its ability to find buyers for the subscription rights. We cannot assure you that a trading market for the subscription rights can be maintained. Any direction to exercise your rights will be implemented as described below. In any event, if you fail to instruct the trustee to either sell or exercise your subscription rights on or before , 2003, the trustee will attempt to sell the rights on your behalf beginning on , 2003. If you elect to exercise some or all of your subscription rights, you must ensure that the total amount of the funds required for such exercise have been allocated to an account created by you, or that you currently maintain, in the Stable Value Fund (an existing investment election under the 401(k) plan) on , 2003 in order to satisfy the subscription price payable by you upon exercise of your subscription rights. On , 2003, the trustee, to exercise subscription rights on your behalf in the rights offering, will transfer such funds from your Stable Value Fund account to the subscription agent. DO NOT SEND YOUR SUBSCRIPTION PRICE PAYMENT TO US, THE SUBSCRIPTION AGENT OR THE INFORMATION AGENT. To the extent you do not already have sufficient funds invested in a Stable Value Fund account to exercise the subscription rights, you will need to liquidate a portion of your investments in one or more of your other investment funds under the 401(k) plan and transfer such funds into your existing or newly created Stable Value Fund account by 2003, in an amount sufficient to exercise the subscription rights in accordance with your election. If the amount that you have invested in your Stable Value Fund account on , 2003 is insufficient to exercise all of your subscription rights in accordance with your election, the subscription rights will be exercised to the maximum extent possible with the amount you have invested in the Stable Value 34
Fund account, and, if an active trading market for the rights is maintained, the trustee will attempt to sell for your account any remaining rights that are not exercised because of insufficient funds. The net proceeds of any sale of rights (whether directed by you or implemented by the trustee in the absence of direction or on account of insufficient funds for exercise) will be allocated to your Stable Value Fund account established under the 401(k) plan, where such funds will remain subject to your further investment directions in accordance with the terms of the 401(k) plan. Any shares of our Class A common stock purchased upon exercise of the subscription rights you hold under the 401(k) plan will be allocated to the Employee Stock Fund established under the 401(k) plan (which is the fund that holds newly--acquired shares of our Class A common stock), where they will remain subject to your further investment directions in accordance with the terms of the 401(k) plan. Once you send to the trustee the form entitled "401(k) Plan Participant Election Form," you may not revoke your exercise instructions. If you elect to exercise your subscription rights, you should be aware that the market value of our Class A common stock may go up or down during the period after you submit your 401(k) Plan Participant Election Form to the trustee and before the time that Class A common stock is purchased under the subscription rights and allocated to your account under the 401(k) plan. See "Risk Factors--You may not revoke your subscription exercise and could be committed to buying shares above the prevailing market price." However, notwithstanding instructions from participants of our 401(k) plan to exercise their subscription rights, the trustee will not exercise the subscription rights if, on , 2003, the per share public trading price of our Class A common stock is less than the per share subscription price. The trustee may attempt, instead, to sell the subscription rights; however, if the per share subscription price exceeds the per share public trading price, it is likely that the subscription rights will have no value. The trustee may also, from , 2003 through the expiration of this rights offering, exercise the rights if the per share public trading price increases above the per share subscription price. If you terminate employment and request a distribution from the 401(k) plan effective before the expiration of this rights offering, any subscription rights allocated to your account at the time of distribution will be sold (to the extent that a market is maintained) and any net sale proceeds will be distributed to you in accordance with the otherwise applicable terms of the 401(k) plan. Neither we, the subscription agent, the information agent nor the plan trustee will be under any duty to notify you of any defect or irregularity in connection with your submission of the 401(k) Plan Participant Election Form, and we will not be liable for failure to notify you of any defect or irregularity with respect to the completion of such form. We reserve the right to reject your exercise or instructions for sale of subscription rights if your exercise is, or instructions for sale are, not in accordance with the terms of this rights offering or in proper form. We will also not accept the exercise of your subscription rights if our issuance of shares of our Class A common stock to you could be deemed unlawful under applicable law. The 401(k) Plan Participant Election Form must be delivered to Putnam Fiduciary Trust Company, the trustee of the 401(k) plan, at the address set forth below: By Mail: PUTNAM INVESTMENTS Defined Contribution Plan Administration P.O. Box 9740 Providence, RI 02940-9889 By Hand Delivery or Overnight Courier: PUTNAM INVESTMENTS Investors Way Norwood, MA 02062-9105 Delivery to any address or by a method other than those set forth above does not constitute valid delivery. 35

QUESTIONS ABOUT EXERCISING OR SELLING SUBSCRIPTION RIGHTS If you have any questions or require assistance regarding the method of exercising or selling your subscription rights or requests for additional copies of this prospectus, the Instructions as to the Use 36
of Revlon, Inc. Subscription Rights Certificates or the Notice of Guaranteed Delivery, you should contact the information agent at the address and telephone number set forth above under "Summary--Questions and Answers About the Rights Offering" included elsewhere in this prospectus. SUBSCRIPTION AGENT AND INFORMATION AGENT We have appointed American Stock Transfer & Trust Company to act as subscription agent and D.F. King & Co., Inc. to act as information agent for this rights offering. We will pay all fees and expenses of the subscription agent and the information agent related to this rights offering and have also agreed to indemnify the subscription agent and the information agent from liabilities that they may incur in connection with this rights offering. NO REVOCATION Once you have exercised your subscription privileges, you may not revoke your exercise. Subscription rights not exercised prior to the expiration date of this rights offering will expire and will have no value. PROCEDURES FOR DTC PARTICIPANTS We expect that the exercise of your basic subscription privilege and your over-subscription privilege may be made through the facilities of the Depository Trust Company. If your subscription rights are held of record through DTC, you may exercise your basic subscription privilege and your over-subscription privilege by instructing DTC to transfer your subscription rights from your account to the account of the subscription agent, together with certification as to the aggregate number of subscription rights you are exercising and the number of shares of our Class A common stock you are subscribing for under your basic subscription privilege and your over-subscription privilege, if any, and your subscription price payment for each share of our Class A common stock that you subscribed for pursuant to your basic subscription privilege and your over-subscription privilege. SUBSCRIPTION PRICE The subscription price is $ per share. For more information with respect to how the subscription price was determined, see "Summary--Questions and Answers About the Rights Offering" included elsewhere in this prospectus. FOREIGN AND OTHER STOCKHOLDERS We will not mail subscription rights certificates to stockholders on the record date, or to subsequent transferees, whose addresses are outside the U.S. Instead, we will have the subscription agent hold the subscription rights certificates for those holders' accounts. To exercise their subscription rights, foreign holders must notify the subscription agent before 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on , 2003, three business days prior to the expiration date, and must establish to the satisfaction of the subscription agent that it is permitted to exercise its subscription rights under applicable law. If a foreign holder does not notify and provide acceptable instructions to the subscription agent by such time (and if no contrary instructions have been received), the subscription rights will be sold, subject to the subscription agent's ability to find a purchaser. Any such sales will be deemed to be effected at the weighted average sale price of all subscription rights sold by the subscription agent on the relevant date of sale. See "--Method of Transferring and Selling Subscription Rights." If the subscription agent sells subscription rights for a foreign holder, the subscription agent will remit a check for the proceeds from the sale of any subscription rights (less any applicable commissions, taxes or broker fees) to such foreign holder by mail. The proceeds, if any, resulting from sales of subscription rights pursuant to the basic subscription privilege of holders whose addresses are not known by the subscription agent or to whom delivery cannot be made will be held in an interest bearing account. Any amount remaining unclaimed by foreign holders on the second anniversary of the expiration date of this rights offering will be remitted to us. 37
METHODS FOR TRANSFERRING AND SELLING SUBSCRIPTION RIGHTS We anticipate that the subscription rights will be traded on the NYSE under the symbol "REV.RT." We expect that subscription rights may be purchased or sold until the close of business on the last trading day preceding the expiration date. You may sell your subscription rights by contacting your broker or the institution through which you hold your securities. In addition, if you are a record holder of our common stock, you may sell your rights through the subscription agent (as described below). However, there has been no prior public market for the subscription rights, and we cannot assure you that a trading market for the subscription rights will develop or, if a market develops, that the market will remain available throughout the subscription period. We also cannot assure you of the price at which the subscription rights will trade, if at all. If you do not exercise or sell your subscription rights you will lose any value inherent in the subscription rights. See "--General Considerations Regarding the Partial Exercise, Transfer or Sale of Subscription Rights" below. Transfer of Subscription Rights. You may transfer subscription rights in whole by endorsing the subscription rights certificate for transfer. Please follow the instructions for transfer included in the information sent to you with your subscription rights certificate. If you wish to transfer only a portion of the subscription rights, you should deliver your properly endorsed subscription rights certificate to the subscription agent. With your subscription rights certificate, you should include instructions to register such portion of the subscription rights evidenced thereby in the name of the transferee (and to issue a new subscription rights certificate to the transferee evidencing such transferred subscription rights). You may only transfer whole subscription rights and not fractions of a subscription right. If there is sufficient time before the expiration of this rights offering, the subscription agent will send you a new subscription rights certificate evidencing the balance of your subscription rights that you did not transfer to the transferee. You may also instruct the subscription agent to send the subscription rights certificate to one or more additional transferees. If you wish to sell your remaining subscription rights, you may request that the subscription agent send you certificates representing your remaining (whole) subscription rights so that you may sell them through your broker or dealer. If you wish to transfer all or a portion of your subscription rights, you should allow a sufficient amount of time prior to the time the subscription rights expire for the subscription agent to: o receive and process your transfer instructions; and o issue and transmit a new subscription rights certificate to your transferee or transferees with respect to transferred subscription rights, and to you with respect to any subscription rights you retained. If you wish to transfer your subscription rights to any person other than a bank or broker, the signatures on your subscription rights certificate must be guaranteed by an eligible institution. If you are a participant in our 401(k) plan, please refer to the information set out in "--Special Instructions for Participants in Our 401(k) Plan." Sales of Subscription Rights Through the Subscription Agent. If you are a record holder of our Class A common stock and choose not to sell your subscription rights through your broker or dealer, you may choose to sell your subscription rights through the subscription agent. If you wish to have the subscription agent seek to sell your subscription rights, you must deliver your properly executed subscription rights certificate, with appropriate instructions, to the subscription agent. If you want the subscription agent to seek to sell only a portion of your subscription rights, you must send the subscription agent instructions setting forth what you would like done with the subscription rights along with your subscription rights certificate. If the subscription agent sells subscription rights for you, it will send you a check for the net proceeds from the sale of any of your subscription rights, less any applicable commissions, taxes or broker fees, as soon as practicable following the sale. If your subscription rights can be sold, the sale will be deemed to have been made at the weighted average net sale price of all subscription rights sold by the subscription agent on the relevant date of sale. We cannot assure you, however, that a market will develop for the purchase and sale of the subscription rights or that the subscription agent will be able to sell your subscription rights. 38
You must deliver your order to sell your subscription rights to the subscription agent before 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on _______, 2003, the third business day before the expiration date. If less than all sales orders received by the subscription agent are filled, it will prorate the sales proceeds among you and the other subscription rights holders based upon the number of subscription rights that each holder has instructed the subscription agent to sell during that period, irrespective of when during the period the instructions are received by it. The subscription agent is required to sell your subscription rights only if it is able to find buyers. IF YOU SELL YOUR SUBSCRIPTION RIGHTS THROUGH YOUR BROKER OR DEALER, YOU MAY RECEIVE A DIFFERENT AMOUNT OF PROCEEDS THAN IF YOU SELL THE SAME AMOUNT OF SUBSCRIPTION RIGHTS THROUGH THE SUBSCRIPTION AGENT. IF YOU SELL YOUR SUBSCRIPTION RIGHTS THROUGH YOUR BROKER OR DEALER INSTEAD OF THE SUBSCRIPTION AGENT, YOUR SALES PROCEEDS WILL BE THE ACTUAL SALES PRICE OF YOUR SUBSCRIPTION RIGHTS LESS ANY APPLICABLE BROKERS COMMISSION, TAXES OR OTHER FEES, RATHER THAN THE WEIGHTED AVERAGE NET SALE PRICE OF ALL SUBSCRIPTION RIGHTS SOLD BY THE SUBSCRIPTION AGENT ON THE RELEVANT DATE DESCRIBED ABOVE. If you are a participant in our 401(k) plan, please refer to the information set out in "--Special Instructions for Participants in Our 401(k) Plan." General Considerations Regarding the Partial Exercise, Transfer or Sale of Subscription Rights. The amount of time needed by your transferee to exercise or sell its subscription rights depends upon the method by which you, as the transferor, delivers the subscription rights certificates, the method of payment made by your transferee and the number of transactions that the holder instructs the subscription agent to effect. You should also allow up to ten business days for your transferee to exercise or sell the subscription rights that you transferred to it. Neither we nor the subscription agent will be liable to a transferee or transferor of subscription rights if subscription rights certificates or any other required documents are not received in time for exercise or sale prior to the expiration time. You will receive a new subscription rights certificate upon a partial exercise, transfer or sale of subscription rights only if the subscription agent receives your properly endorsed subscription rights certificate no later than 5:00 p.m., New York City time, three business days before the expiration date. The subscription agent will not issue a new subscription rights certificate if your subscription rights certificate is received after that time and date. If your instructions and subscription rights certificate are received by the subscription agent after that time and date, you will not receive a new subscription rights certificate and therefore will not be able to sell or exercise your remaining subscription rights. You are responsible for all commissions, fees and other expenses (including brokerage commissions and transfer taxes) incurred in connection with the purchase, sale or exercise of your subscription rights, except that we will pay any fees of the subscription agent and information agent associated with this rights offering. Any amounts you owe will be deducted from your account. If you do not exercise or sell your subscription rights before the expiration date, your subscription rights will expire without value and will no longer be exercisable. CANCELLATION RIGHTS Our board of directors may cancel this rights offering, in whole or in part, in its sole discretion at any time prior to the time this rights offering expires for any reason (including a change in the market price of our Class A common stock). If we cancel this rights offering, any funds you paid to the subscription agent will be promptly refunded, without interest or deduction. NO BOARD OR SPECIAL COMMITTEE RECOMMENDATION An investment in shares of our Class A common stock must be made according to each investor's evaluation of its own best interests and after considering all of the information in this prospectus, including the "Risk Factors" section of this prospectus and all of the information incorporated by reference in this prospectus. Neither we, our board of directors nor the special committee of our board of directors makes any recommendation to subscription rights holders regarding whether they 39
should exercise or sell their subscription rights. You should not view MacAndrews & Forbes' agreements under the Investment Agreement as a recommendation or other indication by MacAndrews & Forbes or our board of directors that the exercise of your subscription rights is in your best interests. SHARES OF COMMON STOCK OUTSTANDING AFTER THE RIGHTS OFFERING Based on the shares of our Class A common stock issued and outstanding as of , 2003, approximately million shares of our Class A common stock will be issued and outstanding after this rights offering expires, an increase in the number of outstanding shares of our Class A common stock of approximately %. The 31,250,000 shares of our Class B common stock, all of which are beneficially owned by MacAndrews & Forbes as of , 2003, will remain outstanding. EFFECTS OF RIGHTS OFFERING ON STOCK PLAN AND OTHER PLANS As of December 31, 2002, there were outstanding 2,005,000 restricted shares and options to purchase 7,886,064 shares of our Class A common stock issued or committed to be issued pursuant to stock options granted by us and our affiliates. None of the outstanding options or restricted shares have antidilution or other provisions of adjustment that will be triggered by this rights offering. Each outstanding and unexercised option will remain unchanged and will be exercisable, subject to vesting, if any, for the same number of shares of our Class A common stock and at the same exercise price as before this rights offering. Similarly, each restricted share will remain unchanged. EFFECTS OF RIGHTS OFFERING ON THE MACANDREWS & FORBES' SECURITIES AND OWNERSHIP Even though the subscription rights will be offered on a pro rata basis to each holder of our Class A and Class B common stock, because of MacAndrews & Forbes' commitment to back-stop this rights offering, the percentage of common stock owned by other stockholders will decrease unless all of the other stockholders exercise the subscription rights they will receive in full. Set forth below, for illustrative purposes only, are two scenarios that indicate the effect that this rights offering and related share issuance could have on MacAndrews & Forbes' relative voting and economic interest. As of the date of this prospectus, MacAndrews & Forbes controls approximately 97% of the voting power of our outstanding capital stock and owns approximately 83% of our outstanding common stock. SCENARIO A -- All subscription rights are subscribed for on a pro rata basis by all of the stockholders to whom the subscription rights were issued, except MacAndrews & Forbes, and MacAndrews & Forbes purchases the full number of shares of our Class A common stock it would have been entitled to subscribe for in this rights offering in accordance with its basic subscription privilege. Because all of the subscription rights are exercised in the basic subscription privilege by holders other than MacAndrews & Forbes and MacAndrews & Forbes purchases the number of shares equivalent to its full pro rata portion of the shares offered pursuant to the basic subscription privilege to which it would otherwise have been entitled, no shares are exercisable in the over-subscription privilege and MacAndrews & Forbes does not need to back-stop this rights offering. SCENARIO B -- MacAndrews & Forbes is the only stockholder to acquire shares of our Class A common stock, which number of shares is equivalent to the full number of shares of our Class A common stock it would have been entitled to subscribe for in this rights offering in accordance with its basic subscription privilege and, through the back-stop, MacAndrews & Forbes acquires all of the shares offered in this rights offering. 40

We may delay the commencement of this rights offering in those states or other jurisdictions, or change the terms of this rights offering, in whole or in part, in order to comply with the securities law or other legal requirements of those states or other jurisdictions. We may decline to make modifications to the terms of this rights offering requested by those states or other jurisdictions, in which case, if you are a resident in those states or jurisdictions or if you are otherwise prohibited by federal or state laws or regulations from accepting or exercising the subscription rights you will not be eligible to participate in this rights offering. INVESTMENT AGREEMENT Pursuant to an Investment Agreement between Revlon, Products Corporation and MacAndrews Holdings, dated February 5, 2003, among other things, MacAndrews & Forbes agreed: o to purchase in a private placement the full number of shares of our Class A common stock it would otherwise have been entitled to subscribe for in this rights offering in accordance with its basic subscription privilege; o to not exercise the over-subscription privilege that it would otherwise be entitled to exercise in this rights offering; o to back-stop this rights offering by purchasing in a private placement all of the shares of our Class A common stock that are not otherwise subscribed for by the other holders of subscription rights under their basic subscription privileges and over-subscription privileges; and o to make available to us (i) the $50 million Series C preferred stock investment, if any, which shares would be redeemed upon consummation of this rights offering, (ii) the MacAndrews & Forbes $100 million term loan and (iii) the $40-65 million line of credit. The Investment Agreement also provides that, in lieu of paying cash to satisfy its obligations referred to in the first and third bullet points above, at the consummation of the rights offering, MacAndrews & Forbes may elect to satisfy all or part of such obligations by offsetting such obligations against MacAndrews & Forbes' right to receive from us the cash redemption proceeds with respect to the Series C preferred stock then held by MacAndrews & Forbes, if any. In addition, the Investment Agreement provides that any shares of our Class A common stock acquired by MacAndrews & Forbes in transactions contemplated by the Investment Agreement will be deemed to be registrable securities under the existing registration rights agreement between us and REV Holdings LLC. USE OF PROCEEDS Our gross proceeds from this rights offering will be $50 million, which will include proceeds from the purchase in a private placement by MacAndrews & Forbes of the number of shares of our Class A common stock it would otherwise have been entitled to subscribe for in this rights offering and 41
could include proceeds from MacAndrews & Forbes pursuant to its arrangement to back-stop this rights offering. The net proceeds from this rights offering, combined with the proceeds from the MacAndrews & Forbes $100 million term loan as well as the $40-65 million line of credit, if any, will be used for general corporate purposes, including to help fund a portion of the costs and expenses of the stabilization and growth phase of our plan, which includes increasing advertising and media spending and effectiveness, increasing the marketing effectiveness of our wall displays, including by streamlining the number of our SKUs, selectively adjusting prices on certain products, optimizing product availability to consumers, further strengthening our new product development process, and for other general corporate purposes. Alternatively, the net proceeds from this rights offering will be used to fund the costs of redeeming the $50 million Series C preferred stock investment, if any. Assuming that this rights offering is consummated in the second quarter of 2003, we do not currently anticipate that we will require that MacAndrews & Forbes make the $50 million Series C preferred stock investment. However, if we require MacAndrews & Forbes to make the $50 million Series C preferred stock investment, our Series C preferred stock, when issued, would be non-voting, non-dividend paying, non-convertible stock which would, with respect to rights to distributions upon the liquidation, winding-up or dissolution of us, rank senior to all classes of our common stock, pari passu with our Series A preferred stock and junior to our Series B preferred stock. The Series C preferred stock would be optionally redeemable by us upon satisfaction of certain conditions at any time at a cash redemption price equivalent to the face amount of the stock. In addition, the Series C preferred stock would be redeemable on a mandatory basis by us in the event that this rights offering is consummated. DILUTION Purchasers of our Class A common stock in this rights offering will experience an immediate dilution of the net tangible book value per share of our Class A common stock. Our net tangible book value as of December 31, 2002 was approximately $(1,863.0) million, or $(35.99) per share of our Class A and Class B common stock. Net tangible book value per share is equal to our total net tangible book value, which is our total tangible assets less our total liabilities, divided by the number of shares of our outstanding Class A and Class B common stock. Dilution per share equals the difference between the amount per share paid by purchasers of shares of Class A common stock in this rights offering and the net tangible book value per share of our Class A and Class B common stock immediately after this rights offering. Based on a subscription price of $ per share and after deducting estimated offering expenses payable by us, and the application of the estimated net proceeds from this rights offering, our pro forma net tangible book value as of December 31, 2002 would have been approximately $ million, or $ per share. This represents an immediate increase in pro forma net tangible book value to existing stockholders of $ per share and an immediate dilution to purchasers in this rights offering of $ per share. The following table illustrates this per share dilution: Subscription price ......................................................... $ Net tangible book value per share prior to this rights offering ........... $(35.99) Increase per share attributable to this rights offering ................... Pro forma net tangible book value per share after this rights offering ..... ----- Dilution in net tangible book value per share to purchasers ................ $ ===== 42

CERTAIN UNITED STATES FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES The following discussion is a summary of certain federal income tax consequences of this rights offering to holders of our common stock that hold such stock as a capital asset for federal income tax purposes. This discussion is based on laws, regulations, rulings and decisions in effect on the date hereof, all of which are subject to change (possibly with retroactive effect) and to differing interpretations. This discussion applies only to holders that are U.S. persons and does not address all aspects of federal income taxation that may be relevant to holders in light of their particular circumstances or to holders who may be subject to special tax treatment under the Internal Revenue Code, including, without limitation, holders of preferred stock or warrants, holders who are dealers in securities or foreign currency, foreign persons, insurance companies, tax-exempt organizations, banks, financial institutions, broker-dealers, holders who hold common stock as part of a hedge, straddle, conversion or other risk reduction transaction, or who acquired common stock pursuant to the exercise of compensatory stock options or otherwise as compensation. We have not sought, and will not seek, a ruling from the Internal Revenue Service regarding the federal income tax consequences of this rights offering or the related share issuance. The following summary does not address the tax consequences of this rights offering or the related share issuance under foreign, state, or local tax laws. ACCORDINGLY, EACH HOLDER OF COMMON STOCK SHOULD CONSULT ITS TAX ADVISOR WITH RESPECT TO THE PARTICULAR TAX CONSEQUENCES OF THIS RIGHTS OFFERING OR THE RELATED SHARE ISSUANCE TO SUCH HOLDER. For U.S. federal income tax purposes, neither the receipt nor the exercise of the subscription rights will result in taxable income to you. Moreover, you will not realize a loss if you do not exercise the subscription rights. The holding period for a share acquired upon exercise of a subscription right begins with the date of exercise. The basis for determining gain or loss upon the sale of a share acquired upon the exercise of a subscription right will be equal to the sum of: o the subscription price per share; o any servicing fee charged to you by your broker, bank or trust company; and o the basis, if any, in the subscription rights that you exercised. A gain or loss recognized upon a sale of a share acquired upon the exercise of a subscription right will be a capital gain or loss assuming the share is held as a capital asset at the time of sale. This gain or loss will be a long-term capital gain or loss if the share has been held at the time of sale for more than one year. As noted above, your basis in a share issued under the subscription rights offer includes your basis in the subscription rights underlying that share. If the aggregate fair market value of the subscription rights at the time they are distributed is less than 15% of the aggregate fair market value of our common stock at such time, the basis of the subscription rights issued to you will be zero unless you elect to allocate a portion of your basis of previously owned common stock to the subscription rights issued to you in this rights offering. If the aggregate fair market value of the subscription rights at the time they are distributed is 15% or more of the aggregate fair market value of our common stock at such time, or if you elect to allocate a portion of your basis of previously owned common stock to the subscription rights issued to you in this offering, then your basis in previously owned common stock will be allocated between such common stock and the subscription rights based upon the relative fair market value of such common stock and the subscription rights as of the date of the distribution of the subscription rights. Thus, if such an allocation is made and the rights are later exercised, the basis in the common stock you originally owned will be reduced by an amount equal to the basis allocated to the subscription rights. An election must be made in a statement attached to your federal income tax return for the year in which the subscription rights are distributed. If the subscription rights expire without exercise, you will realize no loss and no portion of your basis in the common stock will be allocated to the unexercised subscription rights. If you sell, exchange or otherwise dispose of subscription rights received in the rights offering prior to the expiration date, you will recognize capital gain or loss equal to the difference between (i) 44
the amount of cash and the fair market value of any property received, and (ii) your tax basis (if any) in the subscription rights disposed of. Any such capital gain or loss will be long-term capital gain or loss if your holding period for the subscription rights exceeds one year at the time of disposition. Your holding period for the subscription rights received in the rights offering will include your holding period for the common stock with respect to which the rights were received.

Kretzman, Esq., Senior Vice President, General Counsel and Secretary of Revlon.

ITEM 15. INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS Section 102(b)(7) of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware allows a corporation to eliminate or limit the personal liability of directors to a corporation or its stockholders for monetary damages for a breach of fiduciary duty as a director, except where the director breached his duty of loyalty, failed to act in good faith, engaged in intentional misconduct or knowingly violated a law, authorized the payment of a dividend or approved a stock repurchase or redemption in violation of Delaware corporate law or obtained an improper personal benefit. Section 145 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware empowers a Delaware corporation to indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (other than an action by or in the right of such corporation) by reason of the fact that such person is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of such corporation, or is or was serving at the request of such corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise. The indemnity may include expenses (including attorneys' fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection with such action, suit or proceeding, provided that such person acted in good faith and in a manner such person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe such person's conduct was unlawful. A Delaware corporation may indemnify directors, officers, employees and other agents of such corporation in an action by or in the right of a corporation under the same conditions against expenses (including attorneys' fees) actually and reasonably incurred by the person in connection with the defense and settlement of such action or suit, except that no indemnification is permitted without judicial approval if the person to be indemnified has been adjudged to be liable to the corporation. Where a present or former director or officer of the corporation is successful on the merits or otherwise in the defense of any action, suit or proceeding referred to above or in defense of any claim, issue or matter therein, the corporation must indemnify such person against the expenses (including attorneys' fees) which he or she actually and reasonably incurred in connection therewith. Article X of the By-laws of Revlon, Inc. (the "Company") provides for indemnification of the officers and directors of the Company to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law. Section 8 of Article X of the By-laws provides that the Company may purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of its directors and officers. The indemnification and advancement of expenses shall, unless otherwise provided when authorized or ratified, continue as to a person who has ceased to be a director or officer and shall inure to the benefit of the heirs, executors and administrators of such a person. Section 11 of Article X of the By-laws provides that except for proceedings to enforce rights to indemnification, the Company shall not be obligated to indemnify any director or officer in connection II-1
with a proceeding (or part thereof) initiated by such person unless such proceeding (or part thereof) was authorized or consented to by the Board of Directors of the Company. Article Fifth (4) of the Company's Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation provides that no director shall be personally liable to the Company or any of its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director, except for liability (i) for any breach of the director's duty of loyalty to the Company or its stockholders, (ii) for acts or omissions not in good faith or that involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, (iii) pursuant to Section 174 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware or (iv) for any transaction from which the director derived an improper personal benefit. Any repeal or modification of this Article by the stockholders of the Company shall not adversely affect any right or protection of a director of the Company existing at the time of such repeal or modification with respect to acts or omissions occurring prior to such repeal or modification.

ITEM 17. UNDERTAKINGS The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes: (1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement: (i) To include any prospectus required by section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933; (ii) To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the registration statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information in the registration statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than 20 percent change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the "Calculation of Registration Fee" table in the effective registration statement; and (iii) To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or any material change to such information in the registration statement. (2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof. (3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering. (4) That, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each filing of the registrant's annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan's annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) that is incorporated by reference in the registration statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof. Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the SEC such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933 and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel that matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933 and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue. The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that: (1) For purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, the information omitted from the form of prospectus filed as part of this registration statement in reliance upon Rule 430A and contained in a form of prospectus filed by the registrant pursuant to Rule 424(b)(1) or (4) or 497(h) under the Securities Act shall be deemed to be part of this registration statement as of the time it was declared effective; and II-4
(2) For the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each post-effective amendment that contains a form of prospectus shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered in any such amendment, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering of such securities. II-5

[REVLON, INC. LETTERHEAD] March , 2003 Revlon, Inc. 625 Madison Avenue New York, NY 10022 Re: Revlon, Inc. Registration Statement on Form S-3 Ladies and Gentlemen: I am a Senior Vice President, General Counsel and Secretary of Revlon, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "Company"), and have acted as its counsel in connection with the registration by the Company of (i) transferable subscription rights (the "Rights") to be distributed in connection with a rights offering (the "Rights Offering") by the Company to the holders of record of its Class A and Class B common stock, par value $0.01 per share (collectively the "Holders"), and (ii) up to 3,913,044 shares (the "Shares") of the Company's Class A common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the "Class A Common Stock"), issuable upon the exercise of the Rights. This opinion is being furnished in accordance with the requirements of Item 601(b)(5) of Regulation S-K under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Act"). In connection with this opinion, I have examined originals or copies, certified or otherwise identified to my satisfaction, of (i) the Registration Statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-102969) filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission") under the Act on February 5, 2003, as amended by Amendment No. 1 to the Form S-3, filed with the Commission on March 28, 2003 ( as amended, the "Registration Statement"); (ii) the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation of the Company, as amended to date and currently in effect; (iii) the Amended and Restated By-Laws of the Company, as amended to date and currently in effect; (iv) certain resolutions of the Board of Directors of the Company, relating to the establishment of an independent special committee of the Board of Directors of the Company (the "Special Committee"); (v) certain resolutions
Revlon, Inc. ________ __, 2003 Page 2 of the Special Committee relating to the issuance of both the Rights and the Shares in connection with the Rights Offering; (vi) certain resolutions of the Board of Directors of the Company relating to the issuance of both the Rights and the Shares in connection with the Rights Offering; (vii) a copy of a specimen Subscription Rights Certificate representing the Rights; and (viii) a copy of a specimen stock certificate representing the Shares. I also have examined originals or copies, certified or otherwise identified to my satisfaction, of such records of the Company and such agreements, certificates of public officials, certificates of officers or other representatives of the Company and others, and such other documents, certificates and records as I have deemed necessary or appropriate as a basis for the opinions set forth herein. In my examination, I have assumed the legal capacity of all natural persons, the genuineness of all signatures, the authenticity of all documents submitted to me as originals, the conformity to original documents of all documents submitted to me as certified, conformed or photostatic copies and the authenticity of the originals of such latter documents. In making my examination of executed documents, I have assumed that the parties thereto, other than the Company and its directors and officers, had the power, corporate or other, to enter into and perform all obligations thereunder and have also assumed the due authorization by all requisite action, corporate or other, and execution and delivery by such parties of such documents and the validity and binding effect thereof on such parties. As to any facts material to the opinions expressed herein that I have not independently established or verified, I have relied upon statements and representations of officers and other representatives of the Company and others. I am an attorney-at-law admitted to practice in the State of New York. I do not express any opinion as to the laws of any jurisdiction other than the corporate laws of the State of New York and the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, and I do not express any opinion as to the effect of any other laws on the opinion stated herein. Based upon and subject to the foregoing, I am of the opinion that: 1. The issuance of the Rights has been duly authorized; when the Registration Statement becomes effective under the Act and the Rights are
Revlon, Inc. ________ __, 2003 Page 3 distributed to the Holders as contemplated in the Registration Statement, they will be validly issued; and when the Rights Offering has expired in accordance with its terms, the Rights will be binding obligations of the Company enforceable against the Company in accordance with their terms, except as such enforcement may be limited by (A) bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, fraudulent conveyance, moratorium or other similar laws now or hereafter in effect relating to creditor's rights generally and (B) general principles of equity (regardless of whether enforceability is considered in a proceeding at law or in equity). 2. The issuance and sale of the Shares upon exercise of the Rights have been duly authorized and when (i) the Registration Statement becomes effective under the Act, (ii) the Holders of the Rights have complied with the terms of the Rights in connection with the exercise thereof and (iii) certificates representing the Shares in the form of the specimen certificate examined by me have been manually signed by an authorized officer of the transfer agent and registrar for the Class A Common Stock and registered by such transfer agent and registrar, and have been delivered to and paid for as contemplated by the Rights and at a price per share not less than the per share par value of the Class A Common Stock, the Shares will be validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable. I hereby consent to the filing of this opinion with the Commission as an exhibit to the Registration Statement. In giving this consent, I do not thereby admit that I am included in the category of persons whose consent is required under Section 7 of the Act or the rules and regulations of the Commission.

Registration Statement on Form S-3 Registration No. 333-102969 Ladies and gentlemen: We have acted as counsel to Revlon, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the "Company"), in connection with the above-captioned registration statement on Form S-3 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission") on February 5, 2003, as amended by Amendment 1 thereto filed with the Commission on March __,2003 (such registration statement, as so amended, the "Registration Statement") for the purpose of registering transferable subscription rights ( the "Rights") distributed in connection with a rights offering by the Company to holders of record of its Class A and Class B common stock, par value $0.01 per share (collectively the "Holders") and (ii) up to [3, 913,044] shares of the Company's Class A common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the "Class A Common Stock"), issuable upon the exercise of the Rights. This opinion is being provided to you in accordance with the requirements of Item 601(b)(8) of Regulation S-K under the Securities Act. In rendering our opinion set forth below, we have reviewed the Registration Statement, the prospectus thereunder (the "Prospectus") and such other materials as we have deemed necessary or appropriate as a basis for our opinion. In addition, we have considered the current provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of
Revlon, Inc. March ,2003 Page 2 1986, as amended (the "Code"), Treasury regulations promulgated thereunder, judicial decisions and Internal Revenue Service ("Service") rulings, all of which are subject to change, possibly with retroactive effect. A change in the authorities upon which our opinion is based could affect our conclusions. There can be no assurances, moreover, that the opinion expressed herein will be accepted by the Service or, if challenged, by a court. Based solely upon and subject to the foregoing, we are of the opinion that, although the discussion set forth in the Prospectus under the heading "CERTAIN UNITED STATES FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES" does not purport to discuss all possible United States federal income tax consequences of the acquisition, ownership, exercise, exchange and disposition of the Rights and the Class A Common Stock, such discussion constitutes, in all material respects, a fair and accurate summary of the United States federal income tax consequences of the acquisition, ownership, exercise, exchange and disposition of the Rights and the Class A Common Stock to Holders. Except as set forth above, we express no opinion to any party as to the tax consequences, whether federal, state, local or foreign, of the issuance of the Rights or the Class A Common Stock or of any transaction related to or contemplated by such issuance. We disclaim any undertaking to advise you of any subsequent changes of the facts stated or assumed herein or any subsequent changes in applicable law. We hereby consent to the use of our name under the heading "Legal Matters" in the Prospectus and the filing of this opinion with the Commission as Exhibit 8.1 to the Registration Statement. In giving this consent, we do not thereby admit that we are within the category of persons whose consent is required under Section 7 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the rules and regulations of the Commission promulgated thereunder.

EXHIBIT 99.1 INSTRUCTIONS AS TO USE OF REVLON, INC. SUBSCRIPTION RIGHTS CERTIFICATES CONSULT THE INFORMATION AGENT, YOUR BANK OR BROKER AS TO ANY QUESTIONS The following instructions relate to a rights offering (the "Rights Offering") by Revlon, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("Revlon"), to the holders of record (the "Recordholders") of its Class A and Class B common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the "Common Stock"), as described in Revlon's Prospectus dated , 2003 (the "Prospectus"). Recordholders of Common Stock at the close of business on , 2003 (the "Record Date") are receiving transferable subscription rights (the "Rights") to subscribe for and purchase shares of Revlon's Class A common stock (the "Underlying Shares"). An aggregate of Underlying Shares are being offered by the Prospectus. Each Recordholder will receive one Right for each shares of Common Stock owned of record as of the close of business on the Record Date. The Rights will expire, if not exercised, at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on , 2003, unless extended in the sole discretion of Revlon (as it may be extended, the "Expiration Date"). After the Expiration Date, unexercised Rights will be null and void. Revlon will not be obligated to honor any purported exercise of Rights received by American Stock Transfer & Trust Company (the "Subscription Agent") after 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the Expiration Date, regardless of when the documents relating to such exercise were sent, except pursuant to the Guaranteed Delivery Procedures described below. Revlon may extend the Expiration Date by giving oral or written notice to the Subscription Agent on or before the Expiration Date, followed by a press release no later than 9:00 a.m., New York City time, on the next business day after the previously scheduled Expiration Date. The Rights will be evidenced by transferable Rights certificates (the "Subscription Rights Certificates"). Each Right allows the holder thereof to subscribe for one share of Class A common stock (the "Basic Subscription Privilege") at the cash price of $ per share (the "Subscription Price"). In addition, each holder of Rights who exercises their Basic Subscription Privilege in full will be eligible to subscribe (the "Over-Subscription Privilege") at the same cash price of $ per share for shares of Class A common stock that are not purchased pursuant to the exercise of Rights by other holders of Rights (except MacAndrews & Forbes) under the Basic Subscription Privilege (the "Excess Shares"), subject to availability and pro ration as described below. Each holder of Rights may only exercise their Over-Subscription Privilege if they exercised their Basic Subscription Privilege in full and other holders of Rights (except MacAndrews & Forbes) do not exercise their Basic Subscription Privilege in full. If there are not enough Excess Shares to satisfy all subscriptions made under the Over-Subscription Privilege, Revlon will allocate the remaining Excess Shares pro rata, after eliminating all fractional shares, among those Rights holders who exercised their Over-Subscription Privileges. "Pro rata" means in proportion to the number of Underlying Shares that each holder of Rights has purchased by exercising their Basic Subscription Privileges. If there is a pro rata allocation of the remaining Excess Shares and a holder of Rights receives an allocation of a greater number of Excess Shares than they subscribed for under their Over-Subscription Privilege, then Revlon will allocate to them only the number of Excess Shares for which they subscribed. Revlon will allocate the remaining Excess Shares among all other holders exercising their Over-Subscription Privileges. See "The Rights Offering-- Subscription Privileges" in the Prospectus. The number of Rights to which you are entitled is printed on the face of your Subscription Rights Certificate. You should indicate your wishes with regard to the exercise or transfer of your Rights by completing the appropriate portions of your Subscription Rights Certificate and returning the certificate to the Subscription Agent in the envelope provided pursuant to the procedures described in the Prospectus.
YOUR SUBSCRIPTION RIGHTS CERTIFICATES OR NOTICE OF GUARANTEED DELIVERY, AND SUBSCRIPTION PRICE PAYMENT, INCLUDING FINAL CLEARANCE OF ANY CHECKS, MUST BE RECEIVED BY THE SUBSCRIPTION AGENT, ON OR BEFORE 5:00 P.M., NEW YORK CITY TIME, ON THE EXPIRATION DATE. ONCE A HOLDER OF RIGHTS HAS EXERCISED THE BASIC SUBSCRIPTION PRIVILEGE OR THE OVER-SUBSCRIPTION PRIVILEGE, SUCH EXERCISE MAY NOT BE REVOKED. RIGHTS NOT EXERCISED PRIOR TO THE EXPIRATION DATE OF THE RIGHTS OFFERING WILL EXPIRE WITHOUT VALUE. 1. METHOD OF SUBSCRIPTION--EXERCISE OF RIGHTS. To exercise Rights, complete your Subscription Rights Certificate and send the properly completed and executed Subscription Rights Certificate evidencing such Rights with any signatures required to be guaranteed so guaranteed, together with payment in full of the Subscription Price for each Underlying Share subscribed for pursuant to the Basic Subscription Privilege and the Over-Subscription Privilege, to the Subscription Agent, on or prior to 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the Expiration Date. Payment of the Subscription Price will be held in a segregated account to be maintained by the Subscription Agent. All payments must be made in U.S. dollars for the full number of Underlying Shares being subscribed for (a) by check or bank draft drawn upon a U.S. bank or postal, telegraphic or express money order payable to American Stock Transfer & Trust Company, as Subscription Agent, or (b) by wire transfer of immediately available funds, to the account maintained by the Subscription Agent for purposes of accepting subscriptions in the Rights Offering at JPMorgan Chase Bank, 55 Water Street, New York, New York, 10005, ABA No. 021 000 021, Account #323-113109 (the "Subscription Account"). Any wire transfer should clearly indicate the identity of the subscriber who is paying the Subscription Price by the wire transfer. Payments will be deemed to have been received by the Subscription Agent only upon (i) clearance of any uncertified check, (ii) receipt by the Subscription Agent of any certified check or bank draft drawn upon a U.S. bank or of any postal, telegraphic or express money order or (iii) receipt of collected funds in the Subscription Account designated above. If paying by check, bank draft or money order, please reference your Subscription Rights Certificate number on your check, bank draft or money order. If paying by uncertified personal check, please note that the funds paid thereby may take at least five business days to clear. Accordingly, Rights holders who wish to pay the Subscription Price by means of uncertified personal check are urged to make payment sufficiently in advance of the Expiration Date to ensure that such payment is received and clears by such date and are urged to consider payment by means of certified or cashier's check, money order or wire transfer of funds.

By making arrangements with your bank or broker for the delivery of funds on your behalf you may also request such bank or broker to exercise the Subscription Rights Certificate on your behalf. Alternatively, you may cause a written guarantee substantially in the form of Exhibit A to these instructions (the "Notice of Guaranteed Delivery"), from a member firm of a registered national securities exchange or a member of the National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc., or from a commercial bank or trust company having an office or correspondent in the United States or from a bank, stockbroker, savings and loan association or credit union with membership in an approved signature guarantee medallion program, pursuant to Rule 17Ad-15 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (each, an "Eligible Institution"), to be received by the Subscription Agent on or prior to the Expiration Date together with payment in full of the applicable Subscription Price. Such Notice of Guaranteed Delivery must state your name, the number of Rights represented by the Subscription Rights Certificate or Subscription Rights Certificates held by you, the number of Underlying Shares being subscribed for pursuant to your Basic Subscription Privilege and the number of Underlying Shares, if any, being subscribed for pursuant to the Over-Subscription Privilege, and that you will guarantee the delivery to the Subscription Agent of any properly completed and executed Subscription Rights Certificate or Subscription Rights Certificates evidencing such Rights within three (3) business days following the date of the Notice of Guaranteed Delivery. If this procedure is followed, the properly completed Subscription Rights Certificate or Subscription Rights Certificates evidencing the Rights being exercised, with any signatures required to be guaranteed so guaranteed, must be received by the Subscription Agent within three (3) business days following the date of the Notice of Guaranteed Delivery. The Notice of Guaranteed Delivery may be delivered to the Subscription Agent in the same manner as Subscription Rights Certificates at the address set forth above, or may be transmitted to the Subscription Agent by facsimile transmission (Facsimile No.: (718) 234-5001). Additional copies of the Notice of Guaranteed Delivery may be obtained upon request from the Information Agent at the address, or by calling the telephone number, set forth above. Banks, brokers and other nominee holders of Rights who exercise the Basic Subscription Privilege and the Over-Subscription Privilege on behalf of beneficial owners of Rights will be required to certify to the Subscription Agent and Revlon, in connection with the exercise of the Over-Subscription Privilege, as to the aggregate number of Rights that have been exercised and the number of Underlying Shares that are being subscribed for pursuant to the Over-Subscription Privilege, by each beneficial owner of Rights (including such nominee itself) on whose behalf such nominee holder is acting. If more Excess Shares are subscribed for pursuant to the Over-Subscription Privilege than are available for sale, the Excess Shares will be allocated, as described above, among beneficial owners exercising the Over-Subscription Privilege in proportion to such owners' exercise of Rights pursuant to the Basic Subscription Privilege. If you exercise less than all of the Rights evidenced by your Subscription Rights Certificate by so indicating in Form 1 of your Subscription Rights Certificate, and do not elect to instruct the subscription agent to sell your unexercised Rights in Form 3, the Subscription Agent either (i) if you so request, will issue to you a new Subscription Rights Certificate evidencing the unexercised Rights or (ii) if you so indicate in Form 2 of your Subscription Rights Certificate, will transfer the unexercised Rights in accordance with your instructions. A new Subscription Rights Certificate will be issued to you or transferred according to your instructions upon the partial exercise of Rights only if the Subscription Agent receives a properly endorsed Subscription Rights Certificate no later than 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on , 2003, the third business day prior to the Expiration Date. After such date no new Subscription Rights Certificates will be issued. Accordingly, after such date if you exercise less than all of your Rights, you will lose the power to exercise your remaining Rights. All deliveries of newly issued Subscription Rights Certificates will be at your own risk. If the aggregate Subscription Price paid by you is insufficient to purchase the number of Underlying Shares subscribed for, or if no number of Underlying Shares to be purchased is specified, then you will be deemed to have exercised the Basic Subscription Privilege to purchase Underlying Shares to the full extent of the payment tendered. If the aggregate Subscription Price paid by you exceeds the amount necessary to purchase the number of Underlying Shares for which you have indicated an intention to subscribe (such excess being the "Subscription Excess"), then you will be deemed to have exercised the Over-Subscription Privilege to 3
the full extent of the excess payment tendered, to purchase, to the extent available, that number of whole shares of Class A common stock equal to the quotient obtained by dividing the Subscription Excess by the Subscription Price. Any remaining amount shall be returned to you by mail, without interest or deduction, as soon as practicable after the Expiration Date and after all pro rations and adjustments contemplated by the terms of the Rights Offering have been effected. 2. ISSUANCE OF CLASS A COMMON STOCK. The following deliveries and payments will be made to the address shown on the face of your Subscription Rights Certificate unless you provide instructions to the contrary in Form 4 of your Subscription Rights Certificate. a. Basic Subscription Privilege. As soon as practicable after the Expiration Date and the valid exercise of Rights, the Subscription Agent will mail to each exercising Rights holder certificates representing shares of Class A common stock purchased pursuant to the Basic Subscription Privilege. See "The Rights Offering--Subscription Privileges--Basic Subscription Privilege" in the Prospectus. b. Over-Subscription Privilege. As soon as practicable after the Expiration Date and after all pro rations and adjustments contemplated by the terms of the Rights Offering have been effected, the Subscription Agent will mail to each Rights holder who validly exercises the Over-Subscription Privilege certificates representing the number of shares of Class A common stock, if any, allocated to such Rights holder pursuant to the Over-Subscription Privilege. See "The Rights Offering--Subscription Privileges--Over-Subscription Privilege" in the Prospectus. c. Excess Cash Payments. As soon as practicable after the Expiration Date and after all pro rations and adjustments contemplated by the terms of the Rights Offering have been effected, the Subscription Agent will mail to each Rights holder who exercises the Over-Subscription Privilege any excess amount, without interest or deduction, received in payment of the Subscription Price for Excess Shares that are subscribed for by such Rights holder but not allocated to such Rights holder pursuant to the Over-Subscription Privilege. 3. SALE OR TRANSFER OF RIGHTS. a. Sale of Rights Through a Bank or Broker. To sell all Rights evidenced by a Subscription Rights Certificate through your bank or broker, sign Form 2 of your Subscription Rights Certificate leaving the rest of the Form blank (your broker will add the buyer's name later). You must have your signature on Form 2 guaranteed in Form 5 by an Eligible Institution and deliver your Subscription Rights Certificate and the accompanying envelope to your bank or broker. Your Subscription Rights Certificate should be delivered to your bank or broker in ample time for it to be exercised. If Form 2 is completed without designating a transferee, the Subscription Agent may thereafter treat the bearer of the Subscription Rights Certificate as the absolute owner of all of the Rights evidenced by such Subscription Rights Certificate for all purposes, and the Subscription Agent shall not be affected by any notice to the contrary. Because your bank or broker cannot issue Subscription Rights Certificates, if you wish to sell less than all of the Rights evidenced by a Subscription Rights Certificate, either you or your bank or broker must instruct the Subscription Agent as to the action to be taken with respect to the Rights not sold, or you or your bank or broker must first have your Subscription Rights Certificate divided into Subscription Rights Certificates of appropriate denominations by following the instructions in Section 4 of these instructions. The Subscription Rights Certificates evidencing the number of Rights you intend to sell can then be transferred by your bank or broker in accordance with the instructions in this Section 3(a). b. Transfer of Rights to a Designated Transferee. To transfer all of your Rights to a transferee other than a bank or broker, you must complete Form 2 in its entirety, execute the Subscription Rights Certificate and have your signature guaranteed in Form 5 by an Eligible Institution. A Subscription Rights Certificate that has been properly transferred in its entirety may be exercised 4
by a new holder without having a new Subscription Rights Certificate issued. In order to exercise, or otherwise take action with respect to, such a transferred Subscription Rights Certificate, the new holder should deliver the Subscription Rights Certificate, together with payment of the applicable Subscription Price (with respect to the exercise of both the Basic Subscription Privilege and the Over-Subscription Privilege) and complete separate instructions signed by the new holder, to the Subscription Agent in ample time to permit the Subscription Agent to take the desired action. Because only the Subscription Agent can issue Subscription Rights Certificates, if you wish to transfer less than all of the Rights evidenced by your Subscription Rights Certificate to a designated transferee, you must instruct the Subscription Agent as to the action to be taken with respect to the Rights not sold or transferred, or you must divide your Subscription Rights Certificate into Subscription Rights Certificates of appropriate smaller denominations by following the instructions in Section 4 below. The Subscription Rights Certificate evidencing the number of Rights you intend to transfer can then be transferred by following the instructions in this Section 3(b). Rights holders wishing to transfer a portion of their Rights (but not fractional Rights) should allow a sufficient amount of time prior to the Expiration Date for (i) the transfer instructions to be received and processed by the Subscription Agent, (ii) a new Subscription Rights Certificate to be issued and transmitted to the transferee or transferees with respect to transferred Rights and to the transferor with respect to retained Rights, if any, and (iii) the Rights evidenced by such new Subscription Rights Certificates to be exercised or sold by the recipients thereof. The Subscription Agent will facilitate transfers of Subscription Rights Certificates only until 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on _____, 2003, the third business day before the Expiration Date. Neither Revlon nor the Subscription Agent shall have any liability to a transferee or transferor of Rights if Subscription Rights Certificates are not received in time for exercise or sale prior to the Expiration Date. c. Sale of All Unexercised Rights Through the Subscription Agent. To sell all unexercised Rights evidenced by a Subscription Rights Certificate through the Subscription Agent, so indicate on Form 3, follow the instructions set forth in Form 3 and deliver your properly completed and executed Subscription Rights Certificate to the Subscription Agent on or before 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on , 2003, three business days before the Expiration Date. If the Subscription Agent sells any of your Rights, such Rights will be deemed to have been sold at the weighted average net sale price of all Rights sold by the Subscription Agent on the relevant date of sale. As soon as practicable following the sale, the Subscription Agent will send the holder a check for the net proceeds from the sale of any Rights sold, less any applicable commissions, taxes or brokers fees. The Subscription Agent's obligation to execute sell orders is subject to its ability to find buyers for the Rights. We cannot assure you that a market will develop or be maintained for the Rights or that the Subscription Agent will be able to sell any Rights. The Subscription Agent must receive from you any order to sell your Rights before 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on , 2003, the third business day before the Expiration Date. We encourage you to review the discussion in the Prospectus under the heading "The Rights Offering -- Method of Transferring and Selling -- Sales of Rights Through the Subscription Agent." d. Sale of Less than All Unexercised Rights Through the Subscription Agent. If you wish to sell less than all of your unexercised Rights (but no fractional Rights) evidenced by a Subscription Rights Certificate, so indicate on Form 3 and attach separate instructions to the Subscription Agent as to the action to be taken with respect to the unexercised Rights not sold. Such instructions should be substantially in the form of Form 2 and your signature on such instructions should be guaranteed by an Eligible Institution. Alternatively, you may first have your Subscription Rights Certificate divided into Subscription Rights Certificates of appropriate denominations by following the instructions in Section 4 below. The Subscription Rights Certificate evidencing the number of unexercised Rights you intend to transfer can then be transferred by following the instructions above. 5
If the Subscription Agent sells any of your Rights, such Rights will be deemed to have been sold at the weighted average sale price of all Rights sold by the Subscription Agent on the relevant date of sale. As soon as practicable following the sale, the Subscription Agent will send the holder a check for the net proceeds from the sale of any Rights sold. The Subscription Agent's obligation to execute sell orders is subject to its ability to find buyers for the Rights. e. Commissions, Fees and Expenses. Revlon will pay all fees and expenses of the Subscription Agent and the Information Agent and has also agreed to indemnify the Subscription Agent and the Information Agent from certain liabilities that they may incur in connection with the rights offering. All commissions, fees and other expenses (including brokerage commissions and transfer taxes) incurred in connection with the purchase, sale or exercise of Rights will be for the account of the transferor of the Rights, and none of such commissions, fees or expenses will be paid by Revlon, the Information Agent or the Subscription Agent. 4. DIVISION OF SUBSCRIPTION RIGHTS CERTIFICATE INTO SMALLER DENOMINATIONS. To have a Subscription Rights Certificate divided into smaller denominations, send your Subscription Rights Certificate, together with complete separate instructions (including specification of the denominations into which you wish your Rights to be divided) signed by you, to the Subscription Agent, allowing a sufficient amount of time for new Subscription Rights Certificates to be issued and returned so that they can be used prior to the Expiration Date. Alternatively, you may ask a bank or broker to effect such actions on your behalf. The Subscription Agent will facilitate subdivisions of Subscription Rights Certificates only until 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on , 2003, three business days prior to the Expiration Date. Your signature must be guaranteed by an Eligible Institution if any of the new Subscription Rights Certificates are to be issued in a name other than that in which the old Subscription Rights Certificate was issued. Subscription Rights Certificates may not be divided into fractional Rights, and any instruction to do so will be rejected. As a result of delays in the mail, the time of the transmittal, the necessary processing time and other factors, you or your transferee may not receive such new Subscription Rights Certificates in time to enable the Rights holder to complete a sale or exercise by the Expiration Date. Neither Revlon, the Information Agent nor the Subscription Agent will be liable to either a transferor or transferee for any such delays. 5. EXECUTION. a. Execution by Registered Holder. The signature on the Subscription Rights Certificate must correspond with the name of the registered holder exactly as it appears on the face of the Subscription Rights Certificate without any alteration, enlargement or change whatsoever. Persons who sign the Subscription Rights Certificate in a representative or other fiduciary capacity must indicate their capacity when signing and, unless waived by the Subscription Agent in its sole and absolute discretion, must present to the Subscription Agent satisfactory evidence of their authority to so act. b. Execution by Person Other than Registered Holder. If the Subscription Rights Certificate is executed by a person other than the holder named on the face of the Subscription Rights Certificate, proper evidence of authority of the person executing the Subscription Rights Certificate must accompany the same unless, for good cause, the Subscription Agent dispenses with proof of authority. c. Signature Guarantees. Your signature must be guaranteed by an Eligible Institution if you specify special payment or delivery instructions. 6. METHOD OF DELIVERY TO SUBSCRIPTION AGENT. The method of delivery of Subscription Rights Certificates and payment of the Subscription Price to the Subscription Agent will be at the election and risk of the Rights holder, but, if sent by mail, it is recommended that such certificates and payments be sent by registered mail, properly insured, with return receipt requested, and that a sufficient number of days be allowed to ensure delivery to the Subscription 6
Agent and the clearance of payment prior to 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the Expiration Date. Because uncertified personal checks may take at least five business days to clear, you are strongly urged to pay, or arrange for payment, by means of certified or cashier's check, money order or wire transfer of funds. 7. SPECIAL PROVISIONS RELATING TO THE DELIVERY OF RIGHTS THROUGH THE DEPOSITORY TRUST COMPANY. In the case of Rights that are held of record through the Depository Trust Company (the "Book-Entry Transfer Facility"), exercises of the Basic Subscription Privilege and of the Over-Subscription Privilege may be effected by instructing the Book-Entry Transfer Facility to transfer Rights from the Book-Entry Transfer Facility account of such holder to the Book-Entry Transfer Facility account of the Subscription Agent, together with certification as to the aggregate number of Rights exercised and the number of Underlying Shares thereby subscribed for pursuant to the Basic Subscription Privilege and the Over-Subscription Privilege by each beneficial owner of Rights on whose behalf such nominee is acting, and payment of the Subscription Price for each share of Class A common stock subscribed for pursuant to the Basic Subscription Privilege and the Over-Subscription Privilege. 7

EXHIBIT 99.3 REVLON, INC. SHARES OF CLASS A COMMON STOCK OFFERED PURSUANT TO RIGHTS DISTRIBUTED TO RECORD STOCKHOLDERS OF REVLON, INC. , 2003 Dear Stockholder: This notice is being distributed by Revlon, Inc. ("Revlon") to all holders of record ("Recordholders") of shares of its Class A and Class B common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the "Common Stock"), at the close of business on , 2003 (the "Record Date"), in connection with a distribution in a rights offering (the "Rights Offering") of transferable subscription rights (the "Rights") to subscribe for and purchase shares of its Class A common stock. The Rights are described in Revlon's Prospectus dated , 2003 (the "Prospectus"). In the Rights Offering, Revlon is offering an aggregate of shares of its Class A common stock (the "Underlying Shares"), as described in the Prospectus. The Rights will expire, if not exercised, at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on , 2003, unless extended in the sole discretion of Revlon (as it may be extended, the "Expiration Date"). As described in the accompanying Prospectus, you will receive one Right for each shares of Common Stock owned of record as of the close of business on the Record Date. Each Right will allow you to subscribe for one share of Class A common stock (the "Basic Subscription Privilege") at the cash price of $ per share (the "Subscription Price"). In addition, each holder of Rights who exercises their Basic Subscription Privilege in full will be eligible to subscribe (the "Over-Subscription Privilege") at the same cash price of $ per share for shares of Class A common stock that are not otherwise purchased pursuant to the exercise of Rights by other holders of Rights (except MacAndrews & Forbes) under the Basic Subscription Privilege (the "Excess Shares"), subject to availability and pro ration as described below. Each holder of Rights may only exercise their Over-Subscription Privilege if they exercised their Basic Subscription Privilege in full and other holders of Rights (except MacAndrews & Forbes) do not exercise their Basic Subscription Privilege in full. If there are not enough Excess Shares to satisfy all subscriptions made under the Over-Subscription Privilege, Revlon will allocate the remaining Excess Shares pro rata, after eliminating all fractional shares, among those Rights holders who exercised their Over-Subscription Privileges. "Pro rata" means in proportion to the number of Underlying Shares that each holder of Rights has purchased by exercising their Basic Subscription Privileges. If there is a pro rata allocation of the remaining Excess Shares and a holder of Rights receives an allocation of a greater number of Excess Shares than they subscribed for under their Over-Subscription Privilege, then Revlon will allocate to them only the number of Excess Shares for which they subscribed. Revlon will allocate the remaining Excess Shares among all other holders exercising their Over-Subscription Privileges. See "The Rights Offering--Subscription Privileges" in the Prospectus. The Rights will be evidenced by transferable Rights certificates (the "Subscription Rights Certificates") and will be transferable until the close of business on the last trading day preceding the Expiration Date, at which time they will cease to have value. Enclosed are copies of the following documents: 1. Prospectus; 2. Subscription Rights Certificate;
3. Instructions as to Use of Revlon, Inc. Subscription Rights Certificates (including a Notice of Guaranteed Delivery for Subscription Rights Certificates Issued by Revlon, Inc.); and 4. A return envelope addressed to American Stock Transfer & Trust Company, the Subscription Agent. Your prompt action is requested. To exercise Rights, you should properly complete and sign the Subscription Rights Certificate (or the Notice of Guaranteed Delivery if you are following the Guaranteed Delivery Procedures) and forward it, with payment of the Subscription Price in full for each share of Class A common stock subscribed for pursuant to the Basic Subscription Privilege and the Over-Subscription Privilege, to the Subscription Agent, as indicated in the Prospectus. The Subscription Agent must receive the Subscription Rights Certificate or Notice of Guaranteed Delivery with payment of the Subscription Price, including final clearance of any checks, prior to 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the Expiration Date. FAILURE TO RETURN THE PROPERLY COMPLETED SUBSCRIPTION RIGHTS CERTIFICATE WITH THE CORRECT PAYMENT WILL RESULT IN YOUR NOT BEING ABLE TO EXERCISE YOUR RIGHTS. A Rights holder cannot revoke the exercise of its Rights. Rights not exercised or sold prior to the Expiration Date will expire without value. Additional copies of the enclosed materials may be obtained from the Information Agent, D.F. King & Co., Inc. The Information Agent's telephone number is (800) 949-2583. Banks and brokers please call collect at (212) 269-5550. Very truly yours, REVLON, INC. 2
EXHIBIT 99.4 REVLON, INC. SHARES OF CLASS A COMMON STOCK OFFERED PURSUANT TO RIGHTS DISTRIBUTED TO RECORD STOCKHOLDERS OF REVLON, INC. TO SECURITIES DEALERS, COMMERCIAL BANKS, TRUST COMPANIES AND OTHER NOMINEES: This letter is being distributed to securities dealers, commercial banks, trust companies and other nominees in connection with the rights offering (the "Rights Offering") by Revlon, Inc. ("Revlon") of shares of its Class A common stock (as such term is defined below), pursuant to transferable subscription rights (the "Rights") distributed to all holders of record ("Recordholders") of shares of Revlon's Class A and Class B common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the "Common Stock"), at the close of business on , 2003 (the "Record Date"). The Rights are described in Revlon's Prospectus dated , 2003 (the "Prospectus"). In the Rights Offering, Revlon is offering an aggregate of shares of its Class A common stock, as described in the Prospectus. The Rights will expire, if not exercised, at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on , 2003, unless extended in the sole discretion of Revlon (as it may be extended, the "Expiration Date"). Each Right allows the holder thereof to subscribe for one share of Class A common stock (the "Basic Subscription Privilege") at the cash price of $ per share (the "Subscription Price"). Each Right also carries with it the ability for the holder thereof to subscribe (the "Over-Subscription Privilege") for additional shares of Class A common stock that have not been purchased by other Recordholders pursuant to their Basic Subscription Privilege, at the Subscription Price, if such holder has fully exercised its Basic Subscription Privilege. See "The Rights Offering--Subscription Privileges" in the Prospectus. The Rights are evidenced by a transferable Rights certificate (a "Subscription Rights Certificate") registered in your name or the name of your nominee. Each beneficial owner of shares of Common Stock registered in your name or the name of your nominee is entitled to one Right for each shares of Common Stock owned by such beneficial owner as of the close of business on the Record Date. The Rights will be transferable until the close of business on the last trading day preceding the Expiration Date, at which time they will cease to have value. We are asking persons who hold shares of Common Stock beneficially and who have received the Rights distributable with respect to those shares through a broker, dealer, commercial bank, trust company or other nominee, as well as persons who hold certificates of Common Stock directly and prefer to have such institutions effect transactions relating to the Rights on their behalf, to contact the appropriate institution or nominee and request it to effect the transactions for them. In addition, we are asking beneficial owners who wish to obtain a separate Subscription Rights Certificate to contact the appropriate nominee as soon as possible and request that a separate Subscription Rights Certificate be issued.

EXHIBIT 99.5 REVLON, INC. SHARES OF CLASS A COMMON STOCK OFFERED PURSUANT TO RIGHTS DISTRIBUTED TO RECORD STOCKHOLDERS OF REVLON, INC. , 2003 TO OUR CLIENTS: Enclosed for your consideration are a Prospectus, dated , 2003 (the "Prospectus"), and the "Instructions as to Use of Revlon, Inc. Subscription Rights Certificates" relating to the offering (the "Rights Offering") by Revlon, Inc. ("Revlon") of shares of its Class A common stock pursuant to transferable subscription rights (the "Rights") distributed to all holders of record of shares of its Class A and Class B common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the "Common Stock"), at the close of business on , 2003 (the "Record Date"). The Rights are described in Revlon's Prospectus. In the Rights Offering, Revlon is offering an aggregate of shares of its Class A common stock (the "Underlying Shares"), as described in the Prospectus. The Rights will expire, if not exercised, at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on , 2003, unless extended in the sole discretion of Revlon (as it may be extended, the "Expiration Date"). As described in the accompanying Prospectus, you will receive one Right for each shares of Common Stock carried by us in your account as of the Record Date. Each Right will allow you to subscribe for one share of Class A common stock (the "Basic Subscription Privilege") at the cash price of $ per share (the "Subscription Price"). In addition, each holder of Rights who exercises their Basic Subscription Privilege in full will be eligible to subscribe (the "Over-Subscription Privilege") at the same cash price of $ per share for shares of Class A common stock that are not otherwise purchased pursuant to the exercise of Rights under the Basic Subscription Privilege (the "Excess Shares"), subject to availability and pro ration as described below. Each holder of Rights may only exercise their Over-Subscription Privilege if they exercised their Basic Subscription Privilege in full and other holders of subscription Rights do not exercise their Basic Subscription Privilege in full. If there are not enough Excess Shares to satisfy all subscriptions made under the Over-Subscription Privilege, Revlon will allocate the remaining Excess Shares pro rata, after eliminating all fractional shares, among those Rights holders who exercised their Over-Subscription Privileges. "Pro rata" means in proportion to the number of Underlying Shares that each holder of Rights has purchased by exercising their Basic Subscription Privileges. If there is a pro rata allocation of the remaining Excess Shares and a holder of Rights receives an allocation of a greater number of Excess Shares than they subscribed for under their Over-Subscription Privilege, then Revlon will allocate to them only the number of Excess Shares for which they subscribed. Revlon will allocate the remaining Excess Shares among all other holders exercising their Over-Subscription Privileges. See "The Rights Offering-- Subscription Privileges" in the Prospectus. The Rights will be evidenced by transferable Rights certificates and will be null and void at the close of business on the Expiration Date. The Rights will be transferable until the close of business on the last trading day preceding the Expiration Date, at which time they will cease to have value. THE MATERIALS ENCLOSED ARE BEING FORWARDED TO YOU AS THE BENEFICIAL OWNER OF COMMON STOCK CARRIED BY US IN YOUR ACCOUNT BUT NOT REGISTERED IN YOUR NAME. EXERCISES AND SALES OF RIGHTS MAY BE MADE ONLY BY US AS THE RECORD OWNER AND PURSUANT TO YOUR INSTRUCTIONS.

Each Right is exercisable for one share of our Class A common stock (the "Basic Subscription Privilege"). You have been allocated the number of Rights referred to on your 401(k) Participant Election Form. In addition, each holder of Rights who instructs the trustee to exercise their Basic Subscription Privilege in full will be eligible to instruct the trustee to subscribe (the "Over-Subscription Privilege") at the same cash price of $ per share for shares of Class A common stock that are not otherwise purchased pursuant to the exercise of Rights by other Rights holders (the "Excess Shares"), subject to availability and pro ration as described below.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS REGARDING THE RIGHTS OFFERING AND THE REVLON 401(k) PLAN Q: How will I know how many Rights have been allocated to me based on the shares of Common Stock I hold in my account under the 401(k) Plan? A: Shortly after , 2003, the record date for the Rights Offering, we will arrange for all Plan participants for whose account the Plan holds shares of Revlon Class A common stock under the Plan as of the record date to receive the attached 401(k) Plan Participant Election Form, a copy of the Prospectus and other related materials. The 401(k) Plan Participant Election Form will indicate the number of Rights which have been allocated to your Plan account and how many additional shares of Class A common stock you may purchase by exercising your Rights under your Basic Subscription Privilege. Q: Who will decide whether or not to exercise the Rights to acquire additional shares of Class A common stock for my 401(k) account under the Plan? A: As a participant, you will be able to direct the trustee to: (1) Exercise the Basic Subscription Privilege as to Rights that have been allocated to your 401(k) account in whole or in part, (2) Exercise the Basic Subscription Privilege allocated to your 401(k) account in full and acquire additional shares of Class A common stock pursuant to the Over-Subscription Privilege, or (3) Sell any or all of the Rights and remit the net proceeds to an account in the Stable Value Fund. (If you do not currently invest in the Stable Value Fund, the trustee will create such an account for you.) If the trustee does not receive your instructions on or before , 2003, seven days prior to the expiration date of the Rights Offering, it will attempt to sell your Rights on your behalf and remit the proceeds of any sale to an account in the Stable Value Fund for your benefit (which will depend on whether an active trading market for the Rights is maintained). Q: Will I be able to direct the trustee to exercise or sell the Rights allocated to my 401(k) account if I am less than fully vested under the Plan? A: Yes, even though you are not fully vested in your benefits, you will have the sole power to determine whether or not you want to exercise or sell any or all of the Rights allocated to you. Q: If I do not have enough cash in my 401(k) account to purchase all of the shares of Class A common stock available under my Rights, can I personally acquire all of the shares Class A common stock available? A: No, you may not. Q: Could I lend some money to my 401(k) account in the Plan that could be used to exercise the Rights? A: No. Q: Can I direct the trustee to sell my investments in other investment funds held in my 401(k) account and to use the proceeds to pay for shares of Class A common stock that I want to purchase in the Rights Offering under the Rights that have been allocated to my account? A: Yes you can, subject to the normal rules and procedures applicable under the Plan to the sale and transfer of investments among the offerings in the Plan. In order to do this, you should contact the trustee at (800) 685-6415 or visit their website at www.ibenefitscenter.com. If you elect to exercise any Rights, you must ensure that the total amount of funds required for such exercise have been allocated to an account created by you or that you currently maintain in the Stable Value Fund (an existing investment election under the Plan) no later than , 2003, seven days prior to the expiration date of the Rights Offering. On , 2003, the trustee will transfer these funds from your Stable Value Fund account and use such funds to participate in the Rights Offering on your behalf. 3
Q: If I want to exercise or sell my Rights, how do I do so? A: You should carefully read and follow the instructions for exercise and sale contained in the accompanying information regarding the Rights Offering, including the section of the Prospectus entitled "The Rights Offering--Special Instructions for Participants in Our 401(k) Plan." Q: Where do I send my instructions? A: The 401(k) Plan Participant Election Form must be delivered to Putnam Fiduciary Trust Company, the trustee of the 401(k) plan, at the address set forth below: By Mail PUTNAM INVESTMENTS DEFINED CONTRIBUTION PLAN ADMINSITRATION P.O. Box 9740 Providence, RI, 02940-9889 By Hand Delivery or Overnight Courier: PUTNAM INVESTMENTS Investors Way Norwood, MA 02062-9105 Delivery to any address or by a method other than those set forth above will not constitute valid delivery. Q: When is the absolute last date for me to deliver my completed instructions to the trustee so that I can be assured that I will be able to acquire the shares of Class A common stock I want to purchase for my 401(k) account or sell my Rights? A: In order to give the trustee the time it needs to complete the necessary paperwork so that it may exercise or sell your Rights before the Rights Offering terminates on , 2003 (unless extended by the Company as provided in the Prospectus), your completed documents must be received by the trustee no later than the close of business on , 2003, seven days prior to the expiration date of the Rights Offering. If you are sending your completed instructions to the trustee by mail, please allow sufficient time for mail delays. If you fail to instruct the trustee to either sell or exercise your Rights on or before , 2003, the trustee will attempt to sell your Rights on your behalf and deposit the net proceeds of such sale in an account for your benefit in the Stable Value Fund (an existing investment election under the Plan). The trustee's obligation to sell Rights is subject to its ability to find buyers for the Rights. The Rights are a new issue of securities with no established trading market and we can give no assurance that a market for the Rights will develop or, if a market does develop, as to how long it will continue. Therefore, we cannot assure you that the trustee will be able to sell any of your Rights on your behalf. Q: When is the absolute last date for me to allocate funds to the Stable Value Fund in order to acquire the shares of Class A common stock I want to purchase under the Rights that have been allocated to my 401(k) account? A: If you elect to exercise some or all of your Rights, you must have sufficient funds in an account created by you in the Stable Value Fund (an existing investment election under the Plan) on , 2003 in order to satisfy the subscription price payable by you upon exercise of your Rights. On , 2003, the trustee will remove these funds from your Stable Value Fund account and use such funds to participate on your behalf in the Rights Offering. Q: What if I do not have sufficient funds in my Stable Value Fund account? A: If you do not have sufficient funds to exercise all of your subscription rights in accordance with your election, the Rights will be exercised to the maximum extent possible with the amount you have invested in your Stable Value Fund account, and the trustee will attempt to sell for your account any remaining Rights that are not exercised because of insufficient funds. 4
Q: What if the per share public trading market price of the Class A common stock declines during the period after I submit my 401(k) Plan Participant Election Form to the trustee and before the time that the trustee exercises the Rights and purchases Class A common stock on my behalf? A: Once you send to the trustee the 401(k) Plan Participant Election Form, you may not revoke your exercise instructions, unless the Company subsequently amends the terms of the Rights Offering. If you elect to exercise your Rights, you should be aware that the market value of our Class A common stock may go up or down during the period after you submit your 401(k) Plan Participant Election Form to the trustee and before the time that Class A common stock is purchased under your Rights and allocated to your account under the 401(k) plan. See the section of the Prospectus captioned "Risk factors -- You may not revoke your subscription exercise and could be committed to buying shares above the prevailing market price." However, notwithstanding instructions from participants of the Plan to exercise their Rights, the trustee will not exercise the Rights if, on , 2003, the per share public trading price of the Class A common stock is less than the per share subscription price. The trustee may attempt, instead, to sell the Rights if an active trading market is maintained; however, if the per share subscription price exceeds the per share public trading price, it is likely that the Rights will have no value. The trustee may also, from , 2003 through the expiration of the Rights Offering, exercise the Rights if the per share public trading price increases above the per share subscription price. Q: If I exercise my Over-Subscription Privilege but there are insufficient shares to honor my request (in part or in full), what happens to the amount taken from my account to pay that portion of the subscription price? A: It will be returned to your Stable Value Fund account under the Plan, without interest or deduction. Q: If my Rights are sold on my behalf by the trustee, when will I received the proceeds from the sale? A: If the trustee is able to sell Rights on your behalf, the proceeds of the sale will be deposited in your Stable Value Fund Account as promptly as practicable after the sale. If you have instructed the trustee to sell your Rights, you should check the balance of your Stable Value Fund Account balance regularly on the Plan's website (www.ibenefitscenter.com) or by contacting the trustee at (800) 685-6415 to confirm whether you have received the proceeds from a sale of all or a portion of your Rights. If you do not currently invest in the Stable Value Fund and the trustee receives proceeds from a sale of Rights on your behalf, the trustee will create such an account for you. Q: What if no trading market for the Rights can be maintained? A: The Rights are a new issue of securities with no established trading market and we can give no assurance that a market for the Rights will develop or, if a market does develop, as to how long it will continue. Therefore, we cannot assure you that the trustee will be able to sell any of your Rights on your behalf. If you have instructed the trustee to sell your Rights and your Rights cannot be sold, you will be entitled to direct the trustee to exercise your Rights instead, although any such direction still must be received by the trustee by the close of business on , 2003, seven days prior to the expiration date of the Rights Offering. As explained above, however, it is possible that the per share subscription price will exceed the per share public trading price of the Class A common stock (which may be one reason why there would be no trading market for the Rights). If the Rights cannot be sold and either (i) your instructions to exercise the Rights are not timely received by the trustee, or (ii) you never provided instructions in the first place, or (iii) the per share subscription price exceeds the per share public trading price of the Class A common stock (in which case, as explained above, the trustee will not exercise the Rights), then the Rights will expire and will have no further value. 5
EXHIBIT 99.10 REVLON EMPLOYEES' SAVINGS, INVESTMENT AND PROFIT SHARING PLAN Subscription Rights to Purchase Revlon, Inc. Class A Common Stock This notice relates to the Revlon Employees' Savings, Investment and Profit Sharing Plan (the Plan). As you probably know by now, the Company has commenced a stock rights offering as part of a transaction in which the Company has distributed, to each holder of its Class A and Class B common stock on [DATE], one right per shares (a Right) to purchase additional shares of Class A Common Stock. Because you held Class A common stock in your account under the Plan on [DATE], your Plan account now holds Rights as well. You should have received a Prospectus that describes the Rights in detail. This notice is designed to give you some of the same information from that Prospectus in a convenient way. However, it is not intended as a substitute for the information contained in the Prospectus. You should carefully read the Prospectus (together with any documents incorporated into the Prospectus by reference). If you did not receive a Prospectus, please contact the information agent for the Rights offering, D.F. King & Co., Inc., at (800) 949-2583. The Rights are marketable securities that allow the holder to purchase a specified stock (Revlon Class A common stock) at a specified price ([$ XX] per share) for a specified period of time (the exercise period). The exercise period for the Rights began on [DATE], 2003 and will expire at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on [DATE], 2003, unless we extend it. Because of the need to process exercise requests made under the Plan, you must give notice of your desire to exercise or sell Rights allocated to your account not later than [DATE], 2003, which is seven days before the expiration of the exercise period. Any Right that you do not elect to exercise or sell before such time will be sold by the Plan's trustee on your behalf (provided that a trading market for the Rights is maintained at that time). Each Right can be exercised to purchase one share of Revlon Class A common stock at an exercise price of [$XX] per share. Notwithstanding your instructions, the Rights will not be exercised where the per share exercise price exceeds the per share trading price of Revlon Class A common stock at the time for exercise (in which case an attempt will be made to sell the Rights instead, although the Rights will likely have no value in such a case). Here is some information about the Rights that may be of interest to you: o You may be able to realize value from the Rights in your Plan account by either exercising or, if a market for them is maintained, trading (selling) them. a) Exercise At any time on or before [DATE], 2003, you may give notice to the trustee of your desire to exercise some or all of your Rights. The trustee will use funds from your Stable Value Fund account to purchase shares on [DATE], 2003, and the shares purchased for you will be allocated to your account as soon as practicable after that date. Rights like these are usually exercised when the market price of the stock a person is purchasing (Revlon Class A common stock) is more than the exercise price specified by the Right. For example, if Revlon Class A common stock is trading for $3.00 per share when the trustee exercises your rights and you exercise Rights to buy ten shares of Class A common stock, you would have a gain of [$XX]. Here is the calculation of this example:
Market value of common stock (10 shares x $3.00) = $30.00 minus Exercise price to acquire the common stock (10 shares x [$XX]) = [$XX] equals Gain upon exercise ($30.00 minus [$XX]) = [$XX] Of course, the amount of gain that you ultimately realize will depend on the trading value of the stock if and when you ultimately sell it. b) Trade The Rights in your Plan account may be sold by returning the appropriate election form to the trustee of the Plan for its receipt at any time on or before [DATE]. Rights such as these are often sold if the holder does not want to acquire and hold additional shares of the stock (Revlon Class A common stock) that can be purchased. o The Rights are quoted on the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker symbol REV.RT. New York Stock Exchange quotes -- including current price quotes, last-sale prices and volume information -- are widely available on various Internet web sites, including the website maintained by the New York Stock Exchange (www.nyse.com). o The market value of the Rights may fluctuate (increase and decrease) as the market fluctuates, and there may even cease to be a market for the Rights if there is insufficient investor interest. c) General o The market price of Revlon Class A common stock may fluctuate between the time you give your instruction to exercise a Right and the time the Right is exercised. Depending on the extent of this price fluctuation, you may not end up purchasing stock under the Rights at a discount to market value. o If you do not exercise or sell your rights by [DATE], 2003, they will be sold on your behalf and your account will be credited with any net sale proceeds (or, if no market for the Rights is maintained after that time and before the end of the exercise period, they will expire without value). o Putnam Fiduciary Trust Company, as the Plan's trustee, will assist you in the exercise or sale of the Rights in your Plan account. o AN INVESTMENT IN OUR CLASS A COMMON STOCK INVOLVES RISKS.
