Item 8.01.  Other Events.

         On August 10, 2005, Revlon, Inc. issued a press release announcing
that its wholly-owned subsidiary, Revlon Consumer Products Corporation, intends
to privately place with qualified institutional investors approximately $75
million in aggregate principal amount of senior notes due 2011. The private
placement is expected to be consummated in August 2005, subject to market and
other customary conditions.

         The net proceeds from the private placement are expected to be used
(i) to help fund the Company's previously announced strategic growth
initiatives and for general corporate purposes, and (ii) to pay fees and
expenses incurred in connection with the private placement.

         There can be no assurances that any such private placement will be
consummated.

         A copy of the press release is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1 and is
incorporated by reference herein.
