About the owner: Revlon
Revlon is a privately held company headquartered in New York, United States, founded in 1932. Brandtree records 11 brands under its control.
Revlon Consumer Products LLC is the New York beauty company that makes and markets color cosmetics, hair color and care, skincare, men's grooming, antiperspirant deodorants and fragrances. Its corporate site says Charles and Joseph Revson and Charles Lachman founded Revlon in 1932 and that it sells a portfolio of 15+ brands in more than 150 countries. Its own history page says it went public in 1996; the company is no longer a listed issuer, and the corporate site does not state who owns it today, so no shareholder is recorded here. Its brand portfolio was assembled by acquisition: Mitchum (1970), the Colomer Group brands (2013), Cutex and Elizabeth Arden (2016). Juicy Couture is listed on its brands page as a lifestyle brand, but the page does not say whether it is owned or licensed, so it is left out.
🇺🇸 CND and other American brands
Brandtree records a controlling owner for 2,399 brands that began in the United States. 461 of them (19%) are now controlled by a company headquartered in another country; CND is not one of them.
