    NEW YORK, Nov. 20 /PRNewswire/ -- Revlon announced today that two time
Oscar-nominated actress Julianne Moore has joined the company's exclusive
group of spokespeople.  Moore, star of the highly acclaimed films "Hannibal,"
"Boogie Nights" and "The Big Lebowski," will appear in advertising campaigns
for the company and will participate in philanthropic efforts dedicated
towards the fight against women's cancers.
    Moore will appear in various advertising campaigns for the Revlon brand,
with the first television commercial scheduled to break nationally in January
2002.  In addition, Revlon and Moore have committed to work together towards a
common goal -- the fight against breast and ovarian cancers.  Moore will
participate in select corporate and philanthropic events for the company.
    "Julianne is the perfect example of today's modern woman," said Revlon CEO
and President Jeff Nugent.  "As a beautiful, respected actress and dedicated
mother, Julianne balances her hectic schedule with grace and ease.  She knows
what's important in life and pursues it with confidence and integrity.  We're
thrilled to have such a remarkable woman representing the company," Nugent
said.
    Moore most recently starred in the blockbuster hit "Hannibal," opposite
Anthony Hopkins and Gary Oldham.  Her next role will be in the highly
anticipated Miramax film, "The Shipping News" co-starring Kevin Spacey, Judi
Dench and Cate Blanchett.  The film is scheduled to be released in December
2001.
    "I'm very excited to be working with a well-respected company like
Revlon," said Julianne Moore.  "I have always admired their dedication to
women's health issues and their long-standing position as a truly iconic
American beauty company.  I am honored to be a part of the great work that
they do."
    After earning her B.F.A. from Boston University for the Performing Arts,
Moore starred in a number of off-Broadway productions and eventually made her
way to Hollywood.  In addition to her starring roles in "Hannibal," "Boogie
Nights" and "The Big Lebowski," Moore has appeared in such popular movies as
"The Lost World," "Magnolia," "The End Of The Affair" and "An Ideal Husband."
