Almay Celebrates the True Spirit of American Beauty

Almay announced its collaboration with the USO, the only military non-profit organization that has supported our troops and families for more than 70 years. Almay will Honor the women of the U.S. military and our veterans, and focus on our troops as they transition from service back to their communities. Committing to this cause is a key pillar in the brand's Simply American campaign, celebrating the spirit of American beauty from the inside and out - pure, genuine, fresh and glowing with confidence and pride - the ultimate representation of American beauty.

"American ingenuity has always been at the heart of Almay and the brand is proud of its American heritage," said Revlon President and Chief Executive Officer Lorenzo Delpani. "In joining forces with the USO, we are excited to shine a light on the face of American beauty by celebrating women of the U.S. military as well as encouraging consumers to support them."

The multifaceted campaign will reach consumers across all touch points, including an interactive hub on www.Almay.com. Using the hashtag #SimplyAmerican, the brand is soliciting photos depicting Simply American moments. In addition to the brand's $250,000 contribution to the USO, Almay will donate one dollar, up to $10,000, for every "like" or share on social media. Consumers will also have opportunity to donate online at www.uso.org.

"The USO is the only organization that supports troops and military families through every phase of their service," said USO Vice President of Corporate Alliances Christy Hartsell. "In continuation of our longstanding mission, the USO is excited to highlight and Honor the spirit that drives women to serve our country through the Almay Simply American campaign."

This summer, Almay is embarking on the ultimate road trip, creating a custom, Simply American experience that will stop at venues such as state fairs and other festivals. Almay will offer make up touch ups and celebrate the people, places and occasions that best exemplify the American spirit, including service women, veterans, military wives and their families. Both the USO initiative and bus tour will be supported through custom programming on ABC TV, with exclusive check-ins airing on "Good Morning America" (Weekdays 7-9AM e|c|p) and "The View" (Weekdays 11AM e|10AM c|p).
