As an office full of strong and independent women, and feminist men, working in the beauty industry, at Revolution Beauty we want to celebrate iconic women who have inspired us with their beliefs and their trailblazing makeup looks that defined a generation and beyond. We believe makeup can make you feel powerful. Use your power! Meet some of our Revolutionary heroes…

Maria’s pick

“Not only an award-winning actress, Audrey Hepburn devoted most of her later life to charity work with UNICEF. And she had some of the most iconic brows of all time!” – Maria Ridgway, Content Assistant.

Az’s pick

“Marilyn Monroe, an award-winning actress and an ally of the black community, not to mention her body positive message! I love her combo of a statement red lip and glowing skin!” – Az Lambert, Content and Social Editor

Charlotte’s pick

“Twiggy was a big part of the revolutionary Swinging Sixties – which went hand-in-hand with Second Wave feminism. She was the queen of eyeliner and mini skirts – just iconic!” – Charlotte Jones, Content Editor

Simran’s pick

“Grace Jones has never shied away from a statement beauty look. Her pink and purple eyeshadow and blusher blend is ICONIC, especially in that video where she shuts down the sexist reporter” – Simran Bhalla, Content Assistant

Shahira’s pick

“Diana Ross overcame extreme racism to form one of the most iconic girl groups of all time – The Supremes. With her big smokey eyes, high cheekbones and nude lips – Ross’s look was the epitome of 60s chic. And she’s still rockin’ it today, 60 years on, yes Queen!” – Shahira Allen, Social and Content Assistant.
