Background
Revlon's Israel record is one of long-standing corporate presence with no documented philanthropy or political support attached to it. From at least 2001 until its last annual report, Revlon disclosed Israeli subsidiaries — the marketing company Revlon (Israel) Limited and the packaging companies YAE Artistic Packings Industry Ltd. and YAE Press 2000 (1987) Ltd. — and the final Israel-related item in its SEC record is accounting work on the final tax returns of the two YAE companies, approved for fiscal 2023 after the Chapter 11 filing of June 2022 and the company's emergence from bankruptcy in May 2023. Revlon is no longer an SEC reporting company; its shares were cancelled in the restructuring and ownership passed to former creditors. In Israel today the brand is carried by the independent importer S. Schestowitz Ltd. This pass found no Revlon donation, in-kind aid, sponsorship, corporate statement on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, or political contribution to Israeli causes; FEC records show no Revlon corporate PAC, and the two small Revlon-named foundations registered in Edison, New Jersey report minimal activity in their most recent available filings with no Israel-linked grantees surfacing. Absence of a record means nothing was found, not that nothing exists.

Timeline of documented support
Documented support
| Type | Date | Amount | Recipient | Sources |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Operations in Israel | 2021 | — | Israeli subsidiaries — Revlon (Israel) Limited, YAE Artistic Packings Industry Ltd. and YAE Press 2000 (1987) Ltd. Revlon held Israeli corporate entities for at least two decades. Its subsidiaries exhibit filed with the SEC as of 31 December 2021 lists three: Revlon (Israel) Limited among the foreign subsidiaries, plus the two packaging companies YAE Artistic Packings Industry Ltd. and YAE Press 2000 (1987) Ltd. The same Israeli presence appears in earlier exhibits — the FY2016 subsidiaries list also names Revlon (Israel) Limited — and EDGAR full-text search returns 'Israel' in every Revlon Exhibit 21.1 filed from 2001 through 2022. These are corporate structures disclosed in routine filings, not donations or contributions. | |
| Operations in Israel | 2023 | — | Israeli subsidiaries being wound up — YAE Artistic Packings Industry Ltd. and YAE Press 2000 (1987) Ltd. Revlon's last SEC filing season records the closing-down of part of its Israeli structure. An exhibit to the FY2022 annual report lists the non-audit services approved for fiscal 2023, including a $13,500 engagement described as 'Israel Tax Compliance – Assistance with the preparation and filing of the final corporate income tax return for IL11-YAE Artistic Packings Industry Ltd. and IL12-YAE Press 2000 (1987) Ltd.' Revlon had filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy in June 2022 and emerged in May 2023, after which it stopped reporting to the SEC. The item is disclosed as accounting work on a final tax return; it is not a donation, and the filing does not say what became of Revlon (Israel) Limited itself. | |
| Operations in Israel | 2026 | — | Israeli market — S. Schestowitz Ltd. (importer) Revlon cosmetics continue to be sold in Israel through S. Schestowitz Ltd., an independent, family-owned Israeli importer, which lists Revlon on its brand pages and names it in its company profile among the cosmetics and make-up lines it represents. Schestowitz is not a Revlon subsidiary; it is a third-party importer, and its commercial decisions are its own. No Revlon-branded manufacturing in Israel is documented today. |
