“Lipstick does not have a size.” And the new face of Revlon, Ashley Graham, is absolutely right!
The mega model is one of the first plus-size models to land a major beauty contract in the U.S.,. But Graham has been kicking down doors in the industry for a while as the first curvy model to be featured in Sports Illustrated’s 2015 Swimsuit issue in an ad for SwimsuitsforAll and becoming the cover girl of the iconic issue the year after, not to mention strutting the runway in Paris for H&M, as well as creating her own designs for SwimsuitsforAll, Nordstrom, and even DressBarn. But even with all of that under her belt, the beauty counter has been a rare place to find a plus-size model. In fact, according to The Cut, the last curve model to serve as the face of a beauty brand was Robyn Lawley, who had a two-year contract with Pantene in Australia.
