Megan Thee Stallion, 25, was announced on August 6th as the new global brand ambassador for makeup powerhouse Revlon. In her new role for the iconic beauty brand, Megan reassures all her “hotties” that she has “some hot things coming soon.” The first look at the new campaign, which features a beauty look completely done by the makeup artist extraordinaire herself, is an excellent example. And Meg isn’t just a pretty face — she’s also seriously skilled in the makeup department. The “Savage” rapper did her own makeup for the photoshoot using all Revlon products, including its ColorStay Looks Book Eye Shadow Palettes and Super Lustrous Lipstick.
Megan’s campaign will roll out this month, though things have been simmering since 2019. “When we first approached her about a partnership nearly a year ago, we were drawn to her confidence and fierce ambition as much as her power to hold nothing back,” Silvia Galfo, Revlon global brand president, said in a press release. “She loves to express herself with makeup and is a constant inspiration to her fans on living boldly. It’s that authenticity and unapologetic spirit that we admire, and we are thrilled to welcome her to the Revlon family.”
“To me, the Revlon brand stands for both beauty and female strength, and I’m excited to help define what that means to a new generation of women,” Megan said in the statement. “I’ve always set the bar high for myself with everything I do, but to now be a brand ambassador for Revlon, it feels like a new level.” Other noted levels completed by the artist include giving the world a TikTok anthem to dance to while indoors and very much alone and starring in this glorious cover art with fellow beauty enthusiast Cardi B for a surprise single that dropped last Friday.
This may be Megan’s first official foray into the beauty world, but she’s previously starred in an ad campaign for Coach and regularly poses for Rihanna’s Savage x Fenty underwear line. Past Revlon global brand ambassadors include Gal Gadot, Ashley Graham, Sofia Carson, Jessica Jung, Adwoa Aboah and Eniola Abioro.
