started a watch list for this one when it was around bottom ($1.03) and accidentally deleted my own thread lol.... it made a quicker move this time and closed on friday at $1.21....revlon is a very old and established cosmetic company that i know pretty well (played independent make-up artist at stores that carried line in my area a number of years ago) ... they have made some real bad choices and have much debt that has brought em down but are allegedly in process of turning things around... so some may wanna keep in on radar b/c you can make money on this stock and if/when they get things together they will probably move back up in the industry...

Cosmetics Makers' Shares Mixed After Positive
NEW YORK (AP) -- Cosmetics makers' shares were mixed on Friday, a day after Elizabeth Arden reported positive fourth-quarter results.
After the market closed on Thursday, Elizabeth Arden said it swung to a quarterly profit of 33 cents per share, high above the 18 cents per share analysts were expecting. Sales grew 28 percent.
"A solid top-line drove the outperformance as the company continues to see strong takeaway internationally along with increased share and distribution in the U.S. mass and club channels," wrote SunTrust Robinson Humphrey analyst William Chappell, who rates Estee Lauder's stock "Buy."
Shares jumped $4.10, or 20.9 percent, to close at $23.71.
