Leslie Blodgett: Pretty Good Advice

Join us in The BreakLine Arena as we share the fascinating journey of Leslie Blodgett, Wall Street Journal best-selling author of the book Pretty Good Advice, as well as the creator and former CEO of massively successful cosmetic company, bareMinerals.

Called the “Queen of Beauty” and the most influential singular woman to impact the beauty industry by the New York Times, you’ve never met anyone like Leslie Blodgett. Leslie pioneered the original power of community (before the idea of social media existed)—reinventing how beauty was sold.

Her warmth, empathy and authentic bond with her global community of fans, along with her unconventional approach, set a new standard that continues to shape the beauty business today. In 2006, Leslie took the company public in one of the largest cosmetic IPOs of the decade, and in 2010, the company was acquired for $1.8 billion.

In this conversation, Leslie shares the story of her path to success as well as the wisdom and insights her journey continues to teach her along the way.
