<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>Called the "Queen of Beauty" and the most influential lone woman to impact the beauty industry since Estee Lauder by the New York Times, Leslie Blodgett's story is anything but ordinary. As the CEO of BareMinerals, she reinvented how beauty was sold by tapping into the power of community before the idea of social media existed. In 2006, Blodgett 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. Pretty Good Advice is her next chapter. This refreshing book features 97 candid and entertaining insights on business, life, and beauty. Personal and often surprising, Blodgett dishes on leading with humour, why wearing blush and reading obituaries are two of the most optimistic things you can do, and why you owe it to your co-workers not to be boring. Pretty Good Advice is full of frank, actionable advice to help light a fire under you.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b>Straight talk and mild rants from one of beauty's biggest success stories</b> <p/> Called the "Queen of Beauty" and the most influential lone woman to impact the beauty industry since Estée Lauder by the <i>New York Times</i>, Leslie Blodgett's story is anything but ordinary.
