Friends! Today we are speaking to an incredible woman and the founder of the luxury skincare line Klur.co, Lesley Thornton.  Lesley takes us on her journey of growing up in Compton, shares with us the lengths her mother went through to ensure that she had an incredible education nearly two hours away in Beverly Hills while seeing the different opportunities that might be possible for her beyond what she could imagine.  Lesley isn’t only a skincare brand founder, she is also an esthetician, a humanitarian, and embeds her activist roots deep within the mission of KLUR.  KLUR has been featured in WWD, Vogue, Elle, Harpers Bazaar, The Zoe Report, Nylon, Allure, Byrdie, and The Second Life Podcast.  To learn more about Lesley, visit Klur.Co and follow them on Instagram @Klur.Co Thanks to today’s Sponsor, Lolavie!
