EP273. How to grow a beauty brand with purpose – and lead with integrity
How do you turn farm waste into liquid gold and build a cult beauty brand in the process? Well, Allison Taylor from Le Prunier did just that. Along with her sisters, Allison took a forgotten byproduct from their fourth-generation, 100-year-old plum farm and turned it into a skincare phenomenon that’s gone viral – while staying completely self-funded. In a world obsessed with growing fast and big, Le Prunier chose slow growth, intention and innovation, proving that less can truly be more. In this week's episode of Green Beauty Conversations, Allison returns to the podcast to tell the remarkable story behind Le Prunier. Tune in now!
