At L+A, we’ve always believed this industry is more than skin deep — it’s about people, relationships, and the incredible community we build together. Today, we’re reaching out with heavy hearts and a hopeful spirit to ask for your help for one of our own.
Many of you know Kelli Anderson, the force behind California Skincare Supply. Kelli isn’t just a respected leader in our industry — she’s truly one of the kindest people you’ll ever meet. Barry has had the privilege of knowing Kelli for over a decade, working closely with California Skincare Supply as a marketing consultant. CSS has also been a valued sponsor and partner on L+A for years, supporting countless educational initiatives that have helped elevate our entire community.
But today, Kelli needs us.
Kelli has recently been diagnosed with a rare and aggressive form of sarcoma known as MPNST (Malignant Peripheral Nerve Sheath Tumor), Triton Tumor. This devastating diagnosis means she’s facing a long road of surgeries, chemotherapy, radiation, and highly specialized care — much of which isn’t fully covered by insurance.
On top of that, Kelli will need to leave her home and community to establish a second residence for at least five months to receive treatment for this aggressive cancer — the second-rarest form of sarcoma. As you can imagine, the financial burden of medical bills, travel, housing, and daily living expenses is immense.
But if there’s one thing we know, it’s that families — and the L+A Family is no exception — come together in times of need.
A Little About Kelli
Kelli is a devoted mother to two beautiful daughters and has been married to her incredible husband for 35 years. She’s spent her life pouring into her family, her community, and this industry. Her passion is even a family affair, as she runs her business alongside her daughter, serving licensed estheticians for over three decades.
