Episode 154: All About Skincare Culture...Diet Culture's Face-Focused Twin with Jessica DeFino

The Yours Chewly Podcast

Dear Listener, In this episode, I'm joined by the incredible Jessica DeFino for a conversation about the many parallels between skincare culture and diet culture. Jessica also explains what healthy skin can look like, how it functions, and how we can begin to reevaluate our relationships with skincare and beauty products. Jessica is a pro-skin/anti-product beauty reporter whose work focuses on dismantling beauty standards, debunking marketing myths, and exploring how beauty culture impacts people — physically, psychologically, and psychospiritually. You can find her articles in The New York Times, Vogue, WWD, Teen Vogue, Harper’s BAZAAR, Allure, New York Magazine’s The Cut, and more. She also writes the weekly beauty newsletter: The Unpublishable, as seen in New York Magazine and the UK Sunday Times.
