Ep. 120: Reprogramming Our Relationship with Beauty with Jessica DeFino

Off the Record

If you find yourself as the main subject of one of Jessica DeFino’s journalistic endeavors, you’ve either done something incredibly right—or you’re about to get served up a hot dish of Here’s What’s Up. Her seasoned nose can sniff out voids, WTFs, and missed opportunities like nobody else in the writing world. She gives credit where credit is due, and she’s ferociously fair about telling the whole story. She’s a beauty journalist covering supportable, sustainable skincare through the lens of science and spirituality. She’s dipped her toes into a bit of everything, from songwriting, to ghostwriting Chloe Kardashian’s sex column, to editing a book on ancient symbology and copywriting for fashion labels. These days, she prefers to stick to her true loves: Natural skincare and holistic health—with a dash of woo-woo wellness.
