Rio Viera-Newton On Breakouts, Breakups, and Breakdowns

It’s impossible to talk about the world of beauty writing without mentioning Rio Viera-Newton. While it may seem the stuff of NYC legend, a viral Google Doc in 2017 outlining her skincare regimen, and passed among friends, catapulted her to a career as a beauty columnist for New York Magazine. This week, she and Jade discuss the link between acne and depression, wrestling with disordered eating, the pain of friendship breakups and how to save yourself from a lifetime of people-pleasing. They also dive into Rio’s very unique career journey, the self-doubt and self-realizations that come with writing a book, and the weary load borne by those with a hyphen in their last name.  To get a deeper look into Rio’s life (including her fabulous cooking stories on IG), and to see her beautiful new toothy smile, follow her on Instagram at: https://www.instagram.com/riovn/ Download this episode of Tell Me About It with Jade Iovine wherever you get your podcasts!
