Jean Godfrey-June has been called one of the most influential voices in beauty journalism — and for good reason. From her early days at Elle and Lucky to her current role as Beauty Director at Goop, Jean has spent her career peeling back the glossy layers of the beauty industry with wit, candor, and a sharp eye for truth.
In this episode of Let’s Face It, Dr. Hannah Vargas, facial plastic surgeon, and her co-host Amy Hodes sit down with Jean to explore the timeless allure of beauty — from miracle serums to surgical transformations. Together, they discuss Jean’s cult-favorite memoir Free Gift With Purchase, the evolution of beauty culture, the tension between “natural” and “done,” and what it really means to have that elusive X factor.
It’s a conversation that bridges products, procedures, and the very personal reasons we all pursue beauty.
