Hailey Bieber is here! As Rhode touches down in Canada, we sit down with the 26-year-old skincare founder alongside Rhode CEO Melanie Bender to chat about the power of paring down, women-supporting-women, and what they’re glazing next. (Oh yes, there's a scoop on new products they’re working on!) 

Then, tune in as Hailey drops her exact skincare routine, including her fave sunscreen and skincare tool. We get the goods on what Hailey Bieber nail vibe she’s wearing to Coachella, the style staples she’ll be wearing all summer and we get up close and personal in a fun game of rapid fire. Stay tuned to the end as Hailey reveals her secrets to self-care, her ultimate safe space, what she orders from Postmates and the one thing nobody knows about her…

Plus, you’ll discover in this episode:

• Hailey’s best beauty hack that she learned from her Mom (a jet-setting trick that Justin uses now, too!)

• How Hailey’s approach to beauty has changed over the years

• Inside details on Hailey’s fashion aesthetic, including an “Elsa” red carpet moment gone wrong

• Her latest belly laugh (turns out they are just like us, lol) along with the current song that always gets Hailey on the dance floor

• How Rhode is supporting women in education and careers in Canada through Coralus.world and why that’s important to Melanie and Hailey

Happy Women’s Day, everyone! This week we’re putting a lens on beauty standards, gaining some much needed perspective and discussing how rising pressures from celebrities, social media and real life biases are shaping our experiences.

Joining us are two fellow beauty journalists from across the pond. Charisse Kenion is the host of BeautyMe podcast. She’s also a beauty and fashion writer, editor and photographer who’s interviewed everyone from Diane Von Furstenberg to Dolce & Gabbana. (Be sure to follow Charisse on TikTok for epic 90s era fashion moments!)

We’re also welcoming Conde Nast Traveller Beauty Director, Anita Bhagwandas. Anita is an award-winning journalist, broadcaster and she’s the beauty columnist for The Guardian. Her new book, “Ugly: Giving Us Back Our Beauty Standards” uncovers where beauty standards started, why they've been perpetuated and she unmasks the structures that continue to support them. 

This Week We Discuss:

• Whoopi vs. Joan, Child-free Chelsea and Viola the Brave: The women who are living rent-free in our head at the moment

• Madonna-Gate: Does the limit exist when it comes to celeb plastic surgery or should we all stop judging?

• How artificial intelligence is shaping our views around beauty

• Are “tweakments” warping our authentic sense of selves? 

• Where we are with diversity and body positivity in the beauty biz - how far have we come, really?
