“Mahilig talaga akong mag-makeup,” she revealed in a recent press conference. “Simula nu’ng nag-artista ako, pinag-aralan ko talaga siya. Lalo na kapag mine-makeupan ako ng mga makeup artist, nag-oobserve ako and from there, kapag hindi ko alam, nagpapaturo ako.” This only proves that the star is a true beauty girl for life—the exact reason as to why she is the perfect choice as the first-ever Filipino ambassador of KIKO Milano.
On her new role
Marian Rivera has made a name for herself as a widely-acclaimed actress for her roles in MariMar, Darna, and Dyesebel. Now, the star takes on a new role as the ambassador of KIKO Milano. “Actually, ‘yung mga makeup artist na nakakatrabaho ko, kahit sila naniniwala sa KIKO Milano and ginagamit nila sa akin,” she confessed. “Kaya nu’ng nalaman nila na i-eendorse ko ‘yung KIKO Milano, tuwang tuwa sila kasi sabi nila, ‘Finally, ‘yung ginagamit natin, i-eendorse mo na.”
In a recent media press conference, Marian evoked a barbiecore appeal in her elegant ensemble. As for the glam? Steven Doloso’s play on a rosy sunset motif. The celebrity makeup artist opted for a shimmered texture to dress the actress’ lids. Meanwhile, bright pink hues were placed on her cheeks to encapsulate the natural flush appeal. The star’s lips are also worth the attention. Doloso specifically used the brand’s 3D Hydra Lipgloss to achieve the high-shine yet hydrated lip look.
On the one beauty advice she wants to pass on to her daughter
Self-care is at the heart of the actress’ beauty advice for her daughter. “Kailangan mong alagaan ‘yung sarili mo,” she shared. “Kailangan mag-moisturizer ka, mag-primer ka. Siguro mas maganda na may skincare routine ka muna before you put on makeup. And then after, ‘pag tapos na ‘yung work mo, make sure na remove your makeup para maka-rest ‘yung skin mo.”
On her top picks
The conversation wouldn’t be complete without knowing the star’s top beauty product picks. KIKO Milano’s Maxi Mod Waterproof Mascara is a non-negotiable in her list. It’s the brand’s best-selling formula that defines and volumizes the lashes without the smudge. Second on her list is the Unlimited Blush 02, a velvety and ultra-pigmented entry that brings a gorgeous wash of color to the face. Lastly, the 3D Hydra Lipgloss, the brand’s most-loved lip product that leaves a high-shine factor and the right tint of hue, is the product that completes her top three KIKO Milano faves.
