Anita Rose Gomez, Zambales
Anita’s face is mesmerizing. It especially illuminates with her pretty in pink makeup and golden eyeshadow that highlights her features. Everything is expertly blended, and the long, fluttery lashes are the perfect finishing touch that made her eyes look captivating and her gaze powerful.
Chelsea Manalo, Bulacan
Chelsea steals the show with a monochromatic burgundy look. Instead of going for the usual pink and coral blush, she instead chose a purple hue that feels classic with an unexpected twist and paired with a subtle smokey eye. To balance it out, she wore a high updo, making her winning smile the focal point of the look.
Ahtisa Manalo, Quezon Province
The stage was ablaze with Ahtisa Manalo’s walk in her evening gown, but the scene-stealer was her glam. The nation saw her adopt a palette that matches her hair and makeup to her luminous and sparkling red Michael Cinco dress—a change that the audience welcomed with cheers. With the perfect undone and voluptuous waves and the dark on dark effect of her smokey eye and bold lip, Ahtisa was turning heads on the Miss Universe stage.
