MANILA, Philippines - Being both busy and beautiful takes discipline and work. Beauty queen-turned-actress Marina Benipayo (photo) shares her beauty regimen.
“I maintain basic hygiene and skin-care practices, which can, in any way, help me maintain my skin and body,” Marina says. “Regular exercise and a balanced diet are always the best way to keep healthy.”
Models need to wear make-up on the job and that’s a fact. So skincare takes center stage, Marina notes. “The times when I have to wear make-up, cleansing and maintaining good skin can be a challenge. So, after cleansing, I apply Up&Up to make sure my skin recovers well.”
While many of the uninitiated may think that a “party-harder” lifestyle is part of a model’s daily bread, Benipayo swears by getting enough sleep and relaxation: “I also make sure I get some rest in between schedules. Although, I also do the housework, I try my best to manage my time so I won’t feel too tired. It also helps that I see what good I can get from anything I do, for me to feel less tired.”
Marina also shares her Up&Up experience. “It definitely felt like it was starting to treat my face to an avalanche of vitamins to instantly improve it. By the second week, I noticed my face was clearer and younger-looking.”
