Sparkle ladies Ysabel Ortega, Sofia Pablo, and Shaira Diaz radiated beauty at the launch of the new beauty and wellness brand called Belle Dolls. Together with Miguel Tanfelix, they were introduced as its first celebrity endorsers in an event held at the Novotel Hotel in Quezon City on Wednesday, October 16.

During the question-and-answer segment of the program, they were asked what makes them beautiful inside and out.

Instead of discussing the makeup they use, the clothes they wear, or the food they eat, the Kapuso ladies highlighted moments that give them the feeling of being beautiful.

Unang Hirit host Shaira said words of affirmation from her fiancé, Ea Guzman, make her feel beautiful.

“Like, 'Uy, ang pretty naman niya today.' Yung mga simpleng papuri ng fiancé ko sa akin, talagang I truly feel beautiful inside and out. Yung simpleng kakamustahin ka, papadalhan ka ng pagkain, ang ganda lang sa pakiramdam.

“Simpleng tao lang ako, hindi ako nag-e-expect ng masyadong bonggang materyal na bagay. Just words from my loved ones, yun lang para sa akin, sapat na.”

On the other hand, Ysabel said, “Ako, I feel beautiful inside and out when I actually feel good. Alam mo yung pagkagising ko, iba yung aura ko sa araw na yun, you feel healthy and you feel good.”

She also echoed Shaira's statement, “Tama yung sinabi ni Ate Shaira, it's the little things talaga like, when the people around me say, 'You look beautiful. Ang ganda ng hair.' It's the little things talaga.”

Later in the program, her on-screen partner, Miguel said he finds Ysabel most beautiful when she's not wearing makeup.

“Para po sa akin, yun po ang pinakamagandang hitsura niya. Totoo po, kasi walang makeup or anything, so kita ko talaga kung ano siya,” he said while looking at Ysabel on his side.

Continuing on the topic, Sofia said, “Ako po, I feel beautiful inside and out when I am happy. Yung gigising ako 'tapos masaya ako. Then, I will look into the mirror na, 'Ang ganda ko.' Wow.”

Sofia agreed to her Sparkle sisters, saying, “Iba po kasi kapag sinasabihan ka ng mga mahal mo sa buhay.”

Belle Dolls endorsers

Meanwhile, Beautederm CEO and President Rhea Anicoche-Tan explained why she chose Miguel, Ysabel, Sofia, and Shaira as the first celebrity endorsers of her new supplement brand Belle Dolls.

“It's time na rin naman na mas bagets ang alaga ko,” she smiled. “At siyempre, tuwing kumukuha ako ng endorers, ang una ko munang tanong, 'Mabait ba 'yan? Masipag ba 'yan mag-post?' Masisipag ang mga batang ito.”

On Shaira, Tan said the TV host-actress has been using Beautederm products because her fiancé is an endorser.

“Si Shaira, kahit na si EA ang aking anak-anakan, kinukuha niya ang gamit ni EA. Siya yung tumatawag, 'Mommy, paano gamitin 'to?' So, matagal na rin siyang Beautederm baby,” she said.

Then, she expressed appreciation for Ysabel who has been very supportive of her.

“Si Ysabel naman, I love her so much. 'Tong batang 'to, I really appreciate yung lahat ng okasyon present siya. Ako naman, simpleng bagay lang, naa-appreciate ko, e,” Tan related.

Lastly, she commends Miguel and Sofia's politeness towards her.

“Si Sofia, very sweet girl. Napakagalang. Kapag may events, kahit hindi ko siya alaga, lumalapit sila talaga, sila ni Miguel. Ganun lang naman, mababaw lang naman ang kaligayahan ko,” she concluded.
