In the internet, people write horrid comments when they notice a woman wearing too much makeup.

This shaming happens even at a time the beauty industry is thriving and makeup is fast becoming a hot commodity.

Gabbi shared to GMANetwork.com that there is no need to feel embarrassed about your love for beauty products even when there are shamers on social media.

What's important is it keeps you happy. She said, “If you feel comfortable with makeup on, then go for it!”

The Kapuso Global Endorser suggests not to listen to negative remarks.

“Don't be afraid kung sabihin man nila na ang arte mo nagmi-makeup ka. So what?”

Gabbi added that there is no need to hide your passion especially if it's the only thing that gives you confidence.

“It's not a crime to put on makeup and it's not being maarte. It's just you're comfortable with it. It's just being confident.”
