By Dianne Mariano

Sparkle stars and former Return To Paradise lead actors Derrick Monasterio and Elle Villanueva stressed the importance of having a skincare routine as artists.

In an interview with GMANetwork.com at the sidelines of Dermplus Moisturizing Sunscreen where both stars are signed up as its newest endorsers, Elle and Derrick shared that having a skincare regimen is important to them due to their line of work in the showbiz industry.

“Very much, especially palagi kaming nagpupuyat. Our skin would lose collagen and nakakatanda lang talaga magpuyat. And whenever may sun exposure everyday sa taping, that's also bad. So, importante ang sunscreen sa amin and skin care,” the Kapuso actress said.

The Sparkle hunk added, “Very important kasi siyempre bread and butter namin 'yung face namin and this is our individuality, 'yung mukha namin. And this is what sets us apart from other people, other actors. It's important to have youthful, radiant, [and] glowing skin so [we] can be an inspiration to them [people].”

The former on-screen partners also gave some helpful tips on how to achieve healthy skin. According to Derrick and Elle, water is a basic yet important element in taking care of the skin.

“Drink lots of water, at max four liters. And since we're kind of aging, drink also collagen. To protect your skin from the sun, wear sunscreen at all times kahit nasa loob ka ng bahay,” Elle said.

The 27-year-old actor also mentioned not letting the sweat dry on the face as it may cause pimples.
