Filipina Actress Anne Curtis Shares Hacks on Self-Love, Beauty and Motherhood

Manila, Philippines — With a career that spans almost 26 years in showbiz, actress, host, singer and brand endorser Anne Curtis has indeed mastered the art of maintaining balance in life while looking absolutely gorgeous. While Anne totally credits her skincare regimens and makeup tricks when it comes to her breathtaking beauty, the multihyphenate star shares that looking stunning still comes from feeling beautiful and doing inner self-work, or all in all, self-love.

Self-love for me is taking the time to see where you are at in life– how you are truly feeling, how you are being from within. Self-love is about taking the time to make sure your inner being is okay, taking the time to check in yourself, taking the time to know how you are really doing,” Anne shared as she answered questions from Stylish Magazine at the press conference and behind-the-scene photo shoot of beauty brand Luxe Organix. The actress has been named as the ambassador of the brand’s line of face serums.

The star who is also now a devoted mother to almost three years old daughter Dahlia, her child with food expert Erwan Heussaff, also shared how self-love is vital in taking care of her family.

“It is about taking the time to take care of yourself, even if you are so busy or even if you are a mother, even if you are busy with your family or with work. If you are not okay and you feel like you need that extra five minutes for yourself, you make that time for yourself. In the long run, that will make you a better person, if only for yourself then for your friends and for your family,” she added.

She has indeed learned to step back and disengage from the pressures of her chosen career from time to time to prioritize motherhood. She has been known to take temporary absence from her showbiz engagements to give time to her family life. Her 17 million followers on Facebook are always hooked indeed, whether with the stars laidback mom life in Australia every now and then, or when she is her usual bubbly self as one of the hosts of the Philippines’ leading noontime TV program Showtime.

“In terms of motherhood, I would like to share especially to new mothers that they should really enjoy their moments with their baby or kids. They are young only once in their lives. Keep everything as a memory because everything happens for the first time with them once. But during the times when they are napping like maybe for three hours, incorporate your time for self-love, like maybe reading a book, watching your favoorite Netflix series, spending time with your husband and just maximizing time for yourself because if you are able to take care of yourself properly, then you can be better at taking care of your husband, child and family and give the love and happiness they would love to receive from you.”

Another way of self-love for Anne is making time for her well-being. She recently shared on Instagram that she now runs regularly to keep herself fit. “I am super struggling. Still at a run-walk pace. Thankful that I had a little cheerleader to greet me every loop,” she said.

Of course, another aspect of her self-love journey is her focus on skincare. Anne follows a skincare routine that has worked for her for many years. She has been using Luxe Organix serums for almost 3 years now. Depending on her skin’s immediate condition, she applies several layers of serums from the Luxe Organix line.

“I started my religious skincare routine in my 20s, but I honestly wish I started my skincare routine even way earlier to prevent  signs of aging. I wish I used face serums way earlier, especially since I am a sun-loving person. I wish I had more knowledge when it comes to skincare to prevent signs of aging,” she opened up during the intimate media discussion. “But that is why I think that what is great about TikTok beauty trends: the younger generation know and learn a lot about the importance of skincre. I am just happy now I got to incorporate serums into my skincare routine for youthful, smooth skin.”

“Actually, Luxe Organix first sent me serums to try. And those helped my skin back then and until now. I have 3 serum hacks that I can share. Number one, I apply serum before putting on foundation. This hack makes my skin ‘poreless’ that’s why I only apply a little amount of foundation. Secondly, I apply serum on my brows to make it stay in place all day. And third,  I also apply serum on my lips to make it more plump and healthy! I made all these hacks together with my favorite Luxe Organix Miracle Repair Luminous Bright Serum,” she said.

The actress also shared that she applies two to three drops of serum all over her face. She allows 30 seconds for total absorption before the next layer of serum. Aside from using it on her face, Anne shared she makes sure that she applies it or her neck too to help prevent aging in the area. On her face, she also mixes the serum with her foundation, and even uses it as a lipstick base and a brow enhancer. “Luxe Organix Serums helps you solve specific skin concern without exceeding the budget. They have variants for treating dark spots, dull skin, dry skin, fine lines & wrinkles, and many more.”

Here are the serum options she uses from Luxe Organix.

The Luxe Organix Age Reverse Firming Serum reduces fine lines and wrinkles and is best combined with Luxe Organix Aqualock Plump Up Hyrdro Serum to improve moisture and hydration. Meanwhile, the Luxe Organix Age Reverse Serum can also be used with Luxe Organix Cica Rescue Calming Serum, which heals acne and skin. It can also be used in combination with the Luxe Organix Miracle Repair Whitening Serum, which evens out dark spots.

The Luxe Organix Power Glow Serum reduces pores for a radiant glow. For best results use it together with the Miracle Repair Whitening Serum or the Whitening Repair Serum which removes dark spots and improves skin texture.

“My personal favorites are the Miracle Repair and Power Glow because they really help with my pores and on keeping the glow even with my sleepless nights,” she said. Other skincare essentials for me are acne patches, just in case you need them on special days when you are breaking out. 

Luxe Organix face serums are available at all Watsons stores in the country.
