With years of experience, Ting Duque has established herself as one of the industry's finest makeup artists. Her impressive list of celebrity clients includes notable names like Liza Soberano, Bea Alonzo, Julie Anne San Jose, Carmina Villaroel, and many more.
One thing Ting has observed among celebrities is that they truly invest in maintaining flawless skin. After all, their faces are their bread and butter. She expounded, "All of them kasi... I always say this, they are their own business. So, they really take care of themselves. They exercise. They really take care of themselves."
The easiest method to achieve that celebrity glow is by following a basic skincare routine, and not forgetting to use sunscreen. She said, "They're very knowledgeable when it comes to protecting their skin. So, they really use sunscreen. It's very rare that I work with a celebrity, male or female, who doesn't use sunscreen."
Ting emphasized that the ideal time to apply sunscreen is immediately after your morning skincare routine.
reiterated the "two-finger rule" for applying sunscreen. In simple terms, it means the amount of sunscreen required for your face should be about the length of two fingers.
Personally, Ting favors sunscreens that she's able to measure. She said, "Kasi pag spray, it's kind of difficult. I use a spray as touch-up pero underneath talaga, yun yung important, kung ano yung nasa ilalim. Talagang yun yung tinatawag kong parang armor mo. So ako personally, I would still use a product like the Kojie.san cream type of sunscreen."
Ting also pointed out that some people don't feel comfortable wearing sunscreen due to certain formulations feeling oily. She advised selecting a product that feels comfortable and, if possible, one with tint for added benefits.
The makeup artist stated, "Well, I can't help but understand naman... because a lot of their concern is that it's oily, it feels uncomfortable, so yun ang mga ayaw nila."
"Pero kasi now they already know it's needed, everyone needs it, so I think it's more of that. But the Kojie.san sunscreen, it's tinted so parang ang dami mo nang makukuhang benefits sa isang product lang, from a sunscreen."
