Megan Young, expecting in celebratory mood, punctuates her pregnancy journey with the launch of a new line of beauty care for pregnant women. A week after celebrating her 35th birthday on February 27, the Kapuso star officially introduces the Sunflower line of her beauty brand, Megan Beauty, commemorating the radiance of pregnancy and the power of self-care.
While many believe pregnancy naturally gives women a radiant glow, Megan admits that wasn’t the case for her at first.
Megan Young on Skin Concerns as a Pregnant Woman
One of her biggest pregnancy skin concerns was acne, which she managed with patience and proper care. “Noong una, hindi ko pa na-feel yung pregnancy glow. So totoo na lang, medyo pregnancy un-glow siya para sa akin,” she confesses with a laugh. “I really felt haggard in the beginning, na parang I didn’t feel like myself."
"My skin was really dry. I started getting a bit of acne in the beginning so I did not feel my best self during the first trimester," she continues, “Nagkaroon talaga ako ng acne and pimples in different areas—sobrang laki!"
For stretch marks, Megan hasn’t seen any yet, but she has been proactive: “So far, wala pa naman ako stretch marks. Kasi since I found out that I was pregnant in the first month, gumagamit na ako ng body butter," she explains.
“So, as in, talagang mino-moisturize ko siya nang todo-todo, kahit OA na sa paglagay ng body butter, okay na yun. But, sabi talaga ng ibang friends ko, nung eighth to ninth month na daw nila, saka lang lumabas ang stretch marks."
Megan attest thought that such changes are things, "you can't really control because it just happens to your body. So, for me, my mindset is expect na baka magkaroon ako because my body is changing."
“But at the same time, I'll do my best that I can to keep my skin moisturized and protected just in case magkaroon ako.”
Megan married actor Mikael Daez in an intimate and low-key wedding, in two ceremonies: one in Batangas on January 10th and another in Subic on January 25th, 2020. On December 6, 2024, Megan and Mikael announced that they are expecting their firstborn—a baby boy.
