Sometimes taping ends up late, like 3 a.m. There are times na <em>lumalabas yung</em> pimples <em>kasi hindi naman maiiwasan yun</em>, but I really try to do my best to take care of my skin.&#x27;</p><div><br/></div><p>The &#x27;Can&#x27;t Buy Me Love&#x27; lead actor goes on to reveal that he&#x27;s also been into running, which exposes his back to sweat and dirt, leading to pimple breakouts in that area. &#x27;During my teenage years, I would get pimples <em>din naman</em>, like everyone else, obviously. But <em>hindi naman yung sobra</em>. I think not the face, more <em>dito sa likod kasi</em> I was a runner, so every day I&#x27;d be in the track field. And that was my main sport <em>talaga</em>, and I&#x27;d run like 10 kilometers a day. So, I think it was very important for me to put on sunscreen. And whenever I had the chance, to moisturize my skin as well.&#x27;</p><div><span class="fr-img-caption fr-fic fr-dib" style="width:950px"><span class="fr-img-wrap"><img loading="lazy" src="https://assets-metrostyle.abs-cbn.com/prod/metrostyle/attachments/b02547f7-b098-47b4-afd5-e5de93d1f1dd_275838920_934480537263043_3484630279795236297_n.jpeg" style="width:950px" class="fr-fic fr-dib" alt=""/></span></span></div><div><strong>On self-confidence and embracing imperfections</strong></div><p>He stressed the importance of embracing imperfections as a natural part of life while proactively seeking effective solutions. &#x27;That&#x27;s part of life, and you have to accept that, that happens,&#x27; he emphasized. &#x27;But you should also be able to try other products that will help you with that like QUICKFX.&#x27;Donny&#x27;s endorsement of QUICKFX products is rooted in his personal experience and belief in their effectiveness. He spotlighted the acne spray, pimple patches, and sunscreen as his top recommendations. He even encouraged men to reject stereotypes and embrace skin care as an important aspect of a healthy lifestyle.</p><div><span class="fr-img-caption fr-fic fr-dib" style="width:950px"><span class="fr-img-wrap"><img loading="lazy" src="https://assets-metrostyle.abs-cbn.com/prod/metrostyle/attachments/c9f5a7ec-42eb-4b85-bcb7-c9fb72c8a9c7_368098961_676943970559655_1550634207082676865_n.jpeg" style="width:950px" class="fr-fic fr-dib" alt=""/></span></span></div><p>&#x27;That&#x27;s true, a lot of times skincare is associated with women, but I think that shouldn&#x27;t be the stereotype,&#x27; the<em> Kapamilya</em> actor shared. &#x27;I know men should also take care of their skin, and there&#x27;s nothing wrong with doing that because you&#x27;re caring for yourself and [you bring your] face and body to meet people every day.&#x27;</p><div><br/></div><p>&#x27;In my case, I have to be in front of the camera. Just being able to know that your skin is healthy and you&#x27;re ready to take on the day, especially if it&#x27;s this hot or the environment is not so clean, at least you know you&#x27;re making sure you&#x27;re on track,&#x27; he added. &#x27;I think we should break the stereotype that only girls should do skincare. Everyone should be taking care of their skin because it&#x27;s also very healthy to do so.&#x27;</p><div><br/></div><div><strong>What’s In Donny’s skincare kit</strong></div><p>The ABS-CBN Ball 2023 is almost near, and we asked the actor how he is preparing for the much-anticipated event, “Hopefully I won’t get a pimple on that night! Let’s not claim that.” he laughs. “We’re in the process of looking for a nice suit. Apart from that, I will probably have the whole kit but <em>siguro</em> with the pimple cream, so that whatever happens, if anything comes out that night, it will dry right away. That’s the most important thing”</p><div><br/></div><p>What’s inside Donny&#x27;s QUICKFX limited edition Pimple Eraser kit?
