Kyline Alcantara shares biggest skincare mistake

At the Cosmo Beauty Con 2019 Sunday, Kyline Alcantara shared putting on various products on her face is the biggest skincare routine mistake she's ever committed. 

"Lahat — oil, moisturizer, kung anu-ano, pinagpatong-patong ko. And then ang kinalabasan nun nagkaron ako ng breakout," Kyline shared.

She said the breakouts led to insecurity and lack of self-confidence so paralyzing that she did not even want to leave her house.

"Doon talaga bumaba 'yong confidence ko. Sabi ko sa parents ko, ayoko na lumabas kasi ganito 'yong skin ko," she said.

"Ayoko na magpakita sa ibang tao kasi ganito itsura ko, baka ma-bash ako," told GMA News Online after her talk.

Kyline has since learned to take it easy on skincare products, now only using a facial wash and moisturizer.

As for her confidence, Kyline turned to her parents. "'Yung mga magulang ko 'yong nakatulong sa akin sa pag- regain ko ng confidence. Sila din 'yong nakatulong sakin paano ko pa mas mamahalin sarili ko," she said.

Kyline admitted that although she gained back her confidence, she is still a "work in progress. Confidence is not an overnight thing."

The Kapuso actor will be starring in a film about confidence and accepting oneself, it is titled "Black Lipstick" where she will play a role of a girl who has vitiligo.

According to Mayo Clinic, vitiligo "is a disease that causes the loss of skin color in blotches."

Kyline was one of the guest speakers at the Cosmo Beauty Con 2019; she talked about makeup, skincare and self-love. — LA, GMA News
