What makes Ruffa Gutierrez beautiful?

Despite her busy schedule, Ruffa Gutierrez still manages to stay beautiful.

The former beauty queen said she feels most beautiful “when helping other people; as you know I love contributing to different causes. So I feel inner glow like I feel something good inside of me when I reach out and help others.”

She added, “Of course, I also feel beautiful when I’m with my family because for me, Lorin and Venice are my everything. I feel most beautiful when I’m a mom and I take care of them and see that I’m successful in being mom. And of course, the third is physical beauty. I felt the best when I am well rested, when I get enough sleep. And aside from eating healthy and doing exercises and having a positive and happy outlook in life, I have a beauty secret: Cosmo Skin…”

Like most women in her profession, Ruffa is not exempt from the harsh realities inherent to a fast-paced lifestyle. Ruffa said, “I’m no longer 18 years old, I have to think about wrinkles, uneven skin tone and even dark spots.”

For Ruffa, skincare is very important, as she said, “Kasi uso na ngayon ang HD TV, lahat nakikita – mga pimples, mga pores. So kailangan talaga flawless ang skin ko.”

Ruffa has found the perfect ally in Cosmo Skin, the country’s premier glutathione supplement which has an advanced skin whitening technology. “With only two capsules a day, I feel more radiant, more beautiful, younger, with a fairer, lovelier complexion,” she enthused.

Cosmo Skin is a product of Bargn Farmaceutici Philippines Co., established in 2006 by Nino Bautista and John Redentor Gatus, Jr. BFPC has won many awards including the Watson’s Health Wellness and Beauty Award as Brand of the Year in 2010, the Skincare Brand of the Year and the Gold Brand Award for 2013. It also won the Consumers Choice Award last year.
