Any Asia's Next Top Model fans here? *raises hand* They are now on the 4th season and I'm so excited to see what the candidates can offer, oh! and even learn posing tips from them! What's even more exciting, one of my most favorite makeup brands, Maybelline New York reveals global makeup partnership with AsNTM Cycle 4 and will be a part of making these aspiring top models' dreams happen. I'm totally looking forward with the most daring and boldest beauty looks they can come up with for the models of this cycle.
Before anything else, I would like to share my favorites from the past seasons of Asia's Next Top Model.
Stephanie Retuya - AsNTM Cycle 1

She's a schoolmate of mine in San Beda College Alabang and have bumped into her a couple of times in the gazeebo and some school activities. I just love how friendly and kind-hearted she is. I can tell she's beautiful inside and out.
Katarina Rodriguez - AsNTM Cycle 2

Jodilly Pendre - AsNTM Cycle 2

These two Katarina and Jodilly, I was able to watch the entire season, even twice I guess. I love how natural they are. For me thou, Jodilly exudes that Filipina beauty vibe. Don't get me wrong, they are all beautiful (all three of them) but her skin and facial features are so Asian / Filipina.
Monika Sta. Maria - AsNTM Cycle 3

I wasn't able to watch the whole season but I heard she banged 4 best photo during the contest and I can't deny how good she is! I love all her shots actually and congrats for being chosen by Subaru! Omg that's on the list of my dream cars!
Asia's Next Top Model Cycle 4 starts airing yesterday, March 9th and I'm looking forward to the show's 5th episode, dubbed as the "Maybelline Episode" brings on-board Nigel Stansilaus - well acclaimed makeup director and Maybelline resident makeup guru both in Australia and Singapore to lead the Maybelline-inspired photoshoot challenge.
To mentor the models throughout the season we have Patricia Fields - a fashion visionary, Nicole Warne - "Garry Pepper Girl" proponent, Madeaw - a 15 yo. Thai model and designer, and of course our very own Maybelline Ambassador, Georgina Wilson! (watch my interview with her here)
Let me know who's your bet this season! Philippines has been on Top during the past cycles and I wish this time, she brings home the title! 😉 Good luck to all contestants!
