Perseverance paid huge for Queenay Mercado.
After languishing in the sidelines and for years, the 21-year-old BatangueƱa is now slowly but surely carving a niche in local entertainment.
Note that she has been earning raves for her marked performance in the hit TV5 series āOh My Corona.ā
Of course, she could only be happy.
āParang kasi diba, pangarap mo lang? Tapos biglang nagkatotoo. Overwhelming po talaga,ā she told us.
āTo think na before, ang dami ko pong hirap na pinagdaanan,ā she added. āMga paulit-ulit na rejections, mga panlalait, pero tinuloy ko lang po. Kaya nga po nakakatuwa talaga na kahit paano natutupad ko na ang pangarap ko.ā
It all started with TikTok, where she is certified queen.
Queenay shared, āNag-umpisa po yun sa katuwaan lang pero marami yata ang masyadong natuwa kaya, hayun.ā
As added benefit to her growing fame, Queenay is now also an endorser.
She was personally picked by Jamira Magcale, president of JDM Corporation, as the face of beauty brand Jullien Skin.
Queenay said, āActually hindi ako makapaniwala na ako ang pinili nila. Kasi siyempre feeling ko parang hindi naman ako ganun kagandahan. Pero, of course, thankful ako sa tiwala nila.ā
Said Jamira of their partnership with Queenay, āWe like her kasi sheās bubbly, talented, very Pinay and, quite relatable to many of her age. Ang tagline ng Jullien Skin ay āIlabas ang ganda.ā And I think Queenay could best represent that kasi she exudes positivity, confidence.ā
Note that Queenay actually uses the Jullien Skin Rejuvenating Set, which contains a Kojic cleaning soap, a rejuvenating toner, a hydrating sunscreen, and a rejuvenating night cream.
āAng laki po ng impact nito sa aking beauty routine,ā said Queenay. āWeeks lang makikita mo na ang effect. Thatās why Iām so grateful for being chosen as an endorser for Jullien Skin. Having skin that feels and looks good on the outside helps my confidence.ā
Jullien Skin is exclusively sold at Puregold for only P299.
