It’s undeniable that the actress’ look for the 35th PMPC Star Awards For Television can’t be left unnoticed. Here, we decode her beauty look, and even garnered a MEGA exclusive insight on how she achieved her shimmering complexion
The beauty forecast hinted at the makeup techniques and skincare practices that are set to take over the sphere. It’s expected that most entries circled back from the early naughts, while some are carried over from the previous year. Take vampire skin for an example. In 2022, the aesthetic has found a new life outside the movies and has been refined into a more wearable look. And while it’s easy to oversimplify the makeup format as a short-term trend, it appears that it has etched its position in the beauty category.

In the pop culture realm, Belle Mariano and Donny Pangilinan fronted the headlines after they took home the German Moreno Power Tandem Of The Year award at the 35th PMPC Star Awards For Television. Of course, it is a given that both stars arrived in their best ensembles and beauty format. But the standout detail? Belle’s take on a vampire skin. Here, we decode her beauty look with her most-trusted celebrity makeup artist, Jake Galvez, and ways how to achieve it.
The vampire skin review
“This is the skin of a killer, Bella.” This was the Twilight line that created so much impact on pop culture as it popularized the concept of vampire skin. It simply denotes a shimmered complexion with a light swish of blacks and grays to help define the look. However, the beauty signature is not limited to a pale complexion. In fact, beautytok showcased that the look can be incorporated into numerous iterations ranging from a classic glam to a full editorial look.
The beauty breakdown
“Since it’s DonBelle‘s first awards show together, we decided to go for a classic Hollywood red carpet glam,” celebrity makeup artist Jake Galvez described the beauty direction behind Belle’s look. “I took elements from Belle’s signature look and amped it up with glitter all over her face and body.” In this photo, it is easy to decode that the makeup format is grounded with a classic brown palette. A golden bronze softly contoured her face while a swish of honey hues dressed her lids. Jake defined her eyes with black eyeliner and a pair of wispy eyelashes. Elsewhere, a swipe of a complementing nutty brown lipstick shade completed her beauty beat.
Another notable mention includes how celebrity hairstylist RJ Dela Cruz kept her hair pared down with a sleek side-parted look. It was a perfect complement to her embellished white gown designed by Francis Libiran and styled by Adrianne Concept.
Take it from the pro
Of course, the beauty chat wouldn’t be complete without knowing the secret behind Belle Mariano’s shimmering complexion. As luck would have it, Jake Galvez exclusively shared the exact product he used to achieve her vampire skin. “I used the Fenty Beauty Diamond Bomb All-Over Diamond Veil, giving Belle pure, show-stopping sparkle all over her face and body.”
