<p>Kapamilya actress Andrea Brillantes shared the story behind her recap of 2024 makeup transformation trends.</p><p>During the Star Magic Spotlight press conference, Andrea explained that she was initially supposed to create the video earlier, but a conflict in her schedule due to tapings delayed the project.</p><p>“Gustong gusto ko talaga gawin iyong challenges na iyon noong time na iyon kaso busy lang ako sa taping noon sa <em>High Street</em>,” Andrea told PUSH.</p><div><br/></div><iframe class="instagram-media instagram-media-rendered" id="instagram-embed-0" src="https://www.instagram.com/p/DCbZNkQPYL0/embed/?cr=1&amp;v=14&amp;wp=540&amp;rd=https%3A%2F%2Fod2-workbench-web.abs-cbn.com&amp;rp=%2F#%7B%22ci%22%3A0%2C%22os%22%3A832519.5%2C%22ls%22%3A832306.5%2C%22le%22%3A832316.8999999911%7D" allowtransparency="true" allowfullscreen="" frameBorder="0" height="880" data-instgrm-payload-id="instagram-media-payload-0" scrolling="no" style="background:white;max-width:540px;width:calc(100% - 2px);border-radius:3px;border:1px solid rgb(219, 219, 219);box-shadow:none;display:block;margin:0px 0px 12px;min-width:326px;padding:0px"></iframe><script async="" src="//www.instagram.com/embed.js"></script><p>She also shared how portraying her character, Sky, on the hit series <em>Senior High</em> and <em>High Street</em> required her full attention, especially because the role deals with heavy issues.</p><p>“Ang bigat kasi talaga ni Sky. Kapag magtaping ako, medyo nakapause talaga iyong life ko kapag si Sky noong <em>Senior High</em> and <em>High Street</em>. Ang bigat niya rin kasing character and ang bigat noong tinatackle niya na issues,” Andrea admitted.</p><p>Andrea also addressed rumors about her absence from social media, explaining, “Hindi ko lang siya nagawa kasi wala akong time tapos mayroon akong idea talaga kung paano ko siya gustong gawin.”</p><div><a href="https://www.abs-cbn.com/2024/4/28/look-marian-rivera-transforms-to-marimar-in-latest-tiktok-trend-1731"><strong>READ: Marian Rivera transforms to Marimar in latest TikTok trend</strong></a></div><p>Andrea, who is very hands-on with her content, revealed that she originally planned to feature the oldest Filipino tattoo artist Apo Whang-Od in her makeup transformation video.</p><p>“Dapat pupunta pa ako kay Whang-Od. Naka-schedule na iyon, napagpaalam ko na and everything. Gusto ko siyang isali doon. Dapat pupunta ako doon,” Andrea shared.</p><p>She added, “Mayroon talaga akong visions. Nakaayos na talaga ito dati kaso hindi lang kinakaya kasi.”</p><p>Creating high-quality content also comes with a significant budget, which led Andrea to pause her plans.</p><p>“Hindi yata nare-realize ng mga tao na mahal gumawa ng content shoots. Ang mahal niya tapos yung mahal pa sa budget ko ay iyong napaka-friendly budget na iyon,” Andrea expressed.<strong></strong></p><div><br/></div><iframe class="instagram-media instagram-media-rendered" id="instagram-embed-1" src="https://www.instagram.com/p/DCWNyWQv7Qv/embed/?cr=1&amp;v=14&amp;wp=540&amp;rd=https%3A%2F%2Fod2-workbench-web.abs-cbn.com&amp;rp=%2F#%7B%22ci%22%3A1%2C%22os%22%3A832533.1999999881%2C%22ls%22%3A832306.5%2C%22le%22%3A832316.8999999911%7D" allowtransparency="true" allowfullscreen="" frameBorder="0" height="880" data-instgrm-payload-id="instagram-media-payload-1" scrolling="no" style="background:white;max-width:540px;width:calc(100% - 2px);border-radius:3px;border:1px solid rgb(219, 219, 219);box-shadow:none;display:block;margin:0px 0px 12px;min-width:326px;padding:0px"></iframe><script async="" src="//www.instagram.com/embed.js"></script><p>Despite the challenges, she didn’t want to rush the video just to keep up with trends.</p><p>“Ang mahal nito tapos grabe yung effort, tapos ipipilit ko lang. Ako kasi, kung hindi magagawa yung vision ko, huwag na lang. Kung magiging pilit, huwag na lang. Ayon yung nangyari sa amin, sa team ko,” Andrea shared.</p><div><a href="https://www.abs-cbn.com/beauty/makeup/filipino-celebrities-asoka-makeup-challenge/38007"><strong>READ: Pinoy Celebrities on the Asoka Makeup Challenge</strong></a></div><p>Instead of stressing about the timing, Andrea decided to compile all the makeup transformation trends she had missed into a year-end recap.</p><p>“Noong naisip ko iyon, ilalagay ko na lang sa end of the year bilang recap, bilang rewind na lang,” she remarked.</p><p>Her recap also allowed her to include the &quot;Piliin Mo Ang Pilipinas&quot; trend. </p><p>“Kaya rin ako may rewind, recap, actually para rin iyon sa ‘Piliin Mo Ang Pilipinas’. It just needed to make sense kasi kung out of the blue na lang may ‘Piliin Mo Ang Pilipinas’ parang ‘Huh? Bakit?’ so kinumpleto ko iyong mga naging sikat that year, yung ‘Asoka’ yung ‘Marimar’, yung ‘10 minutes’ para man lang maitawid ko iyon,” she revealed.</p><div><br/></div><blockquote cite="https://www.tiktok.com/@blythe/video/7438189189360798983" class="tiktok-embed" data-video-id="7438189189360798983" id="v1866820192911467" style="max-width:605px;min-width:325px"><section><a href="https://www.tiktok.com/@blythe?refer=embed" target="_blank" title="@blythe">@blythe</a> PILIIN MO ANG PILIPINAS! 🇵🇭❤️‍🔥 Maraming salamat po sa lahat ng nanood ng 2024 MAKEUP TRENDS REWIND ko! 🥹 ofc special thanks to my team and Lucky Beauty for making my vision come to life🥹✨ thank you all so much! <a href="https://www.tiktok.com/tag/fyp?refer=embed" target="_blank" title="fyp">#fyp</a> <a href="https://www.tiktok.com/music/Piliin-mo-ang-pilipinas-7291291134310648582?refer=embed" target="_blank" title="♬ Piliin mo ang pilipinas - DracTzyシ">♬ Piliin mo ang pilipinas - DracTzyシ</a></section><iframe name="__tt_embed__v1866820192911467" sandbox="allow-popups allow-popups-to-escape-sandbox allow-scripts allow-top-navigation allow-same-origin" src="https://www.tiktok.com/embed/v2/7438189189360798983?lang=en-US&amp;referrer=https%3A%2F%2Fod2-workbench-web.abs-cbn.com%2F%23%2Fworkspace%2Fmonitoring%3Fitem%3Durn%3Anewsml%3Aod2-workbench-api.abs-cbn.com%3A2025-01-21T11%3A59%3A50.379766%3Aa0a88b06-2913-4a05-a61a-4e30eef820fe%26action%3Dedit" style="width:0px;height:0px;display:none;visibility:hidden"></iframe></blockquote><script async="" src="https://www.tiktok.com/embed.js"></script><div><br/></div><div><a href="https://www.abs-cbn.com/entertainment/2024/5/5/-piliin-mo-ang-pilipinas-trend-takes-over-social-media-1655"><strong>READ: &#x27;Piliin mo ang Pilipinas&#x27; trend takes over social media </strong><br/></a></div><p>“Ginawa ko siyang isang buong rewind para magmake sense na it’s a 2024 rewind of the makeup trends.”</p><p>Looking back on how they created the video, which has now garnered over 19 million views on TikTok, Andrea shared, “3 days iyon na dire-diretso.

Talagang vision ko na iyon dati pa, hindi ko lang siya naisingit.

Medyo alanganin na kung itutuloy ko pa. I could have pushed through, but I would’ve had to simplify my vision for this challenge. I didn’t want to compromise because I wanted to give my best effort to represent every Filipino and truly capture what it means to be one.,” Andrea wrote.</p><div><br/></div><iframe class="instagram-media" id="instagram-embed-3" src="https://www.instagram.com/p/DCgrhLgvQpd/embed/?cr=1&amp;v=14&amp;wp=540&amp;rd=https%3A%2F%2Fod2-workbench-web.abs-cbn.com&amp;rp=%2F#%7B%22ci%22%3A3%2C%22os%22%3A834623.099999994%2C%22ls%22%3A832306.5%2C%22le%22%3A832316.8999999911%7D" allowtransparency="true" allowfullscreen="" frameBorder="0" height="0" data-instgrm-payload-id="instagram-media-payload-3" scrolling="no" style="background:white;max-width:540px;width:calc(100% - 2px);border-radius:3px;border:1px solid rgb(219, 219, 219);box-shadow:none;display:block;margin:0px;min-width:326px;padding:0px;position:absolute"></iframe><blockquote class=" instagram-media-registered" data-instgrm-permalink="https://www.instagram.com/p/DCgrhLgvQpd/?utm_source=ig_embed&amp;utm_campaign=loading" data-instgrm-version="14" id="instagram-media-payload-3" style="background:#FFF;border:0;border-radius:3px;box-shadow:0 0 1px 0 rgba(0,0,0,0.5),0 1px 10px 0 rgba(0,0,0,0.15);margin:1px;max-width:540px;min-width:326px;padding:0;width:calc(100% - 2px)"><div style="padding:16px"><a href="https://www.instagram.com/p/DCgrhLgvQpd/?utm_source=ig_embed&amp;utm_campaign=loading" style="background:#FFFFFF;line-height:0;padding:0 0;text-align:center;text-decoration:none;width:100%" target="_blank"><div style="display:flex;flex-direction:row;align-items:center"><div style="background-color:#F4F4F4;border-radius:50%;flex-grow:0;height:40px;margin-right:14px;width:40px"><br/></div><div style="display:flex;flex-direction:column;flex-grow:1;justify-content:center"><div style="background-color:#F4F4F4;border-radius:4px;flex-grow:0;height:14px;margin-bottom:6px;width:100px"><br/></div><div style="background-color:#F4F4F4;border-radius:4px;flex-grow:0;height:14px;width:60px"><br/></div></div></div><div style="padding:19% 0"><br/></div><div style="display:block;height:50px;margin:0 auto 12px;width:50px"><br/></div><div style="padding-top:8px"><div style="color:#3897f0;line-height:18px">View this post on Instagram</div></div><div style="padding:12.5% 0"><br/></div><div style="display:flex;flex-direction:row;margin-bottom:14px;align-items:center"><div><div style="background-color:#F4F4F4;border-radius:50%;height:12.5px;width:12.5px;transform:translateX(0px) translateY(7px)"><br/></div><div style="background-color:#F4F4F4;height:12.5px;transform:rotate(-45deg) translateX(3px) translateY(1px);width:12.5px;flex-grow:0;margin-right:14px;margin-left:2px"><br/></div><div style="background-color:#F4F4F4;border-radius:50%;height:12.5px;width:12.5px;transform:translateX(9px) translateY(-18px)"><br/></div></div><div style="margin-left:8px"><div style="background-color:#F4F4F4;border-radius:50%;flex-grow:0;height:20px;width:20px"><br/></div><div style="width:0;height:0;border-top:2px solid transparent;border-left:6px solid #f4f4f4;border-bottom:2px solid transparent;transform:translateX(16px) translateY(-4px) rotate(30deg)"><br/></div></div><div style="margin-left:auto"><div style="width:0px;border-top:8px solid #F4F4F4;border-right:8px solid transparent;transform:translateY(16px)"><br/></div><div style="background-color:#F4F4F4;flex-grow:0;height:12px;width:16px;transform:translateY(-4px)"><br/></div><div style="width:0;height:0;border-top:8px solid #F4F4F4;border-left:8px solid transparent;transform:translateY(-4px) translateX(8px)"><br/></div></div></div><div style="display:flex;flex-direction:column;flex-grow:1;justify-content:center;margin-bottom:24px"><div style="background-color:#F4F4F4;border-radius:4px;flex-grow:0;height:14px;margin-bottom:6px;width:224px"><br/></div><div style="background-color:#F4F4F4;border-radius:4px;flex-grow:0;height:14px;width:144px"><br/></div></div></a><div style="color:#c9c8cd;line-height:17px;margin-bottom:0;margin-top:8px;overflow:hidden;padding:8px 0 7px;text-align:center;text-overflow:ellipsis;white-space:nowrap"><a href="https://www.instagram.com/p/DCgrhLgvQpd/?utm_source=ig_embed&amp;utm_campaign=loading" style="color:#c9c8cd;line-height:17px;text-decoration:none" target="_blank">A post shared by Andrea Brillantes (@blythe)</a></div></div></blockquote><script async="" src="//www.instagram.com/embed.js"></script><p>“I dedicate this sa ating mga Bayani who fought for our freedom, to our families who serve as the heart of our culture, to our modern-day heroes, our indigenous communities, our global icons and national pride, and every hardworking Filipino out there,” she continued.</p><p>“I did it to show my love for Filipinos and how proud I am to be Pinoy!”</p>
