Francine Prieto is considered one of local entertainment’s most sought-after bombshells. With her flawless skin, long legs and to-die for vital stats, she fits the description to a T. Born Anne Marie Falcon, “Francine,” as everyone knows her, just turned 26 this month. But even as young as she is, Francine is determined to make it big in showbiz. She knew early on that she was a performer at heart. “I was an artist since I was a child. But as I got older, it became more difficult to land good projects so I tried modeling. But I think I was made for show business and so here I am.” But she also has bigger plans for the future, she continues her studies at Adamson University and is taking up BS Psychology because she also dreams of becoming a doctor one day.
Even though Francine is constantly in the spotlight nowadays, she always insists that she is just like any regular girl. She is a techie and loves surfing the Net and chatting with her fans. She loves shopping and reading romantic comedies, “I’m just your average everyday person — I frequent malls, play at Timezone, those things. Hey, I also have a Friendster account!”
Of course there is always the inevitable “sex symbol” image Francine has to cope with. So to stay fit and keep healthy, she is into working out at the gym, jogging, rock-climbing, tennis and badminton. Francine admits that she’s not much into dieting but tries to control her food intake to keep her svelte physique, “I am really picky, I only eat chicken, crabs, shrimp and some fish and I’m like the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles because I really love cheese pizza, it is my vitamin. But I always try to control my food intake though I don’t starve myself anymore because I am already exercising to burn those calories.”
And all her hard work has definitely paid of because aside from her showbiz commitments, Francine has landed a stint as one of Ever Bilena’s top endorsers. She has been the cosmetic company’s spokeswoman for two years now and is just loving the relationship she has with the brand.
“Ever Bilena has a strong foundation as a company because it has been in the business for 25 years. I’ve been using its products even before I became its endorser, because they’re very affordable with a good quality. The company is very aggressive with its campaigns in making Filipina women beautiful just by using its products to enhance their natural beauty,” Francine says about the brand. When asked about her favorite EB product, she remarked, “I really love EB’s eyeliner, it’s better than those expensive ones. I also love the lip liner, Smooth eyes, Smooth lips. I also like its bronzing powder, it gives my skin some shine and shimmer and my new favorite is the Magic Lipstick, because it really stays longer so you don’t need to retouch often.”
Ever Bilena was established in 1976 and is currently celebrating 25 years of color (makeup) cosmetics manufacturing and exporting. It offers quality products at reasonable prices. That is why it come out with its brand new Silver Collection featuring fresh products that will surely satisfy the modern woman on the go.
The Ever Bilena Silver Collection Face Powder optimizes the effects of light and diminishes the appearance of imperfections for a naturally even and glowing complexion. The unique formula enriched with Vitamin E comforts skin and reduces tightening and drying. Skin is wrapped in a luxuriously soft powder veil and given further protection by its special sunblock agents. The delicate, ultra-fine texture doesn’t cake or settle into fine lines. The Silver Collection Blush-on is a luxuriously silky powder blush that blends well to skin to color and contour. Cheeks never look dry because of Vitamin E and has sunscreen for extra protection from the harmful rays of the sun.
Every shade highlights cheekbones with a sheer wash of color to create a naturally flushed look. Also, get amazing lashes with Ever Bilena Silver Collection Mascara. With its long wand, it is very easy to get to those hard-to-reach lash areas. The fine bristles and creamy formula allows the rich black color to effortlessly wrap around individual lashes giving it volume and length with every stroke. And finally, have the luxury to stand out from the crowd with glamorous lips any time of the day with Ever Bilena Silver Collection Lipstick. With its sleek form and velvety finish, this lipstick glides over the lips with smooth and easy precision. The colors and shimmery effect last longer than ordinary lipsticks. It is also specially formulated with Vitamin E to keep lips healthy and supple all day.
