COLEEN GARCIA – The actress posted a photo on Instagram Stories where she wasn’t wearing any makeup, showing a more natural and unfiltered look.
Coleen Garcia is an actress who has been active in show business since 2011. She began her career as a child, appearing in various commercials and eventually transitioning to modeling. She gained further prominence after signing with ABS-CBN’s talent management division, Star Magic, and appearing in several television shows and series. Notably, from 2012 to 2016, Coleen was a co-host on ABS-CBN’s noontime variety show “It’s Showtime,” which significantly raised her profile.
Her acting career includes leading roles in films such as “Ex with Benefits” (2015), “Love Me Tomorrow” (2016), and “Sin Island” (2018), and in television series like “Pasión de Amor” (2015–2016) and “Ikaw Lang ang Iibigin” (2017–2018). She is married to Billy Crawford, and they have a son named Amari.
Recently, the actress posted a photo on Instagram Stories where she wasn’t wearing any makeup, showing a more natural and unfiltered look. She added a caption that many people can relate to, saying, “Actually, sometimes, I look like this.” In her message, Coleen explained that her appearance wasn’t due to bad habits, extreme stress, problems in her marriage, or feeling sad, but simply because she is a normal person.
She openly talked about having skin problems, feeling tired, and getting older every day. She also discussed how being a celebrity often involves presenting a different side to the public, complete with makeup, hair extensions, and sometimes pretending to be someone else. But away from the cameras, they can be themselves.
Coleen pointed out the contradiction in how people criticize social media for being too fake, yet also judge real and natural looks harshly if they don’t meet certain beauty standards. Through her post, she highlighted the unrealistic expectations and pressures that people, especially celebrities, face, encouraging a more understanding and realistic approach to how we view and judge others online.
Meanwhile, netizens expressed concern over the current condition of her husband, Billy Crawford.
