AFTER walking the runway of the Victoria’s Secret fashion show, Kelsey Merritt has checked an entry off her bucket list once again after she got featured on American Vogue. The Pinay supermodel shared her daily beauty routine in a new Vogue video.
“OMG my beauty secrets with Vogue magazine is out!! I never imagined I would ever work with Vogue, so this is another one off of my bucket list!! I’m in tears of joy right now,” she posted on Instagram.
In the video, Kelsey did the makeup that helped her land a spot at the Victoria’s Secret fashion show. The model shared the products she used in her beauty routine. She also expressed how elated she is to book the VS stint. “It means a lot to me and the people back home because they love Victoria’s Secret so much and they’ve always wanted a Philippine model to walk the show. I feel like this is not just like success for me, it’s like also success for them,” Kelsey said in the video.
Vogue dubbed Kelsey as “not your average Victoria’s Secret model.” The American fashion magazine wrote on its Instagram page, “The 22-year-old is the first Filipino to ever walk the iconic lingerie label’s runway, a victory she shares with the country where she was born and raised until she moved to New York City last year. Here, she shares with us the beauty routine she did for her Victoria’s Secret casting: ‘I wanted to bring out my best qualities – not cover them up’.” (Push)
