Apart from being a hands-on businesswoman and loving wife and mother to her family, Ara Mina shared that she has been busy getting ready preparing her fans for an unforgettable show. 

It can be recalled that her one-night only concert “All of Me” draws near, slated to happen on July 11 at the Newport Performing Arts Theater in Pasay City. The show is extra special as it celebrates Ara’s 30th anniversary in show business. 

At 45, Ara admits she has not only been practicing her performances, but preparing her body to be on the spotlight. During the presscon for the show, she revealed how she has been maintaining her sexy figure. 

“Dati nahihirapan ako mag-diet eh. So ngayon parang yung kain normal na lang siya tapos busy pa. Siguro ang dami kong ginagawa tapos hindi rin naman ako ma-junk foods eh. Hidni rin ako ma-softdrinks. Ma-rice ako pero nakasukat sa bahay. Parang twice a day lang ako nag-cu-cup ng rice. Parang two cups of rice a day lang ako. Minsan nag-se-seven minute workout ako, yung mga nasa YouTube? Yung ganun. Yung walang dumbbells. Yung workout na squats, yung mga five to seven minute workouts lang. I can’t do one hour kasi nga busy. Sinisingit ko para ma-stretch yung body ganun,” she said. 

Ara admits that she also uses a corset when she goes to bed at night. 

“Tapos I still use corset pag natutulog ako. So I remove it pagkagising ko. So pagka-remove ko siya, talagang flat na flat yung tummy ko. Latex corset. Naglalagay muna ako ng tank top tapos saka ko pinapatong. Kasi para hindi mag-burn yung latex sa skin ko. Pero yung mga latex ngayon na corset, may tela na nakadikit. Kahit nung araw ang liliit ng beywang nila kasi naka-corset damit nila, mga 19 na waistline,” she shared. 

Shhe went on to explain how she uses it. 

“Uneasy lang siya at first pero masasanay ka. Pag hindi ka makahinga, ibig sabihin hindi right fit yung corset mo. Kasi tatlong hook yan eh. So mag-sa-start ka sa first hook tapos eventually after one week mapapansin mo luluwag na sa yo. Pupunta ka sa second hook. So I’m using the extra small na, the last hook. I started sa medium naman pero nasa last hook ako. Yung beywang ko ngayon hindi naman siya 24. Minsan naglalaro sa 26. Pero pag hindi ako masyado kumakain, pag nag-straight corset ako ng one week, nag-ti-24 and a half to 25 ako. Ganun. Pero na-stick na ako sa extra small,” she added.

On top of her diet, Ara said she has not resorted to any procedures. She also swears by her own line of beauty products. 

“Siyempre Ara’s Secret pa rin. Yung products ko pa rin. Kung mapapansin niyo, wala naman ako masyadong ginagawa sa mukha ko or something. Tamad nga ako magpa-facial (laughs). So moisturizer, cream sa gabi, ganun. Panglinis lang. And I don’t wash my face in the morning. Pag naliligo na lang ako. And I don’t wash my face in the evening. May panglinis lang ako. Too much of washing your face can dry your face,” she revealed.
