As a global beauty brand with strong roots in the Philippines, PILI ANI has always championed local products, artisans, talents, and voices. Itsfounders, Rosalina Tan and Mary Jane Tan-Ong have always believedin fortifying the “Made in the Philippines” brand through skincare,wellness, and beauty products that highlight local, sustainably sourcedingredients like Pili and Elemi Oils. Much of PILI ANI’s products andprocesses also showcase Philippine grown pili trees and its artisanfarmers.

And of course, Bretman Rock resonates with the brand's messaging. He's always been proudly Pinoy, and when he found out that PILI ANI is a global Filipino brand, he didn't think twice about endorsing it.

“I also always travel with my PILI ANI Deep Detox Volcanic Exfoliating Mask,” he discloses adding, “But here’s a tip, apply your face mask two days before your flight.”

Bretman observes while touching up with PILI ANI’s Tinted Lip Butters, “Here in the Philippines, everyone is spot onwith their blush and lipstick game. As our plane was landing, all the ladies were immediately bringing out their makeupto touch up on their blush.” He discloses that when traveling to warmer climates, his beauty go-tos are generally pareddown to blush and a lip tint. “It’s all about keeping it simple, and fresh.”

The past weeks have been especially hectic for Bretman as he tours for his book. “Being on the road for months onend, I meet lots of people. Sometimes, days can also be super packed and crazy,” he shares. “That sometimes givesme anxiety and so I love that I can keep PILI ANI’s Essential Oils in my purse or pocket.”

Non-stop travel to different time zones has also taken a toll on skin. According to Bretman, sleep is the ultimate cure–to keep skin glowing and fight off jet lag. He adds that a beauty pillow (which is found on Amazon) had made all thedifference for his skin. “I'm a pillow sleeper!” he exclaims. “So my face is always flat on the pillow case which is reallybad for your skin.”

Bretman offers sage advice, especially when traveling nonstop. “I also always travel with my PILI ANI Deep DetoxVolcanic Exfoliating Mask,” he discloses adding, “But here’s a tip, apply your face mask two days before your flight.”

Air travel often leaves skin feeling dry and inflamed. Recirculated air inside planes also exposes skin to various skinstressors which can often lead to drying, dulling, and even breakouts. For Bretman, a boost in skin pampering justbefore a flight ensures that he is camera ready as soon as he lands.
