What has it been like to be involved in such a successful franchise that has such a dedicated fanbase?Article continues below It’s been truly amazing. Witnessing the enthusiasm from the fans and their love and passion for this project is wonderful. As an artist and actor, it’s incredibly rewarding to know that you have made people invested in a piece of art you’re part of. Seeing how fans connect with the story and characters is fantastic. This level of fan engagement is a first for me, and it’s been delightful.The fans have really resonated with Denise, without a doubt. She's our corporate girl! Exactly! She’s a "tell it like it is" corporate girl. I love playing her, and I’m glad the fans feel a connection with her and appreciate her character arc this season. What would you say Denise's beauty philosophy is, and how does it compare to your own?I think Denise is focused on practicality, especially in the workplace. Honestly, she would probably prioritize her skincare routine more than her makeup. However, when she’s out and about, she enjoys dressing up and having fun with her look. We explored this aspect during makeup and hair, perhaps adding a touch of glitter or a fun lip color. She knows how to use her makeup according to the occasion. As for me, I share a similar sense of practicality. I tend to stick with what I know when it comes to makeup. I have a consistent routine that I follow unless it’s for a special event, in which case I might try something new. Being an autumn, I naturally lean toward warm colors like browns and burgundies. My makeup routine is efficient, so it doesn’t take me much time. What would you say are the key beauty lessons you learned from your character?Probably how to style my hair [laughs], especially when it comes to updos. I usually wear it down, and like Denise, when I don’t have it down, I opt for a slick-back. Throughout the filming, we experimented with various fun updos that showcased my curly hair, and it was nice to discover different styles. Now, I need to ask about your curly hair routine and favorite updos—any essential tips? Honestly, I think bobby pins are the secret—lots of bobby pins and a hair tie. With curly hair, it's important to shape the curls so they enhance your face properly. I always find myself pulling bobby pins out at the end of the day after an updo. It’s so romantic how it frames the face. Yes, I adore the little pieces that fall around the ears. It appears effortless, but it’s actually very carefully styled.

The Curl Charisma line works wonders for my hair. Since my hair is mostly 3a and quite fine, using too much product can weigh it down and make it look greasy. I prefer volume over definition, and Briogeo’s products deliver just that. I’ve also been using the Cécred line, which is phenomenal. Their hair drops and clarifying shampoo are staples for me. I use Briogeo’s shampoo, conditioner, gel, and cream—all from the Curl Charisma collection. Switching to a curly hair shampoo and conditioner has made a significant difference for me. My hairdresser advised me to use products targeted to my hair type instead of scalp-focused ones, and it has really enhanced my curl definition. That's a great lead-in—I’d love to hear other beauty tips or product recommendations you picked up on set! Definitely the shampoo and conditioner. I also discovered the Osis+ Dust It hair volumizer, which they applied to my roots on set. I became quite fond of it since it gave my hair a lift I had never seen before. I now use it regularly. Another thing I started doing on set is double-cleansing my face after a long day of wearing heavy makeup. It’s crucial to wash it all off thoroughly
