  • Actress Mikha Tambayong views her skincare routine not as a chore, but as a valuable 'me time' for self-appreciation.

  • Tambayong has been a brand ambassador for Ultima II since 2024, aligning with the brand's philosophy on appreciating beauty and self.

For actress Mikha Tambayong, the daily ritual of applying skincare has transformed from a potential burden into a cherished moment of self-care. "As I get older, I feel that the skincare ritual is not a burden. It's become my me time, a time when I can truly appreciate myself, especially at night after finishing my activities," she shared.

Tambayong enhances her routine by incorporating facial massages, believing it maximizes product absorption and provides a subtle lifting effect. "I usually give a pause between one skincare product and the next, so it absorbs better. Then I add a little upward movement, some massage, so it really sinks in. Then a little upward movement, for a lifting effect, it's also relaxing the face, can release tension too, I think, and I feel like the skincare is really penetrating," she explained.

Having been a brand ambassador for Ultima II since 2024, Tambayong feels a strong connection with the brand, particularly its long-standing expertise in collagen. "As a user, I've tried all the variants, even Procollagen. I really like the packaging, it's very cool, and the texture is also very light on the skin. I feel like I'm evolving with Ultima II, without losing my identity as an Indonesian woman," she stated, appreciating the brand's philosophy of valuing beauty and self-appreciation.
