Galderma’s Journey of Glow Finally Lands in the Philippines

Glowing skin isn’t just about looking radiant: it’s about feeling confident in your own skin. That’s the idea behind Galderma’s Journey of Glow, which has been making its way across Asia and has finally arrived in the Philippines, in partnership with The Icon Clinic.

More than an event, the Journey of Glow is designed as an immersive beauty experience, one that encourages you to see skincare and treatments not just as vanity, but as self-care. “Glow isn’t just about radiant and refreshed skin; it’s having that healthy and renewed skin from inside out. Giving you the confidence to celebrate beauty” shares Michelle De Jesus, Business Unit Head of Galderma Aesthetics, at the Journey of Glow launch.

At the center of the experience is the Icon Glow On treatment, a combination of Restylane Skinboosters and Sculptra, two innovations that work synergistically to deliver both instant and long-lasting results.

Restylane Skinboosters works like water for the skin, delivering deep hydration that smooths texture, refines pores, and restores that dewy, lit-from-within look constantly craved for. It is the original and long-lasting injectable designed to improve skin quality with results lasting up to 15 months, thanks to its use of hyaluronic acid (HA), a naturally occurring molecule that binds water, keeping skin soft, hydrated, and glowing. Restylane Skinboosters delivers micro-droplets of stabilized HA beneath the skin, creating reservoirs of long-term hydration and restoring skin’s natural composition.

Rae Belle Dennis and Bea Padilla tried the Icon Glow On Treatment, enhancing what is already there with a combination of Restylane Skinboosters and Sculptra. 

Meanwhile, Sculptra is the first and original FDA-approved regenerative biostimulator injectable that helps replenish age-related collagen and elastin loss. Sculptra injects PLLA-SCA (poly-l-lactic acid) deep into the skin, it induces the stimulation of collagen and elastin production to help our body boost its own collagen and elastin production, to smooth fine lines, wrinkles, and correction of shallow to deep nasolabial fold. Sculptra reaches places no topical creams can touch, and it’s the only proven regenerative biostimulator that can stimulate skin’s natural elastin production. The effect? Skin that looks fresh today and stays youthful for years to come. 

“What I love most about Icon Glow On is that it doesn’t change how you look: it enhances what’s already there,” says Dr. Eric C. Yapjuangco, also known as Dr. Yappy.

Rona Tai; The Icon Clinic’s Ambassador, who obtained of the treatment, says that she likes the way it seamlessly intenerates with her life: “Usually when I wake up, I’ve only had five or six hours of sleep, but with this treatment, I look like I’ve had eight.” As a busy woman, Tai has no time for a high-maintenance skin routine, which is why she loves the Glow On Treatment because it allows her to be low-maintenance. “I don’t always have to worry about a super long skincare routine just to look moisturized and hydrated, glowing. Now I just obviously must brush my teeth and wash my face. So, I think for me that’s the biggest advantage.” Tai also shared that she loves the boost of confidence it gives her: “It also improves over time, it’s skin deep. That’s why I think Glow On is a game changer. It shortens my prep time and boosts my confidence.”

But the glow doesn’t stop at the clinic—it’s only the beginning. To truly lock in and extend the benefits of your treatment, aftercare is essential. Galderma recommends Cetaphil Bright Healthy Radiance as the perfect partner for post-treatment skin. The Cetaphil Bright Healthy Radiance Day Protection Cream and Night Comfort Cream not only brighten but also help restore and strengthen the skin barrier through GentleBright Technology—a proprietary blend of niacinamide and sea daffodil. “Aftercare is just as important as the treatment itself. It’s what transforms a one-time glow into lasting radiance, day after day,” says Rhizza Mae Concepcion, Cetaphil Bright Healthy Radiance Brand Manager.

Glowing skin is more than appearance; it's a reflection of how you feel, how you connect with yourself, and the journey you embrace. Your glow begins here.

Kenny Rogers Roasters Celebrates

30 Years of Flavorful Legacy

Kenny Rogers Roasters is renowned for serving “deliciously healthy” meals and is proudly celebrating its 30th anniversary—a remarkable feat in a fast-paced, trend-driven industry where longevity is a true badge of success. Since 1995, the brand has grown into the country’s leading fast-casual restaurant, with over 150 stores nationwide. Known for its signature roasted chicken, hearty sides, and exciting food innovations, Kenny Rogers Roasters has redefined how Filipinos enjoy wholesome meals—proving that true greatness only gets better with time.

Redefined What Healthy Tastes Like

For the past 30 years, Kenny Rogers Roasters has redefined what healthy tastes like by offering wholesome, flavorful meals in a fast-casual setting. Known for its Classic Roasted Chicken—tender, juicy chicken slow-roasted to perfection—the brand has become a staple in Filipino households.

Kenny Rogers Roasters also offers a well-rounded menu that balances indulgence and nutrition, featuring staples like the fall of the bone ribs, Healthy Plates and Salad—complete with calorie counts to give customers greater transparency and control over their meals. Complementing its main dishes are a variety of comforting side options that have become fan favorites over the years, including the iconic corn muffin, mac and cheese, and steamed vegetables.

These thoughtfully crafted combinations reflect the brand’s enduring commitment to making deliciously healthy food both satisfying and accessible to all.

Kenny Rogers Roasters continues to innovate with bold, globally inspired flavors that excite the palate while staying true to its healthy roots. Limited-time offerings such as the Four Cheese Roast, Great Garlic Roast, Truffle Roast, and Chimichurri Roast have added variety and excitement to the menu, proving that nutritious food can also be indulgent and crave-worthy. By staying ahead of trends and listening to what customers want, Kenny Rogers Roasters has solidified its reputation as a trailblazer in the industry—one that leads with purpose and flavor.

“I Love Me Better”: The Campaign that Marks Legacy

To celebrate its 30th year, Kenny Rogers Roasters is launching its most personal and empowering campaign yet: “I Love Me Better.” The brand recognizes that choosing better for yourself—especially when it comes to food—takes intention and courage. This campaign champions self-love through mindful eating, reminding everyone that even small decisions, like opting for healthier meals, can be powerful acts of self-care.

Marketing Director Lorent Martin Adrias explains that Kenny Rogers Roasters is for those who believe every better choice matters. “Sometimes, better choices start with something as simple as choosing better meals for yourself. When we choose healthier, better meals, we’re not just fueling our bodies but embracing self-love,” he says. “Choosing Kenny Rogers Roasters is more than a meal decision—it’s a commitment to loving yourself better.”

Reflecting this bold message, the “I Love Me Better” campaign took over high-traffic, unexpected spaces—from a full train wrap on LRT-1 and bus wraps in BGC to bike boards and inspiring billboards along EDSA. Each placement carried messages of self-love and empowerment, turning everyday commutes into bold reminders to choose better. The campaign also introduced a new, feel-good jingle now streaming on Spotify, extending the message through music.

For three decades, Kenny Rogers Roasters has led with purpose—redefining what deliciously healthy means while influencing communities through innovation and impact. “The legacy of Kenny Rogers Roasters is unmatched,” Adrias concludes. “And the future is set to raise the bar even higher.”

Frederick Siy, President and CEO of Kenny Rogers Roasters, concluded, “We’re not just looking back at 30 years of success—we’re showing what enduring excellence truly means. Kenny Rogers Roasters has stood the test of time by continuously evolving to cater to our consumers’ needs. As we move ahead, we remain committed to serving food that’s both delicious and healthy.”
