Elisse Joson on balancing motherhood and self care
Kapamilya actress Elisse Joson is embracing a new chapter in her life — as a mother to her three-year-old daughter Felize with actor McCoy de Leon. Despite the demands of motherhood, however, Joson continues to prioritize her skincare routine and overall wellness.At her grand reveal as the face of New Moon, a premium health and beauty supplement brand, Joson emphasized that inner wellness is more challenging to maintain than outer beauty. "It still feel like this phase in my life is fairly new. Being a mother and navigating this new role is still something I am getting used to. So maintaining beauty as a mother is not as easy as it looks. You might not notice it from the outside, but being a mother means experiencing extreme highs and lows. What we often see are the celebratory highs of life," Joson explained."Naturally, beauty will shine through when you are happy inside. It's more about how you feel within," she continued.At 28, it's hard to tell that she's a mother juggling her own business, motherhood, and a showbiz career. This is why New Moon chose Joson as the face of their brand."Personally, I'm a mother and a business owner, and we share the same experiences. From what I see on Elisse's social media, she enjoys motherhood more than anything else. That is something I can relate to," Jonah Sison-Ramos, CEO and founder of New Moon."With New Moon, it's about embracing the new you and accepting every phase of your life. Elisse is doing a fantastic job balancing activities and work. She's an actress, a business owner, and a mom. It's very hard to juggle all these roles simultaneously, but Elisse has become even more beautiful since becoming a mom," she added.New Moon joins the health and beauty supplement market with its S-Acetyl Glutathione product, Soft Glow. This supplement combines Vitamins C, D, and E, Collagen, Zinc, oral sunblock, and rosehip into one formula, promoting detoxification, boosting the immune system, and enhancing skin health.Soft Glow aims to provide a radiant complexion and even skin tone by nourishing the body with essential nutrients. Unlike other glutathione supplements, Soft Glow is designed for fast absorption without causing stomach discomfort. Made with high-quality ingredients, this advanced European formula, now produced in the Philippines, promises a healthy glow from within. Thrilled to be the face of New Moon's Soft Glow, Joson said, "I have been using Soft Glow for a month now. Even in less than a month, I've noticed changes. My sleep patterns have improved, and I find it easier to fall asleep at night. My energy levels are higher, making me more productive throughout the day.""We all have our skincare routines, from cleansing to moisturizing, but sometimes what truly matters is how we take care of ourselves internally. With Soft Glow, even if I miss a couple of steps in my skincare routine, as long as I'm taking these capsules regularly, I feel good to go. Juggling work, motherhood, and taping leaves me with little time, so I keep it simple with a one-step skincare routine," she added.Meanwhile, when asked what has changed since becoming a mom, Joson said, "After becoming a mom, I've noticed I have fewer emotional outbursts. When I do feel upset, there's usually a reason behind it, and I manage it more rationally than I did before."To manage tough days, Joson ensures she takes time off saying, "I don't force myself to do anything on those days. I give myself time to process and embrace the feelings or challenges. By the next day, I feel a bit better and ready to tackle the day."Finally, asked about marriage plans, Joson remains optimistic but patient."I think it's going to happen when the timing is right. I'm praying that the right opportunity and the right time for it will come," Joson said.
