For 55-year-old, Riza
Oben Dormiendo, joining beauty pageants is no joke and takes a lot of
courage. A native of Taguig, Dormiento snagged
the Mrs. Philippines International Face of Beauty 2019-2020 title last December
2019. “Winning one of the titles is one of my greatest achievements, which carries
a big responsibility. Through this title, I will use my voice to enlighten
married women that we are all beautiful in our own different ways and that we
can be fit and healthy and maintain our beautiful body by joining activities
that will boost our confidence,” she said.
Riza admires Gloria
Diaz, Margie Moran and Pia Wurtzbach for showing the world how beautiful and
confident Filipinas are. I look to them
as inspiration to continue to be an advocate of beauty for married women. I
would advise married women who would join beauty pageants to face their
imperfections, build their confidence and be passionate with all the things
that challenges them.
Riza is grateful to
the Maan Cueto Aris, national director of Mrs. Philippines International beauty
pageant and Aries Concepcion of Glamore Productions for giving married women,
like her, the opportunity to achieve their dream to become beauty queens. Riza
will compete at the 9th edition of Face of Beauty International pageant.
Reigning Face of Beauty International 2019 Peerachada Khunrak of Thailand will
relinquish her title.
