The story of Johanna Micaela Duyag
On weekends, while most students catch up on sleep or scroll endlessly on their phones, Johanna Michaela Duyag spends her days under studio lights, practicing camera angles, and perfecting her beauty routines. At just 20 years old, this Quezon City University student is not only thriving in her Entrepreneurship degree but also carving a name for herself in the beauty industry as L’Oréal Digital Beauty Academy’s valedictorian and a rising social media influencer.
“I’ve always been passionate about beauty and modeling,” Johanna tells Manila Bulletin Lifestyle, her eyes lighting up as she recalls the moment she was chosen to join the academy.
