It was Coco Chanel who said that simplicity is the keynote of all true elegance—precisely the impression business woman Crickette Tantoco left us with when we had the chance to sit down with her at the launch of Olay Conversations. Like her fellow brand ambassadors, Crickette also has a webisode—an intimate conversation—with host Boy Abunda, which will be available for viewing on March 17 on olay.com.ph. "Boy is actually very credible interviewer, so he makes you very comfortable. The tendency is to open up to him," says Crickette.

But while we're sure Tito Boy did a fabulous job, we still couldn't resist asking the lovely mom questions of our own, so we asked her to spill some of her beauty secrets. Below are some of her trademark beauty tips:

1. "You don’t have to buy expensive makeup remover. The best makeup remover is baby oil."

2. "When you have rough soles or dry feet, the best thing for that is petroleum jelly."

3. "If you put petroleum jelly on your lashes, you also keep it long."

4. "If you are in a bind, and you don’t have a lot of makeup, or if you have a very small evening bag, the best thing to bring is a lip gloss. You can dab it on your cheeks, and on your lips."

5. "You can use [lip gloss] as glitter in the middle of your eye."
