Maricar Reyes is a commercial model-turned-TV actress, she played “Candy” in ABS-CBN’s series “I love Betty La Fea” as Armando’s (John Lloyd) first love. Maricar is a familiar face in television as she is the ethereal Ponds endorser. Maricar is not only a beautiful face, she is also brainy. She is a practicing Doctor and when not on television, She is attending to her regular day job as an ‘anti-aging doctor’. After doing a VTR for a fastfood company commercial, Johnny Manahan of Star Magic (a talent management handling ABS-CBN stars) saw and took keen notice of her. Prior to that, she appeared once on “ASAP ’08” and “Wowoweee.” She didn’t receive any follow-up invitation from the Kapamilya network thereafter.
A self-confessed health nut, Maricar spends at least three times a week in the gym for weight training. This, according to her, is another department in her life that she really loves. As for diets, the former Ponds commercial model stays away from junk food, even as she admits she can’t wrap up a meal without a modest, not-so-fattening dessert.

Watching her play such an important role on TV, no one would ever think this 24-year-old Ateneo B.S. Biology graduate was idle for quite some time.

“And then one day, they called me for the workshop — a weekly thing which went on for a couple of months,” she told FilAm Star in an exclusive one-on-0ne. And when the workshop was finished, “I thought that was it, until they told me about the Betty La Fea project.”

Even if she only has the Bea-John Lloyd-starrer for a regular show, this pretty talent is just as busy. With the localized international telenovela taping every Monday, Wednesday and Friday, she’s called to join in at least twice a week. And when she’s not needed in such scenes, Maricar attends to her regular day job as a medical practitioner.
“Actually, I’m still a general practitioner, since I just took the board exam last year,” she said, stopping short of divulging other details of her other profession.
Not that she doesn’t want people to know what she is off-cam, but she opts not to say too much about her eight-hour job to protect her boss, who is a private citizen anyway. Her employer, the celebrity doctor pointed out, “is very understanding about her showbiz career.”
Maricar admits show business is far different from the medical field, “but I love the contrast, I like having a different environment.”
Keeping two ‘worlds-apart’ jobs at the same time is difficult, FAS thought, but Maricar assures all and sundry that she has been able to manage her time and priorities.
“Even if there’s a late-night taping, I always condition my mind that I need to wake up on time the following morning and go to work,” she emphasized.
As an expert in the anti-aging regimen, she too, has to look good all the time. She drinks a lot of water, because “I always think and feel better when I’m hydrated.” She never misses breakfast, too, in order to survive a long and hectic workday, not to mention the cookie or candy she always has stashed in her bag and car to ease, at short notice, the slightest pang of hunger.

To say the least, Maricar is simply mind-and-body beautiful.
Maricar Reyes is now Ahron Villena’s loveteam in Precious Hearts Romances Presents: Bud Brothers.
