​

The Legaspis Zoren, Carmina, Mavy, and Cassy have shared many significant family moments with the public, leading to comments on their seemingly ageless appearance, even humorously being labeled as having “vampire genes.” However, their youthful looks are not just due to genetics but also their dedication to skincare, Dr. Kaycee Reyes particularly through their long-term relationship with Doc Kaycee and Luminisce, which started in 2015.

 

Carmina initially sought Doc Kaycee's help for Mavy's severe acne, which other treatments had failed to improve.
