Dania Ramirez Talks Motherhood And Twins In Glam Belleza Latina
Ramirez on returning to work after giving birth to her twins: “I began working again about two and a half weeks after I had them. Devious Maids went back to filming sooner than planned. When I got the news, I was in the hospital just crying, overwhelmed. But now I think it was really good for me. I didn’t have time to plan anything. It allowed me to be in the moment.”
Ramirez on getting back into shape after having twins: “My character was not pregnant, so I had to make sure that I started looking close to how I did before the pregnancy. Maybe it’s because I played sports my whole life, but I’m used to following a schedule as far as my eating habits…. I stuck with mostly fruits and vegetables right after I gave birth. I wanted to get accustomed to eating really healthfully and to having smaller portions throughout the day. Also, I like to feel healthy. I know that when I’m looking better and I’m eating right, I also feel better.”
Ramirez on how her beauty routine has changed as a new mom: “I have less time, but certain things remain the same. For instance, I still always take my makeup off, no matter how tired I am. The babies are teething and waking up at night, so I use my MAC wipes as a shortcut. In the mornings I try to find time to use my Clarisonic brush. Being able to really clean my pores has changed my skin completely…. I used to take the time to contour my skin perfectly, but now I just even it out quickly with foundation and then add a little bronzer on my cheeks.”
