Forgive us for our honesty, but you have to admit—no loveteam matters more on this faithful Friday than the blissful comeback of Sharon Cuneta and Gabby Concepcion. Starring in McDonald's Philippines' Valentine's Day ad, the '80s OG loveteam served us a huge helping of fries, fried chicken, and a whole lot of butterflies.
We're assuming that by now you've read everyone's wild reactions about the ad on your Facebook timeline. So this time, let's zoom in on what happened behind the scenes. Below, Preview talks to the Megastar's glam team for a glimpse into this epic reunion.
Indeed, this was no ordinary commercial shoot, and the proof lies in how stunning Sharon was in the ad reel. According to one of her stylists, Qurator's Maita Baello, the megastar was wearing a custom navy two-piece ensemble by her go-to designer Jot Losa. The look was smart casual, she adds, but nothing too stiff or dark since the commercial was set at night.

"Since all of her scenes are sitting down, we [Maita and co-stylist Melville Sy] opted for a V-neck top to show a bit of skin," says the stylist. "This is more flattering for her especially since the top already has long sleeves. There's some ruching as well, just so it [won't] look flat or too casual." Maita adds that Sharon also wore her own diamond earrings for the shoot.
Meanwhile, hairstylist Jeff Aromin was in charge of keeping Sharon's hair as silky as possible. It was parted a little off-center to frame her face properly for scenes where she had to look down. Her locks looked effortlessly flawless, to say the least!
We loved her makeup, too, which was the work of makeup artist Juan Sarte. The soft brown smokey eye made those stolen glances extra adorable yet glam at the same time, while her glossy nude lips did the exact same thing for her shy smiles.

That said, we also couldn't help but wonder what it was like to be on set with the two. Luckily, Maita satisfied our curiosity, sharing, "One word: Kilig! Their chemistry is undeniable that even the crew and customers couldn't help but tease them when they took a selfie together."
