When the Miss FIT Philippines pageant presented the candidates vying for the title in its third edition, one aspirant stood out from the pack — Tarah Limjap from General Santos City. | diyarista
Seldom do Filipinos see a candidate like she is in local pageants, a statuesque siren glistening with strikingly dusky complexion, and sporting a full head of Afro curls. In a sea of fair-skinned maidens with flowing long hair or loose wavy locks, it was not hard to spot her at the press presentation held at Palazzo Verde in Las Piñas City on Jan. 26.
“I want to be a testament to all the young girls out there with hair and skin like mine, it is possible for us to join pageants like this, and to be confidently beautiful,” Limjap said when the Inquirer asked what she wants to achieve in the competition.
