Cosmopolitan Philippines invites Cosmo Girls everywhere to embrace the hottest time of the year with its Summer and Swimsuit special issue.

A Cosmo Girl’s ultimate summer goal this month? Taking a cue from March cover girl, Yassi Pressman. Not only is she a fitspiration with her beach-Insta ready body that needs no filter, she is also an inspiration to those who aspire to make it big in the entertainment industry. Cosmo March issue’s sassy, sexy, summer star shares her inspiring story: From a struggling dancer always told that she’ll never be a star, she’s now become a bona fide princess of the dance floor. 

Yassi started acting at the tender age of 5, and modeling at age 6. Today, the Filipino-British actress-dancer-singer hosts a TV singing competition show, Born To Be a Star—four words that definitely describe her perfectly. She recently landed her very first lead role in the film Girlfriend For Hire, with love team partner Andre Paras, who is this month’s Cosmo Guy.

Cosmopolitan’s Summer and Swimsuit special issue also features the best ways to maintain perfect skin despite the scorching hot weather, with “Sex(y) On The Beach,” “So You Got a Sunburn?” and “Sunscreen Myths.” Also inside: read more about “The Art of Sex Appeal” and in honor of Women’s Month, “The Cosmo Girl’s Guide to Feminism” explores the true meaning of Pinay #girlpower. 

Cosmo kicked off the summer festivities and launched its March issue with the first-ever Cosmo Summer Party on March 19 at The Palace Pool Club , where over a thousand Cosmo girls, Cosmo hunks, and 8 Sexiest Models, and industry insiders had a sizzling afternoon filled with fun and flirty games. 

Mich Lagdameo Roque, managing editor of Cosmopolitan said, "There's no better way to ring in the hottest time of the year and celebrate our summer and swimsuit special than with a party at one of the metro's most sizzling party spot--and with our latest and greatest Bachelors, to boot! We hope all the Cosmo girls enjoyed the event as much as we did!”
