Soaps.com Talks with General Hospital's Rebecca Herbst! (Updated!)

Liason! (Soaps.com)
Updated on November 3

Part two of this interview with Rebecca Herbst is now live on our sister site. Click here to see what she has to say about Liason!

(As reported on October 28)

Our Soaps.com message board is usually buzzing with talk about Elizabeth Webber, and Soaps.com has finally had the opportunity to talk with the woman behind the 'Li' in 'Liason', Rebecca Herbst! The occasion? This weekend's fan event in Hemet, California at a Walmart as part of the "Shop like a Soap Star" series of appearances. Since Rebecca is the spokesperson for PURPOSE skincare products, she will be giving out samples to all of her fans! Here's what she has to say:

Soaps.com: I understand you've been using PURPOSE skincare since you were fifteen! That's impressive (from PURPOSE's standpoint)! Even after leaving your teen years behind and having two children of your own, the skin care line still works for your changing needs? Can you tell us what it is about PURPOSE that keeps you loyal to it?

Rebecca Herbst: The number one thing I love about Purpose is that is still works after 16 years. That just goes to show how simple and wonderful the Purpose products really are. They kept my skin healthy when I was in my teens, and now that I'm in my thirties it keeps me looking younger. The Dual Treatment Moisture Lotion with SPF15 really keeps my skin moisturized and protects my skin from the sun's damaging rays. The Purpose Gentle Cleansing Wash never dries out my skin because it is so gentle and soap-free, and it's still able to remove my makeup without burning my eyes! My entire family uses the whole Purpose line of products!

Soaps.com: Your skin has come up in several of my interviews with your fellow cast mates, by the way. Carolyn Henessy and Minae Noji come to mind, off hand, as two women who truly envy your fresh-faced beauty. Care to comment about that?

Rebecca Herbst: It's flattering to hear Carolyn and Minae's comments because they both have amazing, flawless skin!

Soaps.com: Since this is a Southern California appearance, will your family be coming along to meet your fans with you?

Rebecca Herbst: Hemet is about a 2 1/2 hr drive from where I live; but I'm familiar with the drive because my Great Aunt Ruth used to live there. I never bring the kids with me to appearances because I like to devote my full attention to the fans. Also, anyone who knows my kids knows they would have a show of their own going on!

Soaps.com: This time out, you'll be combining a fan event with your work on behalf of Purpose. How does that work for you?

Rebecca Herbst: I do love getting to meet fans of the show and hearing their ideas and opinions about storylines. I have really enjoyed my appearances on behalf of Purpose because I get to talk to people and have conversations rather than just the standard meet and greet.

So there you have it Elizabeth fans, the secret to her beautiful skin. If any of you get out to Hemet's Walmart this weekend, please come back to Soaps.com and give a first-person account of your experience, will you?

Sonny and Carly deserve to be together. They are meant to be!!!! Lulu and Johnny need to be together and take a vacation for a month. I cannot wait for Laura to come back to us!!! I miss her from being on this soap!!!!! Please keep her writers. You can get rid of Katie, Olivia and Alexis. Take your pick!!!! They are so boring and not very good actresses. Please hurry and have Robin and Patrick married with baby and move on to something else. Jason deserves a life. Please give it to him. Scott needs to be seen more, fighting Luke again. Jax lost out letting Carly go, oh well, I hope Sonny moves on in with that situation. Where is Bobbie!!!! Love to see Traci trying to hold on to Luke with Laura being back in the picture. Please reconsider and keep Laura with the storyline involving Luke, Traci and Scott. Let's go in a new direction with new storylines instead of Sonny, Jason, Katie and Anthony. Need new people and new storylines writes!!!!!!

Wow, she has a skin-care regime? Her skin is absolutely flawless......I love the fact that she's so down-to-earth!!!

Thanks so much for the article!!!

I have heard that she was a spokesperson for a skin product but never really paid attention. After reading this article and finding out it is a Johnson & Johnson product, I am very interested and will get some to try it out.

Who wouldn't want flawless skin like Becky's?

Thanks for the interview with Becky. She does have beautiful skin and I'm glad her co-stars think so too. Go Becky!

It's interesting about her endorsement of of Purpose but I am most grateful that you got her talking about Liason in the other half of the interview. I have the same wishes for her character to be happy and get her Man! Jason, of course!

I think that Liz and Jason should finally be together. Lucky and Sam are, why can't they be together? It's just not fair. They too should be happy and FINALLY Jason can claim Jake to be his. It will just boost the ratings and since telling a certain few about Jake's "parentage" will just make things a little bit more exciting, don't you think?

Becky is such a great actress! I love watching any scene that she is in! Would also love it if she and Jason could finally raise Jason's son together!

It is too bad that Elizabeth slept with Lucky's brother ..Nicholas. Watch out she will be pregnant with Nicholas's baby soon enough. She doesn't get a break does she. She is a sweetheart!
Keep Dominic. Too bad Sonny shoots him today, his father. Sonny does not know it untill it is too late! Lulu and Dominic need to be together, they should get married. Of course it would not be a soap opera unless she was pregnant for sleeping with Dominic first. Then there is Christine...I hate to say it but a teen pregnancy is going to happen with Keifer. He is an abusive jerk though. Carly and Jax need to stay happy. Mickeal needs to find happiness. Jason and Sam should get pregnant and a marriage around the corner. I know that since she got shot and lost the baby, she is supposed to not be able to conceive...weirder things have happened. Let it work between them. Jason needs to be happy man.
