By the time the day is done—sunscreen, pollution, sweat, a little makeup—your face is wearing a thin film that clogs pores and dulls your glow. Add AC‑flattened, frizz‑prone ends and you’ve got the classic “why do I look tired?” problem. You don’t need 12 steps. You need a tight, three‑piece night circuit that a) melts the film without a fight, b) repairs the skin barrier while you sleep, and c) protects mid‑lengths and ends from pillow friction so you wake up soft, not strawy. Here’s a clean, calm, gloss routine that works in Philippine humidity and AC.

Step 1 — Melt the Day (Zero‑Tug Balm Cleanse)

Start on a truly clean slate. Apply the cushiony balm BIORÉ Home de Esthetic Makeup Remover 200g to a dry face and massage for ~45–60 seconds to dissolve long‑wear sunscreen, city film, and makeup. Add a little water to emulsify into a milky texture, then rinse. Because BIORÉ Home de Esthetic Makeup Remover 200g does the heavy lifting without tugging, you avoid the micro‑irritation that often leads to redness, rebound oil, and patchy makeup the next day. If you wore very heavy sunscreen or foundation, follow with a gentle water‑based wash—but most nights, the balm + thorough rinse is enough.

Step 2 — Rebuild the Barrier (Ceramide Flood, 2–4×/week)

A clean face is only halfway there; you need to put back what the day took out. Enter a ceramide‑saturated sheet mask: QUALITY 1st Derma Laser Ceramide 100 7 Sheets. After cleansing, press out excess water with a towel and apply one sheet for 10–15 minutes (no longer—ceramides don’t need marathon sessions). The essence in QUALITY 1st Derma Laser Ceramide 100 7 Sheets helps replenish lipids that make up your moisture barrier, reducing that tight, papery feeling AC and UV can trigger and cutting down the “greasy by noon” rebound cycle. Remove, then press in the leftover essence—face, neck, even chest—for a uniform, bouncy surface.

Usage cadence: 2–4 times per week (Philippine climate guide)—lean closer to 4× during aggressive AC weeks or after beach days; scale down to 2× if skin feels springy. If you’re using retinoids or strong exfoliants, alternate nights (do not stack a strong acid + ceramide mask + retinoid in one go; that’s how irritation sneaks in).

Step 3 — Gloss and Guard (Friction‑Proof Mid‑Lengths & Ends)

Pillow friction is a silent hair saboteur—especially when ends are dehydrated from sun + AC. Smooth one to two pumps of the featherlight leave‑in ORBIS Essence in Hair Milk 140g through damp or dry mid‑lengths and ends before bed. The milky texture in ORBIS Essence in Hair Milk 140g adds slip and soft gloss without a greasy film, so hair glides over your pillowcase instead of catching and frizzing. Bonus: in the morning, use half a pump to tame flyaways and refresh tips—your blowout lasts longer, and air‑dry days look intentional.

Cadence & Climate Notes (PH‑Smart)

• Humid nights: Keep balm time steady; you’re melting film, not stripping. If you’re extra sweaty, do a quick water‑based wash after the balm.
• Heavy AC weeks: Mask with QUALITY 1st Derma Laser Ceramide 100 7 Sheets 3–4× until tightness resolves, then drop to maintenance.
• Hair SOS: Add a silk/satin pillowcase to reduce breakage; still use ORBIS Essence in Hair Milk 140g—it’s the anti‑frizz insurance.
