November 1st at Manila North Cemetery under scorching sun. December bus rides to the province with no AC. Media Noche makeup that lasts until 4am. Filipino holidays are beautiful chaos for family, brutal assault on skin. Between cemetery dust, provincial sun exposure, and endless fiesta makeup, your face needs a survival plan that actually works in our weather. Here's your Undas-to-New-Year skin recovery protocol.

Post-Undas: Remove the dust layer gently (November recovery)

Cemetery visits mean hours of dust, incense smoke, and melted candle residue mixing with sweat and sunscreen. Use CURE White Clear Gel Exfoliator 200g once that week to lift the buildup without aggravating sun-stressed skin. Apply to clean, towel-dried face, massage until it balls up (that's the dead skin and dust), then rinse. The gentle water-activated formula of CURE White Clear Gel Exfoliator 200g removes the grime layer without the harsh beads that would inflame already sun-exposed skin.

Province sun damage control (December healing)

Those "quick" trike rides to Lola's house with no shade? The unexpected beach side trip? Your skin remembers every UV ray. Deploy QUALITY 1st Derma Laser Super VC 100 7 Sheets three times weekly through December. Apply for 10-15 minutes after cleansing—the high-dose Vitamin C in QUALITY 1st Derma Laser Super VC 100 7 Sheets helps reverse sun damage and prevents the dark spots from becoming permanent souvenirs. Pro tip: keep them in Lola's refrigerator for cooling relief after day trips.

Fiesta freshness that lasts (December-January marathons)

Simbang Gabi at 4am. Christmas parties every night. New Year's Eve that becomes New Year's morning. You need all-day confidence. DEONATULLE Anti-Perspirant Deodorant Cream 60g is your secret weapon—one application before getting dressed lasts through church, lunch at Tita's, and dancing at the reunion. The Japanese formula of DEONATULLE Anti-Perspirant Deodorant Cream 60g creates an invisible barrier that survives Filipino humidity and endless hugs from relatives.
