10 In-Flight Skincare Essentials
Traveling by plane surprisingly can dehydrate your skin due to the low humidity on airplanes. I don’t know about you but I don’t want to get to my desired destination with dry skin! So, how do we fix that? Having the correct products during a flight is essential for the health of your skin. Here is what you should bring to have your skin glowing during your whole flight experience.
Start with these 3 products before you take off:
1. Remove your makeup - It’s important to remove your makeup to let your skin breath in flight. This cleansing balm is perfect for just that.
2. Double cleanse your skin with the Wipeys Face wipe. This makes sure your skin is completely free of makeup. The Rose essential Oil in the wipe has deeply nourishing properties that can help propel your skin to the picture of health. Replenishing your skin with this Essential Oil can help to leave your complexion appearing bouncier, brighter and more luminous.
3. Next, apply oil to your face. This organic jojoba face oil with natural vitamin E deeply nourishes the skin. The multipurpose face oil has balancing properties and is perfect for most skin types. Jojoba oil hydrates dry skin and helps regulate sebum production of oily skin while soothing sensitivity or inflammation.
Use these 3 products while in flight:
4. Apply a face mask - Pack in the hydration with Dr. Nigma Talib's biocellulose 'Treatment Mask' is infused with powerful ingredients that visibly plump and restore skin. A blend of Prebiotics and Marine Collagen promote elasticity, while Hyaluronic Acid and Edelweiss and Seaweed extracts are absorbed deeply to brighten and reduce the appearance of fine lines.
5. Face Roll - Face-rolling tools are typically made from jade, rose quartz or other crystals, and are designed to be used to gently massage the face and stimulate the lymphatic system to decrease puffiness, ease tension and stimulate blood flow to increase your skin’s glow. This is a must while in flight. You can roll over your face mask too.
6. Apply under eye masks - once you’re done with your face mask, apply under eye masks to de puff your eyes. We love these Wander Beauty's 'Baggage Claim' eye masks which are are ideal for tackling the effects of long-haul flights and tiring days. They're lined with rose gold foils that retain heat, allowing Aloe Leaf, Calendula and Camu Camu Extracts to soothe and brighten while reducing redness.
Use these 4 products before landing:
7. Hyaluronic Acid - any product with hyaluronic acid will draw water from the air and seal it into the skin. Layering on products with these ingredients will ensure your skin maintains hydration throughout the flight—especially if you’re flying a red eye. We love The Ordinary Hyaluronic acid + B5 hydrating serum.
8. Moisturize - Pack in the moisture with a collagen-boosting anti-aging cream. It will keep your skin hydrated, smooth and calam for landing!
9. Lip Balm - It’s essential to keep your lips hydrated! We love this decadent balm that nourishes dry lips with a blend of nutrient-dense butters, moisturizing oils, and soothing botanicals.
10. Lastly, don’t forget to hydrate your hands too! Cheap plane soaps can dehydrate your hands so it’s important to use lotion, especially before landing. This NÉCESSAIRE Hand cream is formulated to function like an invisible glove for your skin, protecting and defending against environmental stressors. The clean, effective cream moisturizes, nourishes and protects skin on contact.
