I admit I wish I lived more of a Jetsetter lifestyle but I manage to take a few flights a year. Air travel can wreak havoc on your skin and cause dryness. I have put together a few of my favorite tips and tricks to ensure you reach your destination feeling as fresh and radiant as possible. First, always remember to hydrate yourself. Drink plenty of water and although alcoholic beverages are enjoyable save them for your destination. Alcohol will only dehydrate you further and not help in the least with jet lag. So drink plenty of water before during and after the flight. Secondly, if you can go makeup free that is always the best to let your skin breathe. I am not a makeup free girl so I use my mineral powder foundation and a swipe of mascara and my Nuxe Reve de Miel lip balm. Minimal is key as you can always touch up before touch down. I also use a very hydrating cream under my make up and I suggest bringing it along. It is from Caudalie's. It is their Vinosource SOS Thirst-Quenching Serum. It's great at quenching even the driest skin and ensures that your face is radiant and not prune like. I love my Weleda hand lotion. It's rich creamy formula controls ragged cuticles and dry nails. It has a nice herbal aroma that is a real pick me up during long flights. I always make sure to grab a few packets of Emergen-C and add them to plain water. It gives me bit more Vitamin C for the close quarters of the cabin. Mints are always a plus and appreciated by fellow passengers. :) I also pack a few protein rich snacks as well. Nut based and filling. Balance bars work well and are very yummy as an in between or a meal replacement. These are just a few of my favorite in flight tips. I will also elaborate on some drugstore finds and CVS store favorites. Stay tuned.
More fantastic tips!
