HYDRATION!!!!
Hydration is key to keeping your skin happy while travelling. Prep your skin a few weeks prior to your trip by using a hydrating serum each morning, followed by a spritz of hydrating toner and then seal it with a moisture rich moisturiser. This will prepare your skin for the long flights ahead and give it the extra moisture it will need. I have also been given a Clarins Beauty Flash Balm mask to us a week before my flight as well as during and after, I was told that flight attendants use this product a lot during long-haulflights as well.
On the flight I recommend wearing no make-up, wearing make-up will only stress your skin out more than it already will be from being up in high altitude with little fresh air. Just before your flight apply an anti-ozonate hydrating spritz toner and then spread an even layer of a lipid based multi-vitamin complex over your skin - defending your skin from any environmental stress. Lastly, apply a silicone based moisturising gel over your face to form a protective barrier for your skin. Bringing a moisturising lip balm on flight will definitely not go astray either!
After your flight is over apply some type of hydrating mask to restore the skin and then apply your hydrating spritz toner once again, sealing it with your super-charged moisturiser.
For the hydrating serum and toner I'm using the brand Sukin; they're natural and alcohol-free which is what you should be looking for when in search of beauty products, and isn't too expensive either.
When packing your carry-on skin products also keep in mind the restrictions that will be set for you.
- All liquids, aerosol and gel are to be in containers of 100mls - if the container is any bigger, even if the substance in it is only 100mls or less you will be asked to throw it out before boarding.
- All containers must be carried in a transparent plastic bag (e.g. sandwich bag or travel board set)
- That said bag must add up to 80cm all together, no bigger (e.g. 20cm x 20cm)
