I'm always so excited to catch a plane home for some family time! I have to be sure I'm fully prepared for the trip though, especially because flying tends to completely screw with your skin. Have you noticed that no one looks runway ready when stepping off a plane? High altitude means DRY and dry means dehydration namely, for your skin.
When flying you have a lot to tackle with that you may not have thought of as aggressors to your skin before. Other than the dryness from altitude, being crammed in a tiny space means there are a lot of germs and bacteria floating around. Disgusting, I know. So here are your in-flight skin saving tips:
Wash your face! Remove all makeup, dirt and oil. This may not be glamorous but freeing your skin from all of the above will help prevent clogged pores and added inflammation to the skin. Often times breakouts occur after flights because
1.) (Not sure why the 1. got cut off, but you get the idea) Aveda's Instensive Hydrating Masque to put back the moisture lost from the plane ride. 2.) Kiehl's In-Flight Refreshing Facial Mist is travel friendly so you can spritz your face before and after your flight to keep your face hydrated and balanced. Check your local Kiehl's store for this product. 3.) Stila's Ready for Takeoff Moisturizing Cleansing Cloths not only has an adorable name, but is perfect for removing make-up before your flight. 4.) Drinking water is the best thing to do to keep skin hydrated. When your flight attendant comes by to get your drink order, request that H2O!
