As much as we love all of the experiences that come with being able to travel to new places, we don’t love the way our skin feels after hours on a flight. Airplane cabins are notorious for having dry, stuffy air, due largely to the fact that about 50% of the air inside is recycled and that plane air typically has very low humidity levels. As a result, our skin is left feeling dull, dry, and in need of a little TLC.
Fortunately, throughout all of our travels, we’ve discovered a couple of go-to products that we know we can count on to replenish our skin and provide it with all of the nourishment it craves once we’ve arrived at our destination. If you can relate, give them a try.
Summer Fridays Jet Lag Mask
This mask is one of our favorites even when we’re not traveling, but it’s one of the best products we’ve found for replenishing our skin after long, dry flights, and you’ll never catch us going anywhere without it. It’s formulated with clean ingredients and can also help fight uneven skin tone and wrinkles.
Foreo Bear Mini
For salon-level results without the salon price tag, we love the Foreo Bear Mini Microcurrent Toning Device. It’s a bit of an investment at $165, but it makes a noticeable difference in the skin’s elasticity and clarity by providing a gentle massage to improve circulation. If you travel often, it’s definitely worth it. You could even try putting it in the refrigerator before you fly!
Caudalie Grape Water Moisturizing Face Mist
Face mists are a great way to provide your skin with a little nourishment and prevent it from becoming too dry during your flight. The Grape Water mist by French beauty brand Caudalie is one of our go-tos for its clean ingredients, and the mini-size is perfect to throw into any carry-on.
