Travel Plans? 6 Tips for Keeping Your Skin Happy and Healthy
While travel can do wonders for the mind and soul, it tends to wreak havoc on our skin—but it doesn’t have to. With summer vacation plans quickly approaching, we put together six tips for ensuring your skin stays healthy, hydrated, and glowing during (and long after) your next getaway.
Don’t Skimp on Moisturizer
Airplane air can seriously dry out skin, but applying a nourishing moisturizer like our Calendula Essential Hydrating Cream or Marshmallow & Microalgae Sensitivity Soothing Crème before and during your flight will keep it nice and hydrated. For even deeper moisture, lock it all in with our Carrot Seed Soothing Facial Oil.
Use a Hydrating Face Mask
Long haul travel days present the perfect opportunity for some on-the-go pampering, if you ask us! Apply a generous layer of our Aloe Vera Replenishing Gel Mask and let it fully absorb for supple, bouncy skin upon arrival.
Apply (and Reapply!) SPF
Airplane windows aren’t very effective at blocking UVA rays, so frequent SPF application is crucial for protecting your skin during a flight. Our Calendula Essential Hydrating Lotion SPF 30 and Lavender Protective Moisturizer SPF 17 provide broad-spectrum protection with a healthy dose of hydration. Pro tip? Book yourself a window seat so you can control the shade.
Exfoliate, Exfoliate, Exfoliate!
A long day of travel can lead to buildup of dirt and impurities; slough it all away with a gentle face polish like the Oat Cleansing Facial Polish to reveal a smooth, refreshed complexion.
Don’t Forget Your Minis
Travel is already stressful on our skin, so pack minis of your favorite products to ensure your routine doesn’t stray too far from the norm. Our Skincare Starter Set has your essential four-step routine covered.
Keep Your Cool with Aromatherapy
Less stress = happy skin, and our aromatherapy oils can help! Rub a drop or two of our Chill Aromatic Alchemy on your wrists to keep the calm vibes strong, turbulence and all. (Trust us, your seatmate will thank you.)
