Traveling and maintaining a beauty regimen can be a difficult task, but airplane skincare is essential to keeping a glowing and moisturized face. SKINNEY Medspa was recently featured in the article “10 Ways To Get Gorgeous Skin When You Fly,” on Huda Beauty’s website. The beauty company shares tips on how to preserve your skin from top skincare gurus.
Airplane skincare can often seem like a hassle, but it is much easier when you prepare a travel kit. With this at hand, you are more likely to keep up with your skincare routine. Keeping a moisturizer nearby might be the most important airplane skincare product. Professionals say people with oily skin and the stress of traveling can cause breakouts. Although it may be hard to pack every medication/product with you, keeping up with your daily routine as much as possible, is important to avoid unwanted breakouts..
Avoid Feeling Dry As You Fly
Airplane skincare products are essential and choosing the right ones are critical. Adriana Martino is a co-founder of SKINNEY Medspa in NYC. She says lips can take a beating, as we are up high in the sky. Grabbing any lip balm could potentially dehydrate your lips faster. Martino says she uses Smith’s Rosebud Salve, only $7.50, to keep her lips from being chapped. “It also has a great hint of color – perfect to apply on a flight, pre-workout, or running around without makeup, said Martino.” The chap stick, which is said to be very moisturizing, can also be used to soften cuticles, cure itchy areas, and treat dry elbows and knees.

It is important to not forget about your hands! Professionals say the water in airplane bathrooms is not very hydrating. Be sure to moisturize every time you wash your hands. In your airplane skincare kit, make sure to pack a sunscreen, especially if you are sitting by a window. Sun exposure is stronger at higher altitudes, which could cause skin damage down the road.
As you sit back and wait to land at your final destination, applying an eye cream is never a bad idea. Experts advocate for these products because the eyelid is so delicate…and while you fly, a little extra care never hurt.
Airplane TLC
Confidently putting on a facemask on the plane, will do your face wonders. Professionals say your face will benefit more from using a sheet mask, but wait until the end of your flight to apply it.
Getting on a plane without makeup might sound a little scary, but it is the best option to keep your face clear and moisturized. Obviously, airplane skincare is nothing without staying hydrated, so drink as much water as possible. Skincare gurus also avoid ordering food on the plane, because it can be high in sodium, leading to a puffy face.
