Introduction
Holiday travel is exciting—but not for your skin. Changes in climate, cabin air, and inconsistent routines can leave your complexion dehydrated, dull, or irritated. Here’s how to keep your skincare on point while you’re on the move.
Pre-Trip Prep: Strengthen Your Skin Barrier
Start hydrating deeply a few days before your trip. Use ceramides, niacinamide, and occlusive creams to build resilience.
In-Flight Skincare Routine
- Cleanse before boarding
- Apply a hydrating serum + moisturizer
- Use a facial mist every 2–3 hours
- Avoid heavy makeup—go for bare skin or light coverage
Pack TSA-Friendly Essentials
Travel-size versions of your daily routine. Don’t forget:
- Cream cleanser
- HA serum
- Moisturizer
- Lip balm
- SPF
- Sheet masks or overnight mask
After-Travel Recovery Plan
Once home (or arrived), exfoliate gently to remove buildup, then restore hydration with masks and barrier creams.
