You're looking forward to your vacay but you're not too pumped about the inevitable skin issues that come with flying. We feel you. With about half as much humidity on the plane as our skin is used to, our complexions often feel dragged down mid-flight. What's more, when skin gets super dry, it compensates by producing more sebum, which means shine-city come landing. However, with some advanced planning and expert packing, you can ensure that your skin is well prepared to battle the effects of plane travel. By arming yourself with moisturizers, facial sprays, sunscreen, lip balm, face masks and more, you might just even find that your skin looks even better than when you stepped on the plane.
To help you achieve the glowing, hydrated, vacation-ready skin of your dreams, here are 18 beauty products perfect for a mid-flight skin fix. Bon voyage!
Upgrade your skin from coach to first class with this superior skin hydrator. Designed to steep skin cells in a nourishing mix of vitamins, ceramides, antioxidants and gentle exfoliating extracts, this one-of-a-kind hydrating cream face mask can be rinsed off or left on for next-level hydration as you drift through the clouds.
The higher up in the sky you are, the more your skin is subjected to the sun's harmful UV rays — yup, even despite those ultra-thick airplane windows. To keep your skin protected mid-flight, be sure to stow a tube of this invisible sunscreen in your bag. Not only will it protect skin, but it will also help blur the appearance of pores, fine lines and wrinkles.
