Skin Care for Planes

Actually - that title doesn't sound right... I meant, skincare for you, on a plane. Not skincare for a plane.

Anyway. The restrictions on liquids on airplanes mean that you're only able to bring small amounts of everything -which is a good thing - less to spill! But it does mean you need to think about what you're going to need.

The air is dry up there - so moisturize, moisturize, moisturize! And spritz - I love the Grace Anti-Oxidant Spray from TheSpaGoddess - It smells amazing and you can feel your skin saying thank you.
She also has a fab mini kit available - which is the perfect size for traveling, and will sort all your skin care needs - and includes the toner
Lip balm is another essential - but don't get anything with menthol as it'll actually dry your lips out more - I love the look and sound of this one -I've not tried it, but judging by the feedback, it's good stuff! If I had more time I'd be ordering it - it has a touch of colour too - so no need for lipstick :)

Neptune's Kiss Sheer Merlot Lip Butter

And now that we're on the subject of make up - I really don't recommend it while flying. Mascara's only going to irritate your already dry eyes, and you'll have panda rings if you do manage to catch a nap. Not the best look really.

If you absolutely cannot got without - use a tinted lip balm and a mineral veil - personally I love Afterglow Mineral Veil from MixologyMakeup


It's really, really light, won't clog up your pores and gives a gorgeous dewy look to your skin.
