Quick Travel Skincare Tips for Winter Flyers

Winter travel can do a number on your skin. Between cold, dry outdoor air and the recycled cabin air on flights, you're looking at dehydration, irritation, and a dull complexion fast.

But good news: with the right prep and in-flight essentials, you can keep your skin glowing at 30,000 feet. Here’s your quick go-to guide:

NIGHT BEFORE OR MORNING OF FLIGHT

DERMAL0GICA SKIN HYDRATING FACE MASK

Apply a rich gel mask before flying to lock in moisture and create a protective barrier. Your skin will thank you.

ON THE PLANE

Disinfecting Wipes
Wipe down tray tables, armrests, and seat controls. Your skin doesn’t need to battle bacteria mid-flight.

The Ordinary Buffet + Copper Peptides 1%
A peptide-rich serum that hydrates and keeps your skin elastic. Reapply every 2–3 hours for max effect.

Neutrogena Clear Face Sunscreen SPF 30
Yes, you still need SPF — especially in the sky. This one’s lightweight, oil-free, and made for sensitive skin.

Fresh Rose Floral Water Mist
A gentle, refreshing spritz that hydrates, calms, and gives a glow. Great for a mid-flight mood lift too.

The Ordinary Caffeine Serum + Visine Dry Eye Relief
Tired, puffy eyes? This combo keeps your eyes bright and soothed.

Hylamide SubQ Eyes Serum
A deeper under-eye treatment. Tap on a drop or two during the flight to fight dryness and fatigue.

PRO TIPS

Keep everything travel-sized and TSA-friendly. A small pouch with these essentials = your best beauty co-pilot.

Because dull, tight, travel skin? Not this season. Stay fresh, hydrated, and radiant wherever your passport takes you.
