Traveling takes a toll on your skin, and that’s not new news. Stay one step ahead of your skin problems by packing skincare must-haves into your travel bag. Afterall, a travel glow is always welcome in your touristy pictures.
Parched lips and flaky skin can appear when we visit countries with a dry environment. Hydrating serums are a great addition to your skincare routine as they prevent your skin from looking dull without feeling heavy on your face.
For that extra boost, oil-based products may be worth a shot as they typically contain more lipids and work to balance your skin’s natural oil levels in the long run. If you’ve always ditched oil-serums due to the icky residue they leave on your skin, this hydrating face treatment oil from Clarins will change your mind. Perfect for those with dry skin, the Omega 9 and Vitamin E present in this product work together to stimulate collagen production and prevent moisture loss from your skin barrier.
But, if you’re not keen on lugging around a bottle of oil that may spill in transit, opt for products that are in solid or gel form. Cleansing balms are a gentle option for sensitive skin and can double up as a cleanser and makeup remover. They’re also easy to use! A small dollop warms up into a malleable oil that easily applies all over your face. Another handy skincare item is a powdered face wash, which is a familiar concept to Japanese beauty fans. All you need is a bit of clean water and you’ll get the perfect amount of face wash in your palm.
Have you ever experienced a sudden change in skin texture while traveling? Perhaps, your once normal-dry skin suddenly turned oily and you’re getting adult acne. Or, your post-flight skin suddenly feels a lot rougher than before.
Save yourself from panicking by packing a few sheets of soothing masks and a deep cleansing tool. For the sheet masks, try looking for ones that contain calming ingredients like centella asiatica, saffron flower extract or aloe vera. Portable electric cleansers from Foreo and Braun will ensure that your pores are squeaky clean even after a 13-hour flight.
