There have been countless articles written on the subject of travel beauty, but nothing compelling enough for me \u2013 well not yet. As someone who truly travels on six and seven hour flights quite often, I can honestly say that I have my en flight kit down to a t. Part of the secret, and as Into the Gloss recently\u00a0concurred<\/a>, is the prep that you do\u00a0before<\/em>\u00a0the flight. This is how it goes (for me).<\/p>\n

AT HOME (PRE-FLIGHT)<\/p>\n

Take a real shower. Not that half-a** kind where you only wash what\u2019s necessary. No I\u2019m talking the\u00a0real<\/em>\u00a0deal. Do a full body scrub using\u00a0Earth Tu Face Salt Scrub<\/a>\u00a0on semi-dry skin.\u00a0 Wash your hair with something awesome, like\u00a0Christophe Robin\u2019s Purifying Scrub with Sea Salt<\/a>\u00a0followed by\u00a0Robin\u2019s Volumizing Conditioner<\/a>. Shave your legs. You are going to feel great, trust me. Then slap on something really nourishing like\u00a0May Lindstrom\u2019s The Good Stuff<\/a>. It\u2019s totally organic and all natural and smells like cocoa. It\u2019s my latest body addiction. I will also blow dry my hair, so that I feel prettier.<\/p>\n

BUT FIRST\u2026WIPES!<\/p>\n

The first thing that I do once I get settled in my seat is to whip out my wipes and wipe down the arm rests, the cushion area behind my head and neck and any other place that I am likely to touch. Then using\u00a0another<\/em>\u00a0clean wipe, cleanse your face, neck and hands. Simple Skincare and\u00a0Josie Maran<\/a>\u00a0both make great and inexpensive wipes. I like to make sure the wipes are clean and not filled with chemicals, because I really like to use them liberally.<\/p>\n

SKIN<\/p>\n

On a clean face, spray something. I like\u00a0SK-II\u2019s Mid-Day Essence Spray<\/a>. You get all the Japanese pitera benefits but in the easy-to-use spray form. For those of you with no shame like me, use\u00a0SK-II\u2019s Facial Treatment Mask<\/a>\u00a0and just leave it on until all of the moisture has absorbed onto your skin. When you take it off, you can just pat the product into your face, and any excess (especially around the neck) can be whipped off with your handy wipes. There really isn\u2019t anything else better. Otherwise, pop on a clear and more discrete mask like\u00a0Laurel Organics Honey Berry Enzyme Mask<\/a>\u00a0for 10-20 minutes. Wipe it off using one of your handy wipes. I also keep travel size skincare serums and moisturizes and I am always switching them up. I\u2019ll use\u00a0Tata\u2019s Serum<\/a>\u00a0and then I\u2019ll slap a pea-sized amount of\u00a0One Love Organics Wonder Balm One<\/a>. Love Organics makes a great eye cream<\/a>, and it\u2019s super nourishing and compact \u2013 making it ideal for travel. I really love that one.<\/p>\n

HAIR<\/p>\n

I like the\u00a0Tangle Tease brush<\/a>\u00a0because its super small, and it doesn\u2019t rip out my hair. So give your hair a good brush, why not. Just don\u2019t freak out your neighbor.\u00a0?<\/p>\n

HANDS<\/p>\n

I am addddicted to\u00a0Weleda\u2019s Skin Food Hautcreme\u00a0<\/a>for my hands. It\u2019s goopy and thick, so your only need a little bit. But it moisturizes like nothing else. I randomly saw it at the grocery store here in Zurich, and now I can\u2019t stop using it. I even keep one in my car.<\/p>\n

SPIRIT<\/p>\n

Bring on some essential oils. I feel essential oils are this world of their own. It\u2019s kind of like their own club. Once you get into them, you become addicted (kinda like\u00a0crystals<\/a>) and you can\u2019t leave home or anywhere without them. The cool thing is that there is an oil for every situation. On the plane, I will roll\u00a0Tata Harper\u2019s Aromatic Stress Treatment<\/a>\u00a0on my neck, pulse points and on the palms of my hands and breath in deeply 3 to 5 times. This really helps relax my mind. More on essentials oils coming soon.<\/p>\n
