We all know that flying is an absolute killer on your skin. Whether it’s a short hop on Air New Zealand or you’re heading for a winter escape, it’s important to look after your skin, especially on the long haul flights. Here are some of our top beauty tips for when you travel:
- Drink lots of water. Everyone knows that flying dehydrates you, so it’s essential to drink more than usual.
- Make sure that you pack travel sized of the following, lip balm, moisturiser and hand cream. Use them all regularly during your flight.
- Pack an eye mask if you are travelling long haul. The lights on airplanes are harsh and can make sleeping difficult.
- Avoid alcohol if possible. I know, we’re a wine company, but the truth is that the effect of alcohol is more significant at higher altitudes, so best to avoid, or limit to one with your meal.
- Pack a comfy pair of socks and throw in a pashmina or warm scarf into your bag. It can get cold on flights and sometimes the blanket just isn’t enough.
- Pack a travel sized toothbrush and tooth paste. If there is one thing that will make you feel fresh, it’s clean teeth!
