5 Must-Try Skin Care Travel Tips

In search of skin-saving travel tips? We’ve asked Annet King, Director of Global Education at Dermalogica and the International Dermal Institute, to share her top five. And, be sure to check out the new Dermalogica kiosks filled with TSA-friendly products at your nearest airport.

By Deena Campbell · October 13, 2015October 27, 2020
01
Replicate Your Routine

For long or overnight flights, try and replicate your at-home routine. “Pump a creamy cleanser that doesn’t require water for removal onto a few dampened cotton pads and stash in a Ziploc bag,” says King. You’ll also want to spritz cleansed skin with a hydrating toner and finish with a peptide- or vitamin-rich moisturizer.

02
Keep Your Face Clean

“Immediately wash your face post-flight,” says King. “The skin can’t dispose of internal waste as efficiently when motionless for hours, which is why you may have a few blemishes pop up after traveling. This is especially true for those with oily or acne-prone skin.”

03
Use Eye Cream

“Lightly pat on an eye product that does triple duty—smoothes lines, reduces puffiness, and lightens dark circles,” says King. And, a little highlighter on the cheeks also does wonders.

04
Move Around

Avoid puffy eyes and extremities by getting up and down during the flight to keep the lymphatic fluid moving. Also avoid salty airplane foods as they can cause swelling in the hands, feet, and face.

05
Be Prepared

When preparing your carry-on plastic zip-bag of travel-sized musts, leave about a half-inch of air at the top of each bottle. Otherwise, they’ll burst under cabin pressure.
