Flying can definitely take its toll on our appearance. If you're like me, I end up looking drained and a bit frazzled coming from a flight. Below are a few helpful tips to looking refreshed...
- MOISTURIZE! - this is super important, because when you're in the air, air pressures are much lower causing your skin to become a bit dry and pale looking. moisturizer will replenish your skin and give you a healthy glow
- Make Up - something I've picked up after traveling a bit with my family is to not wear a heavy load of make up before your flight. Your makeup may end up looking "worn out" and will most likely come off regardless (plus, if you're headed on vacation... a heavy amount of makeup isn't even necessary, au naturale ladies!) what my mom always tells me to bring is a nice lip color, a bright shade of red or pink after a flight can definitely brighten up your face and make you feel refreshed!
- H2O -hydrate yourself plenty! being up in the air not only can dry your skin but make you even more dehydrated. also, try to pack your own snacks (ie: dried fruit)
- Socks - bring a pair of socks with you, being that high up in the air and the temperature of the airplane can be a bit colder. also, ask for a blanket!
- Carry On - whether it's a larger tote or a small backpack, this is definitely an essential. this can hold all of your information (passport, wallet, etc), your snacks, make up, etc into one central area for quick access.
