The list below might look excessive, but most of these 'essentials' come in travel size!
Firstly start with a large empty stainless steel water bottle, once you board the plane, ask an air host to fill it for you, keeping hydrated is fundamental in staying fresh.
Secondly invest in a clear cosmetic bag, and store it in the top of your carry on luggage so it's easy to access when passing through the security points at airports.
Fill the cosmetic bag with the following:
- Facial wipes, I like the organic and biodegradeable WOTNOT wipes, they are great for removing makeup (including eye makeup) and are moisturising
- An eye cream which reduces puffyness and dark circles caused by lack of sleep, I love the Grown Eye Cream
- A rich facial moisturiser is a must to fight the stale, dry aeroplane air, Antipodes Rejoice Light Day Cream is enriched with avocado oil, macadamia and jojoba to balance and moisturise, while manuka flower oil has antibacterial healing and protective properties
- Protect lips with a moisturising lip balm, Burt's Bees Lip Shimmers do the trick and as an added bonus they have a shimmery tint
- A rinse free hand wash can come in handy, try Aesop's Resurrection Rinse-Free Hand Wash
- Before the flight commences landing, freshen up, and tidy your mane with a dry shampoo, such as the Bumble and Bumble Hair Powder, and a quick hair brush, then paint your face with a light tinted moisturiser, I like the Kora Tinted Day Cream, oh and don't forget your toothbrush!
