Travel Tips to Glow on the Go | Skincare Travel Kit

Keep your daily skincare routine in check no matter where you go! Staying consistent with your skincare products is essential to reduce breakouts and keep your skin balanced and glowing. Before you say “bon voyage”, be sure you’re prepared to protect your beautiful complexion with ease and enjoy your trip!

The first thing to bear in mind is your method of travel. If you’ll be traveling by car for an extended amount of time, it’s important to consistently apply a natural sunscreen such as our SPF 30 Sunblock. Did you know that UVA rays penetrate through glass? The UVA ray, also known as the “aging” ray, is responsible for creating damage in the dermis. This damage is cumulative and appears on the skin as deep wrinkles, fine lines, dark spots, melasma, sagging skin and cancerous and pre-cancerous lesions. The good news is you simply need to reapply your sunblock about every 90 minutes to 2 hours on all exposed skin and you’re ready to go! Setting a timer on your phone ensures you won't forget.

If you’ll be traveling by plane, consider adding our Travel Kit (Dry/Sensitive or Combination/Oily) to your carry-on bag along with our SPF 30 Sunblock. If you’re scheduled for a very long flight, consider selecting the seat closest to the window so you’re able to put the shade down so you are not exposed to even higher levels of UV radiation. The recycled cabin air is incredibly dehydrating and will deplete any moisture it comes in contact with, so steer clear of in-flight facial treatments which will further dehydrate your skin.

Before your flight
Mist your skin with our gorgeous Wildflower Hydrating Mist to soak in all the soothing and hydrating benefits of its aloe, rose water and glycerin. While your skin is still damp, apply 1 pump of Firming Peptide Serum to your face and neck and massage until absorbed. Then top your skin with 1-3 drops of Amber Primrose Facial Oil to seal in hydration.
Don't forget our protective SPF 30 Sunblock.

 

When you reach your destination 

Cleanse your skin twice with our Herbal Mint Cleanser for normal to oily skin types or Carrot Citrus Cleanser for dry or sensitive skin types. Then, apply 1-3 drops of our Amber Primrose Facial Oil to nourish your skin with antioxidant support and brighten with 25% stable, lipophilic Vitamin C.

Regardless of the length of your trip, it’s important to maintain consistency in your non-toxic skin care regimen and not deviate too much. Exposure to a different climate, changes in your diet, and more sun exposure, can encourage the skin to misbehave. This is why we find people break out during their trip or when they return home. Increase your water intake, regardless of your method of travel, to assist the body's natural process of detoxification. Consuming water-rich foods such as watermelon, cucumbers, and berries is a delicious way to increase your hydration. Bring enough of your vitamins to last the entirety of your trip so you stay well and feel great!
