You’re all packed and ready for your trip. But wait, it’s a long flight and your favourite products will be stowed away. Fret not! To make sure you arrive at your destination looking your best self, we’ve compiled a list of travel-size essentials that fit into your cabin luggage. Take a look:
SKYN ICELANDGlacial Cleansing Cloths ($39)
Remove all traces of dirt and makeup with these wipes. For a thorough cleanse, rub sides of the cloth together to create a rich, foaming lather and gently sweep across skin – you don’t have to rinse it off after. Each cloth contains mineral-rich Icelandic glacial water alongside Arctic super fruits, pure, encapsulated oxygen, coconut oil, oat, cucumber and cornflower extracts to calm, cleanse, and soften skin. They’re eco-friendly and biodegradable – what’s not to love about it?
PIXI GLOW Glycolic Boost Brightening Infusion Sheet Mask ($13)
Once your face is cleansed, apply this skin care solution for a radiance boost. The all-new GLOW Glycolic Boost Brightening Infusion Sheet Mask is seeped in a glycolic acid concentrate that brightens skin, while the herbal extracts help improve and maintain skin health, promoting luminous, hydrated skin. All you need is 15 minutes.
PAI SKINCARE Rosehip BioRegenerate Oil ($19)
Your skin needs all the hydration it can get. This cold-pressed rosehip oil contains high concentrations of omegas 3, 6, 7 and 9, along with antioxidant carotenoids to repair and protect skin against environmental stress and visible damage. Rosehip oil is known to improve firmness, skin elasticity and skin tone, without causing irritation – read about the benefits of rosehip oil here
CAUDALIE Vinoperfect Radiance Moisturiser Broad Spectrum SPF 20 ($35)
If you are sitting by the window, or getting off a flight during the day, apply this oil-free moisturiser with SPF. This one in particular is infused with a concoction of powders, tannins and papaya enzymes, which gently exfoliates, refines skin texture and adds instant radiance to skin. Meanwhile, patented Vinifernine diminishes the appearance of dark spots and signs of ageing while olive squalene and hyaluronic acid deeply moisturises skin.
NUXE Rêve De Miel Lip Stick ($7)
This ultra-nourishing lip balm lasts for hours, and works as a great base for matte lipstick. Honey, plant oils, shea butter and grapefruit essence delivers consistent hydration and protection, sans the stickiness. It can also be applied to especially dry patches – if you have any eczema or psoriasis, this will soothe itchiness and encourage skin to repair itself.
BASTIDE Rose Olivier Eau de Toilette ($39)
Land at your destination smelling absolutely divine with this Rose Olivier Eau de Toilette. The heady aroma comprises notes of bergamot, Italian tangerine and lychee to lift floral notes of violet and pink peony with a mix of amber, musk, white cedar wood and cashmere wood. Best applied just before packing away your travel essentials, while getting off the flight.
The Carry-On Cosmetic Case from BÉIS ($38)
This carry-on can fit literally all the travel essentials you need to take along. See-through panes make it easy to check at customs, and easy to dig out products when it’s time to begin your inflight skincare regime. The bag includes a mirror and has two zip compartments – save one side for makeup?
