Hi Reader,

If you’ve ever landed after a long flight and caught your reflection looking… dull, puffy, dehydrated —

You’re not imagining it.

Cabin air has a fraction of the humidity your skin is used to on the ground, and it pulls moisture straight out of it the entire time you’re in the air.

After years of flying for a living, I’ve built a skincare/wellness routine around two windows:

Right before I fly, and right after I land.

Here’s what that actually looks like.

Before & during the flight:

• Add a barrier — vitamin C serum + moisturizer under my makeup

• Hydrate like it’s your job (because for me, it kind of is 🤣)— water and/or green tea over coffee, especially the hour before boarding.

After landing — this is where the real work happens:

Post-flight is when I actually see the biggest difference, so I don’t skip this part no matter how tired I am

• Korean snail mucin sheet mask to flood dehydrated skin with moisture right away

• Red light therapy mask to calm inflammation and help my skin bounce back faster — I just posted a full review of the one I now bring on every trip, including how it packs and how I use it:

• Oil cleansing at night to properly clear out a full day of recycled cabin air, makeup, and travel grime

• Retinol serum to help my skin recover overnight

• Hydration - water, sparkling water or coconut water (usually a combo of those!) to rehydrate, especially after a long haul flight

​
None of this is complicated, but doing it consistently is what’s kept my skin from wrecking itself after years of flying!

If you want the full breakdown on the red light mask specifically, I go into more detail in the video:

Wishing you a beautiful week ahead 🌸
