If you’re the girl that’s always catching flights, it’s important to arm yourself with necessary items to keep your beauty game in tact. Flights can get your sick, zap your skin from hydration, and even be uncomfortable. As someone who travels frequently, I’ve come to have a little “travel pack” with beauty items that I never leave home without. This helps me arrive to my destination looking refreshed and well rested! So whether it’s face masks (that I have no shame doing whether I’m flying in first class or basic economy) or 100% organic ways to dodge germs on flights, here are must have products that you won’t want to leave home without. Personally, I just have mine in a little travel bag, so it’s ready to throw in my purse for each and every flight!

We’ve all heard of of silk pillows being great in preventing wrinkles; however, silicone can also reduce wrinkles. That’s what Silc Skin eye pads ($29.95, silcskin.com). These are great for overnight and perfect when you’re favorite IG girl was up too late editing content.

Plane Aire

Naomi Campbell may have seemed like a germaphobe cleaning the plane before she sat down but an airplane can be one of the dirtiest places. Due to the high volume of individuals using it (and how quickly they are cleaned for turn around), things like the carpet, trays, and seats are rarely cleaned. Unless you are flying a Dreamliner, the air is recycled air. Knowing this, I now like to use Plane Aire Travel Mist ($14.99, planeaire.com). It’s an all natural surface sanitizer and air purifier made from 100% organic essential oils. It’s scientifically proven to eliminate 99.99% of odor-causing bacteria commonly found on planes.

The AHC Brightening and Hydrating Mask ($25.00, amazon.com) is affordable K-beauty at it’s finest. This mask is not only packaged cute, but it really turns around dull skin! The mask holds AHC’s Proprietary Aqua Ceramide, which is known for it’s intense hydration. Your skin can use an injection of hydration during (or after!) a long flight. I have been known to use this mask while traveling or giving my face a pick me up in the hotel room once I land. You can get 5 masks for $25.00 on Amazon, making each mask affordable at $5.00 a pop! These masks are safe so you can even use every other day if you like.

Personally, I hate carrying my full size products (be it foundation, primer, facial moisturizer, whatever) when I’m off for a weekend trip. Palette by Pak ($39.00, palettebypak.com) is helping to solve this dilemma (and make your carryon lighter – products add up in weight!). Scoop your favorite full-sized beauty products into the palette. It’s a leak resistant innovative tool to bring your favorite beauty products on the go with no need for tiny, wasteful, single-use travel bottles.

Are you a wanderlust? Or just building up those frequent flyer miles for work? Airplanes can be stuffy, noisy, dry, and overall uncomfortable. That’s why you should have the right stuff! While I don’t mind building my own travel pack, I understand that others may want all the products placed in a bag for them and ready to go. The Aria Mini Travel Kit ($39.00, ariakit.com) comes with all the essentials for a long flight like moist towelettes for whatever you need, handmade toothpaste with a biodegradable bamboo toothbrush for an overnight flight, their fluffy socks, a gold pen to fill out those travel forms and foam ear plugs to cancel out a noisy flight.

Not all silk sleep masks are created equal. SlipSilk, which was popularized for their pillowcases to help prevent wrinkles and maintain your tresses, also has a sleep mask ($50.00, slip.com).

Black Radiance may be known for their foundation and amazing contouring palette; however, they have skincare products, too! The skincare travel set ($14.99, blackradiancebeauty.com) costs less than a checked bag. The exfoliant is my favorite in the line, with a citrus smell that I love. The moisturizer is great for long flights and make sure to lock it all in with the massage oil that they provide.
