It’s not easy to make yourself looking great when you’re on a plane surrounded by other passengers, dry cabin air and the lack of sleep. Thankfully, there are tons of gadgets and products that can help you look your best such as these five airplane beauty essentials.

  1. Facial wipes

Your handkerchief doesn’t offer the same benefits as facial wipes when it comes to keeping your face oil-free and hydrated. These wipes are used in removing makeup and since they contain moisturizer, you no longer have to apply your usual creams just to avoid dryness.

  1. Mist

Skin dryness is a major problem for people who travel by plane. Despite the air condition, the atmosphere inside the plane can become arid. A great way to hydrate the skin is by spraying facial mist. Look for a product that offers light and non-grease formula you can take along with you. The best alternative is to put pure water in a spritzer and spritz whenever possible.

  1. BB Creams

Can you imagine carrying all those beauty products you have at home? Avoid the hassle by simply bringing along in your carry-on a BB cream. This beauty essential serves different purposes. It’s a moisturizer, sunscreen and foundation rolled into one. You won’t be getting off that plane looking completely bare and haggard.

  1. Sleeping aids

It’s almost impossible to get a good sleep when flying but thankfully, there are now sleeping aids you can take along with you especially when you’ll be up there for ours. A small pillow and a light blanket can keep you comfortable. Meanwhile, don’t forget those headphones to block the noise of those around you.

  1. Water

Never underestimate the power of the good old water. Drinking lots of it can prevent skin dryness. You also get to make several trips to the toilet, allowing your body a little exercise to avoid stiffness.

Don’t forget to bring these airplane beauty essentials with you on your next flight. Look your best the moment you stepped out of that plane.
