Although thirsty is our name, thirsty skin is not our nature. There is nothing that makes us feel worse than being on a long flight with all the elements (aircon, altitude and pressure), and stepping off that plane with a face feeling as dry as Ghandi’s flip flop. Yes, you might be in paradise and that hot air hitting you as you step of that plane might be the best feeling you’ve had all year (and don’t forget to make it your best tweet too) but all that waiting around for luggage, boarder security etc. and that transfer to the hotel/apartment or wherever you’re staying is painful enough minus feeling like a dog because your skins dry, your hairs shit and you’re sweaty asf! We want to make that short trip to paradise just a little less painful for you, take a look at our ‘skin so fresh @ 30,000ft’ guide to all the best products to pack in your liquid bag to get you stepping off that plane looking like the queen you are.
NIP+FABS moisture-infusing Dragon’s Blood Eye Masks. Plumps skin and leaves those tired eyes hydrated and refreshed.
Elizabeth Arden Eight Hour Intensive Lip Repair Balm. The best lip balm out there. We couldn’t leave this one behind. A long lasting moisture, pucker up and get them lips looking and feeling smoothhh.
my CLARINS RE-BOOST contains organic coconut water to feed your skin and if thats not enough, this lightweight moisturiser also detoxifies your skin. Get up and glow
This spray is a LIFE SAVER on a long flight. Use as little or as often as you like. As soon as that aircon gets to you, a single spray will get your skin right back on track leaving while also feeling refreshed and revitalised.
It says its a foundation but honestly its more of a moisturizer / BB cream, and perfect for topping up before the end of a flight. Velvety soft, easily blended and so amazingly light also with SPF 6!
Dry hands are DISGUSTANG *insert gif* , so you need a little help? Get on this, Formulated with Colloidal Oatmeal, Aveeno hand cream helps heal dry skin and forms a protective barrier againstall the elements.
It’s proven that flying can not only make your skin dry, but also your cuticles. Nails fresh from the salon? they aren’t looking so fresh after a 3 hour flight, trust us, no one likes all that flake. Don’t worry though, brush a bit of this recommended Sally Hansen cuticle oil on and claw away.
Yes we are talking about fresh skin, but whats fresh skin without fresh brows?? Nothing. Natural-looking fullness and definition using this Benefit Gimme Brow, gotta have them fresh and fleeky, o k.
So cleansing is just as important to us as vodka, but even more important @ 30’000ft (obviously with a vodka by your side), Simple cleansing wipes are a gentle cleanser that lifts away grease and impurities while leaving you feeling squeaky clean.
All this shit with no place to go. A good place to keep all your good tings, this Cult Beauty travel make up bag is the perfect place to store all your skin necessities. Although you will have to put them into a separate bag at security you need something a little more secure for your Thirsty Travels.
Finally, We know all the products we posted are insane, but there is one final way to keep your skin fresh and hydrated, combine this with all the products and you’ll feel fresher than fresh! It is the best proven way to wash out them toxins and keep the skin plush and it is none other than H2o. Remember, 2 bottles in the air is 1 on the ground meaning you dehydrate so much faster when flying, you should consume depending on the length of your flight but the average experts say is 8oz for every hour you’re in the air (which is about 0.3 litres – manageable). We want you to stay Thirsty with us, but only Thirsty for more, so take a swig. Safe flying huns.
