Glowing Skin on the Go: Tips for travelling
As we approach the depths of winter, many of us are jetsetting to warmer places! Whether you're planning a tour of European coastlines or seeking tranquility on Bali's sandy shores, one thing remains constant: the importance of maintaining healthy, glowing skin throughout your travels.
Why Travel Can Affect Your Skin
Traveling, especially long flights or exposure to different climates, can take a toll on your skin. The combination of dry airplane cabin air, changes in humidity, and exposure to sun and wind can leave your skin feeling dehydrated, dull, or even prone to breakouts. This makes it crucial to adapt your skincare routine to suit the demands of your journey.
Hydration is Key
First and foremost, hydration is non-negotiable. Drink plenty of water before, during, and after your flights to combat dehydration. This simple habit helps keep your skin plump and radiant from within. Additionally, consider carrying our lotion N - a facial mist to replenish moisture throughout the day.
Sun Protection Always
Whether you're exploring the cobblestone streets of Prague or lounging by the beaches of Bali, sunscreen is your best friend. Opt for a broad-spectrum sunscreen with at least SPF 30 and reapply it every couple of hours, especially if you're sweating or swimming. Protecting your skin from harmful UV rays not only prevents sunburn but also reduces the risk of premature aging and skin damage. Adequate SPF will also mean you can jump back into your skin treatments on return.
Streamline Your Skincare Routine
When traveling, simplicity is key. Consider paring down your skincare routine to essentials like a gentle cleanser, toner, moisturiser and sunscreen. Look for travel-sized versions of your favorite products to save space and comply with airline regulations. Look no further than our Dermaviduals’ travel kits - fit for purpose with cleanser, toner, moisturiser and a once weekly sleep-in mask.
Adapt to Local Conditions
Every destination presents unique challenges to your skin. In humid climates like Bali, lightweight skincare products and oil-control measures may be necessary. In drier climates like some parts of Europe, focus on moisturizing and protecting your skin from harsh winds. Not sure which travel kit is best? We can guide you!
Sleep and Rest
Adequate rest and sleep are essential for your skin's health and overall well-being. Aim for at least 7-8 hours of sleep each night to allow your skin time to repair and regenerate. Once a week, replenish your skin with a hydrating sleep-in mask. Mask with vitamins is a sleep-in mask that does not need to be washed off, it is packed with vitamin A, C, E and D-panthenol. You will wake up glowing, ready to take on your travel days.
Conclusion
As you embark on your adventures to Europe, Bali, or beyond, remember that glowing skin isn't just about aesthetics—it's a reflection of your overall health and well-being. By prioritising hydration, sun protection, a simple skincare routine, and rest, you can ensure that your skin remains radiant throughout your travels. We wish you all safe travels!
