Summertime is the perfect season for spontaneous getaways and longer vacations. As you pack your bags and plan your adventures, it’s essential not to overlook your skincare routine. Traveling can take a toll on your skin due to changes in climate, air travel, and different environments. At InviCible Skincare, we’re here to help you keep your skin glowing and healthy, no matter where your travels take you. In this post, we'll share our top travel-friendly skincare essentials and tips for maintaining your skincare routine on the go.
Traveling can disrupt your usual skincare routine, leading to dryness, breakouts, or irritation. Changes in climate, exposure to different pollutants, and the stress of travel can all impact your skin. By bringing along travel-friendly skincare essentials, you can ensure that your skin remains well cared for, helping you look and feel your best throughout your trip.
When packing for a trip, it’s important to streamline your skincare routine while ensuring you have all the essentials. Here are the key travel-sized products to include:
Traveling with skincare products requires some planning to ensure everything fits in your luggage and complies with travel regulations. Here are some tips to make packing easier:
Decant into Travel-Sized Containers: If your favorite products don’t come in travel sizes, transfer them into small, leak-proof containers. This saves space and ensures you have enough product for your trip.
Use Sealable Plastic Bags: Place your skincare products in sealable plastic bags to prevent leaks and spills in your luggage.
Invest in a Travel Skincare Bag: A dedicated travel skincare bag with compartments can help keep your products organized and easily accessible.
Check Airline Regulations: Make sure all your liquids comply with airline regulations (usually 3.4 ounces or 100 milliliters per container) and fit into a quart-sized clear plastic bag if you’re carrying them in your hand luggage.
Air travel can be particularly harsh on your skin due to the low humidity levels in the cabin. Here are some tips to keep your skin comfortable and hydrated during flights:
Cleanse Before Boarding: Cleanse your face before boarding to remove any makeup, dirt, or oil. This allows your skin to breathe and prevents clogged pores.
Hydrate Frequently: Drink plenty of water throughout your flight to stay hydrated from the inside out.
Apply a Hydrating Serum: Before takeoff, apply a hydrating serum to lock in moisture. Look for serums with hyaluronic acid or vitamin E.
Use a Face Mask: For longer flights, consider applying a sheet mask or a hydrating gel mask to replenish moisture. Choose a mask that’s easy to apply and doesn’t require rinsing.
Refresh with a Mist: Keep a hydrating mist in your carry-on and spritz your face periodically to maintain moisture levels.
Moisturize Regularly: Reapply your moisturizer during the flight, especially if your skin starts to feel dry. A rich, emollient moisturizer can provide a protective barrier against the dry cabin air.
Prep for Make-Up: Start your makeup routine with the InviCible Primer+ & Dark Spot Corrector to create a flawless base while also addressing dark spots and uneven skin tone, perfect for looking fresh and radiant on the go.
Traveling doesn't have to mean compromising your skincare routine. With the right travel-friendly skincare essentials and a few smart packing tips, you can keep your skin healthy and radiant no matter where your adventures take you. At InviCible Skincare, we’re dedicated to helping you maintain beautiful skin year-round, and we hope these tips help you enjoy a glowing, worry-free summertime getaway. Happy travels!
