A long flight is often the opposite of glamorous, which is all the more reason to tuck little luxurious into your carry-on. These pint-sized splurges will leave you relaxed and looking fresh by the time you land.
Evian Facial Spray (from the Travel Trio)
These 1.7 oz. Evian Facial Sprays relieve dry skin instantly, which makes them perfect for rehydrating up in the air. If you’re feeling parched or overheated, spritz on, wait a few moments, and then gently wipe away with a tissue. Instant Refreshment!
Shu Uemura Essence Absolue (from the Hair Essentials On the Go Kit)
This summer, Shu released its popular nourishing camelia oil in a convenient 1 oz. bottle. The stuff has a rabid following for a reason—it’s light as a feather, eradicates fuzziness on the spot, and leaves locks soft and shiny.
Kate Somerville Daily Deflector Waterlight Anti-Aging Sunscreen
Counterintuitively, this sunscreen is one of the best facial moisturizers we’ve tried lately. The formula is designed for double duty, pairing maximum sun protection (with broad spectrum 50+ SPF) with anti-aging, wrinkle-reducing properties. A few dabs will leave the face looking and feeling silky smooth and totally hydrated.
Josie Maran Argan Color Stick
For us, all the moisturizer in the world can’t replace a pop of color. The 100% organic stick is also 100% spill-proof, and works equally well straight from the tube or patted on with your fingertips. Applied to the lips and cheeks, it gives the face a natural, post-workout glow, even if you’ve been sitting in coach for four hours!
Sonia Kashuk Double Zip Foldover in Dot Print
We prefer a reusable alternative to the requisite zip-close plastic baggie. This one opens to two TSA-friendly clear compartments, which keep toiletries organized and easy to see. Just open it up before sending through the security conveyor.
