Heading somewhere to escape the winter slump? Travel is exciting, but changes in climate, routine, and stress levels can take a toll on your skin. From long flights to late nights, it’s easy for breakouts and dullness to sneak in while you’re on the go.
Good news: With a little preparation and the right habits, you can keep your skin glowing no matter where your travels take you. Ahead, we’re sharing five simple, realistic tips to help you maintain radiant, breakout-free skin from before, during, and after your trip.
Be consistent before you leave
Avoid introducing new products before your trip, as consistency helps keep your skin barrier balanced and breakout-free. Think of it as setting your skin up for success before travel stress begins.
Stick to your usual products
Whether you check a bag or decant into reusable travel containers, bring the products your skin already knows and trusts. Swapping in unfamiliar or cheaper alternatives can easily trigger irritation or breakouts.
Hydrate even more than normal
Travel can dehydrate your skin quickly, especially when flying or changing climates. Increase your water intake and rely on hydrating skincare to keep your skin resilient and clear.
Maintain a familiar diet on the go
Sudden changes in diet can lead to inflammation and unexpected breakouts. Try to anchor meals with foods your body is used to while still enjoying your travels.
Go light on the makeup
Heavy makeup can clog pores more easily when combined with sweat, oil, and pollution. Opt for lightweight products and let your skin breathe whenever possible.
