The Ultimate On-the-Go Guide to Glowing Skin

The Ultimate On-the-Go Guide to Glowing Skin

Who doesn’t feel their best on vacation? There’s plenty of R&R, no household chores or work stress, and a reprieve from ringing phones and beeping computers. But as they say, it’s not the destination but the journey that counts, and that journey to paradise comes with parching recycled air and tight spaces on all modes of transportation that can wreak havoc on our skin. But ensuring our complexions weather any trip beautifully is easier than we think. Here are our top 7 skincare tips for an immaculate complexion wherever the road takes you.

1.     Hydrate from Within
Experts recommend drinking more water a few days before we leave and plenty during the trip to maintain healthy and comfortable hydration systemically.

2.     Double up on Moisturizer
We can boost skin hydration while traveling by layering a hydrating serum underneath a more intensive moisturizer. Start by applying our Renewing HA Serum with PPM⁶ technology, which incorporates our proprietary supercharged HA plus Glycerin and other proven moisturizing ingredients to provide lightweight yet meaningful hydration and moisture while boosting radiance and enhancing skin elasticity. Let absorb a few minutes and then top with our HYDRI-C Daily Vitamin C Moisturizer, which, in addition to antioxidant vitamin C, contains Jojoba Oil, a rich source of fatty acids and antioxidants that enhances skin’s restorative properties and provides skin-soothing benefits. Meanwhile, the formula’s 3rd Generation Squalane effectively hydrates and balances skin’s moisture levels as Butyrospermum Parkii (Shea Butter) Oil forms a nourishing barrier to help reduce transepidermal water loss (TEWL) while improving elasticity and restoring dry, dehydrated skin.

3.     Don’t Forget the Body
 Skin from the neck down can get as dry if not drier than our faces while traveling. Applying a super hydrating body lotion before dressing the morning of our departure will keep skin calm and comfortable. Our ENCORE Body Hydrator is an advanced therapeutic body treatment that effectively firms, tightens, balances, and provides instant and long-lasting hydration for even rough, dry, and flaky skin.

4.     Pay Lip Service
Long travel days can also dry out our lips, so keeping them well-hydrated is extra important.  Our Luxe Lip Hydrator’s therapeutic formula features our proprietary Supercharged injectable-grade HA combined with next-generation HA sphere technology to deliver unmatched hydration and improved natural volume in a proprietary silky, non-sticky formula.

5.     Prepare for Acne Breakouts
Despite ultra-drying conditions, even the clearest complexions can experience acne flare-ups while traveling due to stress, varying water pH and hardness, and surfaces that come into contact with our faces.  Our HYACYN ACTIVE Purifying Mist helps keep blemishes at bay while refreshing travel-weary skin and soothing irritation thanks to its infusion of anti-microbial and anti-inflammatory Hypochlorous Acid (HOCl).

6.     Limit Alcohol and Caffeine
Alcohol and caffeine contribute to dehydration, often resulting in fine lines, dryness, puffiness, and drawn complexions. So, it’s best to enjoy both in moderation while traveling. Consider chasing each serving of alcohol or caffeine with a glass of water to offset any issues.
