„Would you like something to drink?“ – no sooner has the plane taken off than the snack service usually begins. While we reach for water, coffee, or tomato juice to stave off hunger and thirst, we often neglect the parts of us that are actually working overtime during the flight: our skin and hair.
Up there, they are in a state of crisis.
Humidity levels in aircraft cabins often drop below 20 percent—sometimes making the air drier than that of the Sahara Desert. Add to this the dry air from air conditioning, pressure changes, and low oxygen levels. As a result, our skin loses moisture more rapidly, feeling tight and looking dull or becoming sensitive. Hair also dries out faster, often feeling straw-like after long flights. Naturally, this is far from ideal when you want to arrive at your holiday destination feeling refreshed.
That makes compact skincare products—which fit easily into your carry-on and actually deliver results on the go—all the more important. This is exactly why we love the travel-sized and solid products from Lush.
1 For relaxed skin & better sleep after the flight: Twilight Shower Jelly
Jet lag, dry skin, and sensory overload? This soothing shower jelly with lavender and tonka feels almost like a mini spa ritual after a long flight.
2 For dry summer hair: Revive Hair Moisturiser
Sun, salt, air conditioning—our hair often loses a great deal of moisture while on vacation. This rich hair cream, formulated with avocado and coconut oil, softens dry ends and adds shine without weighing the hair down.
3 For shiny hair without the risk of spills: Jason and the Argan Oil Shampoo Bar
Solid shampoo bars are not only practical for carry-on luggage but also perfect for summer travel. This argan oil shampoo bar adds shine, nourishes the scalp, and smells wonderfully of rose.
