Long-haul flights are known to leave your skin looking dull and dehydrated upon arrival. And while you might be in a vacation mood, you would definitely want to town down in your favourite city looking flawless. It may seem easy enough to throw your most-used items into a toiletry bag, but with the restrictions on fluids allowed in your bag, putting in your travel beauty essentials can be quite the task. But thanks to pint-sized liquids, it is easy to stay glam while you’re away from home.

Looking for a dose of hydration while you fly? The Laneige Water Sleeping Mask makes for a travel beauty essential giving your skin a well-rested and hydrated look the next morning.
Lipstick is a travel beauty MVP, because who doesn’t like a dash of colour to brighten up your face? The best part about a good lip shade is that you won’t need anything else to look glamorous.
For a fresh, flushed look upon arrival, blush should be a part of your beauty travel essentials. Opt for a natural shade with a touch of shimmer or a matte blush like Bobbi Brown’s pink blush.
When the benefits of a moisturiser and foundation are combined together it makes for a must-have travel beauty essential. Because a little bit of tint goes a long way. Forest Essential’s Chandan Som Rasa Silk Skin Tint is lightweight and perfect for Indian skin tones. Almost like a finishing cream and much lighter than a conventional foundation, this skin tint can be used as the first step of your makeup routine and last step of your skincare routine for a healthy glow
A beauty MVP, stepping out of your home without applying sunscreen is a big faux pas. While it might be an underrated essential, having sunscreen in your bag is needed no matter whether there is sun or not! The Clinique Spectrum SPF 50 Mineral Sunscreen is what we swear by.
Chapped lips come as part of the package with long-haul flights and that means you must carry a good and moisturising lip balm as you head for a long flight. Whether you want a subtle glow or a glossy finish you can pick from a wide variety, however, we recommend the Dior Addict Glow for a natural look.
Smelling good is great manners they say! And perfume is a travel beauty essential because you always want a fragrant smell. Chloe’s newly launched Rose Naturelle Intense Fragrance has a sweet fragrance.
To help manage excess oil and boost volume during your trip a dry shampoo is worth the buy. Kerastase’s Fresh Affair is ideal for all types of hair and roots, leaving a lightweight, clean feel. Its addictive Neroli note gives an irresistible 24hr long-lasting fragrance.
Fight frizz and say hello to soft detangled hair as you invest in a leave-in conditioner. OUAI’s leave-in conditioner detangles, hydrates and fights frizz for all hair types, leaving your hair smooth, shiny and manageable.
If you have acne-prone or combination skin, consider this clarifying cleanser from Murad a travel beauty essential. It uses salicylic acid as the main ingredient to remove dirt and oil while preventing new breakouts while you’re in vacation mode.
