Travelling can be exciting, but it often disrupts our daily skincare routines, leaving skin feeling dehydrated, tired, or irritated.
However, with the right strategies and products, you can maintain a glowing complexion no matter where you go.
Clere skincare brand manager Su-Marie Annandale explains how you can keep your skincare routine on track while on the move.
When packing, less is more. Focus on a few key products that address your skin's basic needs – cleansing, moisturising, and sun protection.
Tip: Opt for travel-sized versions of your favourite products or transfer them into reusable mini containers. Look for multi-purpose products to save space.
Travelling, especially by air, can severely dehydrate your skin due to dry cabin air and environmental changes.
Lotion or crème: Include a rich moisturising lotion or crème to keep your skin hydrated.
A lightweight lotion is great for humid destinations, while a richer crème works wonders in colder or dry climates. Apply a generous amount before and during travel to lock in moisture.
No matter where you’re headed, sun protection is crucial. UV exposure can happen even when flying or sitting near a window.
Tip: Choose a broad-spectrum SPF 30 or higher.
Keeping your skin hydrated externally isn’t enough. Travel often involves changes in diet and water intake, which can affect skin.
Tip: Stay hydrated by drinking plenty of water throughout your trip. For extra hydration on the go, consider adding water to an empty spray bottle and spritz yourself throughout the day.
If you find that travel leaves your skin feeling parched, a moisture-locking product like Clere’s range of moisturising and nourishing crèmes is the perfect option.
Once you return from your trip, treat your skin to a post-travel reset routine to restore balance.
Tip: Consider exfoliating gently to remove dead skin cells and applying a nourishing crème to replenish lost moisture.
