Essential Items To Take With You When You Fly

Flying can be very hard on your skin and your body. Think jet lag, dry air and close contact with people and dirty surfaces. But there are some things you can do to fight back. 

Here are my essential items: 

1. Sanitizing Wipes - Yes, I am one of those people who wipes down the airplane seat, tray table and even the seat belt as soon as I board the plane. Yes, I get some strange looks. Yes, I get some thank you's when I tell my seatmate that I already cleaned the seat for them. But guess what, I hardly ever get sick after flying. I prefer Clear Defense Sanitizing Wipes. They are non-toxic and created with essential oils. 

2. Sustain - Electrolytes to keep me hydrated during or after the flight. Comes in a powder so I can just add it to water and no problem with security. 

3. Activate C - This is an immunity booster that helps my body fight against the germs and viruses that are so common in the close space aboard a plane. It works way better than off the shelf brands in my opinion. 

4. Renew Lotion - this lotion is amazing for dry skin, eczema, and psoriasis. On planes, it is incredible to help your skin battle the dry air. 

5. Essential Oil - I prefer lavender to help me relax on the plane. I either take a rollerball filled with lavender essential oil or the Renew lotion with lavender. Yum. 

6. Sei Bella Daytime/Nighttime Face Creme - Again, helps battle the dry air inside the plane and keep my face moisturized. 

7. SunShades Lip Balm - non-toxic made with essential oils and keeps my lips moisturized during the flight. It also has SPF so this is my go-to lip balm for everyday use. 


Whatever products you use, be sure they are moisturizing your skin and body plus helping your body fight off viruses and of course, be sure they are non toxic. If you would like to try any of the products mentioned above, email me and I will show you how to stop direct from the manufacturer so you get the best price.
