For anybody not a secret that while you calmly fly the plane and read a book, your skin and hair under stress. This is for two main reasons. First, low air humidity on Board (a total of 15 percent instead of 30). Second, changes in atmospheric pressure. Against this background, the skin cells metabolism slows down and essential vitamins and minerals the body gets. How to arrive at your destination fresh and radiant, I know flight attendants who are on duty every day making not one air travel. We figured out how the flight attendants manage to stay on top.

Serum

The day before the flight, make easy peeling, and a couple of hours before flight, be sure to apply under your moisturizer serum. It will help to retain moisture in the skin, which is so necessary during long flights, and increase the cream.

Cream with SPF

Greasy, nourishing night cream is the best remedy for long flights. And don’t forget about sun protection. Despite the fact that you are inside the plane, not outside, you still need a product with SPF. Most aircraft glass-Untinted Windows, and at high altitude UV rays are more active (research has shown that at a height of nine thousand meters of the level of UV radiation is approximately two times higher than on earth), which means that the risk of harm to the skin increases

says Marsha Mccray, a flight attendant with 20 years of experience.

Hand cream

“When I use the hand cream (sometimes I just mix the vaseline with a few drops of eucalyptus oil and lavender), always apply it even on your neck. He also works as a hair gel (if they start shining, and they want a bit of smoothing), and can also be used to moisturize the cuticle to extend the life of manicure. If desired, the cream can be applied on your elbows and on your heels so that they become soft and manicured,” says the flight attendant Denise Kelly.

Water bottle

You probably know that during the flight it is necessary to drink a lot (and we’re not talking about coffee, or worse, alcohol!). Train yourself to drink one glass of water per hour. The first enemy of your skin on the plane — dry air. Comfortable humidity levels for a man from 30 to 70 percent, and on Board the aircraft it shall not exceed 15. Because of this the skin becomes red and scaly. If you don’t want to be the annoying passenger around every five minutes asking the flight attendant to bring him another glass of water, just use a trick from flight attendants Marion Cans. “Bring your empty bottle and ask the flight attendant to fill it with water,” she advises.

Mineral makeup

Flight attendants are required to do make-up before flying, but you better refrain from it. If no make not do, you may prefer mineral cosmetics. It contains less artificial substances and ingredients, it allows the skin to breathe, leaving it smooth, while still providing great coverage and smooth complexion,

— says one of the flight attendants of Virgin Atlantic Airways.

Light makeup

Use only the products creamy texture. They are easy to apply with your fingers (no brush needed), which means you will save space in her purse. In my makeup bag always lie bronzer, blush, pink lip balm and concealer. By the way, in many airlines flight attendants please be sure to paint the lips red. This shade is not only visually make the teeth whiter, but in General it gives you a rested and refreshed appearance

says Elizabeth Upshaw, the former JetBlue flight attendant.

No thermal waters

Despite popular opinion, hot water to use during the flight not worth it. Sprays “suck” water from the outside, and dry air of the plane it is almost there. In low humidity it evaporates almost instantly, drying the skin even more.

Coconut oil for hair

Before the flight I put on the hair coconut oil — RUB it on, leave to soak for 20 minutes, and then take a shower. Coconut oil leaves curls supple and shiny,

— advises the flight attendant of Makena Hammond.

Proper nutrition

Before eating I drink a glass of water, in which pre-add Chia seeds. They are rich in omega-3 and fiber and give a feeling of satiety. They are somewhat like little tadpoles, and the water turns into jelly. My colleagues and I eat lots of nuts and salads on Board, but savory foods trying to avoid, because they retain water

— adds Makena. During the flight, the gastrointestinal tract slows down, and this means that there is a heavy food is not worth it, otherwise, do not pass bloating.

Silk or cotton sleep mask

The skin around the eyes is very thin and delicate, so wrinkles in this area appeared earlier time, choose cotton and silk sleep mask.
