Hand Luggage: In-Flight Beauty Essentials

by Hanne on August 24, 2012

As I travel a lot I’m always make sure to bring my in-flight beauty essentials, especially on long haul flights. The flight from Oslo to Paris is only a two hour flight but I still packed my beauty essentials (a lighter version though) and I thought I’d show you what I usually keep in my hand luggage onboard.

As you can only bring beauty products less than 100 ml and all of them fitting inside a plastic bag you have to downsize your beauty essentials. Samples and travel sizes will make you able to bring more products.

❤ One of my must-have in-flight beauty essentials is a facial spritzer and one of my favorites is the Eau de Beaute from Caudalie. I love the cool “wake me up” feeling it gives as well as it is hydrating my skin.

❤ The Elizabeth Arden Eight Hour Cream is also great to keep with me onboard as it’s a multi purpose product – I use it on my lips, cuticles and dry patches.

❤ Traveling can be stressful so to stay fresh I always bring a deodorant with me. A small sample of my favorite perfume, Chanel Mademoiselle, is always is my hand luggage as well. I don’t spritz on board as it might bother other passengers but I always put on a little bit right before leaving the plane.

❤ A moisturizing hand cream is a must-have in onboard as the air is super dry, I love the Ecorganic Hand Cream from Estelle & Thild.

❤ On long haul flights I always remove my makeup after take-off and the mini Bioderma Crealine H2O is perfect to keep in my hand luggage.

❤ The Lierac Diopti Calm Anti-Fatigue Balm and Mask Eye Cream is cooling, soothing, calming, it contains a high percentage of refreshing floral waters and can be used to treat sensitive or irritable eyelids.

❤ A travel sized tooth paste helps me feeling fresh at any time and it’s always with me when I’m traveling.

I usually bring a moisturizer or a moisturizing mask as well, but only on long haul flights. A facial spritzer is enough for shorter flights.

What about you guys? What are your in-flight beauty essentials? :)

Great post, I love the caudalie spray as well! Am dying to get the Bioderma once I arrive in Paris coming Monday:-) the Lierac eye mask sounds intriguing! Is it also sold in the French pharmacies? X

This looks very reasonable! I always take facial/baby wipes with me, I just find them so versatile. I also take other products, but the wipes are essential.

I like to pop in a mascara and blush. I feel like it can instantly wake me up, especially if I have to go somewhere right after.

I bring my makeup as well, but try to bring less liquid makeup and more powders instead :)

Great post! I have family in the USA so I tend to travel long-haul and love hearing about what skin care products other people take on flights. Elizabeth Arden 8 Hour Cream is an essential item for me too – it’s always in my hand luggage when I fly!

I love putting together my inflight beauty / skincare bits. Its nice to feel fresh when your travelling and most things come in a travel size these days so its so handy.
The Elizabeth Arden Eight Hour Cream is such a great thing to take – so many uses its fab. I always take my Avene facial mist too. Its so refreshing & hydrating.
Great post :o)
