Natural moisturiser 'essential for air travel'
Natural moisturiser is absolutely essential to maintain your skin's radiance – but this becomes especially important when you're jetting off on your holidays.
The atmosphere in an airplane can wreak havoc with your complexion, as filtered air is pumped around to keep the optimum comfort conditions in the cabin.
Facialist Una Brennan, who counts Sienna Miller as one of her clients, told Daily Mail readers that, as well as regularly applying moisturiser in-flight, there are some pampering steps that you can take prior to setting off on your journeys.
"Exfoliate before you board to buff away dead cells and prepare the skin for moisturiser. Smooth on a mask containing hyaluronic acid to drench the skin in moisture and prevent water loss," she suggested.
In addition, Ms Brennan reminded people to choose a moisturiser with SPF protection, especially when you're in a window seat, as UV rays will penetrate the glass at high altitude.
Remember to pack your conditioner as well, ladies, as trichologist Iain Sallis has said that they are essential to stop your hair from becoming sun damaged this summer.
