Prep for the Red Eye…And Be Bright On Time [SPONSORED]
Eyes are the most telltale sign of a well-rested woman and fewer things wreak havoc on rest than travelling on long-haul red-eye flights. With a little preparation and planning, you can emerge from your flight looking fresh and bright-eyed, no matter how tired you might feel from your travels.
1. In the weeks and days before your flight, ensure skin is gently exfoliated. This is an important step to get rid of the top layer of dead skin cells that can prevent products from fully absorbing into the skin.
2. To freshly cleansed, damp skin, apply a special product around the eyes prior to take off, like new Estée Lauder Advanced Night Repair Eye. An intensely hydrating, fast-penetrating, lightweight serum, it leaves the eye area soothed and refreshed. Depending on your destination and your preference in formulation, it comes in a lightweight serum or a rich gel crème. Both formulas work to target every key sign of aging around the eyes and of course, are carry-on sized!
3. Before boarding and during your flight, moisturize from the inside by drinking plenty of water. Alcohol and caffeine can have a dehydrating effect, so drink sparingly.
4. If possible (we know, we know, an impossibly tall order on long-haul flights), avoid reclining your seat the entire way back, as it can encourage fluid retention in the eyes, causing bags to develop.
5. Regardless of your sleep position, be sure to take a few strolls throughout the flight when the “fasten seatbelt” sign is off. The blood circulation triggered by walking does wonders for warding off bloat and keeping skin looking fresh.
