Ready for Takeoff: Mile High Essentials

Few things beat the thrill of an upcoming holiday. But travel – particularly if you’re flying - can take a toll on your skin. Plane cabin air, lack of sleep, and adjusting to a new environment when you land may contribute to your skin looking and feeling dry and dull. Inspired by the excitement (and skincare challenges) of travel, our new Mile High range has been designed to help your skin arrive looking like you’ve been upgraded to first class.  

Why your skin feels dry from flying

Cabin humidity is around 20%, which is much lower than most environments on the ground. (For example, humidity in an office is typically around 40-70%.) Then there’s the constant air conditioning - it’s no wonder your skin might feel parched during the flight and upon arrival.

Your carry-on skincare essentials

All three products in our Mile High range focus on hydration, giving your travel-weary skin immediate topical replenishment. Apply them individually or layered together to create your own air travel skincare routine. They’re designed to be carry-on-friendly: each product is less than 100mL and packaged with lids and caps to help prevent spills. Best of all, they save you from having to haul your entire skincare kit with you on the plane.

Mile High Hydrating Serum

This gel-serum acts as a lightweight, hydrating base layer for your in-flight skincare routine. It’s made with Squalane, Panthenol and Glycerin to help soothe dry skin and support your skin's moisture barrier. Aloe Vera, Bisabolol, and Arnica also help contribute to a comforting, soothed skin effect. You might be feeling tired, but your complexion won’t with a hydrated-looking glowy finish.

Mile High Multi-Use Mask

This mask can be layered/ painted on the plane as an overflight leave-on mask or massaged in as barrier-supportive moisturiser. Its clever formula includes Hyaluronic Acid, Panthenol, and Glycerin for moisturising and hydrating benefits, plus Niacinamide to help visibly brighten your skin tone and enhance radiance. Allantoin, Bisabolol, and Cucumber Extract also help to soothe dry/ parched skin. When you (finally) reach your accommodation, you can also use as a quick 10-minute wash-off mask.

Mile High Hydra Mist

Spritz this super-fine mist for take-off, landing, whenever the seatbelt sign is on, and any time in-between. It drenches your skin to help moisturise, refresh, and comfort with a blend of rejuvenating ingredients. Key ingredients on the in-flight mist menu: Panthenol, Ceramide NP, Squalane, Aloe Vera, Allantoin, Ectoin, Glycerin, Vitamin E, Cucumber and Green Tea Extracts.

Tips to keep your skin feeling hydrated while travelling
  • Before you board: Cleanse your face, then apply Mile High Hydrating Serum and a light layer of Mile High Multi-Use Mask as a moisturiser.

  • During your flight: Refresh and replenish with Mile High Hydra Mist as often as needed. If your skin feels dry mid-flight, apply a layer of Mile High Multi-Use Mask as a leave-on mask.

  • When you land: Complete your usual skincare routine, including the Mile High Hydrating Serum and Mile High Multi-Use Mask. Bring Mile High Hydra Mist in your handbag or backpack for skin hydration and comfort throughout your trip. 

Whether you're hopping on a quick flight or settling in for the long haul, our Mile High range helps to keeps your skin feeling hydrated and comfortable from take-off to touchdown, and beyond.
