BEAUTY 1 6 Travel + Lifestyle Q: Why does flying take such a toll on our skin? Freya: Airplane air is extremely dry, dehydrating your skin, especially if it’s already dry. Low cabin pressure, prolonged sitting, and lack of sleep on long-haul flights can contribute to swelling, puffiness, and fatigue, made worse by adjusting to a new time zone. Q: What are the must-have skincare products for keeping skin hydrated during a flight? Freya: I always travel with essentials: serum, moisturiser, and eye cream. A hyaluronic acid serum like our Skin Caviar Liquid Lift locks in moisture layered with Skin Caviar Luxe Crème for hydration. Our Platinum Rare Haute Rejuvenation Eye Cream brightens eyes, while the Skin Caviar Mist refreshes skin mid-flight, reinforcing the barrier. Q: What’s the best way to refresh and revive tired skin after a long flight? Freya: My two tricks: Stick to water despite tempting in-flight drinks, and resume your skincare routine immediately. Cleanse upon arrival and apply a hydrating mask like Hydralift Firming Mask to rejuvenate tired, stressed skin. Q: Are there any express treatments or spa services at La Prairie that can help with pre-flight prep? Freya: Sydney International Airport’s La Prairie Art of Beauty Facial Suite is like a sanctuary offering luxury facials tailored to your skin’s needs.
