Nuh, uh! Never Bring your Hand Close to your Face

No, it is not all that sexy for your skin really. Keep your hands off your face to minimize breakouts. Touching your skin again and again puts you at risk of picking up bacteria that can result in skin problems. Moreover, washing your hands with antibacterial hand wash also helps to keep the skin safe. (Image source:Getty)

Skip the Foundation For Good!

Take Control of that Skin Dripping Oil

If you are worried that your oily skin will go out of control while travelling, be prepared to take control. Bring blotting papers with you and dab the T-zone with it when necessary. This will absorb the excess oil without stripping the moisture away and you'll look fresher on your arrival. (Image source:Getty)

Say No to Long-lasting Lipsticks

Long-lasting lipsticks are worth your money, but they aren't so pretty on your skin; they dehydrate lips, making them dry. When travelling, use a gloss. You may reapply the gloss throughout the trip and your lips will look fresh. (Image source:Getty)

Apply and Reapply Hand Cream

Always check your handbag for hand cream before leaving. Hand cream should be used liberally throughout the trip; it keeps your hands from drying out. (Image source:Getty)

Liberate the Eyes

A long trip may leave you with puffy eyes. If you put crushed ice in a washcloth and dab it under the eyes, under-eye puffiness will reduce significantly. The cold treatment will help you look and feel fresher. (Image source:Getty)

Keep Beauty Essentials in your Kitty

Beauty essentials, such as body lotions, shower gels and soaps, talcum powders, and fragrances, shall always be with you when you're travelling. (Image source:Getty)

Moisturize

When you have to travel, apply intense moisturizer to the skin the night before you are scheduled to start for the vacation. This will increase hydration levels in your skin before you're exposed to the dehydrating effects of cabin pressure. (Image source:Getty)

Put Some Night Cream

When you think of taking a nap while travelling, dab some night cream around your eyes and don a sleep mask. When you wake up, you will look more relaxed and refreshed. (Image source:Getty)
