Skincare is an area of life that is as important as healthcare. People often forget that skin is also an organ of the body, and it needs to be cared for just like any other organ. Skincare is far-reaching, and it can include your diet, your water intake, and the products you use. When you travel to different places, the climate and surrounding factors also change.
Just like your diet, the skincare routine should also change when you are going to a new place. You have to understand the climate of the place you are going to and opt for skincare products accordingly. Keeping an adaptable routine with the best skincare tips is a must when you are a frequent traveller.
Skin care tips for travellers and wanderers
Who does not want to experience freedom in his life? Travel gives you a lot of freedom, and if you take care of your skin, you can experience freedom from skincare problems, too. Here are some skin care tips to use with skincare for dry skin.
Keep your skin hydrated
When taking care of your skin during your trips, it is important to keep your skin hydrated. Regardless of where you are, you need to keep the skin moisture levels up in order to have plump, healthy skin. The skin hydration levels can fluctuate from place to place as humidity levels change.
For example, if you are going to a cold place with snow and low temperatures, you need to use a thicker moisturiser with a butter consistency. Our Morning Nectar Nourish & Hydrate Moisturizer is a beautiful formula that works in cold weather, too. You can choose a gel-like consistency for your moisturiser if you go to beach areas. Our Ubtan & Collagen Ultra-Light Gel Oil Free Moisturizer is a good choice for a beachy day out.
Sun protection
No matter where you travel to, remember that the sun can reach you. Even if you go to a cold region and the sun seems mild, you cannot skip SPF for your skin. The skin care regimen for dry skin should include a gel sunscreen or a lightweight cream sunscreen for the face and body. You should keep your arms and legs covered so that the body's skin remains safe from harsh sun rays.
When travelling, always carry a travel-sized sunscreen bottle with you. You can choose Sun Shield Sandalwood 50+Spf Sunscreen to wear in any weather. A strong SPF cream with SPF 50 or 70 is the best for protecting your exposed skin. If you want to use higher-powered SPF creams or lotions, you can opt for Sun Shield Aloe Vera 75+Spf Sunscreen Lotion from our collection.
We craft sunscreens from naturally cooling ingredients like aloe vera and sandalwood so your skin is protected from sunburns and breakouts. Our sunscreen formulas are moisturising and quickly absorbing. The sunscreens also soothe your skin so you do not face any redness or irritation.
Cleanse your skin daily
When going outside and travelling, your skin is exposed to a lot of dust and debris. The pollution levels around us are very high, and you should clean your face at least twice in 24 hours. If you have just travelled for long distances and feel that the skin needs to be refreshed, you should use a gentle and anti-pollution face wash. You need to use a face wash in the morning before stepping out and a cleanser after coming back from outside.
You can also use the double cleansing routine to clean your face before you go to bed. Do not skip your nighttime skincare routine when travelling. You should use travel-sized bottles to carry your skincare if the bigger ones are a hassle to carry. When travelling, you can use the same face wash in the morning and at night. Honey Gel Soothe & Nourish Foaming Face Wash from our collection is a soothing and softening face wash that will leave your skin clean and fresh.
If you struggle with clogged pores and acne when travelling because of the change of place, you should pick the Fresh Neem Pimple Control Face Wash. To give your skin a boost of energy and brightness, you should use our Coffee Energising Face Wash.
Use facial wipes
Facial wipes are a great way of keeping your face clean and fresh on the go. Facial wipes can also double up as cleaning tools for your makeup when you are on a trip. Wet wipes with skin-friendly extracts of cucumber and aloe can be soothing to your face.
Cooling wet wipes are best to use after a day in the sun. You should also go for alcohol-free wipes, which are made out of eco-friendly material. Eco-friendly materials like bamboo and recycled paper are good for the environment and your skin.
Stay on track with your skincare routine
When travelling, one of the mistakes that people often make is skipping skincare steps because they cannot carry the products in their luggage or they forget to do them. If you are on a break, your skin is not, and it needs care. In fact, during travel, your skin needs extra care because it is facing changes in its surroundings.
Therefore, you should stay consistent with your skincare routine. It might seem unnecessary and time-consuming, but it will relax your skin and mind after a day of travelling. You should pack your skin care in small containers and spray bottles so that you can use the products on the go.
Conclusion
Travelling is a wonderful experience that you should enjoy, and to enjoy the experience, you need to take care of your body and skin. Your skin should stay healthy and safe when you travel. To keep your skin nourished, you need to use products that suit you and help your skin cope with the travel conditions.
