Your comfort comes first

Always make sure comfort comes first while traveling. You can be stylish while traveling, but, if you’re uncomfortable, it shows. Pick your outfits according to your destination weather, travel distance and mode of transport, then assemble your look. Take lots of accessories like sunglasses, hats, scarves, tiaras and shoes, they do wonders! Altering and putting them together in different elegant ways can transform any outfit (Shalini Chopra).

‘…accessories can transform any outfit…’

Travel light but look fashionable

To travel light and look fashionable, you need to take clothes that are easy to use more than once, clothes that coordinate with a number of other outfits and are comfortable to wear. Denims, shorts, stretchable basic coloured leggings, cotton tops and a versatile dress for night parties make traveling comfortable yet fashionable. Denims are an essential for any trip because they are easy to wear, give ultimate comfort and are always in style. (Rudrita Chatterjee).

(Tanya Virmani).

Travel with comfortable footwear

Travel involves lots of walking, so if you don’t have comfortable footwear, your journey might be less enjoyable. Always take a pair of sneakers, flip flops and boots or a formal pair of flats depending on the weather of the country you’re visiting. If you’re going to the beach then take lots of beach wear with a couple of party outfits. If you are going to a place like Greece, then you need to pack a lot of whites to get stunning pictures during your vacation. Accessories have the ability to make or break your look, so travel with some costume jewellery to compliment your outfit along with bags, belts and hats. (Ayushi Anand).

It can be difficult to carry a lot of trendy clothes while traveling so the trick is to travel light and carry comfortable outfits. Take outfits that have breathable fabric and don’t require much washing or ironing. Carry a few trendy pieces in terms of tee-shirts, basic shorts or denims and statement shoes that you can mix and match every day. Wear clothes that you feel comfortable in, if you wear something with confidence, you will automatically look good. (Ankit Sharma).

Essential Travel Skincare Tips for a Perfect Skin

It’s easy to slip up on your skincare routine when you travel but it can cause chaos to your skin! Besides your routine, your skin has to endure climate change, dry airplane air, and changed eating and drinking habits.

Taking care of your skin when you travel benefits healthy-looking skin, avoids breakouts and keeps your skin happy. To maintain perfect skin when traveling, here are some essential travel skincare routine tips.

Pack Your Every-Day Products

Skin can become sensitive if you change your products drastically, so keep it simple and consistent. It’s not ideal to try new products or switch your skincare routine when traveling. Your travel skincare pattern should look the same as your home routine. Cleanser, toner, serums, moisturizers and SPF. You may want to change your serum for one that is based on the climate, but stick to your routine.

“…simple and consistent…”

Familiarise Yourself with the Climate

When you pack your usual skincare products, keep in mind the weather at your destination. If you’re in winter at home, using your winter routine might be too hydrating in a tropical destination where you’ll want to pack the products you use in your summer months.

“…weather at your destination…”

Always Pack Your Gentle Stuff

Skin can easily go haywire, so having your back-to-basics gentle products like a gentle cleanser, gentle moisturizer should be packed. This can be as simple as your favourite face wash from the store, sometimes simple is best. While trying to copy your same routine at home, having your most gentle stuff on hand can really help in case your skin starts to break out.

“…sometimes simple is best…”

Leave Strong Acids and Retinols behind

There is no harm in taking a week off of your retinol and your skin will probably thank you for it. If your skins does break out, retinol can make it more difficult to combat fluctuating skin situations. However, you know your skin best, so if you feel you can get away with it, especially in a similar climate, then take it along but be cautious and maybe use it every other day instead of nightly.

“…you know your skin best…”

Spot Patches help stop breakouts

Spot patches have become a popular beauty and skincare secret for when a new spot begins. They tend to speed things up, or keep them from becoming a bigger problem so pack a few patches to make sure you’re ready for any new breakouts while traveling.

“…make sure you’re ready…”

Stay Hydrated when Travelling

Hydration from climate change not only effects your skin but also your body, drink lots of water to hydrate your skin and body from within. The ultimate secret is to drink small amounts frequently, aiming for about 250 ml every hour, especially if you’re flying.

“…ultimate secret…”

Sunscreen is Vital on Your Travels.

It doesn’t matter where you’re heading, always pack your sunscreen and wear it on your travels. Don’t think just because you’re in an airport or on an airplane that you can skip your SPF. There are always lots of windows everywhere which means UVA is hitting your skin at some time. Carry your SPF in your bag whenever you’re out and about, and apply it to save your skin from getting burnt.

“…UVA is hitting your skin…”

It’s imperative to take along a Moisturizing Mask or Cream

At the end of long travel days your skin might feel a little dry and in need of a moisturizing mask or cream. A little bit of skincare for travel days like a hydrating moisturizer, and a good lip ointment can help combat dry air. It’s also a good thing to have an airplane skincare routine, avoid wearing makeup on airplanes, especially long haul flights, rather use your hydrating serum, moisturizer and SPF remembering to hydrate your lips and create a good barrier for your skin.

“…help combat dry air…”

Have a Post Travel Skincare Treatment

When you return from a trip, your skin has been in the sun and elements more than usual so have a simple and gentle post-vacation treat. Enjoy a good exfoliating mask if your pores feel filled with makeup. If you’ve spent a lot of time in the sun, try a good hydrating moisturizing mask and lots of hydrating serums and moisturizers to bring your skin back to life and prevent peeling from being in the sun.

“…bring your skin back to life…”

Now that you know these easy essential beauty travel tips you can keep your skin looking healthy and happy.

Safe Travel Tips

Are you planning a trip soon? We’d like to share some best travel practices with you that we’ve picked up from medical professionals. Here’s what you should focus on, and a few things you don’t need to worry about while on your trip.

Lessen risks

If your trip is essential and if you’re committed to social distancing and mask-wearing, it’s possible to lessen, but not eliminate COVID-19 risks during travel.  If you really need to check in on distant family, attend an important socially distanced event, or even feel the need to just get yourself and your children out, there are ways to decrease COVID-19 risks.

Wear a mask

If you want to drive, plan your route with minimal stops that lead directly to your destination. If you want to fly, remember everyone on board a plane should wear a mask. Choose a window seat as far from the bathroom as possible and keep the overhead vent open and toward your face. Disinfect your hands after you’ve settled into your seat, and again before and after you touch your face, such as when you remove your mask to eat.

Maintain physical distance

Of all the precautions you can take while travelling, maintaining physical distance is crucial to decrease the spread of COVID-19. The moment you leave home, remember to wear a face mask and remember to wear it correctly. Try to avoid large crowded areas, wash or sanitize your hands frequently and try your utmost to avoid touching public surfaces.

Wash your hands

Hotel lovers need not despair if they are committed to masks and safe social distancing.  If your hotel doesn’t provide keyless entry, there is no need to stress because you’ll need to touch the door handle to get into your room anyhow.  Always just remember to wash your hands and your key card once you’re inside. Places where you can lodge and have your own kitchen and laundry facilities gives you more control over cleanliness.

Don’t crowd

Also remember to avoid packed elevators and don’t crowd around reception while checking in or out. Most accommodations have applied extra precautions and cleaning services so it’s a good idea to look out for places that provide their employees with pandemic support.  For example, training, equipment, and other measures, this translates into a safer environment for everyone.

Outdoors over indoors

Preparing your own food or getting takeaways is safest. But it’s still possible to eat in a restaurant. For this reason choose a place that offers outdoor seating rather than indoor. Consider the size and airflow of the space, the number of people sharing that space, and the amount of time you spend in that space. Choose to eat on a patio where everyone wears a face mask except when sipping or supping. When possible, avoid peak times and don’t linger longer than necessary.
