Flying Beauty



Great information!

1. Apply a serum and sunscreen before boarding your flight. Airplane cabins have low humidity, so applying a serum that delivers enhanced hydration and protection is vital. This serum acts as a vehicle to deliver moisture deep within the layers of the skin while providing an occlusive seal to help it retain moisture. You want to apply a sunscreen over the serum to filter damaging UV rays. Because you are closer to the sun when flying (even though you may not be in direct sunlight), skin is still exposed to harmful rays. Use a moisturizer with SPF 15+ for added protection.  For serum I use AMC by Noevir.  For my sunscreen I use Raysela by Noevir.  One for face, one for body.

2. Don’t mist your skin with a hydrating spray during flight. When the air is dry it looks for water wherever it can. So, when you spray your skin with a mist on a plane, the air literally robs skin of the applied moisture. Basically, misting mid-flight really doesn't do much at all. Instead, try applying another layer of moisturizer as it is much more hydrating and absorbed into the skin. 

3. Drink plenty of water. While drinking water isn't the most efficient way to hydrate the skin, it’s important for the health of your cells. 

4. After flying, use a mild facial scrub or light acid peel to remove surface dry skin cells that have accumulated. Be sure to avoid facial scrubs containing natural grains such as apricot kernels, walnut husks, and almonds, as the sharp edges can scratch and irritate the skin. Instead, go for a mild scrub like Noevir's Quick Recovery Mask.

5. Be sure to blot. In addition to drying skin out, flying can also increase breakouts for people with oily skin. If oily skin is dehydrated, oil production increases to combat dryness. Dry skin can create surface dead skin cell buildup, which, if not removed post-flight by using an exfoliating product, can cause oil and bacteria to be trapped under the skin, resulting in an increase of breakouts a day or two after flying. On longer flights, it’s important to blot skin with tissue or oil-blotting papers to reduce oil and acne-causing bacteria. Oil is a breeding ground for bacteria and the increased oil may exacerbate breakouts. When you arrive at your destination, immediately exfoliate and cleanse to keep skin clear.   I highly recommend Japanese Blotting Papers by Noevir....I never leave home without them.

6.Don’t forget to pack all your skin care products to keep your routine intact. Look for travel-size containers for carry on bags because sticking to a routine, especially when traveling, will keep your skin looking its best.  Noevir skincare trial packs are perfect for travel!

The Noevir Story

The Noevir Story The Noevir story begins in the Black Forest region of Germany. In 1978, while visiting the small town of Baden Baden, Noevir’s founder, Mr. Hiroshi Okura, was awed by the exceptionally healthy and radiant skin of the women in the area. The local women in Baden Baden used products formulated with herbs from the nearby Black Forest, renowned for its potent medicinal and cosmetic herbs and often referred to as "God's Own Medicine Chest.” For centuries, the world's nobility had flocked to the spa at Baden Baden for its luxurious mineral springs, mud baths, facials and massages. Mr. Okura knew he had found the secret to beautiful, healthy skin, and soon enlisted the help of his long-time friend and associate, Dr. Kazushige Suzuki. Together, they dedicated their careers to producing and marketing a skincare line that is highly effective, yet natural to the skin. This was the beginning to Mr. Okura’s dream—to help women around...

A Breakthrough in Smart Moisturizing

99+ Line Set Advanced Moisture Care for Skin Well moisturized skin is key to achieving a youthful, radiant and healthy complexion. Adequate moisture content not only allows the skin to function properly, but also helps shield against irritants and promote repair.
