As many of us are packing bags and heading off for Easter holidays, we’ve been thinking about what it means to keep your skin in good shape while travelling.
Between dry plane air, long drives, disrupted routines, and changing climates, your skin goes through more than you think. So instead of overpacking or abandoning your routine entirely, we’re sharing how we approach skincare on the move and what's worth bringing.
Travel-size products are not only for getting through airport security (most of our products are already under the 100ml limit), but they make your travels more seamless.
When you’re moving around or living out of a carry-on, the last thing you want is bulky bottles weighing you down. Our streamlined kit makes it easier to stay consistent. Our travel kit is designed exactly for this, everything you need, nothing you don’t. For products not made in travel friendly sizes, picking up refillable travel containers from your local pharmacy is an easy way to bring just enough. We usually do this with our favourite cleanser L'EAU BRUTto save some space and weight.
DON'T FORGET DEODORANT
It sounds obvious, but forgetting deodorant can be disasterous (and smelly).
After a long-haul flight, a delayed train, or even just a full day driving, having deodorant on hand is the fastest way to freshen up. Ourdeodorantsare small and practical, but more importantly they makes a massive difference in getting ready to go when you arrive.
AsNo.1andNo.2already carry notes of luxury fragrance, we sometimes don't even bother bringing cologne anymore... Saves some space...
WTF DO I BRING?!
When packing you just want to bring the essentials, you don't need the whole bathroom cabinet. Here is our official carry-on approved list:
Cleanser: To reset your skin mid-flight or as soon as you land. Pump it into a travel container if you don't want to bring the whole thing.
ASH Scrub: To slough off dead skin and buildup after long transit. The 30ml version of course...
LE FIX sheet mask: essential on flights to counteract dry cabin air. They're on sale while stocks last!
AMPM: To restore your skins hydration. As a versatile day and night cream this formulation is ideal for travel
THE EYE CREAM: for tired, puffy eyes after early mornings or late arrivals
Something to freshen up: We love carrying a hypochlorous acid spray to cleanse and freshen up continuously throughout a travel day. It's also worth investing in some cleansing wipes like these from Ursa Major (they exfoliate too!)
OUR STORY
Narcyss is a wellness brand for the modern citizen that is inclusive, aspirational and inspirational. We believe it’s ok to enjoy a Negroni or two at dinner and to do yoga in the morning, it’s ok to get high and go running when you come down, it’s ok to do what you can to age in a healthy way, not in an ”anti” way. The Narcyss philosophy of “a life well lived”, modern wellness and healthy ageing is a welcome perspective in the beauty industry.
