This three-step mask is our favourite way to refresh dry, tired skin during a long-haul flight. The lotion purifies skin; the essence boosts radiance; and the gel mask locks in the benefits of step 2 so skin becomes softer and more luminous.

In a handy test tube container that takes up hardly any carry-on space, this includes some of the brand’s bestsellers, from the Pure Revival Peel to a serum (choose between collagen and licorice) and the Pure Deepsea Hydrating Mask, all in tiny 5ml sizes.

These floral-scented hand creams from Crabtree & Evelyn, which come packaged in a cheery musical tin this holiday season, are the perfect way to keep hands moisturised. Our tip: stash one in every bag and in your rental vehicle so you will have access to them at all times.

Apply the lip treatment just before you disembark: It contains a blend of nourishing oils to moisturise dry lips, and also has vitamins C and E which protect skin. During the flight, our go-to lip salve is the Nourishing Lip Balm Advanced Therapy, which comes in a creamy formula that keeps lips smooth and hydrated, thanks to ingredients like wild mango butter and sea fennel extract (the former protects while the latter softens the appearance of lines and wrinkles).

The 30ml bottle contains a botanical blend of essential oils that boosts skin’s protective barrier against environmental aggressors. Other plus-es: It absorbs easily into skin and has an invigorating scent.
