Whether you’re heading to a tropical beach, skiing the slopes, or heading to a family member’s house for a few days during the holiday season, travel can truly wreak havoc on your skin. Dry airplanes, changing climates, a disrupted routine and added stress can oftentimes lead to dullness, breakouts, and skin irritation, too.
Lucky for you, haruharu wonder has thoughtfully formulated travel-sized products that make it easier than ever to stay consistent in your skincare routine and keep your skin healthy and glowy, no matter where you jet off to.
The Challenges Holiday Travel Poses for Your Skin
Unfortunately, there are so many factors that can affect your skin during holiday travel. From airplane dryness to late nights, from changing climates to lack of sleep, all of these things can affect your skin’s moisture levels and barrier.
Additionally, sometimes it’s easy to forget to actually stick to your skincare routine while in another country, state, or zip code—this can cause your skin to react if you’re not taking care of it like you normally do.
Finally, holiday travel can sometimes mean testing out mini samples in your hotel bathroom. If you haven’t used those products before, you might want to think twice about slathering that stuff on your skin to avoid irritation. The haruharu wonder mini skincare set is your best bet to avoid irritation.
It’s best to pre-pack your tried-and-true skincare essentials (a gentle cleanser, hydrator, and sun protection) in compact, carry-on-friendly packaging.
Your Holiday Travel Skincare Routine, Step-by-Step
Step 1: Cleanse gently
Cleansing your skin after flights or long days during your vacation is important in keeping your skin happy and balanced. Here at haruharu wonder, we love double cleansing to help remove dirt, oil, and grime, without completely stripping your skin.
To double cleanse, first pump the haruharu wonder Black Rice Moisture Cleansing Oil (travel size) into your palm and massage onto your dry face. Then, take a small amount of water and massage it onto your skin—this will turn the oil into a milky white emulsion. Finally, rinse your face with lukewarm water until the product is fully removed.
Our cleansing oil does a great job of removing makeup and SPF without stripping your skin of its natural oils. The formula contains skin-loving ingredients including rice bran oil, jojoba, and olive oil. In clinical tests, this formula removed 98% of makeup after just one wash!
After you’ve cleansed with the oil cleanser, you can finish your double cleanse with the haruharu wonder Black Rice Moisture 5.5 Soft Cleansing Gel. Just apply an appropriate amount to your wet skin and gently massage for 30 seconds to form a mild lather. Rinse it thoroughly with lukewarm water. This pick contains coconut-derived surfactants, as well as bamboo and black rice for added hydration. It’s super gentle on even the most sensitive skin, and lightly lathers without drying out your face.
Finally, we can’t forget the haruharu wonder Black Rice Triple AHA Gentle Cleansing Gel. This cleanser is a good option to bring along with you on your travels to use 1-2 times per week—it provides gentle exfoliation without irritation, thanks to citric, mandelic, and tartaric acids.
Step 2: Layer in barrier support
As previously mentioned, airplanes and dry climates can really strip your skin. The haruharu wonder Black Rice Probiotics Barrier Essence (travel size) works wonders in adding hydration back into the skin and providing that glowy, dewy look. You can apply it to your skin right when you land, or even slather it onto your face in-flight, too.
This formula contains probiotics like galactomyces and bifida to help reinforce a healthy skin barrier. Plus, you can find a golden ratio (3:1:1) of ceramides, cholesterol, and fatty acids, which were clinically tested and proved to boost the skin barrier by 21% in two weeks.
Step 3: Don’t Forget Your Eyes
Ideal for long-haul flights or jet lag puffiness, the haruharu wonder Black Rice Bakuchiol Eye Cream feels lightweight but silky on the skin. The formula uses a plant-based retinol alternative (Bakuchiol) to gently brighten and firm your eye area without added irritation. This pick has been so effective in wrinkle-reduction that clinical tests show a reduction in wrinkle depth by 11% and improvement in moisture by almost 24% after four weeks.
This small and travel-friendly eye cream can be used both day and night—just take a rice-grain-size and divide between the tips of your ring fingers. Then, gently tap the cream onto the under-eye area and eyelids until fully absorbed.
Step 4: Shield Your Skin
It’s never a good idea to leave home without sunscreen, no matter which part of the world you’re heading to. The haruharu wonder Black Bamboo Top to Toe SPF Veil is a one-and-done SPF for both the face and body.
With an SPF 50+/PA++++, this sunscreen provides broad-spectrum UV protection, whether you’re skiing the slopes or slurping down a pina colada on a beach. This lightweight formula contains a Triple Hyaluronic Acid Complex for a boost of hydration, as well as vitamins C and E for antioxidant protection against environmental aggressors.
An elegant formula that leaves zero white cast and is reef-safe, this pick has been clinically shown to have 0.00 skin irritation in patch testing.
On-the-Go Skincare Tips
-
Build an airplane survival kit: Traveling by plane can really dry out your skin. Be sure to use a cleansing oil and barrier essence before boarding your flight. Additionally, you can slather on the barrier essence throughout the flight for added moisture, as well as eye cream around your eye area mid-flight, too.
-
Make sure you’re fully hydrated: It’s always a good idea to drink a lot of water, avoid alcohol and caffeine, and mist your skin with the haruharu wonder Black Bamboo Mist throughout the flight.
-
Stick to familiar products: It’s a good idea to opt for using travel-sized haruharu minis instead of hotel products. Unfortunately, most hotel toiletries can be drying or irritating.
-
Don’t stray from your routine: Wanna know what your skin really loves while traveling? Actually sticking to your regular skincare routine. While on-the-go, make sure to cleanse, tone, moisturize, and apply SPF every morning. At night, you can double cleanse, tone, add barrier essence, moisturize, and apply your eye cream, too.
The Final Takeaway
With the right routine and TSA-approved versions of your haruharu wonder favorites, glowing skin can come with you wherever the holidays take you. Always make sure to prioritize hydration, barrier support, and gentle formulas, and let the stress stay behind at security!
