condensed air circulating the plane. And if you’re worried about looking crazy, do it anyway because you will not look weird with a face mask on. If anything you’re working smarter and preparing your skin for that vacation glow.
How To Protect Your Skin At Your Destination
When you get to your destination, remember this one simple word: sunscreen, and yes you need to reapply it. Sunscreen, bug spray and hydration are the 3 key ways to protect your skin while you’re at your destination.
The UV rays from the sun are a lot harsher in the islands because, in most instances, all you’re surrounded by is the sun when you’re there. That’s why you need to apply your sunscreen and continue to apply it as the directions on the bottle says to.
Bug spray will help repel bugs so you won’t be subjected to terrible and possibly deadly bug bites.

5 Essentials You Need This Summer For The Ultimate Vacation
Here are 5 essentials you need this summer for the ultimate vacation:
- Sunscreen: This cannot be stressed enough! It needs to be SPF 30 or higher and you need one for both your face and body (or a great 2 in 1). Not using sunscreen when you are exposed to the sun will age you faster and can possibly aid in the development of skin cancer.
- A lightweight moisturizer: This can be useful on the plane to keep your skin from drying out during the plane ride, but it will also help on the island when you need to moisturize but don’t want anything heavy on your skin to cause you to sweat more.
- Sunglasses: Protect your eyes and face from the sun. The sun’s rays won’t only harm your face but your eyes as well.
- A hat: Even the ultimate fashionista needs a hat on vacay to protect their head and skin from the sun.
- A water bottle: Yes, this may add a little more weight to your luggage but an empty water bottle to fill up so you can stay hydrated all day long is the key to staying cool and refreshed during your tropical vacay.
Wherever you decide to travel this summer, just remember these 5 simple essentials and do all the research that you can. A relaxing vacation doesn’t have to ruin your future skin.
