Travel Tips from a Flight Attendant Turned Esthetician: Keep Your Glow While You Go
Let’s be honest—most of us prep for vacation like total rock stars. We’re booking facials, doing our nails, buying new outfits, and getting ourselves completely vacation-ready.
But then... something happens. As soon as we land, it’s like the wheels fall off the self-care bus. We indulge more than usual (hello, long days, late nights and extra calories and cocktails), and by the time we return home, we’re not refreshed—we’re wrecked.
But it doesn’t have to be that way.
As a former flight attendant turned esthetician, I’ve learned a few things about travel and wellness.
One of the biggest tips?
Carving out small moments to care for your body and mind while you travel makes a huge difference in how you feel when you come home.
Here’s a simple and effective feel-good beauty ritual you can do in the morning or evening to help calm your soul and support your central nervous system—no spa appointment necessary.
Your 5-Step Travel Beauty Ritual:
Pack your Alitura Essential Discovery Travel Set and a travel candle to create a calming, spa-like vibe wherever you are.
1️⃣ Cleanse: Start with the luxurious Pearl Cleanser, massaging it into your skin to gently remove impurities.
2️⃣ Detox: Smooth on the iconic Alitura Clay Mask and let it dry completely. While it works its magic, take a moment to unwind—light your travel candle, cue up some tropical chill music, and simply soak in the calming vacation vibes.
3️⃣ Rinse & Refresh: Rinse the mask off with a warm washcloth, then splash your face with cold water and gently pat dry.
4️⃣ Nourish: Follow with Alitura Moisturizer or Night Cream on your face, neck, and décolletage.
5️⃣ Glow: Finish with Alitura Body Lotion on clean, damp skin to hydrate and smooth. Reapply as needed for that vacation glow.
This mini ritual takes just a few minutes but can help you stay grounded and glowing throughout your vacation.
Remember—vacation is about rest, pleasure, and coming home better than when you left. With a little intention and a travel-sized toolkit, you can have it all!
Head here to grab your Travel Discovery Kit and get ready for glowing skin, grounded moments, and a vacation experience that actually feels like nourishing self-care.
Live Beautifully,
Lori
