Hair styling cream
“If I bring one hair product with me on a trip, this Fekkai styling cream is it. It tames any humidity-related frizziness, gives my hair a bit of polish, and is easy to stow in luggage or my purse. Along with Sephora’s mini-flat iron for my bangs, that tends to be all I pack in terms of hair products … I’m pretty sure it’s been years since I actually brought along a brush. Oh well!” –Hilary George-Parkin, Fashion Editor

Soothing facial wipes
“In addition to filling a toiletry bag with space-saving minis for every step of my beauty routine, I also pack a smaller cosmetic case in my purse that’s purely reserved for airplane amenities—hand cream, lip balm, sanitizer, an eye mask, the works. One product that I won’t embark on long-haul flights without is Yes to Cucumbers Travel Facial Wipes—key for removing makeup and that grimy feeling you get from being on a plane, plus the cucumber scent puts me in a relaxed state of mind.” –Cristina Velocci, managing editor

Face moisturizer
“I would never go anywhere for so much as a night without this FUCKING AMAZING moisturizer that I live and die by: It’s 1.7 oz so totally feasible carry-on size, though it does take a bit of manipulation to fit the jar in the Ziploc bag alongside all the other, less necessary stuff. I must have it—any time I use anything else, my skin freaks out and I’m convinced it’s the one magic potion that is making my face chill for once.” –Rachel Krause, beauty editor

All-purpose moisturizer
“I don’t even run errands in my neighborhood without bringing lotion, so I definitely don’t travel without it. Yes, there are often small complimentary tubes of what purports to be lotion in most hotel rooms, but I need to moisturize my hands throughout my journey—whether traveling by car, bus or train—and not all lotion can be trusted; they can be too watered-down, too fragrant, etc., etc. Thus, I always have a drugstore staple in tow, like this one from Aveeno. Me on vacation with dry skin? Never.” –Leah Faye Cooper, editorial producer

Hydrating face mask
“I always slather Nuxe’s 24-hour mask all over my face at the start of a plane ride—by the time we touch down, my skin is soft and glowy.” –Bibi Dietz, news editor
