This holiday season, millions of people will be traveling to visit their loved ones. Recently, The Houston Chronicle spoke to skin care expert Kate Sommerville who offered some tips on how to care for your skin while getting from A to B.


First, Sommerville said it's important to be conscience of your overall health while on a plane. This is why she brings antibacterial wipes to clean the airplane seating area and food trays.


Next, she said women shouldn't wear makeup on a plane, to keep skin fresh when they land.



Also, she recommended a gentle cleanser and a heavy moisturizer during the colder months to keep sin from dying out. She also suggests exfoliating two to three times a week in the shower.


Glamour Magazine warns that if you're traveling to a warm, humid place, then you might break out when you get there, so be sure to bring an oil-free facial cleanser, especially if you have oily skin. The news source also recommends drinking water on the plane because humidity levels can be low in the cabin.
