You&#8217;re always chasing a different time zone. It takes a toll on my skin, because I need a lot of hydration, especially in winter. I am never sleeping in a room that doesn&#8217;t have a humidifier, but when I travel, it&#8217;s not always possible to have one. I try not to wear makeup on the plane. I make sure I moisturise right before I get on; I have hand cream in my bag, so that I can reapply every time I wash my hands. I never consume alcohol on a plane, first of all, because I&#8217;m not a big drinker, but it gives you a headache, it can dehydrate you\u2026 I try to drink at least 16 ounces of water for every 45 minutes I&#8217;m on that plane.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"sc-9a00e533-0 eZyhnA\">What is your skin-saving travel beauty routine?<\/p>\n<p class=\"sc-9a00e533-0 eZyhnA\">Everyone wants to know if I have stealth beauty tips, but honestly, my beauty tips are very, very basic. I use <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/DIw3D0EPe3T\/\" class=\"sc-f9178328-0 iCaRzc\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Christine Chin<\/a> products; she&#8217;s a facialist here in New York and has been giving me facials for over 20 years. She has a wonderful face cream that&#8217;s really rich, but also calming. I also [have] a wonderful spray dry oil [by <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/us.nuxe.com\/products\/huile-prodigieuse-100ml\" class=\"sc-f9178328-0 iCaRzc\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Nuxe<\/a>]. I use that just on the ends of my hair, but also on my elbows, on my feet, anywhere I need a little silky moisture. And then as I said, I just drink, drink, drink, drink, drink as much water as I can.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"sc-9a00e533-0 eZyhnA\">Also just getting enough sleep. Sleep makes a big difference, not only in your skin, but in your concentration, your mood, in your digestion.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/1773324195_923_grey-placeholder.png\" class=\"sc-5340b511-0 gUePlo hide-when-no-script\" aria-label=\"image unavailable\"\/><img decoding=\"async\"   src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/p0n5v0d3.jpg.webp.webp\" loading=\"lazy\" alt=\"Courtesy of Padma Lakshmi Lakshmi believes that hydration is key to batting jet lag and fatigue while on the road (Credit: Courtesy of Padma Lakshmi)\" class=\"sc-5340b511-0 hLdNfA\"\/>Courtesy of Padma LakshmiLakshmi believes that hydration is key to batting jet lag and fatigue while on the road (Credit: Courtesy of Padma Lakshmi)<script async src=\"\/\/www.instagram.com\/embed.js\"><\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The reality of globetrotting is that you can get tired very quickly.
