We’ve already established how much we’re crushing on Esha Gupta’s casual, chic airport style. But that got us wondering. How does she have that gorgeous glow on her face at the airport, sans makeup? More importantly, how do we get that flawless glam during our travels?

Not to worry, we’ve got you covered. Read on for some #DesiGirlTraveler tips for a barefaced, minimal look that will work wonders the next time you’re jet setting around the world. Oh, and these tips will stand the test of that drying effect airplanes can have on your skin.

1. Moisturize, Moisturize, Moisturize.

Never forget this step before a flight. It’s the best way to keep your skin looking fresh.

2. Concealer FTW!

Dab a little bit of your go-to concealer in the area under your eyes, around your nose and mouth. These areas are usually prone to more darkness, visible veins, or redness.

3. Lashes are a Must.

A thick coat of mascara may be a little excessive, so opt for a double duty product like clear mascara. Yes, I said double duty. You can use it on your brows to keep your hair in place as well.

4. Brows can Frame your Face.

Use a brown eyebrow pencil to fill in and emphasise your brows. Brows can really change your look. Just make sure you don’t go overboard.

5. Barely-There-Lips.

Try a moisturising lip balm with a hint of colour. Maybelline’s Baby Lips is a great option.

Pack a little makeup case with these products in your hand carry for regular touch-ups. If you’ve got a liquid concealer, you can always empty some out into a smaller container (up to 3oz). We hope you feel like a celebrity the next time you hit the airport!
