6. Keep makeup to a minimum

No one wants to board a plane looking like a total mess, but it’s going to be a lot easier to clean your face mid-flight if you’re wearing just enough to make you look alert.  Do you really want to be scrubbing layers of foundation and eye makeup off in the tiny cabin bathroom? Not to mention how bad makeup can run – and clog your pores – after your skin has been exposed to germ-filled air for 16 hours straight. If you really must wear makeup, we’d recommend putting on just a little concealer and tinted lip balm. You can always apply more once you’re about to land.
