The perfect foundation for a flawless finish while jet-setting? Serums that bring new meaning to skin deep.
Kiehl’s Midnight Recovery Concentrate
A carry-on luggage long-haul flight hero, Midnight Recovery Concentrate barely needs an introduction. A facial oil packed full of lavender, evening primrose and (we wager) a little bit of magic, there’s a reason it’s been a Kiehl’s bestseller for over a decade.
Midnight Recovery is designed to be worn at night but it’s ideal for anytime your skin gets thirsty for a big drink.
Also, use it a few minutes before applying your foundation and you’ll find it’ll glide on smoother than Mario Lopez’s abdominals.
Philosophy Time in a Bottle for Eyes Daily Age-Defying Serum
Brightens, tightens, turns back time. Philosophy’s serum boasts more triple threat talent than Hugh Jackman on Broadway.
It not only works to reduce signs of ageing but contains patented ingredients specifically designed to protect your fragile eye area from external aggressors like pollution, dry air, and strangers taking up the armrest in the middle seat of the plane.
Okay, maybe not that but you’ll be so blissed out with your refreshed face that you just might not care about it.
Biologi BK Rejuvenating Eye Serum
Biologi was made for those that take comfort in knowing the who, what and where when it comes to their skincare.
Born and bottled in the lush hinterland of hyper-environmentally conscious Byron Bay, it’s no surprise that Biologi walks the walk when it comes to pure plant-to-bottle skincare. This is a company that’s fiercely proud of their philosophy of only packaging plant nutrients (essentially meaning all killer, no filler) and the proof is evident as soon as your first application. It feels thick and unusual, which is because there’s no water and filler creams to dilute the product (which we’re all used to).
Packed full of nourishing vitamin C, Gallic and Egallic acid from the Kakadu plum, their Rejuvenating Serum is like an antioxidant wheatgrass shot for your delicate eye area.
Within the first week you’ll notice a reduction in brightness and elasticity, with prolonged use you might even see it replacing the need for an added moisturiser over the top.
Trust Byron-ites to figure out a way to simplify things.
Giorgio Armani My Armani To Go New Iconic Cushion Foundation
We’ve matched these serums with this because Armani Beauty feels a makeup house that’s more of a celebrator of skin, rather than preoccupied with covering things up.
And that’s the brilliance of the Iconic Cushion Foundation; a few pats of product smooths imperfections, diffuses pores and gives off a glow without feeling cakey or heavy.
It’s effortless. Which is how things should feel while on vacation.
