With the holiday season upon us, many will be traveling to exciting new destinations or perhaps home to visit family and friends. As we pack our bags and look forward to fun times ahead, it’s important to be mindful of how jet lag can disrupt your body and skin.
When crossing time zones or spending hours on long haul flights your internal body clock shifts out of its natural rhythm…hello exhaustion, brain fog and moodiness. And the cabin air? It’s not your skins best friend. However, there are ways to combat this and feel good and look fresh while you travel.
The Jet Lag Recovery Kit… your new travel companion
Think of it as your in-flight spa ritual! It’s a compact travel friendly duo- a refreshing mist and revitalising gel with key essences to support you on your journey. Lemongrass and Grapefruit stimulate blood flow plus revive a tired mind and body, while warming Ginger supports circulation, muscle fatigue and will even aid digestion. Angelica and Peppermint bring relief from exhaustion and clear brain fog by enhancing mental alertness. 
How to use them
• Jet Lag Recovery Gel – during the flight support your nervous system and circulation by applying the gel to pulse points and the nape of your neck every 3 hours.
• Jet Lag Mist- use this hydrating and refreshing mist as often as needed by spritzing over your face and body.
Looking for a little more?
If available when you land book our Jet Lag Recovery Treatment at your destination spa. It’s a lovely complimentary experience designed to target the disruptions of travel by calming the nervous system, replenishing moisture and restoring vitality.
