Things That Happen To Your Skin When You Fly

airplane exercisesFlying and traveling is fun. You get to explore new lands, see amazing faces, and cross so many things off your bucket list. Whether you’ve been flying for long or for the first time, it’s essential to note that certain things happen to your skin in the airplane. We’re going to discuss those things and how you can prevent them. 

Humidity Makes Your Skin Lose Moisture

Airplanes have a humidity of 20% while the Sahara desert is said to have about 25%, making planes dryer than the desert. What this leads to is a dehydrated skin that can be uncomfortable and causing flaking, fine lines, and cracks. The best way to avoid this is to get as much water as possible to refill your body with liquid to keep you hydrated.  

Pressurized Environment Affects Blood Flow That Causes Itching 

Blood clotting resulting from reduced blood flow in your body may happen when you’re on a flight. The pressurized environment and the fact that you’ve been sitting down for hours with little movement are usually the reason for this and can result in severe skin issues like itching. You can avoid blood clots by sitting up for a while when the seat belt light is not on. Some people also suggest compression socks because they enclose your calves and help blood flow easily. 

Sunburn 

Believe it or not, you can get severe sunburn while flying to your escapade destination. While flying, you’re 8,000 feet closer to the sun, and the airplane windows are not UV rays resistant. Hours of exposure, especially when you’re sitting near the window, can cause sunburns that make you feel uncomfortable when you get to your destination. Before getting on the plane, rub on some sunscreen with SPF for protection. Skincare products from FotoPharmacy.com can help you protect your skin.

Reduced Glow 

Air flight can be stressful. The stress starts from when you enter the airport, flying, and reaching your destination. Flying in a pressurized can affect blood flow to the skin, which can reduce its glow. While the stress accumulates when you’re in the air, there are some things you can do to relax and reduce anxiety. Listening to music while traveling works wonders for many people. You can also feel better by staying hydrated and making sure you’re sitting comfortably. 

Oily Skin

When your skin dries out due to dehydration, your body wants to compensate for that by releasing oil. That’s why some people experience oily skin after flying for hours. You can get rid of the oily skin by having a proper cleansing after the flight. Oil-free moisturizers are particularly useful in this situation, helping you to regain a quality skin tone. 

Skin Rashes

Many people report having skin rashes and irritation during or immediately after a long flight. The reasons for these are wearing tight clothing and skin allergies and inflammation as a result of your skin having continuous contact with an irritant. You can reduce skin rashes by wearing 100% cotton clothing during flights. Make sure you wear loose clothing to minimize skin contact and improve airflow.
