N.Y.C. dermatologist Francesca Fusco prefers individual packets, which are less likely than bigger sizes to dry out. LA Fresh, Eco-Beauty Trial & Travel Pack, $10/18; soap.com. 02 of 10 Forget the Sweats Bauer Griffin Stylist Cher Coulter recommends layering breathable basics—cotton T-shirts, light wool sweaters—over tight, stretchy jeans, which maintain their shape after hours of sitting. Finish with a drapey scarf, which can double as a blanket, and slip-on ankle boots. "Wear a shoe that needs a sock," she says. "There's nothing worse than going barefoot through security." 03 of 10 Downsize Your Must-Haves Time Inc Digital Studio At home, decant a favorite shampoo, conditioner, body lotion, and night cream into clear, travel-size empties. Then go to 3floz.com for mini versions of products you can't transfer, like hairspray. Bobbi Brown, Empties, $10; bobbibrowncosmetics.com. 04 of 10 Pack with Pouches Courtesy Photo We all want to travel light, but not if it means sacrificing our wardrobe choices. Zip-up packing cubes ($8–$30; eaglecreek.com) come in a variety of sizes and keep clothes wrinkle-free and neatly compressed. (They even have separate compartments for laundry.) 05 of 10 Don't Fade Out Time Inc Digital Studio "The color always drains from my face when I fly," says L.A. makeup artist Jillian Dempsey, who says to carry concealer and a cheek stain for in-flight touch-ups. Even better? Invest in a travel-friendly palette, such as Benefit Cabana Glama ($36; benefitcosmetics.com), which contains small sizes of cult favorites like Hoola bronzer and Posie tint. 06 of 10 Toss Hair to the Side John Shearer/WireImage Even the most voluminous waves fall flat on transatlantic flights, and buns don't make it easy to lean back and sleep. So hairstylist Enzo Angileri suggests you try a low side pony, like the one he created for Charlize Theron. "It's beautiful," he says, "and simple enough to redo without a mirror." 07 of 10 Get Zen Time Inc Digital Studio Block out crying babies and chatty seatmates with noise-canceling headphones and a relaxing aural meditation, like one from Jeffrey Thompson, founder of the Center for Neuroacoustic Research in Carlsbad, Calif. (available on iTunes). "The specific pulses of sound activate calming theta brain waves," he says. Beats, Studio Colors in pink, $300; at Best Buy. Theta Meditation System 2.0, $12; amazon.com. 08 of 10 Maximize Moisture Time Inc Digital Studio "High altitudes are super-drying," says Jillian Dempsey, who advises you spritz skin with a hydrating mist a couple of times during the flight. We love Jurlique's—one whiff of the soothing rose scent and you'll barely notice the turbulence. Jurlique, Rose Moisture Plus Rosewater Balancing Mist, $22/1.7 fl. oz.; jurlique.com. 09 of 10 Snack Sensibly Time Inc Digital Studio "It's tricky to eat healthy when you're traveling," says Dr. Alejandro Junger, founder of the Clean Program (Gwyneth Paltrow is a fan of this cleanse). Pack good-for-you treats like hot-air popcorn, nuts, and fruit. And don't forget to stash a few under-200-calorie health bars in your luggage for when you arrive (we like Gnu bars—they're delicious and loaded with fiber).
