Have Air Repair Kit, Will Travel

Mar 21, 2007

I don't know which part of air travel is worse. Cramming your beauty and grooming stash into a plastic baggy so that the creepy guy behind you in the security line can see that you have to use "clinical strength" deodorant. Or, sucking in other people's hot air in a confined space during the flight. If only surgical face masks would hit the fashion scene, I'd be so set. Next time I fly, I'm hauling this dandy Air Repair Kit from Visage Studio with me. A collection of spa-quality products for oxygen-parched jet-lagged skin, the kit was designed by skincare guru Denise Spanek for before and after flight recovery. Included is a foaming Desquacrem facial cleanser from Sothys of Paris, one each of Karin Herzog's Oxygen Face Cream and Essential Mask, an Air Repair Skin Vitality Mineral Mist, a protective Air Repair Rescue Balm, a deluxe hand and nail cream from Terme of Italy and a travel case with extra room for your deodorant. And although the Air Repair Kit was designed to be used before and after you fly, all the products are under the 3-oz. carry-on limit except the mist. But the kit comes with a perfectly sized travel container for the mist so that you can transfer a portion of it into the container and stash it along with the other items into your fashionable Zip Lock bag. Brilliant. Now my future fellow cabin-mates can breathe in the good smells while I give myself an in-flight spa facial. Get it at VisageStudio.com. Photo: Air Repair Kit from Visage Studio, $195.
