As CEO of a global brand, I am always on-the-go. From the airport to the board room, I want to make sure I look my best and, most importantly, well-rested! Here are a few of my favorite go-to products for travel to ensure you look fabulous from take-off to touchdown.

Moisturize, moisturize, moisturize!

Sitting on a plane for hours really drains the skin of hydration and elasticity. Keeping skin moisturized is key to a fresh and fabulous complexion, but slathering on a heavy moisturizer can leave the skin looking oily. I always recommend my Auto Pilot Radiance-Boosting Mask for frequent flyers -- it dries to a velvety matte finish for a brilliant, line-blurring moisture boost! Plus, it's clear application is perfect for on-the-go use -- no one can tell you're wearing it! I like to apply right before a flight and again 15 minutes before I land. My skin looks and feels soft, smooth, and nourished.

Stick to the essentials -- keep makeup light

The number one makeup mistake made most by travelers is caking on the foundation. The dehydrating effects of cabin pressure mixed with a thick application is a recipe for disaster. Skip the heavy-duty products and keep makeup light. Apply a primer (not to prime is still a crime!) to soothe skin and reach for a light-weight base, like my Off Duty Tinted Moisturizer. It will help keep skin moisturized and add just enough color to cheat a healthy sun-kissed glow. No flakey foundation here!

If you are suffering from blotchiness, blemishes, or pesky dark under-eye circles that a tinted moisturizer just won't cover, give my Mighty Concealer Pen a go. The pen delivers a smooth, long-lasting finish that blends into skin in a pinch to obscure any imperfections. Not to mention, the little gadget fits perfectly in a purse or small carry on for quick touch ups right before landing!

Skin still looking flat? Add a highlighter to the bridge of the nose, cheekbones, and cupid's bow to lift and perk up a tired looking complexion. My Enhancer crayon works wonders and is TSA-friendly!

Last-minute touch-ups

Tame your mane! The hours spent in your seat with your hair rubbing against the head rest can cause a frizz emergency! Control pesky flyaways and calm static with my Auto Pilot Pre-Foundation Skin Primer. A dab is all you need -- apply at the ends and smooth over areas that need extra attention.

Right before you step off the plane, refresh your complexion with my Auto Pilot Moisture Mist. One spritz and skin is immediately refreshed for your arrival!
