Whether you’re chasing sunsets or stuck in a middle seat, this curated line-up ensures you arrive as radiant as you left. From in-flight glow savers to climate-proof fragrances, these no-fuss, high-impact heroes deliver five-star glamour at 30,000ft and beyond. Consider this your passport to looking, feeling, and smelling impeccable, no matter where your itinerary takes you.

Date Night

A modern ode to Arabic beauty rituals, this mist wraps hair in date extract’s antioxidant shield and hyaluronic acid’s quenching power. Climate-proof, heat-proof, and guilt-proof (no grease) – just spritz-and-go shine for effortlessly luminous locks wherever your travels take you.

La Dolce Vita

This luminous fragrance captures the essence of a Mediterranean breeze through rare Neroli oil, distilled by a 7th-generation Ligurian artisan. Sparkling with citrus-kissed petitgrain and anchored by cedarwood, it’s an olfactory postcard from the Amalfi Coast – no passport required. A sun-drenched Italian escape, bottled.

Peep Show

The secret to looking like you actually slept on your red-eye? These hydrogel patches. Infused with caffeine and peptides, they work in just 10 minutes to erase signs of fatigue, while their stay-put design means you can apply them anytime, anywhere.

Golden Hour

Fake that ‘just-back-from-vacation’ glow, even if you haven’t left the country. This multitasker delivers instant radiance, from the wet-look champagne highlighter to blurring cream-powder contours. Cheeks, eyes, décolletage – one swipe and you’re golden.

Hands On

Hand sanitiser, but make it glow. This chic mist does more than clean hands: it leaves them softer, hydrated, and subtly luminous, all while wrapping you in a bouquet of freshly cut roses and lychee. Consider it your pocket-sized spa moment, with 99.9 per cent germ-killing power.

Dry Clean Only

The future of dry shampoo is here. K18’s AirWash eliminates odours and traps oil for three-day freshness with patented bio-technology. Microbeads absorb sebum while Mediterranean microalgae rebalance the scalp. Result? Hair that looks, feels, and actually is clean. No aerosols or white cast, just runway-ready roots.

In Your Dreams

This pure silk mask glides over skin to minimise sleep creases while its contoured design cocoons lashes without crushing extensions. Whether you’re in-flight or at home, it blocks light completely while keeping skin and hair friction-free. Beauty sleep, perfected.

All The Feels

These skincare sachets pack clinically proven vegan collagen (which is four times more absorbable than animal collagen) with hyaluronic acid to plump fine lines, boost elasticity, and quench skin from within. Toss them in your beach bag or carry-on for a beauty boost wherever you roam.

Your on-the-go facial fix, this two-in-one exfoliating gel cleanser blends AHA/BHA acids for a gentle resurface, while vitamin C and papaya dissolve dullness to reveal instant radiance. No tightness, no stripping, just travel-proof clarity and a glow so fresh, it looks like you brought your facialist along.
