How to walk off the plane looking like a celebrity

You don’t need a wallet full of cash to walk off an 18-hour flight looking like a celebrity, according to Virgin Atlantic’s cabin crew.

Although it may seem impossible achieve, Virgin’s staff says achieve the fresh faced and elegant strut out of the terminal isn’t as difficult as it seems.

Helping the ‘average Jane’ look like a jet-setting star, Virgin Atlantic cabin crew share their beauty and style secrets:

 
  1. H2O is the way to go! Keeping well hydrated by avoiding caffeinated beverages, alcohol and salty foods as well as drinking lots of water pre-travel and onboard will save your skin. It will also help you get those precious hours of sleep in.
  2.  Softly softly. Moisturising well pre and during the flight will also help your skin from drying out.
  3.  Don’t shovel on the makeup. Use a mineral or light foundation, if any at all, to avoid skin dehydration. Then prior to landing you can freshen up with towelettes and apply a new, light layer of makeup.
  4.  Best foot forward. Being on top of your glam game doesn’t mean you have to wear sky rocketing heels on board. However, this does not mean we are giving you permission to sport your daggiest track pants! It is possible to wear comfortable clothes that look good. Our top picks would be casual dresses, with ballet flats, stockings, a cardigan and a scarf.
  5.  Back to basics. Get as much sleep as possible while flying will leave you looking and feeling more refreshed. Eye masks, travel pillows, ear plugs or noise cancelling headphones are commonly known tricks of the trade. Our tip is to try to relax, the same way you would do as if you were at home, whether that involves clearing your head of stressful thoughts, listening to some familiar music or meditating.

If all else fails and you still look a horror, crew says a good strong red lippy will never fail to brighten up the face.
