Air travel with a raisin free face and extra Holiday grace

Did you know that the official retail season begins on August 1st?

It's start slowly with "Back to School". Then gains speed with Memorial Day weekend. Before you know it, full tilt with Octoberfests and Halloween. Followed by a slippery fast paced slide into Thanksgiving then whoosh! Right into Christmas. Hallelujah, what a ride.

I bring this to your attention because you may be going to the lake, tubing, or grilling with friends in the backyard for Memorial Day. Before you know it, you will have air travel plans for somewhere delightful.

Air travel, and any travel, whether it is by train, plane or automobile causes stress on the skin. If you are like me, it's the stress plus the massive amount of cappuccino I've consumed to add to the dehydration that stress causes. The main place this shows up is on your face. Exactly where everyone and anyone is looking at you when you interact in your travel.

If you could, would you be interested in a way to turn back the stress, relieve the appearance of it on your face, and rejuvenate your senses a bit while traveling and enjoying the soon to be here holidays?

It's one simple step. A spring water atomizer.

This is a can of spring water in a delivery system similar to aerosol, but not quite the same. There are two different brands to choose from, they come in two different sizes: small and large. Think carry-on or check-in?

I recommend a small can for carry-on and at anytime you feel like it, hold the atomizer about 8 inches away from your face and give it a good, light, satisfying, refreshing mist.

If you are wearing makeup, allow the mist to dry, then using a press and roll motion with your fingers covered in a tissue or a velvet puff, re-set your makeup. Don't rub. It will smear your makeup and defeat the whole " refreshing", "rejuvenating" affect we are aiming for.

The inside cabin of an airplane, in my opinion, has enough oxygen to barely sustain life, and is not enough to keep your skin plump and healthy looking. Your skin when dehydrated loses elasticity and when pinched, will not return quickly to it's normal position.

If you drink caffeine or consume alcohol suddenly you turn into one big raisin faced traveler strapped into a metal tube hurtling along through space.

Now, what to do with that can when it is empty? Some are recyclable and will be marked according. So check it before you put it out at the curb in the blue box. If it is not recyclable, save them for when the kids, grandkids, nieces, nephews and neighbor kids are over.

The cans can be decorated by covering with colored construction paper and be made into: flags for Memorial Day, pumpkins for Halloween, turkeys for Thanksgiving and dressed up as a Christmas tree for Christmas and a menorah for Hanukkah. Oy! Now put it on the mantle or front lawn for decoration.

So to save face while traveling, please consider a spring water atomizer. I know you will enjoy it.
