I don't care if I look crazy in seat 24B, I’m putting this on as soon as the lights go down. It’s a thick, creamy mask that saves your skin from that recycled airplane air. You don't even have to wash it off—just rub it in before you land for an inst...

Trust me, the 'swollen ankle' look is not it. I wear these under my flare leggings to keep my circulation going during long flights. They actually make your legs feel less heavy and tired when you finally step off the plane.

The cheap eye masks they give you on the plane are so itchy and ruin your lashes. This silk one blocks out every bit of light and feels like a literal cloud on your face. It's the only way I can actually get a few hours of sleep in economy.

This is a total game-changer if you use AirPods. It’s a tiny transmitter that plugs into the plane's headphone jack so you can use your own wireless headphones for movies. No more tangled cords or using those crusty airline earbuds.

I used to try to pack three physical books and they took up half my bag. This fits thousands of books, the battery lasts for the whole trip, and the 'warm light' setting is so much easier on your eyes when the cabin lights are dimmed.

The noise-canceling on these is elite for blocking out the engine noise or a crying baby three rows back. I put these on even if I’m not listening to music just to have some peace and quiet. Essential for surviving a red-eye.

My hands always get so dry and cracked after using the plane's bathroom soap. This is super rich but doesn't feel greasy on your fingers afterward. It smells like a spa and instantly makes you feel a little more human.

There is nothing worse than that 'airplane breath' after sleeping for 6 hours. These are waterless, so you can use them right in your seat without having to go to the tiny bathroom. One quick scrub and you feel 100% fresher.

This is the ultimate mid-flight pick-me-up when you're feeling dusty and tired. A quick mist of this feels so refreshing and keeps your makeup from getting cakey. I keep the mini version in my Lululemon belt bag at all times.
