Travel Hair & Skin Tips for Families

Travel Hair & Skin Tips for Families

Travelling with children requires planning, especially for hair and skin care. Changes in climate, water hardness, and routine can affect delicate skin and curls. With a few compact comforts and sensible choices you can keep children comfortable and protected on the go.

Before You Go: Prep and Packing

• Know the climate: Hot, humid or cold climates require different protections — suncream and lightweight moisturiser for heat, richer emollients for cold.
• Pack travel sizes: Bring TSA-friendly sizes of your child’s trusted products — Bubble Bloom (coming soon), Butter Bounce (coming soon), Miracle Magic and a fragrance-free option.
• Include a simple first-aid kit: For minor rashes, wipes, and a gentle barrier cream.

On the Trip: Routines That Travel

• Keep key parts of the routine: a comforting scent, a short bath, or the same bedtime story creates continuity in a new place.
• Limit exposure to hard or chlorinated water — rinse hair with bottled or filtered water if possible after swimming.
• Use leave-ins: a small amount of Miracle Magic or a travel-friendly leave-in helps protect hair and skin between washes.

Air Travel & Car Journeys

Cabin air can be drying. Apply a light moisturiser before take-off and keep lips and hands moisturised. For long car journeys, bring a small spray bottle of water for quick freshen-ups and a gentle wipe-down for sticky faces or hands.

Sun Safety & Hydration

Sun protection is essential. Use child-safe sunscreen appropriate for age and reapply frequently. Keep children hydrated — well-hydrated skin tolerates environmental changes better.

Final Thoughts

Travel doesn’t mean sacrificing care. With a compact kit, predictable touches of routine, and a focus on protection (sun, hydration, moisture), your family can stay comfortable and confident away from home.
