If you don't have noise cancelling headphones, plug in to one of the yoga/zen/rainforest channels that all the airlines seem to have - it will help block unwanted noise and put you to sleep.</span></span><br /><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-size: small;"><b>A blanket. </b>I've traveled with the same giant pashmina for more than 12 years now. Its soft, very very lightweight, but warm. It also takes up no space at all.</span></span><br /><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-size: small;">Airline blankets can be scratchy, and don't always keep you warm enough.

Pack a bag with enough to last you a couple of days in case your bags don't arrive with you. Be mindful of security rules on sizes of liquids etc. Packing only what you need to get you through the first couple of days in your cabin bag and checking the rest can streamline your experience getting through security and onboard the plane.</span></span></span></span><br /><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-size: small;">Rules change from airport to airport, so rather than deal with any hassles at the xray, I prefer to check as much as possible.</span></span></span></span><br /><br /><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-size: large;">3.

The biggest part of jet-lag is getting dehydrated. You lose an additional 8 oz of water for every hour that you are up there, so its crucial that you drink as close to a glass of water for every hour of the flight.</span></span></span></span></span></span><br /><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-size: small;"> </span></span> </span></span></span></span><br /><span style="font-size: large;">4. Pack Healthy Snacks</span><br /><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-size: small;">Or at least check the airline's menu ahead of time. Sometimes there are healthy options - but mostly not.</span></span></span></span><br /><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-size: small;"><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-size: small;">Pre-sliced fresh fruit, unsalted nuts etc will serve you better than the high carb, high sugar, highly processed snacks and foods on most long haul flights. Be mindful of how much you eat too. Its super easy to overeat when you're sitting there for 10 or 12 hours.</span></span></span></span><br /><br /><span style="font-size: large;">5. Dress For Success</span><br /><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-size: small;">Wear comfortable clothes that you can layer up and layer down. Be able to work with however hot or cold the cabin is both during flight and also when sitting on the tarmac. Comfortable shoes (and socks!) are a must too. I'm a big believer in flying in comfortable clothes, but also in always looking stylish and well put together. </span></span><br /><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-size: small;">Airlines frequently oversell seats and have to upgrade passengers. I always want that upgrade. No matter how much of a model citizen you are, if you're not dressed nicely you won't get that upgrade.</span> </span><br /><br /><span style="font-size: large;">6. Sit Down, Shut Up, Powerdown. </span><br /><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-size: small;">The flight can't take off until everyone is seated, belted in, and all electronics are powered down.</span></span><br /><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-size: small;">More so on domestic flights rather than internationals it seems to take forever for people to just sit down and do as they're told. And there is invariably some tool who feels the need to talk on his cellphone at full volume throughout the process. </span></span><br /><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-size: small;">Make it easier on yourself and everyone else by streamlining the process. Once you're in your seat don't get back up to get anything out of the overhead bin until the flight has taken off and the seatbelt lights are turned off. </span></span></div>

How To Make An International Flight Easy

I would love to know exactly how many miles I have racked up flying round and round the world in my lifetime.Sometimes I can't even believe how many miles I fly in one calendar year.Regardless of whether you are making your first long haul flight, or if you are a veteran, there is most definitely a …

How To Do Your Makeup For The Beach

Skin must look fresh and dewy, glowing and radiant, and ultimately it musn't look made up.<br /><br />Start with moisturizer and a <b>super sonic SPF of 50+</b><br />Allow each to really soak in before applying anything else. Otherwise you will have a makeup-soup on the surface of your skin.<br /><br />If you can swing it, and especially if you live somewhere humid try to skip any form of foundation and instead opt for a facial self tanner. If that's not going to work for you the next best thing is a BB Cream.<br />Find one that works both with your skin type, and the climate you'll be in. In a dry climate you don't want a super matte finish, in a humid climate a dewy finish will look slimey.<br />BB's even out your skin tone and leave your face looking flawless yet makeup free. The trick is to keep your application so sheer that its barely there.<br /><br /><br /><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">Tell your story via your brows, cheeks and lips.</div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhe935CMvU3TLvgX48Sh7QkYwK4FQYxL35a4-QHHUsHaC4OAiu5P5XW0bI0gtYzDXb1mr494Wr93KtdHs82Vo9KxJ5cw-oiO3kgJ3r7antbZOuKKazidKL1bOm7GnEQiG647Alk9Yh7rek/s1600/beach.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhe935CMvU3TLvgX48Sh7QkYwK4FQYxL35a4-QHHUsHaC4OAiu5P5XW0bI0gtYzDXb1mr494Wr93KtdHs82Vo9KxJ5cw-oiO3kgJ3r7antbZOuKKazidKL1bOm7GnEQiG647Alk9Yh7rek/s640/beach.jpg" width="470" /></a></div>Define your brows with a waterproof brow product such as <a href="http://www.sephora.com/aqua-brow-P375462?skuId=1441146">Makeup Forever Aqua Brow</a><br />Enhance your brow, but don't make it look sculpted - remember the idea is to look fresh faced.<br />If you're using Aqua brow practice first - its super concentrated. <br /><br />On your cheeks create a soft glow with a warm, radiant cream color, such as Nars The Multiple in Orgasm or Portofino, followed by a gentle sweep of bronzer. Avoid bronzers that shimmer as they will look mad in the sunlight.<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />Instead of big eye makeup, which really does look crazy at the beach or by the pool, choose a high volume, waterproof mascara, such as <a href="http://www.sephora.com/diorshow-waterproof-mascara-P99901?om_mmc=esv103264-GG&om_kwpur=339971674&ppc_crid=22023920777&site=us_search&esvcid=S1369678747_ADOGOE_AGI3733530_CRE22023920777_TID339971674_RFDd3d3Lmdvb2dsZS5jb20%3d_RAWZGlvcnNob3clMjB3YXRlcnByb29m">DiorShow Waterproof. </a><br />If you're protecting your face with a big hat, and protecting your eyes with sunglasses, no one will see anyway.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhvXIfci_n6WEEAsL2nzcNfvd4RIgaaRp534vj5GwP82oJlCutw6TXUcjDnJTrwTmVYcc2Qmdfe5keGwrZTHJ3lHVHrdPukaYPe7BTdaDJyXpwDFBYpPhtNNXkt289sWWle4Q2AzCn6kN0/s1600/beach+lips.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhvXIfci_n6WEEAsL2nzcNfvd4RIgaaRp534vj5GwP82oJlCutw6TXUcjDnJTrwTmVYcc2Qmdfe5keGwrZTHJ3lHVHrdPukaYPe7BTdaDJyXpwDFBYpPhtNNXkt289sWWle4Q2AzCn6kN0/s640/beach+lips.jpg" width="420" /></a></div><br /><br /><br />Bring it all to life through your lips. I love bold, bright colors like fucshias, tangerines, or cherries. Don't go for perfection, just a burst of color.<br /><br />My rule for any kind of beach makeup is <b>no touch ups</b>. I personally go for a facial self tanner so that I can keep applying facial SPF throughout the day.<br /><br /><i>Remember any powdery products will turn into a paste on your face as the day heats up.</i></div>

Work Your Part.</span><br />Wearing your hair down with a part is the biggest giveaway that the roots are overdue for a little lovin'.<br />Instead of keeping a neat, straight part, break it up. Go for a zigzag part, or tip your head forward, shake your hair out, then let it fall as it will. An uneven part will hide your roots, or at least make them look a little more diffused.<br /><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody><tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEid6gq2RqJxT54UUEm0JRbbmqYV5jLK_cZc-TpAogUPfDC8MFHb1nEo_JIszBfG7KUrqstIGQLjLlFffK_Qf1Q3eVAzf7toHZAVSJsCXo5TUTBSDy9n2iNJEPSN7Nw6RzrR6aG51TtDx1c/s1600/cam.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEid6gq2RqJxT54UUEm0JRbbmqYV5jLK_cZc-TpAogUPfDC8MFHb1nEo_JIszBfG7KUrqstIGQLjLlFffK_Qf1Q3eVAzf7toHZAVSJsCXo5TUTBSDy9n2iNJEPSN7Nw6RzrR6aG51TtDx1c/s320/cam.jpg" width="320" /></a></td></tr><tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">Cameron Diaz in a soft messy pony tail with a broken up part</td></tr></tbody></table><br /><span style="font-size: large;">2. Pump Up The Volume.</span><br />The closer your hair is worn to the scalp the more noticeable your roots are. Instead of pulling your hair back tight and smooth, tease your roots and add texture and volume. A soft, messy pony with some height will help to disguise your roots.<br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEimc1N95IdNM_iWXlQYV-c-MZMWlpBbfcwNzPZnCw_0rKQnmY0VBlPxA7k-ZE7pRLYTfpzcVzPF80xLqbude7_Mkz3-8CVzYj2TOr01wxSE-KK9s-rOtTD0sFFohQJvxD8R1ZZWK9VZLIc/s1600/side+braid.png" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEimc1N95IdNM_iWXlQYV-c-MZMWlpBbfcwNzPZnCw_0rKQnmY0VBlPxA7k-ZE7pRLYTfpzcVzPF80xLqbude7_Mkz3-8CVzYj2TOr01wxSE-KK9s-rOtTD0sFFohQJvxD8R1ZZWK9VZLIc/s320/side+braid.png" width="212" /></a><br /><span style="font-size: large;">3. Wear A Braid or Fishtail</span><br />The very nature of braids and fishtails break up color throughout the hair. A braid or fishtail that is soft and worn to the side will soften the look of your roots, and they will appear a little more like lowlights than harsh roots.<br /><br /><span style="font-size: large;">4. Touch It Up</span><br />Grab a root touch up kit and mask the problem a little. Technique is everything with these, so make sure you hold up sections of the hair, and paint product in an upward motion, blending it into the body of the hair shaft to help offset getting "color bands".</div>
