So, I got a facial the other day just before our flight home from Hawaii and during the 'extractions' portion while my face was magnified under the bright lights, the aesthetician told me that my skin looked dehydrated. Eek. Not what I wanted to hear. Granted, we had been traveling and spent the week prior in Utah (Hawaiian sunshine + airplanes + cold Utah weather + blasting heat all probably did a number on my skin). But I also need to remember to drink more water while on vacation.

Anyway, needless to say I was dreading hopping back on the redeye flight back to Utah that night and wanted to find a way to keep my skin hydrated when I remembered that I had packed my new Olay Mists.

I've posted about them before on my Instagram, but I really love the Olay Mist - Energizing Ultimate Hydration Essence (available at Target). It's packed with Vitamin C and Bergamot Extract to leave your skin feeling revitalized, refreshed and energized. Pretty much exactly with my skin needed while on my flight home.

If you're not familiar with Vitamin C for your skin, it's a powerhouse antioxidant for brightening and evening skin tone and Olay's Bergamot Extract is grown in Southern France and Italy and extracted from the peel of the fruit. It also is formulated with skin-loving niacin amide (Vitamin B3) and glycerin so it leaves your skin looking bright.

It comes in a 3.3oz bottle so it's a perfect travel size option for your carry-on alongside your other travel essentials.

Anyway, this Winter I want to be especially cognizant about keeping my skin hydrated since the winter months can really drain and dull your skin.

What are you guys using to help boost hydration and do a mid-day skin pick-me-up?
