Genius In-Flight Beauty Secrets From Karlie Kloss, Natasha Poly, Soo Joo Park
Guess which super keeps hot sauce in her bag. Swag.
Peek into the passports of Karlie Kloss, Soo Joo Park, and Natasha Poly, and you'll see that these L'Oréal Paris spokesmodels rack up an impressive number of stamps in a very short period of time. And while it sounds glamorous, crisscrossing time zones and looking camera-ready upon landing is no easy feat. Here, these famous faces reveal their favorite beauty products and best tips for luminous skin, six-pack abs, and staying grounded at 30,000 feet.
Natasha Poly
Whether she's jetting between LA's red carpets and Paris's runways, or chasing after her two-year-old daughter Aleksandra (who followed in her model mom's famous footsteps by posing for Mario Testino's Towel Series while still in diapers), Natasha Poly is always on the move. She skips an in-flight beauty ritual in favor of a few solid hours of shut-eye ("I just sleep!" she laughed when asked what she does to save face on the plane), but the supermodel always pampers her skin and body after landing. Keep reading to discover the products Poly uses to get a glowy complexion, amp up her already chiseled cheekbones, and unwind once she finally reaches the hotel.

"I love makeup. I like to play with all different kinds of looks. For the red carpet I like red lips or gold shadow. For a normal night out, I don't do too much makeup—I use concealer, sculpt my face, and use a little bit of eyebrow pencil, eye shadow, and mascara."

"The must-have in my bag is the Age Perfect oil from L'Oréal. I like to put it on at night when my skin is really recovering. I massage it into my face and do a lot of movements with my fingertips. The smell calms me down, too."

Soo Joo Park
By the time we caught up with super Soo Joo Park on the fashion month circuit, the model had already made stops in icy New York and steamy Los Angeles before touching down in a mild-but-rainy Paris. And the journey didn't end in the City of Light: After walking shows like H&M, Haider Ackermann, and Chanel, Park was off to Korea to wrap a television show. Needless to say, this model needs to be prepared no matter the temperature or occasion—whether that means posing on a red carpet post-Oscars or mixing beats for a celeb-studded crowd at L'Oréal Paris' Red Obsession party. "Skin and hair products add at least ten pounds to my bag!" she laughed.
Park also finds time to squeeze in a workout wherever she is, be it at cruising altitude or in a cramped European hotel room. "I hate exercising, but I know it's good for me, so I make it part of my routine," noted the model, who includes "YouTube yoga" and in-transit ab work as part of her regimen. "Sometimes I do crunches in flight—I'm that girl!" (You need a business class ticket to pull this move off, as there's not much room for crunching in coach.) Here, the model reveals how she "rolls" while she's en route, and the condiment she always keeps on hand. (Hint: Beyoncé carries the same type of swag in her bag, too.)

"I love the L'Oréal Infallible Le Gloss because it's really subtle, dries sheer, and doesn't go anywhere. I like the reddish-orange shade."

"I have a facial roller. Dr. Jart makes them. You roll it on your face, neck, and arms. It's great for lymphatic drainage—I use it on the plane while I'm watching a movie before I put on a face mask. I feel like it sculpts and lifts everything. It might be placebo effect, but I think it works!"

![<p>"Right before I go to bed, I put a sheet mask on. If I'm still awake after 15 or 20 minutes, I take it off—or I just fall asleep with it on. I used the brightening mask from Dr. Jart on the plane on the way [to Paris]. Sometimes, I'll put on a mask and then put oil on top so it does double duty.

Karlie Kloss
"I travel light, but I always have a few essentials," said Karlie Kloss, who saves plenty of room in her suitcase for beauty souvenirs. "Any time I travel to Asia, I pick up a bunch of products and I have no idea what they are! Same thing in France at the pharmacies, I just run through the aisles and throw things in my basket that look fun to play with. I take them home to my sisters and have a dress-up party of sorts." While Kloss always amps up her arsenal abroad, she keeps a few standbys in her carry-on so that she's guaranteed to land looking refreshed. "I think when you're sitting on the airplane, it's the quick little fixes that count," she said. "Even if you don't look tremendous, you feel tremendously better!" True story. Here, how Kloss gives her face "life" and stays cool, calm, and collected while she's crisscrossing the globe.
