A Flight Attendant’s Skin Survival Guide: How Nicole Keeps Her Glow at 35,000 Feet
From golden sunsets above the clouds to early call times before takeoff, Nicole’s days are a mix of movement, wonder, and constant glow. As a flight attendant who spends most of her time in the skies, she’s learned that the real secret to feeling her best—no matter the destination—starts with how she takes care of her skin.
What made you decide to become a flight attendant, and what’s been your favorite part about it so far?
This was my childhood dream come true. I used to watch flight attendants walk by at the airport and think, “one day, that’ll be me.” Now I’m living that moment and realizing that little me would be so proud.
Becoming a flight attendant felt like the perfect mix of purpose and passion. I get to help people, travel to beautiful places, and learn so much about different cultures. My favorite part will always be the little moments. Sunrise or sunset views above the clouds, connecting with passengers, and realizing how far I’ve come since my very first flight.
