Should I put makeup on before or after flight?

For long flights, it's best to go bare-faced or wear minimal makeup before flying, focusing on hydrating skincare, and then apply makeup after landing for a fresh look, or do a quick refresh (touch-ups) a bit before touchdown, as dry cabin air can make heavy makeup look flaky and clog pores. Skip heavy foundation and opt for hydration, but if you must wear makeup, use lighter formulas and cleanse thoroughly before boarding.
