Travel can put an undue amount of stress on the skin but many frequent flyers who are passionate about caring for their skin know to pack solutions that will help to quench thirsty skin—and to save travelers the hassle, United Airlines is now offering its own airline amenity kits in collaboration with Sunday Riley.
The Sunday Riley Onboard amenity kits feature specifically tailored items for the United Premium Plus, United premium transcontinental and United Polaris business class—the latter contains a total of four products from Sunday Riley, including a nourishing lip balm, an in-flight face cream, a hand cream and a facial cleansing cloth.
United Airlines will also be offering Sunday Riley products in United Clubs and Lounges and offers MileagePlus program members the chance to bid on the chance to receive a Sunday Riley facial through a salon experience.
