Any good beauty tips?

1) Drink lots of water or herbal tea throughout the flight.
2) If you have dry skin, slather on a thick moisturizer before boarding the plane.
3) Take a small spritzer of mineral water or toner to refresh your face. Another alternative is to take a single facial mask sheet packed & wear it about 1-2 hours before landing.

4) Apply & re-apply Vaseline or a tinted lip balm. Apply a gel or cream blush to cheeks or an eye/cheek product like BeneFit Rush hour. http://www.benefitcosmetics.com/gp/product/B000KZ2E3G/ref=sr_11_1/102-5943317-3544127?ie=UTF8&bcBrand=core&nodeID=APS
5) Wear you hair in a simple style so you can brush it out & re-do it before leaving the plane.
6) Carry on dental floss & toothbrush so you can freshen your mouth even w/o toothpaste.
7) Avoid wearing eye makeup that can smear - no mascara, eyeliner, etc. Just curl your lashes & apply clear mascara to set the curl.
8) Bring some eye drops & saline nose spray. Also pack a bit of hand sanitizer.

Ya know, I've never even been on an airplane but I still can use common sense ;)
I would say for females, don't wear makeup to the airport... who are you trying to impress anyways?
For everyone, I would say wear comfy clothes. The more comfortable you are the more relaxed and refreshed you will be. Just make sure to have a change of clothes in your carry on and allow ample time to change before hitting the town or a big meeting.
Carry a washcloth and zip lock bag. At the terminal soak the cloth in cold water and wash your face. By having a washcloth from your home your more likely to feel relax because you are around your own things.
Always eat well and drink plenty of water. I would say drinking alcohol on the plane will give you the "hang over" look.

first, HYDRATE, HYDRATE HYDRATE,
second, don't sit on your but for more than three hours, it's bad for your butt, it's bad for your energy flow and it makes you disoriented AFTER you get up.
so... bring a very small pack a lotion and remember to pack it in a ziploc, you know airport security. and use something like evian brammeuser spray and your favorite moisturizer. but maybe the small version.
don't wear any makeup on board because after five hours, it fades.
but you can wear some lip colour, lip gloss, hydrating lipstick , nothing that dries you out. because airplanes really makes your skin feel uncomfortable.
always have a little makeup bag with you, and remember to brush your teeth ever five hours, cause you want to make sure you're healthy. if you can't bring alot of stuff, a small listerine is good too
tip
*if you can't find a small moisturizer, use the small lotions that the airplane bathroom has, no one ever uses it and it actually is ok.
before you get off the plane you can apply some makeup and even change your shirt.

Wear very minimal makeup, then stop in the bathroom at the airport when you get off the flight to touch up. Wet some paper towels in cold water, wring them out, and press them to your eyes to reduce puffiness. Don't apply mascara until after the flight. If you wear contacts, take them out and rinse with solution and put them back in to refresh your eyes. And brush your teeth!

I wouldn't swear to this, but I've tried it as for feeling better. I constantly splash my face and especially my eyes with water every hour or so. That keeps your skin rejuvenated and your eyes from getting all bloodshot. Also use some neosporin in your nostrils to keep the flu and other sicknesses away. Good luck!

Change your clothes and re-apply makeup. Also, grab a coffee on your way out of the airport. (:
