Pietro Simone’s signature facials complement Meadowood Napa Valley’s focus on self-care—from wellness classes to nutritious dishes on the spa menu to luxurious guestrooms.
When Pietro Simone was a young boy growing up in Italy, he would watch his mother wrap a piece of thread around her fingers and drag it gently along the curves of her face. Given their meager household budget at the time, it was her own way of giving herself a facial—each stroke casting away old skin cells and leaving her with fresh, dewy skin. Ironically, her cost-saving invention would help inspire her son’s luxury skincare line and signature facials years later.
Now at 35, Simone is a disruptor in the beauty industry. His Pietro Simone Skincare launched in the United Kingdom in April 2019, with his luxe line, Prestige, following seven months later. He debuted the line in the U.S. at the Greenwich Hotel’s Shibui Spa in Manhattan in the fall of 2019, and thanks to an alliance with Meadowood Napa Valley, his products and services are now available in the Bay Area.
Pietro Simone’s signature facials complement Meadowood Napa Valley’s focus on self-care—from wellness classes to nutritious dishes on the spa menu to luxurious guestrooms.
“My vision with Pietro Simone Skincare is to spearhead a positive, global evolution in how we all approach beauty and anti-aging,” says Simone. “We are very proud to partner with the prestigious Meadowood Napa Valley as our products and philosophies align with their vision of offering a tailored, luxurious experience for their guests.”
Indeed, Simone’s facials and Meadowood are the perfect pairing. Surrounded by nature, hiking trails, and pools and fitness environs that have undergone extensive renovations on the 250-acre wine country estate, the property is tailor-made for self- care. But don’t expect a typical facial. In addition to his thread exfoliation, Simone’s signature facial involves a deep tissue technique that is meant to encourage cellular renewal and increase micro-circulation. The intense pressure on your neck and face will feel unusual and a bit jarring, but it is followed up with a cooling serum and an undeniable glow.
