Few things are better than a luxurious spa treatment, especially after a long travel day. Blame it on low airplane humidity, changes in sleep cycles (hello, European time zone!), or crisp autumn temps that can zap skin’s hydration—caring for your complexion on-the-go can pack a challenge. That’s why we tapped Paris’s top hotel spa, Le Spa at Le Meurice, where coveted Swiss beauty brand Valmont recently opened its flagship maison. Stocked with this most sought-after spa amenity by five-star hotels around the world, Le Meurice’s spa manager Justine Borget shares her best travel skincare tips for fall.

What can travelers do before and after flights to keep skin radiant? Valmont’s luminosity line is ideal for pre and post flying days as it’s designed to give skin a healthy, natural glow. Before trips, I recommend a regime using Lumipeel as it’s an excellent daily exfoliant that refines and resurfaces the skin, followed by Lumicream. After flights, it’s so important to moisturize! Valmont’s Regenerating Mask treatment with collagen soothes, smoothes, and hydrates. While the Eye Instant Mask helps tired, travel-weary eyes look refreshed—plus, it’s made specifically for the eye contour to treat this sensitive area.

What’s the ONE most important fall skincare item to use when traveling to get the biggest results? The Prime Renewing Pack is a must-have for traveling! The mask’s creamy texture erases signs of fatigue by refreshing the complexion and filling in wrinkles.

With fall coming, can you share a simple, concise skin routine that will work for anyone? Cleaning should always be the first step, whatever the season. Start with Fluid Falls cream to remove impurities and makeup. Made with soothing Chamomile, it’s ideal for all skin types—especially those prone to dryness. Follow this with Primary Veil for a prebiotics and probiotics boost to balance the skin’s surface. Next, apply the Moisturizing Booster serum that’s rich in hyaluronic acid to hydrate and reduce lines. And Moisturizing With A Cream to refresh skin with immediate and long-lasting hydration. Finally, Prime Contour to strengthen the sensitive contours that are most prone to signs of aging. And once a week, indulge in Moisturizing With A Mask for an amazing bath of hydration that soothes the skin with Rosa Moschata and Shea butter.

Or better yet—hop a flight to Paris, check-in to Le Meurice, treat yourself to some cream of the crop pampering…and wash that fall jet lag right off of your face.
