It turns out pumpkin contains a treasure trove of goodness for your skin. The pulp and seeds contain vitamins and skin-loving nutrients that will make you march into the fall with a new mission this year.
We've gathered a few recipes you can do at home for a spa treatment. Fun.
- Pumpkin is rich in Vitamin A & Potassium, making it a great tonic for the hair and scalp. DIY TIME: Mix up a cup of organic pumpkin puree, 2 teaspoons of coconut oil (fractionated), 2 teaspoons of honey and 2 teaspoons of plain yogurt for a conditioning treatment your hair will soak up and love.
- And let's face it, if we can eat it, it is usually in our products (and I love food). Here's a quick FACIAL PUDDING you can both eat and use as a moisturizing spa treatment.
- And this, not really a spa treatment, but a treatment from the inside out, I suppose. All blood-sugar-lowering benefits aside, these apple and pumpkin breakfast meals look delicious!
We love pumpkin in our handmade soap for the same reason it is popular in so many skin recipes. To read more about pumpkin and your skin, plus receive an exclusive discount on a bar of pumpkin soap, sign up for our quarterly news. Fall is all about pumpkin. (Discount expires TOMORROW, so hurry!)
How fun, right? I love that idea, Kerry:)
What great ideas! Looks like it’s time to have a pumpkin themed spa night. Maybe we can watch It’s The Great Pumpkin Charlie Brown while we do it!
