Experience the Power of the Pumpkin this October. Pumpkins aren’t just for making pies or carving for decorations. Try incorporating pumpkin into your beauty routine! Easy, DIY pumpkin mask You might have all you need right in your own kitchen to easily whip together a moisturizing and toning mask. All you need is organic pumpkin purée (you can use canned, but be sure it’s not pie filling) and an egg white. The egg helps smooth and tone your skin while the pumpkin, full of vitamins A and C, helps to exfoliate and brighten your skin. It might seem like you’re making a pumpkin treat to eat, but this one is definitely a treat for your face! Before applying the mask to your face, first test it on your inner arm, where you skin is more sensitive, to help ensure you can tolerate the ingredients. Wash your face to remove any dirt or makeup, and apply the mask starting from the chin and working your way up, avoiding your eyes. Step 1 Add the egg white to a small bowl and whip with a whisk. Step 2 Mix the pumpkin with the egg white and mix well until smooth. Step 3 Pull your hair away from your face and apply the mixture to clean skin. The mask will be slightly runny. Step 4 Find a spot where you can relax with the mask on your face for about 15 minutes. Gently wash off the mask with warm water, either in the shower or with a soft cloth. Tis the season to incorporate pumpkin into your skin care!
