What to do with all that leftover pumpkin puree? Reset your skin after a big Thanksgiving meal with this easy, homemade Pumpkin Spice Face Mask.
Packed with lots of vitamins A and D, pumpkin is great for your skin. It softens and soothes, fights signs of aging, and contains enzymes and alpha hydroxy acids which help to brighten your glow. Plus, we’ve added a pinch of turmeric to the mix — this all-star ingredient is high in antioxidants to slow down cell damage, gently exfoliates your skin, and helps with inflammatory skin conditions, such as acne, dry skin, psoriasis and eczema. It helps reduce pigmentation, even out the skin tone, and diminishes wrinkles.
You’ll need:
2 tsp pureed pumpkin
1/2 tsp honey
1/4 tsp turmeric
1/4 tsp milk or Greek yogurt
Mix all ingredients and apply to face. Leave on for 10 min and rinse!
