It's a shame to throw away all your pumpkin goo as you carve your pumpkin this Halloween. Instead of tossing your pumpkin in the trash, toss it on your face! Use this relaxing and tasty facial mask to really get in the trick or treat spirit. You are about to experience the ultimate treat of the season. No ghost or goblins necessary!
Ingredients:
- half a cup of cooked pumpkin (You will need a piece of the actual pumpkin to do this, I recommend using the lid of the pumpkin.)
- half teaspoon brown sugar
- one teaspoon honey
- one teaspoon milk
- After you scrape out the stringy part of your pumpkin, set aside a piece of the actual pumpkin. It doesn't have to be too big, just enough for half a cup worth of pumpkin meat.
- Place the pumpkin in a microwave safe bowl or dish and add one-two inches of water.
- Place the bowl with the pumpkin in the microwave for about ten minutes or until extremely soft.
- Mash pumpkin using food processor or blender. If you don't have one you can try using a fork. You want the pumpkin to have a puree consistency.
- Add the rest of the ingredients to your pumpkin puree and mix together.
- Apply the mix to your entire face and neck, avoiding your eyes. Relax for 15 minutes while the masks sets in and you inhale the holiday spirit.
- Rinse with warm water and moisturize as you do normally.
Happy Halloween!
