I'm a registered nurse and love taking care of others. My passions include natural was to maintain ones health if possible.
I have been doing a lot of reading and research on natural skin care. I have also been experimenting. Today's mixture includes:
pumpkin powder, brown rice flour, bentonite clay, lemon powder.
I mixed it up and applied it as a mask. Once it started to dry I could instantly feel my skin tightening up. I then followed with a baking soda scrub. My skin feel baby soft.
Pumpkin is an awesome food for inside and out.

Rich in Vitamins
Pumpkin is excellent for use on all skin types, but especially if your skin is damaged from environmental conditions such as overexposure to the sun. Pumpkin is rich in vitamin A, which soothes and softens your skin, and vitamin C, an antioxidant that can help to remedy damage produced by free radicals, according to the University of Maryland Medical Center. Pumpkin facial masks, moisturizers and peels nourish your skin and promote the absorption of these nutrients.
Anti-Acne
If you suffer from acne, blemishes or frequent breakouts, your skin will benefit from pumpkin anti-acne products. Pumpkin contains the acne fighting vitamins E and T, more commonly known as torulitine. Pumpkin skin toners, peels and anti-acne masks promote healthier skin by fighting inflammation, reducing pore size, controlling excess oil and preventing the appearance of pimples, blackheads and blemishes. Try rubbing the fleshy side of a piece of fresh pumpkin on your face twice a day after washing for a natural blemish-fighting toner.
