This mask is perfect for fall with a therapeutic mix of vitamin A to heal skin and reduce fine lines, cream to moisturize and reduce redness, and honey for an extra dose of moisture and antiseptic properties (great for breakouts). If you’re going to have these ingredients on hand, you might as well make my favorite dessert aka a delicious pumpkin pie too. If you haven’t tried using honey instead of sugar before, I would highly recommend it, but just make sure to decrease the amount of honey (use ¾ cup plus 1 tablespoon honey in place of 1 cup sugar, and reduce the other liquid ingredients by 2 tablespoons).
Natural beauty is always about what we put into our bodies as well as what we put on them so don’t forget to eat lots of delicious fall produce and try out some new beauty treatments with them as well!
this is brilliant! And it works perfectly because I am definitely going to have these these around the house…perhaps I could make it into a fun activity for the family! ha. xo
Step 5. Eat face mask.
Just kidding. But it sounds kind of yummy, no?
Wow I would have trouble not licking my face or that of anyone who is around using it lol
this sounds great… also delicious! ha!
I used to use a pumpkin mask years ago from BBW, but yours sounds so much better due to whipping cream. This is like breakfast on your face.
Lovely image. I am always trying the face masks that I learn here in your blog! Thank you for sharing!!!
Hope you are having a great week.
Wow this is quite brilliant! Although I think after mixing it all up and i’d be more tempted to eat it than I would be to put it on my face!
I love your mask ideas and I try them all:) This one sounds awesome. Have a lovely morning, sunshine.
I do have all these on hand! I have some left over whipping cream and I baked down two pumpkins the other day. I think the whipped cream calories would be betters spent on my face ;)
this sounds yummy and good for the skin. gotta try it!
I love this idea! It sounds delicious too :)

I would so love to try the organic coconut oil. does it cause breakouts from too much oil?
