3 DIY Pumpkin Beauty Recipes for Glowing Skin

Pumpkins are great for your skin because they contain antioxidant vitamins C and E, and zinc which soothes irritated skin. Here are a few recipes that I've tried and modified depending on your skin type to leave it looking better than before - or make your own recipe using these as your base!

• 1/3 cup pumpkin (canned or fresh)
• 1 teaspoon honey
• 1/2 teaspoon cream

Milk or whipping cream is great for dry skin and will help nourish and moisturize. Mix all ingredients together and apply to your face for 20 minutes. Rinse well with cool water.

• 1/3 cup pumpkin
• 1 egg
• 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar or cranberry juice

Egg whites exfoliate and tighten the skin while the yolk helps moisturize. Apple cider and cranberry contain natural antiseptic properties. Mix all ingredients together and apply to your face for 20 minutes. Rinse well with cool water.

• 1/3 cup pumpkin
• 2 Tablespoons plain yogurt
• 1 teaspoon honey

Honey hydrates and is antibacterial. Yogurt contains lactic acid and helps refine pores. Mix all ingredients together and apply to your face for 20 minutes. Rinse well with cool water.
