DIY Pumpkin Face Mask

Make your own face mask using the vegetable of the season – the pumpkin! From Erica Katz comes this delightfully easy mask to make right at home!

Why pumpkin? Pumpkin is rich in vitamin A, which is very healing to the skin and is essential to maintain and repair skin tissue. It also helps reduce lines and wrinkles. Honey is a natural humectant. The whipping cream moisturizes and helps flaky skin.
