To celebrate Autumn and Halloween, Dee Dee Heilbig, of Ava Bella Day Spa, brought us some pumpkin themed skin care recipes. She said, "The great thing about using pumpkin in your skin care regimen is that it's full of vitamins and also has a natural exfoliant."

| 1/2 cup pumpkin-cooked or canned-pureed |
| 1/2 cup solids from a can of coconut milk |

- Let sit for 10 minutes.
- Rinse with warm water and pat dry.
