Before you toss out your old jack o’ lanterns this weekend, be aware that pumpkins pack a powerful punch of beauty benefits. Chock full of Vitamins A & C, pumpkins are ideal for making moisturizing masks. Plus, their flesh contain enzymes and antioxidants that can help dissolve dead skin cells and leave your face feeling refreshed while creating a healthy glow.
Not only are pumpkins good for pies and decorating, they’re great for you too!
Have you ever used a pumpkin-based beauty product? As my treat for you, I’m giving away one bottle of Rapid Lash (a $49 value) (it’s made with pumpkin seed extracts) to one lucky reader. My friend SWEARS by this product. The reader will be selected randomly and announced tomorrow.

I didn’t know the beauty benefits of pumpkin. Thanks for the info! Does eating pumpkin in recipes count too? I don’t eat pumpkin pie but maybe I should start having a bite or two. I’ve never used a pumpkin mask but I have used the Pumpkin Spice lotions & lip glosses.
Hey BGG
I have used pumpkin based masks before and some can be really powerful. If you find one that is just right for your skin, then you can be left with a LOVELY glow.
Thanks for the contest.

i’ve heard that lash growing stuff really works!
i adore pumpkin! just had a pumpkin latte this morning, lol
I do like the smell of pumpkin. And its great that it also has healthy benefits too.
I don’t like to eat pumpkin anything but if it’s good for the skin, I’ll definitely give it a try.
After some research… RapidLash seems like a great product, I am going to buy it… unless I win this 😉
Great post, ’tis the season!
i dont wanna win this b/c honestly it scares me plus i always win stuff from you. anyway, i love how it’s pumpkin season. starbucks brings out their pumpkin spice latte and this year i tried their pumpkin muffin, YUM! also cheesecake factory has a pumpkin cheesecake and pumpkin pecan cheesecake. mcdonalds has a pumpkin shake and it tried it, but no mas. wont be getting that again.
My fingers are crossed! I love using products, but never have the time or patience to buy the right ones.
Pumpkins do all that!? Whoa
The winner of the RapidLash is Blair! Congrats, please email me your mailing address. 🙂
