Pumpkin Face Mask

Facial Masks help to remove dead skin and toxins. They can also tone, moisturize, soothe and add vitamins to the skin. Pumpkin contains Vitamin A, C and natural fruit acids. Vitamin A regenerates skin tissue and is vital for healthy looking skin. Fruit acids dissolve dead skin cells and promotes radiant skin from the new skin cells.
