Homemade Foaming Pumpkin Salt Scrub!

Homemade Foaming Pumpkin Salt Scrub!

Fall is in the air here in beautiful North Carolina!  I love Fall, the crispness in the air, the leaves beginning to fall, the notion that the Holidays are not far off, and warm and fun family times are near again.  What better way to celebrate the coming of Fall than with pumpkin!  When I saw this recipe on my suppliers, Wholesale Supplies Plus news emails, I immediately knew that I had to have this product in my inventory.  Pair this with a pumpkin scented lotion, and a beautiful pumpkin colored soap, and you have a wonderful gift for any occasion!

Here are the properties and benefits for the skin of the two main stars of this show, Pumpkin, and European Spa Salts:

• Pumpkin Seed Oil from the Styrian region of Austria, home to the world's best pumpkin seeds. Pumpkin is high in Vitamin A for skin healing, Vitamin C as an antioxidant, and Zinc.  It is thought to help other additives absorb into the skin thus intensifying desired results. It is also thought to provide moisturization to dry and damaged skin because of its high levels of Omega 3, 6 and 9 fatty acids. Pumpkin makes an excellent addition to skincare products. I use all natural and cold pressed pumpkin oil.  It also has many health benefits. The main treatment use for pumpkin seed oil was in supporting the urinary and reproductive area of the body especially the prostate and enhancing the libido.  

• European Spa Salts "are solar evaporated and harvested from the pristine waters of the Mediterranean Sea. They are produced using the ancient method of solar evaporation in a region that is free of pollution and has high evaporation rates. European Spa Salts are one of the purest salts in the world and are all natural."*  The use of sea salt on the skin can stimulate circulation, ease aches and pains, and cleanse and detoxify your skin.  

The above two products, along with a few trusty old standbys like castor oil, vegetable glycerin, and others make this a product you will most certainly enjoy as you prepare to bring in the Fall with healthy, moisturized, and glowing skin!
