DIY Pumpkin Foot Scrub

It’s officially fall and we’re all busting out the boots. However, even though you don’t have to be sandal-ready, you still need to keep your toes on point. Here’s a super yummy DIY pumpkin foot scrub from celebrity nail artist and owner of As U Wish Nail Salon, Skyy Hadley.

Rich in  vitamins and nutrients, pumpkin contains enzymes that help nourish and brighten the skin. So what are you waiting for? Let’s get our DIY on!

PUMPKIN FOOT SCRUB Ingredients:

1 can pureed pumpkin 1 cup plain yogurt ½ cup raw sugar

2 tablespoons honey 1/4 teaspoon olive oil

Directions: Mix pureed pumpkin in a bowl. Stir in a yogurt, honey, sugar and olive oil. Wash your feet in warm water, and while your feet are moist, apply the scrub using your hands in a circular motion. Massage the mask onto your feet for 10 minutes on each foot and remove with warm water and a washcloth.

Mind Over Lather

mind over lather logo

As you all know, I love beauty products of any kind and I’m always on the lookout for new things to try. Mind Over Lather is a soap and apothecary company out of Ohio that I recently fell in love with. The all-natural, handmade line includes vegan soap, solid perfume and aromatherapy lotion.

I’m all about the simplicity of the products, which makes them a pretty addition to my bathroom and also great for gift-giving. Products are completely safe and natural and are infused with essential oils that smell amazing. Made without harsh chemicals, the soaps, perfumes and lotions are safe and an easy way to start transitioning into a beauty routine that is good for your skin and also good for the environment.

My absolute favorite products from the line are the Solid Perfumes. A little goes a long way and the petite tins are spill-proof which makes them stashable for on-the-go. Plus, priced at only $5, you can stock up on different scents to layer.

Must-have skincare: Rainwater Botanicals

No matter how old you are, good skincare is something a girl has to have. I just tried out a natural line called Rainwater Botanicals and it’s amazing. Each formula’s fresh ingredients deliver serious skincare results that makes skin glow from the inside out. Plus, their insanely reasonable prices make it easy to buy everything you need for healthy skin without breaking the bank. Here are my must-haves from the line:

Intensive Repair Cream for Face and Body, $20, Ok girls. This is the night cream we have been looking for. It’s packed with nutrients and essential oils and soaks into your skin like butter. It gives you that healing “aaaahhh” feeling right away and when you wake up in the morning, your skin has never looked better. It’s beauty sleep in a jar.

Carrot Eye Serum, $9, A little boost for eyes to hide and repair fine lines and wrinkles. I like to use a little bit under my eye cream for days that my skin feels parched. Also, it’s a great to use every night for a little extra moisture and healing while you sleep.

Nourishing Facial Cream, $10, Carrot and pumpkin smooth and hydrate for skin that literally feels like satin. A little goes a long way and glides onto skin and is quickly absorbed. I love this cream because it’s not too heavy, but also makes me feel really hydrated. If you’re looking for a great day cream, this is it!

Healing Facial Soap, $5.50, This power-packed facial cleanser shrinks pores and calms combination skin without that tight, dry feeling. Contains witch hazel which acts as a natural anti-inflammatory and antiseptic, clay to exfoliate and stimulate circulation and regenerating and repairing oils. What else could you want?

Skin Repair Serum for Scars, Wrinkles & Acne, $20, Seriously, the name says it all. This is a must-have for pretty much everyone. Not only does it soften skin and plump up skin with serious hydration, it’s healing properties reverse environmental damage, signs of aging and scarring. It’s that little boost you can’t get with just your moisturizer.

If you want to try out the line before buying the full-sized products, for just $10, you can get a travel-sized pack which includes a toner, serum, facial cream, facial soap and eye serum. Plus, from now until the end of the month, all products are 10% off with coupon code “AUTUMN”!

Along with their skincare products, Rainwater Botanicals also carries perfume oils, lip balms, body moisturizers, hair products and more. Check out the entire line at etsy.com/rainwaterbotanicals. Trust me, it’s seriously good stuff!
