beauty recipe: Pumpkin Cream Pie Facial

fall flavors, especially pumpkin, are my favorite this time of year. and they're not just good for your taste buds, but also quite fabulous for your skin! Cecilia Wong, founder of Cecilia Wong Skincare in nyc has shared her divine recipe with me {and now you!} for an at-home facial treatment featuring the season's best flavors, designed to exfoliate, boost collagen production and hydrate skin. the recipe is simple...

2 teaspoons of fresh pumpkin

1 teaspoon papaya

1/2 teaspoon raw honey

1/4 teaspoon organic milk

2 teaspoons organic plain greek yogurt

dash of cinnamon {optional}

mix all the ingredients together, until it forms a paste; apply to skin and let sit for 10-15 minutes {the perfect amount of time to sip a cup of spice chai}; massage gently on skin for a minute before rinsing with cool water.

hope you'll try this soon ~ i've already tried it myself and my skin was left looking all a-glow, feeling fresh and definitely pampered. here's to a gorgeous autumn season!

organic beauty: Cecilia Wong Skincare

i was fortunate enough to receive samples of Cecilia Wong's amazing anti-aging, organic line of products and, well...i'm loving them!

products i used include, but are not limited to, Awakening Gel Cleanser, Rejuvenating Toner mist, and moisturizer {for oily/overactive skin}.

free of all the yucky parabens, sulfates or artificial colors and fragrances, the cleanser has a name that is perfect fit for its name, awakening. the formula is refreshing, smells bright with citrus, and leaves my skin so clean, without over-drying it...

the rejuvenating toner keeps hydration levels up in my skin with luxe ingredients like chamomile water, rosemary and lavender {ahhh...},

and topped with the moisturizer, my skin was always left looking fabulously radiant.
