Pumpkin.. its not just for thanksgiving!


The next time you have a skincare treatment, ask your therapist about a pumpkin peel.  Not only do the smell amazing but they benefit almost every skin type and tend to be a great introduction to the world of chemical exfoliation because they are both gentle and effective.

Benefits of the Pumpkin Peel:
Pumpkin peels are a powerful antioxidant keratolytic (a substance that promotes softening and dead skin cell removal in the epidermis) treatment. Its main source of nutrition, pumpkin, offers more than 100 beneficial components, including extremely high concentrations of natural Vitamins A, C and beta-carotene. The Pumpkin Peel has simultaneous actions: it exfoliates while introducing vitamins, enzymes and nutrients into the skin. There is no downtime and in fact; skin will be glowing and extremely healthy looking following the treatment.

Some of the key skin rejuvenating benefits of a pumpkin facial, include:
  • Promotes healthy skin cell turnover
  • Regulates oil production – it’s perfect for oily skin types!
  • Repairs and restores damaged skin cells
  • Tightens pores
  • Leaves skin feeling fresh and rejuvenated
  • Allows deeper product penetration so that masks, serums and moisturizers work more effectively after the peel.
  • Protects skin from future damage by strengthening your outer layers and helping to stimulate new skin cell production.
  • Makes extractions easier and more effective.  The oil-loving quality of pumpkin helps it to dissolve impactions well and makes manual extractions much easier.
  • It is an excellent treatment for smokers as it stimulates circulation, promotes healing and provides vitamin nutrition
