Assuming you’re all going to have leftovers…
If you guys were watching Fox this morning I was a contributor on San Diego’s CW sharing how to use Thanksgiving leftovers…but as beauty products!!
Some of my favorite ways to use food for the bod? Check it:
|| The best toner ever ||
Apple cider vinegar with a little water on a cotton ball is GREAT for hyperpigmentation.
|| Sweet potato eye masks ||
F cucumbers, you can use sweet potatoes too! They’re filled with antioxidants & vitamins!
|| Cranberry sauce scrub ||
Ok, so you guys know I’m OBSESSED with dry brushing, right? Use fresh cranberries with a little thick REAL brown sugar & sugar & voila! You’ve got yourself an all natural scrub.
|| Brighting, rad oatmeal mask ||
Make a quick, lil mask by using lemon, oatmeal, brown sugar, & apple cider vinegar. The lemon seriously, seriously whitens skin removing any dark spots. And mixed with the apple cider vinegar?! Soooo good.
|| Pumpkin pie ultra hydration mask ||
For those of you with drier skin, this mask is perfect. Just use pumpkin puree ( real pumpkin, none of that fake shit ), cinnamon, & turmeric. Turmeric is AMAZING for inflammation. So pile the mixture on your face for a few minutes & prepare to see the difference. Another pumpkin product I die for? This spicy pumpkin scrub. YUM.
|| Brown sugar lemon exfoliate ||
You guys know my sick obsession with lemon sugar scrubs so this one was kind of a no brainer. I feel like it’s an all-natural version of this one. Plus…you could eat in the shower if you got hungry.
AND pleasssse don’t forget to feed leftover pumpkin puree to your dogs. PIXY & T.BOONE PICKENS DIE FOR IT. It’s sooo good for dogs. Total superfood.
Ok, no go get your buzz & tryptophan coma on. Happy Thanksgiving!!! – Lauryn

Hi, these sound great! What is the ratio for the ingredients? Especially for the oatmeal exfoliating mask. Thanks!!
1/2 handful of oatmeal! You can use whatever amount you like. I don’t use exact measurements. xx
What great ideas! I love using food as beauty products, you can’t get more natural than that!
