DIY Try: Pumpkin Foot Scrub

Boot season is finally upon us, but just because our toes aren't showing doesn't mean that we no longer have to take care of our feet. Celebrity nail artist and owner of As U Wish Nail Salon, Skyy Hadley, gives us the recipe for her Pumpkin Foot Scrub to maintain our pedicures into the fall. 

“Pumpkins are more than just for carving on Halloween,” she notes. “They’re rich in vitamins and nutrients and can do wonders for your feet!” According to Hadley, they contain, “various enzymes that help nourish and brighten the skin, and just by adding raw sugar, you have a perfect foot scrub."

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.
