• The pumpkin has enzymes that help gently exfoliate the skin, making it suitable for sensitive skin because it does not contain aggressive particles.
• In addition to its high water content, it protects hyaluronic acid from the skin area, thus ensuring proper hydration that helps mitigate expression lines. Using this pumpkin mask will help you combat dry skin and keep it properly hydrated.
• It stimulates the regeneration of the skin, because it helps the production of collagen and elastin, making it a very effective wrinkle treatment.
• Its high content of vitamin E and vitamin T (Torulitin) helps to eliminate bacteria and impurities that generate acne, making it highly suitable for anti-acne treatments.
• It is also a natural anti-inflammatory, so it is used for inflamed areas of the face such as eye bags.
• In addition, the application of this pumpkin mask helps reduce skin shine.
