The Best Pumpkin Spice Beauty Products to Stock Up On This Fall From Body Lotions to Skin Care and Candles
Pumpkin scented beauty products don’t just make you smell good — they can make skin glow, boost your mood and more!
With the weather getting cooler, it’s time to put away our summer sandals and bring out our booties, swap our tanks for sweaters and perhaps paint on a dark-hued mani to get ready for fall. However, our favorite part of fall is all of the pumpkin spice goodness that it brings about, from pumpkin spice lattes to pumpkin-scented candles to, what we’re most excited about, pumpkin spice beauty products. The scent smells just as good as it tastes (maybe even better), and will leave you feeling festive for the fall season. Keep reading for the best pumpkin spice products to stock up on for fall.
Why is pumpkin spice so popular?
Pumpkin spice-themed products are nothing new, but why exactly is the scent so popular? For starters, when we think of fall, we probably think of words like cozy, warm (maybe not temperature-wise, but you get it) and comforting; it’s the season to snuggle up with a blanket and turn on Gilmore Girls or your favorite spooky movie. All of these adjectives mentioned can describe the scent of pumpkin spice. Pumpkin spice smells delicious and inviting, and what I picture a warm hug to smell like.
Further, pumpkin spice beauty products can do more than just make us smell good; Pumpkin can actually do wonders for our skin! Some of these products contain pumpkin extract, along with the scent of the gourd, and it packs a powerful punch in terms of vitamins and antioxidants that our skin loves. Enzymes in pumpkin can also gently exfoliate skin. All of these benefits can leave skin looking and feeling more radiant and glowing, and make the complexion look more vibrant.
