Make a pumpkin face.


Last Halloween, I had a spooky sleepover and we made pumpkin masks. The pumpkin-papaya papaya (pəpī`ə), soft-stemmed tree (Carica papaya) of tropical America resembling a palm with a crown of palmately lobed leaves. It is cultivated for its melonlike yellow fruits eaten raw or cooked and, more recently, for the juice which has become a commercial item. exfoliates your skin and helps clear up breakouts. Try it!--Amanda, 13

WHAT YOU NEED

1 papaya * 1/4 cup yogurt * 1 15-ounce can of pumpkin * 1 1/2 teaspoons of honey

Cut the papaya in half, remove seeds, spoon the fruit into a bowl and mash with a fork. Combine papaya and yogurt. Add the pumpkin and honey, and mix well. Apply mask to a clean face in a thick layer. If you have sensitive skin, test the mask on a small section of your wrist first. Leave mask on for 10 minutes. Don't worry if your face tingles a little. Rinse off. Now you're glowing brighter than a jack-o-lantern.
