DIY Sexy Pumpkin Body Scrub



Pumpkin pie is always a fave at Thanksgiving, but did you know that this is also a scent that can trigger a sexual response in your man?  It's true according to a study conducted by Dr Alan Hirsch at The Smell and Taste Treatment and Research Foundation of Chicago. 

So now that Thanksgiving is over instead of feeling guilty by eating all of the leftover pie, use it for a holiday to remember and whip up some old fashioned “desire” with this DIY beauty treatment that will leave you smelling a bit like pumpkin spice to drive "him" crazy all weekend long!


Sexy pumpkin All Over Body Scrub

Combine pumpkin puree (or use leftover pie filler) and brown sugar to get a consistency you like – for a stronger exfoliation add some white granulated sugar

1-2 tsp honey

Add in whatever else sounds delicious like cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger or all spice.

Let this sit on your skin 10 minutes before rubbing gently in small circles to exfoliate dead skin away. Wash off with warm water.

P.S. Lock the door, because this recipe is sweet enough to eat.

Look Skinny in your Holiday dresses - Belt And Recycle!


Belt your holiday dresses to flaunt your waist and give you that perfect sexy hourglass proportion to look skinnier this year!

Scientific studies have shown that we find symmetry attractive and just by adding a belt to any outfit you can create that illusion whether or not you were born with it. Regardless of your size this trick works for everyone.

First Lady Michelle Obama is also known to repeat dresses by adding sweater or belt.
You might think a belt is too casual for a cocktail dress but the secret is in finding the right one ... metal, patent, ribbon, or jeweled - the key is to pick a belt that is equally as dressy as your outfit. If you don't have time to hit up the alterations lady, a belt is your answer to never looking frumpy again during the holidays. Many women make the mistake of thinking that just because they aren't a size 2 that this won't work for them. Or that they should wear a bigger, non-fitted dress, but adding more drapey fabric will only make you look bigger. By cinching in your waist you draw attention to the smallest part of your body giving you a curvy shape which translates into sexy.

Belts can also be a game changer allowing us to recycle holiday dresses from Christmas' past. An inexpensive way to change your entire look.

 And don't forget to add a belt to a sweater or jacket worn over your holiday dress to take you to one more holiday celebration without anyone guessing you're repeating!
