'Tis the Season
of cool morning frost, golden leaves crunching under our feet, and pumpkin spice everything. While some believe society takes the pumpkin spice season a little too far (ahem, Trader Joe's), we embrace the heck out of it. Not only are spices such as cinnamon, nutmeg, cardamom and allspice heart-warming and delicious, they are liver supportive and antioxidant rich. These cozy spices help balance skin tone and hormones which contributes to clear skin. The high counts of antioxidants in pumpkin spices (cardamom, cinnamon, nutmeg) protect our skin cells from sun damage (reducing sun spots) and the heavy hitter spice, cinnamon is a natural anti inflammatory! Cardamom is one of my favorite skin spices because it's packed with anti inflammatory & anti bacterial compounds to keep you glo-ing on the reg!
