And, like any spice blend, be it herbs de Provence or a rub for barbecue, pumpkin pie spice is easy to make.

If October were a color, it would have to be the rich, buttery orange of a pumpkin, and if it were scent, you know it would be a cool breeze wafting the aroma of pumpkin pie redolent with cinnamon and nutmeg (with whipped cream on top and a mug of caramel apple cider to drink, of course). So, for my nose (and my stomach), it's a very good thing that this month, all the swoon-worthy pumpkin beauty products roll out. I looked around the Internet for all that was cute and delicious, and I came back with a whole patch full of goodies.
