My past research on natural remedies for some skin issues led me to make use of so many natural substance, some were very effective and some were not too effective, I knew it has to do with skin type. Before i jump right into the topic i will be explaining what turmeric is first.

Turmeric is a bright yellow aromatic powder obtained from the rhizome of a plant of the ginger family. You probably know turmeric as the main spice in curry. It has a warm, bitter taste and is frequently used to flavor or color curry powders, mustard, butters, and cheeses. But the root of turmeric is also used widely to make medicine.

Turmeric powder comes from turmeric and that is our main focus for today. The anti-bacteria properties in turmeric aids in treatment of some skin issues.

Benefits of turmeric powder on your skin

  • It contains properties that helps the skin to glow naturally: Turmeric contains antioxidants and anti-inflammatory components and that property can help the skin to glow naturally and it also helps to revive the skin when applied. You may want to try it by mixing it with honey and apply it on your face and then leave it on for 10-15 mins and wash with warm water. More of these step will be coming up on my DIY posts.
  • It helps in removing scars: Turmeric is also known to reduce scarring, the anti-inflammatory qualities can target your pores and calm the skin. With turmeric face mask, scars can fade away gradually.
  • It helps treat a range of dermatological conditions: There are enough studies that have proven that turmeric can treat a wide range of these conditions. it is suggested that it can help with the treatment of eczema, alopecia, lichen planus, and other skin issue and other skin issues, though effects on skin type is different.
  • It helps in fast healing of wound: The cur-cumin found in turmeric can help wounds heal by decreasing inflammation and oxidation. It also lowers the response of your body to cutaneous wounds. This results in your wounds healing more quickly.

There may be risks involved in using turmeric powder depending on skin type

When using turmeric, you need to be mindful of the quantity you will apply on your skin. It is normal for turmeric to leave some yellow stain on your skin for a while but if you are allergic to it, direct skin contact can result to irritation, redness and swelling. If it is your first time to try it I will advice you apply it on your face first to be sure if your skin accept it before applying it on your face.

Please note that in most cases turmeric will be mixed with other natural substance either to make it more effective or to dilute it.
