You may have used turmeric to make amazingly tasty curries but that isn’t where the greatness of turmeric ends. For many Eastern countries turmeric has been used for beauty as it does wonders for the skin and hair. Part of the ginger family, turmeric contains numerous antioxidants as well as antibacterial properties that benefit your skin.
Using a turmeric face mask can help improve the skin’s elasticity, lighten dark spots, reduce dark circles under the eyes, control oily skin, reduce scars, cure acne and even help with anti-ageing. With all these benefits it’s no wonder so many women use turmeric as part of their beauty regime.

I have dry skin. Will this make it drier? If you add a bit of coconut or olive oil to the mixture, it will work as a moisturizer.
Can I use this if I have sensitive skin? It should be safe to use the face mask but make sure you aren’t allergic to any of the ingredients first.
