Turmeric as a beauty product

Turmeric as a beauty product

Facial care is available in all price ranges. Or you can find it in your kitchen cupboard.

In your spice rack to be exact. Countless Instagrammers and bloggers make masks from turmeric (turmeric). In India, the spice has been used for centuries, both in cooking and for beauty purposes.

Turmeric for your face
You can make a mask from, for example, a tablespoon of turmeric and a tablespoon of yogurt. You can mix other ingredients with turmeric to your heart's content to create your own mask. A dermatologist told Metro.co.uk that turmeric has an anti-inflammatory effect. It can therefore, for example, soften skin with acne.

No hard evidence that supermarket turmeric works
The studies on turmeric are based on a particular active compound in turmeric. According to the dermatologist, there is no guarantee that a jar from the supermarket can do the same for your skin. Are you going to get started with a turmeric mask? Be careful, because it leaves yellow stains that are difficult to wash from your clothes and towels.

Turmeric for your teeth
There are also stories of people whitening their teeth with turmeric. A dentist has already warned about that. It can actually turn your fillings yellow and in the long run it wouldn't be good for your teeth either.
