Turmeric is a natural ingredient derived from the root of the Curcuma longa plant. It has been traditionally used in Ayurveda for its anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, antioxidant, and anticarcinogenic properties. In skincare, turmeric root extract and its main component, curcumin, have shown benefits for acne-prone skin, sebum regulation, anti-aging, and skin brightening. It also helps in wound healing, psoriasis, acne scarring, scabies, eczema, alopecia, lichen planus, and other skin issues.

Turmeric may be unsafe for use during pregnancy in amounts greater than those commonly found in food. Little is known about whether it’s safe to use turmeric in amounts greater than those commonly found in food while breastfeeding. When applied to the skin, turmeric can temporarily stain the skin or leave a yellow residue. If you’re allergic, direct skin contact can cause irritation, redness, and swelling.
Avoid taking too much turmeric at one time and wait to see how your body reacts before taking more. If you take other medications, discuss the use of turmeric with your doctor. Test turmeric on your forearm, applying a dime-sized amount and waiting 24 to 48 hours to see if you react before using on your face. Do not use turmeric on your skin if you’re allergic to the spice in food.
