Suitable for all skin types
Turmeric has a low bioavailability, meaning your body doesn't absorb much of it. Avoid taking too much at once and wait to see how your body reacts before taking more. Direct skin contact can cause irritation, redness, and swelling in those allergic to turmeric. Test turmeric on a small area of your skin before using it on your face.
When using turmeric, be careful about the dosage, the type of product you use, and how it might react to other medications you take. Discuss the use of turmeric with your doctor if you take other medications.
Turmeric is a bright, yellow-orange spice related to ginger. It's available as a ground spice or in supplements and other beauty and dermatology products.
