Ingredients like Turmeric can be incredibly healing for your skin. Check out this natural recipe for skin healing face mask.

Ingredients:

    I am just scared to try this because tumeric usually staing my hands. Will I have a yellow face after using this mask??:(

  5. This is a great advice, Huda. Turmeric is known as one of the most powerful natural antibiotic, antioxidant and antiseptic. It’s good for overall face rejuvenation. I read it’s also helpful for weight loss. You might though have a yellow face for a little while, so begin with using it for a shorter period of time and preferably it in the evening. Or use cleansing lotions after the mask, this will reduce the yellowness, if any.

  6. girls if you use the fresh turmeric , there will be no yellowness like the one that made when you use turmeric powder . and you will get the maximum benefits of it .
    I use the fresh turmeric peeled with honey , an egg ,put it all in the electric mixer

    thanks Huda for your great tips
    it is my first visit to your blog , and It is so nice to know you and browse your blog :)

    my aunt told me about this when my face suddenly broke out like crazy. Only tip i can share is using this when you’re planning to take a complete shower afterwards (as in, washing your hair too) because the smell is strong and sticks to your hair if you don’t wash your hair afterwards.

    hey huda,
    i tried this on my arms because i have a genetically inherited thing that won’t go away. But my hands and nails are all stained, i scrubbed and scrubbed for hours. So should i just use gloves next time i apply this?

    i tried this and it really gives you a glow .
    however, yes it stains on your face but just apply some tonic and the color will go.

    HI Huda…thanks for such useful tips :) Turmeric is used widely by women in South India, its almost like their daily face wash. It is also an inhibitor of facial hair growth. We get natural turmeric from India and not the commercial variety which may have artificial color added. I’m gonna try this with honey now!
