The Benefits Of Turmeric And Skincare By Barbies Beauty Bits

I am such a big fan of turmeric I first started out using it for inflammation when I hurt my back. But beauties let me tell this spice has some many benefits including skincare!

Turmeric has anti-inflammatory, antiseptic, antibacterial, and antioxidant properties.  It is used to help heal and prevent dry skin, slow signs of aging, diminish wrinkles, and improve skin’s elasticity!  Wait, it does all of this… YES and more!

The Benefits Of Turmeric And Skincare


What Is In Turmeric That Is Good For You

Turmeric has been used in India for thousands of years as a spice and medicinal herb. The plant’s intense healing power primarily comes from Curcumin, its main active ingredient.  Curcumin is packed with anti-oxidant and anti-inflammatory firepower that promotes an incredible range of healing benefits.  Although it only takes up 3% of the plant, companies will extract this and concentrate the compound into a nutritional supplement.
