TURMERIC FACE MASKS FOR ACNE SCARS & DARK SPOTS

Turmeric has come a LONG way in the past couple of years from being used in dishes to being a consistent beauty staple in treating a multitude of things from hair problems to skin problems. The active compound in turmeric is called curcum, and is a yellow pigment that is packed full of antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties. When applied to the skin, this powerful powder fights bacteria to eliminate and prevent acne, breakouts, and blackheads, all while reducing the appearance of acne scars, dark spots, and stains. These turmeric face masks serve to cure a multitude of problems including acne, but focus more on eradicating stubborn acne scars and dark spots.

Turmeric Face Masks

#1. Turmeric & Lemon Face Mask

  • 1 tbsp turmeric
  • 2 tbsp freshly squeeze lemon juice
Mix both ingredients together and stir until well combined. Apply to a clean face and let sit for 15-20 minutes. Rinse with warm water and pat dry.
Why it Works: Lemons have powerful astringent properties and will shrink pores, all while naturally bleaching acne scars and dark spots. Turmeric works to prevent excess oil and breakouts.

#2. Turmeric & Aloe Vera Face Mask

  • 1 tbsp turmeric
  • 1 tbsp aloe vera gel (pure)
  • Water
Mix turmeric with aloe vera gel and add a little bit of water until the mask forms a smooth paste. Apply to a clean face and neck and leave on for 20 minutes. Rinse off and pat dry.

Why it Works: Aloe vera has powerful soothing properties, therefore reducing the appearance of scars and dark spots.

    I have 2 dark spots from old scars under my chin, and by using Dermalmd skin lightening serum for 3 weeks, the color is almost gone, and you can barely see them. It's stings for just a second, and your face will peel, but it works, and does what its supposed to do. You don't need to use much, so there's plenty in the bottle to last a while. I'm really pleased with it overall, and definitely recommend!

Apparently, it is also able to eliminate up to 90% of pesticides from fruit and vegetables. Researchers at the University of Massachusetts have conducted a study on gala apples in order to test the efficacy of baking soda in cleaning the fruits. They used two most common pesticides, thiabendazole, and phosmet, the first one being a fungicide that is able to penetrate apple peels, and the second is a popular insecticide. Moreover, they used three different liquids to clean the contaminated apples: tap water, a one percent baking soda/water solution, and the most commonly used commercial bleach solution approved by the United States Environmental Protection Agency.
