TOTALLY TURMERIC TIME

Today I want to share with you this amazing turmeric mask which is one of nature's most powerful healers. Turmeric is not only consumed in food. In fact, it is used for medical purposes as well as health and beauty. Turmeric is great as not only is it reducing redness on the skin, its moisturizing and exfoliating all at the same time. It is used as a weekly facial, and brides apply this over their face in preparation before a wedding. Read on to find out more.

turmeric is really great because its an anti-inflammatory and anti-bacterial agent. The anti-inflammatory agent helps reduce redness from blemishes, dark circles and eczema. The anti-bacterial agent dis-infects the skin and helps fight and control acne. Moreover, honey is also a anti-bacterial agent and is very moistening. In addition, the milk in the mask is used to exfoliate the skin.

What you need: A teaspoon, A small bowl, Turmeric powder, Honey and Milk

What you do: Take a teaspoon of turmeric powder and add it to the empty bowl. Then you're ready to add a teaspoon of honey, followed by a small quantity of milk. Stir these ingredients into a nice thick paste as it's really important that the mask doesn't drip off your face while you have it on. Once you have the consistency right, you are ready to use it! Make sure you're wearing an old top, your face is clean and your hair is put back. Apply this paste all over your face except your lips, eyebrows and eyelid (the neck is optional). Leave it on for 30 minutes and the paste will start to dry. Afterwards, remove the mask by applying warm water in circular motions. DISCLAIMER: Turmeric is used as a dye and can stain anything it touches so take extra care when applying and removing the paste. As a result, this mask will leave your skin feeling smooth and soft!
