8 Beauty Benefits of Turmeric
5. It treats cracked heels
Before sleeping at night, apply a little bit of coconut oil or castor oil mixed with turmeric to your cracked heels. Wear socks and sleep. That will not only prevent your bed sheets from getting dirty, but will also help the oil to absorb well in the skin. You will wake up the next morning to softer and smoother feet. Do this on a regular basis to see good results.
6. It removes dead skin cells
Raw milk and tomato juice mixed with a little bit of rice powder and turmeric will help you form a paste that can easily peel off dead skin cells. It also helps to avoid the formation of wrinkles. Some people also mix turmeric with buttermilk to form a mask, in order to get rid of wrinkles.
7. It reduces dandruff
Olive oil and turmeric can be mixed and massaged on to the hair and scalp, an hour before a head wash. This helps to provide nourishment to the roots and reduces dandruff quite effectively. Turmeric also has properties that help in boosting hair growth and improving the condition of the hair follicles, thereby reducing chances of hair loss as well.
8. It removes facial hair
The mix of turmeric with gram flour can be scrubbed off from your face to reduce facial hair as well. Once the paste dries, it sticks to your facial hair, and scrubbing it off makes the hair softer, making them come out. Do this on a regular basis to see a visible difference.
The most common application of turmeric on the skin is when it is mixed with gram flour and water or milk. This is like a wholesome paste that sorts out a lot of skin worries, including that of stretch marks. You can apply this paste on your whole body on a regular basis to improve the skin condition and a get fresh, youthful, radiant effect.
