Pros:

helps with cystic acne
makes your skin glow
clears toxins from body when taken with water

Cons:

face will stay yellow after appying but then becomes normal

its a natural and ayurvedic herb which according to my own experience had helped me a lot . It can be applied directly to the acne and it shrinks after a few hours. People looking out for skin whitening creams can opt for turmeric powder because it makes you fair and glowing . I would definately ask others to try it out.

Pros:

antibacterial/anti-inflammatory
great at preventing cystic pimples
also good at treating and shrinking existing acne

Cons:

MESSY
stains everything yellow - clothes, countertops - and does not go away
grainy and takes some effort to get it to adhere to your skin

Despite the inconvenience of mixing a mask with this, this really works at preventing acne from bubbling up! I just mix some with water and try to do a mask at least 2 or 3 times a week. It reduces redness and calms down those angry-looking pimples who look like they're about to attack your face if you look at them the wrong way. It also keeps their friends at bay - nips them in the bud, so to speak. The only thing is, you have to invest quite some time in 1) mixing it together without dripping all over the sink and staining everything, 2) letting it sink into your skin for at least 30 min, 3) rinsing it off without the dripping and staining, 4) cleansing and toning to get rid of the stain on your face. I usually do it at night and find that my skin stays yellow until morning. Then I usually tone a couple of times to get rid of the last traces. If you are patient enough to handle the mess and time involved, this is a great treatment.

turmeric face and body mask
it does stain my face yellow but I do the mask before bed every other night during the week and the stain is very faint in the morning ; it comes off with a little face wash in the morning. Ive heard that you shouldn't wash your face after using the mask whitch is why I use it right before bed and wash in the morning when I wake up. i just use it with yogurt and lemon juice. Ive only used it one fully so idk if ive seen results yet. but so far its a 4/5 for me

Pros:

Inexspensive, Fast results, Easy to use

Cons:

Will stain your face orange if you do not wash your face with baking soda afterwards.

This is an amazing spot treatment! I saw results the very next day. All you need to do is purchase this powder at your local grocery store (it can be found in the spice & seasoning aisle). Take the powder & a small amount of water making it into a paste. Use as a spot treatment. Wait until the paste is completely dry then rinse off with lukewarm water(it is normal to have a orange tint left after washing off). Finish up by making a paste with water & baking soda. Then, use that as a face wash & pat face dry. Be sure to moisturize afterwards or your face will be really dry. This has worked wonders for my husband & I!

Turmeric is great for my redness, my skin immediatley gets calmer and less red and irritated. Doesn't heal my acne though

Oh Turmeric!

 

First and foremost, stop your current skin regimen ( if nothing is working). Only wash your face 2 times a day with the mildest soap or jojoba oil or honey. Don't even use moisturizer unless you have super dry skin ( use a clear gel type moisturizer or light non-comedegenic oil). Don't wear makeup. Do not do the turmeric mask. Your skin will heal itself. After a month when your skin has healed, you can go back to your routine, and the turmeric mask.

It broke me out as a mask.  It faded scars in the beginning. I would say ingestion will work the best. Make sure you are taking probiotics if you have digestive problems so that it works better. Take it first in the morning and very last at night.
