Even if you didn't grow up in India, you probably know how important an ingredient in Indian cooking is, turmeric is also the most important part of a "big fat Indian wedding". So much so that one entire ceremony revolves around this beautiful spice, in which the bride and groom are showered in turmeric from head to toe for a special bridal glow.
Turmeric contains curcumin, which is a powerful antioxidant that fights free radicals and helps remove dark spots from the face. Since its pigmented yellow color may seem too bright to be applied straight to the face, here are a few homemade recipes you can try. They use turmeric in addition to some of the other great ingredients to combat age spots.
Method number 1 :
Face mask - Turmeric, lemon juice and milk
With milk acting as a base, turmeric and lemon juice work together to create an excellent face mask that will whiten dark spots on the skin and brighten it.
What you will need:
- ½ teaspoon turmeric
- 1 teaspoon lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons of milk
Mode of application:
- Mix turmeric, lemon juice and milk in a bowl.
- Apply the paste in a thin layer on your face.
- Gently rub the paste into the area of age spots.
- Rinse with clean water after 15 minutes.

What you will need:
- ½ teaspoon turmeric
- 1 ½ tablespoons yogurt
- 1 teaspoon olive oil
Mode of application:
- Mix turmeric, yogurt and olive oil in a bowl.
- Apply the paste on the face and massage the areas of age spots in a circular motion.
- Wash off with clean water after 20 minutes.
How often?
Three times a week.
!!! WARNING: Leaving any masks containing turmeric on your face for more than 15-20 minutes can turn your skin yellow, which will last for several days and scare your family and friends😁. So make sure you wash off the mask on time and use a cleanser immediately to remove any excess.
Avoid using any turmeric masks the day before any major event as your skin will be slightly yellow for a few days after application anyway.
Tips: Wear a towel around your neck or just wear clothes you don't really care about when using turmeric masks so it doesn't turn some of your pretty clothes a nice yellow.
