Turmeric face masks have been on the up-trend over the past few years – and with good reason. Turmeric has so many good skin benefits, as well as anti-inflammatory properties, making these masks a great option for problem skin. Recently, these have been a go-to for people with acne, acne prone skin, and overall skin dullness. The best part is that these masks come in a variety of forms and consistencies, from powders to peel offs – so it’s easy to find something that falls in line with your preferred skin care routine.
If you love all things beauty, it’s hard not to be intrigued by this trend. In addition to helping with acne, turmeric is also said to help with oily skin and hyperpigmentation. It can brighten the skin, leaving it soft, smooth and glowing after a little self care session. We’re in! We’re also happy to find that there are several brands that make these masks, blending it with superfoods and antioxidants – so you can snag one with your particular skin needs. Some mix things up with banana, cranberry seeds for exfoliating, ginger, and more. And while we love a little DIY, mixing gone wrong can leave your skin, sink and other things yellow/orange. We know because we may or may not have tried it (we did). If you decide to buy a mask instead of making your own, we’ve got some great options below – all with great reviews.
To help you find what’s best for you, we’re including a well-rounded list of products like:
→ A face mask that you can mix up yourself for a fresh mask every time
→ A budget friendly mask with 3-4 uses, so you can try before you commit
→ An Allure Best of Beauty Winner
→ An Amazon pick that tingles, tightens and warms!
