5 Turmeric Masks Against Acne Scars

Turmeric masks for acne scars

1. Mask with turmeric and mint

The mint has anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and emollient properties that go great with the properties of turmeric.

To remove acne scars, we recommend this mask daily. The mask is gentle and does not irritate the skin.

 ingredients

• 1 teaspoon turmeric powder (3 g)
• 2 teaspoons of mint tea (10 ml)

preparation

• Mix the two ingredients to make a paste.
• Wash your face with a skin-friendly soap.
• Then, use a brush to apply the mask to the areas with acne scars.
• Leave it on for 30 minutes, then wash it off with warm water.

If your skin feels dry afterward, use a moisturizing cream.

2. Turmeric and Sandalwood

Antioxidant products are essential for repairing damaged skin cells. With this mask you can treat skin discoloration at the same time. All three ingredients have a cleansing and antibacterial effect.

  • Sandalwood powder (3 g)
  • Turmeric powder (3 g)

3. Mask with honey and turmeric

ingredients

• Apply the mask with a brush.

This mask is wonderful, the honey exfoliates the skin too. You can either use it just where you have acne scars, or you can make a larger amount and apply it all over your face. Turmeric masks are excellent!

4. Mask with coconut oil and turmeric

This mask provides the skin with plenty of moisture, as well as antioxidants and valuable fatty acids. 

Coconut oil restores the balance of the skin’s own oils, while fighting infections and inflammation at the same time.

ingredients

• 1 tablespoon coconut oil (15 g)
• 1 tablespoon turmeric powder (10 g)

preparation

• Mix the two ingredients together. If the coconut oil is solid, just mix it up a bit with a spoon. Or you can briefly heat it up in the microwave.
• Wash your face with neutral soap.
• Then apply the mask and leave it on for 15 minutes.
• Wash them off with plenty of water.

Because this mask contains oil, you don’t need a moisturizer after washing. However, you should always remember to put on sunscreen.

5. Turmeric, rose water, and chickpea flour

The next mask on our list is a special treat for the skin. Chickpea flour absorbs excess fat, cleanses pores and prevents clogging.

Rose water, on the other hand, is an astringent that moisturizes and works against skin spots.

• 2 tablespoons chickpea flour (30 g)
