If you cook with turmeric powder, you know it’s loaded with antioxidants and is a major anti-inflammatory among its countless health benefits. The vibrant orange powder not only adds spice and flavor to food but is perfect for skin health.

That’s why Melissa Smith is using turmeric in a do-it-yourself facial mask recipe along with lemon juice. The two simple ingredients make a skincare mask that can not only brighten the skin but help calm inflammation with acne. It has more of a drying component, so if you have dry skin, only leave the mixture on for a few minutes.

Here is the recipe, Melissa followed. You can leave the mixture on for about 15 minutes and then rinse with warm water. Be careful because turmeric does stain and cause a yellowish tint to your skin if you leave it on for too long.

Turmeric Lemon Juice Mask Recipe:

  • 1 tbsp. Turmeric
  • ¼ cup. Lemon Juice (add more to create more of a paste mixture)
  • Brush on face and leave on for 15 to 20 minutes
  • Rinse with warm water
