About

Wild turmeric root water with brightening and anti-inflammatory skin benefits.

Curcuma aromatica belongs to the Zingiberaceae family and shares the curcuminoid and essential oil profile of Curcuma longa. It is not restricted under EU cosmetic regulations. The steam-distillate format used in root water reduces the risk of sensitisation from higher-molecular-weight curcuminoids. Case reports of contact dermatitis to turmeric exist but are uncommon.

Skin benefits

  • anti-inflammatory
  • antioxidant
  • skin brightening

Known concerns

  • may cause contact dermatitis in rare cases
  • mild skin irritation possible in highly sensitive individuals
