About

Turmeric root juice, a bright yellow botanical celebrated in skincare for its anti-inflammatory and brightening benefits.

Curcuma longa (turmeric) rhizome juice contains curcumin, desmethoxycurcumin, and bisdemethoxycurcumin as primary curcuminoids, along with turmerones and essential oils. The EU cosmetics industry widely uses turmeric extract; curcumin is approved as a colorant (CI 75300) in cosmetic products. No EU Annex restrictions apply to the juice form. Contact dermatitis to turmeric is rare but documented.

Skin benefits

  • Curcuminoids inhibit tyrosinase for skin brightening and even tone
  • Powerful NF-κB inhibition reduces inflammatory skin conditions
  • Antioxidant activity protects against pollution-induced oxidative damage

Known concerns

  • Rare but documented contact dermatitis and staining at high concentrations
