Can I Wash My Face With Soap After Applying Turmeric?

Published in Turmeric Skincare 1 min read

No, you should avoid washing your face with soap for a certain period after applying turmeric.

According to recommendations, you should avoid using soap on your face for 24 to 48 hours after removing a turmeric face pack. This is to allow the turmeric to work effectively on your skin.

Why wait to use soap?

  • Turmeric Needs Time: Turmeric needs time to properly absorb into your skin and provide its benefits.

    • Turmeric face packs are sometimes applied unevenly, which may hinder the full effects of the turmeric if it doesn't cover the entire face.
    • Washing with soap too soon could remove the turmeric before it has a chance to fully work.
