Systematic review shows promising but early-stage evidence
A systematic review examined clinical evidence for turmeric and curcumin—its active component—in treating skin health. Researchers searched major medical databases and identified 18 studies testing both topical and oral applications across nine skin conditions, including acne.
Ten studies showed statistically significant improvements in skin disease severity when using turmeric/curcumin compared to control groups. While the evidence suggests both oral and topical turmeric products may offer therapeutic benefits for skin, the research remains early-stage and limited. More rigorous studies are needed to confirm effectiveness and understand exactly how curcumin works to improve skin.

A 2-week study tested whether adding a daily supplement containing 500 mg of curcumin (from turmeric) and 10 mg of serratiopeptidase (a natural enzyme) could boost standard acne treatment. Fifty people with mild-to-moderate inflammatory acne received either standard therapy alone—topical benzoyl peroxide and adapalene plus oral doxycycline—or the same standard treatment with the curcumin-enzyme supplement added. Acne severity improved significantly faster in the group receiving the supplement, with excellent tolerability and no reported side effects. The combination appears to work by targeting inflammation and may eventually reduce dependence on prolonged antibiotic use, though larger and longer studies are needed to confirm lasting benefits.

Acne-free skin

Perfectly! My intestines and joints feel healthier! Curcumin and Bromelain are both anti-inflammatory, aiding tissue repair and improving vascular permeability. This combination effectively addresses various bodily issues. It's difficult for Europeans to consume enough turmeric, so this supplement is ideal. After three weeks of taking it, my acne disappeared, leaving my skin smooth and healthy, while joint pain reduced significantly. I took one capsule daily with breakfast, maintaining proper intake of fats like butter or coconut oil as it's fat-soluble.

Clear skin result
Super Good turmeric. I love it! It’s best to take it loose from iHerb, along with a teaspoon of boiling water and coconut oil. My facial skin became perfect, free from acne and rashes, feeling velvety. I drink good turmeric daily from iHerb, which should be bright orange. It promotes bile flow, helping to reduce inflammation.

Ineffective for acne
I have been taking this for two months in hopes it would help with my acne, but I haven't noticed any improvement and my acne remains. I do maintain my intake as it’s an excellent antioxidant and convenient in size and form. Other than that, there’s not much to say.
