1. Turmeric and milk

Turmeric, when mixed with milk and applied to the skin, helps fight free radicals that damage your skin. On one hand, turmeric helps to brighten your skin, prevent hyperpigmentation, and get rid of acne and scars. On the other hand, alpha hydroxy acids (AHAs) that are present in milk exfoliate the dead cells in the skin, leaving your skin moisturised and healthy-looking.
