Turmeric infused Almond Oil {DIY}

turmeric and saffron infused almond oil

This was a DIY I have done like almost an year back. But, I did not share it because I wanted to try out the oil and wanted to report back the effects. So, let's have a look at the ingredients.

Ingredients
Almond oil - 100ml
Turmeric - 1 tbsp
Saffron - a pinch of strands

Method
Put all the ingredients in a glass bottle/jar and leave for a month undisturbed. Shake the bottle once in a day and if possible leave in direct sunlight for an hour or two everyday. After the stipulated period, strain the oil and it's ready to use.

Results
I have to say that it has not been long since I have started using the oil so can not really report back on everything.

For the starters, it did help with some of my breakouts. I used to spot-apply the oil on the suspicious bumps and they used to disappear by the next morning.

As regards to complexion changes, I do not really think I have noticed any changes yet. Also, the blemishes on my neck do not really look any different but I do keep on bothering the skin repeatedly without letting it heal!

I shall keep on trying it and will report back if I see any changes.

Have you used any turmeric infused facial oils?

How often do you change your bedsheets or pillow covers? {Your Opinion}

My answer to the question is preferably once in a week at least. But, my mom changes the entire bed linen every three days diligently!! I make it a weekly excuse saying I live alone but I do pass on for a month or two sometimes as well.

This ensures hygiene for one. If you have oily and acne prone skin, using same pillow everyday might result in breakouts so changing the pillow covers once in two days might help with controlling the breakouts. And, also, for hair, clean bed covers help to control dandruff and keep oily hair clean. 

Also, if you might have noticed, the day you spread freshly washed bed linen, you get a good night's sleep. You feel fresh when you get into the bed. Also, the room looks dirty and unclean if the linen has not been changed for long.

Oh and if you are down, you have to for sure change them after you are UP :D So, its a good practice to get the bed clothes washed at least twice a week. That's on my next to-do list :)

So, how often do you change the covers?
