Gurkemeie grows primarily in India, Asia, and Central America. Gurkemeie’s active ingredient is called curcumin which is used as an inflammation blocker. Gurkemeie is generally found in the root of the Gurkemeie plant. Curcumin in Gurkemeie has many benefits, including anti-inflammatory properties as well as antioxidant properties. Curcumin is what makes Gurkemeie such a healing force when it comes to skincare. Gurkemeie is used in skincare to heal the following skin issues.
