Here’s one to avoid trying at home: using turmeric on your skin as a little DIY face mask.
Star Wars star Daisy Ridley has found herself in what we’d like to call a slight spot of bother, after googling at-home remedies for skin care. And she stumbled upon one that told her rubbing excessive amounts of turmeric in your skin could be good for it.
The actress has posted a fairly self-deprecating video to Instagram explaining the whole saga, admitting she may have gone a tad overboard and taken matters into her own hands when it came down to how liberal she was with its application.
“I googled at-home remedies for skin, and I may have been slightly liberal with the turmeric,” the actress said in her video.

I was raised Hindu and before we get married we are rubbed with Tumeric as a pre cleansing ritual. It's applied all over the body multiple times and We leave it on for 24 hours and then have to wash it off without soap. It took me about 30 minutes in the shower of scrubbing to get it off. Thankfully I wasn't too yellow afterwards.
What did she think would happen? It's like complaining about being wet whilst in the shower.
To be fair, if she doesn't cook much with turmeric, she might not have known how badly it can stain!
