Turmeric Leaf Oil is derived from the leaves of the Curcuma longa plant, which is widely recognized for its vibrant yellow root used in cooking and traditional medicine. The essential oil is obtained through steam distillation of the leaves, offering a unique fragrance and therapeutic profile compared to the more common turmeric root oil.
This oil is appreciated in aromatherapy and skincare for its fresh, herbaceous scent with a slight spiciness and earthy undertones. Known for its antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties, it is a valuable addition to skincare formulations and holistic health practices.
