Amazing Benefits of Cardamom For The Skin

The skin benefits of cardamom can be attributed to its antibacterial and antioxidant properties. The spice helps treat skin allergies and improves skin complexion. It can also be used as a tool to cleanse the skin.

1. Improves Complexion:

One of the benefits of cardamom is that it can give you fair skin. Cardamom essential oil helps in removing blemishes, thus giving you a fairer complexion.

You can either buy skin care products containing cardamom or its essential oil. Or you can simply mix cardamom powder with honey and apply it as a face mask.

2. Improves Blood Circulation:

Cardamom contains vitamin C, which is a powerful antioxidant. It improves blood circulation throughout the body. Also, the many layers of phytonutrients in the spice can improve blood circulation – which invariably enhances skin health.


3. Treats Skin Allergies:

Cardamom, especially the black variety, has antibacterial properties. Applying a cardamom and honey mask (a mixture of cardamom powder and honey) to the affected area can give relief.


4. Imparts Fragrance:

Cardamom is often used in cosmetics to impart fragrance. Due to their distinct spicy, sweet scent, both cardamom and cardamom oil are used in perfumes, soaps, body washes, powders, and other cosmetics. Oriental-style perfumes and other scented products often use cardamom as an ingredient in addition to other essential oils.

5. Offers Therapeutic Benefits To The Skin:

Thanks to its therapeutic effects, Cardamom can be used in skincare products for antiseptic and anti-inflammatory purposes to calm and soothe the skin. When added to perfumes, it can stimulate the senses. Facial soaps use cardamom to impart a warming sensation to the skin. These cosmetics using cardamom for therapeutic reasons are known as aromatherapy products.

6. Works As A Great Masking Agent:

The strong scent of cardamom can ward off unpleasant odors. This makes it a great addition to cosmetic products, such as toners, that serve a specific function but smell unappealing due to the inclusion of certain ingredients. Cardamom is added to these products to mask the unpleasant scent while retaining the benefit of the cosmetic.

7. Offers Lip Care:

Cardamom essential oil is often added to cosmetics that are applied to the lips (such as lip balms) to impart the taste of the oil and make the lips smooth.

You can simply apply the oil to your skin before you go to bed and wash it off in the morning.

8. Helps You Achieve Clear Skin:

Black cardamom helps in flushing out the toxins that could otherwise harm your skin. Chewing some black cardamom detoxifies your body, thus providing you with clearer skin.
