Turmeric essential oil has been shown by scientific research conducted between 1971 and 1991 have a stronger action than hydrocortisone.
When dliuted in a carrier oil for massage or a cream or lotion and exposed to direct sunlight it has a strong anti-bacterial action, due to a substance called curcumin (more strongly anti-oxidant than Vitamin E.) It's especially handy in foot and hand preperations thanks to its anti-fungal properties.
It's also used in perfumery especially in fragrances with an oriental influence.
