Can turmeric permanently stain my white skin yellow?
I eat lots of turmeric (i read it was healthy and like the taste) and pour it on everything. Often times the whole area around my mouth is turned yellow. It takes about a day or two for this to disappear. I am wondering if like a child making funny faces, my skin might not be permanently turned yellow. Can turmeric permanently alter the color of my skin?

No, not permanently.
It is used as a dye and will stain your skin but it will come off your skin eventually.
