Mix well.
Apply to clean face — avoid eyes and lips.
Leave on 5–10 minutes (not longer).
Rinse with cool water.
Moisturize after.
🚫 Stop immediately if burning occurs.
Option 2: Drink Ginger Tea for Internal Support
Warm ginger tea with lemon and honey:
Supports digestion
Promotes hydration
Adds antioxidants to your daily intake
☕ Enjoy 1–2 cups daily — great in the morning or after meals.
Option 3: Use Skincare Products With Ginger Extract
Look for serums, toners, or moisturizers that list “zingiber officinale extract” among other active ingredients.
✅ Best when combined with:
Vitamin C
Niacinamide
SPF (non-negotiable!)
🧴 Avoid products with high concentrations of raw ginger oil — risk of sensitization.
⚠️ Safety Tips
Rule
Why It Matters
❗ Never apply raw ginger directly to skin
Can cause chemical burns or contact dermatitis
❗ Not for broken or acne-prone skin
May increase irritation
❗ Patch test before trying any new product
Apply behind ear or inner arm for 24 hours
❗ Don’t expect dramatic results
Natural ≠ fast or powerful
🚫 Pregnant women or those on blood thinners should consult a doctor before consuming large amounts.
❌ Debunking the Myths
Myth
Truth
❌ “Ginger tightens skin like a facelift”
False — temporary tightening comes from drying, not lifting
❌ “It replaces Botox”
Dangerous exaggeration — different mechanisms entirely
❌ “Rubbing ginger on dark spots will remove them”
Unproven — and risky due to potential irritation
❌ “All natural means safe”
Not true — poison ivy is natural too
