3 Skincare benefits of Ginger

Ginger is not just spice for flavoring or for brewing ginger beer drinks. Its benefits are far greater than spice, beverage or beer. As much as it is one of the healthiest plants with a lot of bio-active compounds (which is good for the body), it is also good on the skin to improve your skincare regime. Below are some skincare benefits of Ginger!

• Acne Solution

  Yes, you heard me, this widely used dietary component clears pimples, acne, and other skin blemishes. It has a strong antiseptic property against acne-causing bacteria and is effective as a cleanser for your skin pores.

• Anti Aging

Okay okay okay, nobody is saying ginger will make you sweet 16 forever (unless you’re Pharrell Williams) but this spice is rich in antioxidants that increase blood flow to the skin and clears toxins that make your skin dull. This will leave you with healthy glowing skin and hair even as you grow older. Talk about aging gracefully!

• Anti Dandruff

  This is for those of you that suffer dandruff and nothing seems to work. The antiseptic property in ginger reduces dandruff. Just extract some ginger juice and add to your shampoo or conditioner and watch the magic happen.

There you have it, next time you’re chopping up fresh ginger, remember to take some out for glowing skin.
