Common uses

Skin – Ginger essential oil is rich in antioxidants like phenolic compounds, which can help protect the skin from environmental damage caused by free radicals.
It can also help improve circulation in the skin, making it an ideal choice for those with dull or tired-looking complexions.
It has moisturizing properties that help keep your skin hydrated and nourished. Its fatty acids create a protective barrier on your face to lock in moisture and prevent dryness or irritation. It also helps boost collagen production which leads to firmer, smoother looking skin over time.

Mind – contains several compounds that help to reduce stress and anxiety levels. Additionally, these compounds can help to regulate serotonin levels in the brain, which can improve mood and reduce feelings of depression.

Body – contains antispasmodic compounds that can help relieve tension headaches and muscle pain. It is also an effective remedy for insomnia and other sleep problems caused by stress or anxiety.

Hair – Ginger is known to stimulate circulation and invigorate hair follicles, promoting healthy hair growth.
Treat scalp issues: If you suffer from conditions such as dandruff or psoriasis, ginger can help treat them naturally without irritating your skin further or causing unwanted side effects like itching or burning sensations on your scalp.
