To Cleanse
For a very effective anti-acne wash, mix one part ginger, two parts olive oil and three parts sugar. You can also use diluted ginger juice as a toner, just spray and go. Ginger juice even works as a spot treatment for pimples: just dab juice onto the spots.

Anti-Aging
With over 40 antioxidants, ginger can help stop wrinkles and build collagen. To reap the benefits, start by eating it: add it to smoothies, tea or food. You can also mix equal parts ginger juice with rosewater and honey for a sculpting and tightening mask. Leave on for 20 minutes before rinsing.
