I got the chance to try out some of the skincare products offered by the Ginger People. Their skincare line is call Go Energy. They sent me over a full size Ginger Balm and trial sizes of their eye cream and face cleanser.
Let’s check em out:
Smells like ginger so no worries about that normal ickysmell from some balms and cream analgesics . Smooths on well. Slight warming feeling actually worked wonders on my sore muscles.
- what it does
Deeply healing and vegan, GO Ginger Balm is formulated with a blend of actives working together to comfort irritated and damaged skin. This formula’s warming effect, combined with its ability to stimulate blood
flow, relieves sore muscles. Rich in anti-inflammatory and antibacterial powers, it soothes skin and reduces swelling. Packed with moisturizing agents, it helps calm itchy dry skin. - stimulates & relieves
A healer for over 5,000 years, ginger is a natural antiseptic and anti-inflammatory agent that helps speed the healing process of wounds. Its warming effect helps comfort aching muscles and joints. - heals
Organic Tamanu, known as “The Magical Oil,” is a potent anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, antibiotic and anti-neuralgic. This impressive quartet of healing properties makes GO Ginger Balm the go-to product for healing wounds, comforting skin irritation, reducing swelling and relieving nerve pain. - moisturizes & protects
Organic cocoa seed butter, and organic Shea butter improve moisture balance and protect skin against the elements. Organic Carnauba wax, sourced from the leaves of the Brazilian Tree of Life, is vegan, hypo-allergenic and a powerful guardian against environmental damages.
No fragrance at all. Slight tingle under the eyes. I started this morning out with really puffy allergy eyes. Applied Go Ginger Eye Cream and within about five minutes the puffiness had gone down some, not completely but there is a definite difference.
- what it does
GO Ginger Eye Cream provides an immediate tightening effect. Specifically developed to support the integrity of the skin around the eye, this formula increases blood flow to help reduce puffiness, increase elasticity and diminish inflammation. - tightens
Argania Spinosa kernel extract is rich in unique proteins shown in clinical studies to have an immediate diminishing effect on fine lines and crow’s feet. Over time, wrinkles are dramatically reduced. - de-puffs
Organic ginger increases blood flow and encourages the movement of impurities, thus reducing the appearance of under-eye puffiness. - calms & replenishes
Organic Evening Primrose is quickly absorbed by the skin to calm irritated, inflamed capillaries and redness. Jojoba has a similar chemical makeup to human skin and is therefore easily absorbed. Highly restorative, jojoba gently improves the skin’s overall moisture balance without clogging pores.
Faint scent of ginger in the package, add water and the aromatics are great. Did a very nice job cleansing me face. No residue left behind.
- what it does
GO Face Cleanser is a non-drying formula that removes all traces of excess makeup and environmental grime, leaving the skin thoroughly refreshed and vibrant. Rich in antioxidants, GO Face Cleanser detoxifies and energizes the complexion. - deep cleanses
Willow bark extract in GO Face Cleanser is rich in tannins and salicylic acid-like materials. This fresh young bark, harvested in the early spring, gently enhances cell turn over to improve the skin’s appearance. - energizes
Ginger increases blood circulation, which helps invigorate and detoxify the skin. By bringing blood to the surface of the dermis, ginger naturally supports the bioavailability of the formula. - rejuvenates
Aloe Vera and Glyceryl Oleate are both valuable skin conditioning actives that encourage skin hydration.
