How to Use Your Apple Cider Vinegar Gel ?

Apply a thin layer of GinGingers Apple Cider Vinegar Gel to the desired area, avoiding broken skin and the eye area. A little goes a long way. Use daily as part of your natural skincare routine on the face, blemish-prone skin, scalp, or targeted body care.

Patch Test Recommended: Before first use, apply a small amount of gel to a discreet area, such as the inside of your forearm, and wait 15 minutes. This helps ensure your skin is comfortable before applying to a larger area.

A Quick Note About the Pinkness

You may notice a slight pinkish hue immediately after application. This is a temporary cosmetic effect caused by the natural properties of real Apple Cider Vinegar and usually fades within a couple of minutes.

If you experience persistent discomfort or an unexpected reaction, discontinue use and seek advice from a healthcare professional.

Why Choose Gingingers

A Calm, Family-Led, Lab Tested, UK's Award Winning Skincare Brand

Before COVID-19 changed the world, GinGingers was already taking shape. I was carefully developing formulations, inspired by my daughter - our very own "GinGinger." She wasn't just the inspiration behind the name; she was my biggest little cheerleader, always curious, always asking questions, and even drawing our very first logo when she was just four years old.

The pandemic may have paused our journey, but it never stopped our belief in creating honest, natural skincare.

Today, GinGingers is proudly family-led, made in Yorkshire, award-winning, independently laboratory tested, and supported by research and digital collaborations with the University of York, Sheffield Hallam University, and Coventry University.

Whether you're choosing GinGingers for yourself, your family, or your customers, every product carries the same promise:

"If it isn't good enough for my daughter, it isn't good enough for yours."
