| Pros | Reduces redness and the appearance of scars. Cheap ! |
|---|---|
| Cons | Kind of smells and stings at first. |
| Bottom line | I didn't believe it at first, but this stuff actually is beneficial, cheap, and you see results without having horrible consequences as dry skin, more breakouts or what not. Using it at night, wash your face with a mild cleanser to get rid of all the oil/dirt/makeup you were wearing throughout the day, then use either full strength or dilute the ACV 50/50 ( half warm water, half ACV ) if you think it stings too much. Apply it with a cotton ball or pad to your face, and let it dry. Lotion is unnecessary, the ACV leaves your skin to a nice balance between the natural oils of your face. By the next morning you should see improvements . Should probably only use it at nice since it kind of smells bad, use a daily cleanser/toner/lotion/sunscreen/etc during the day. Try it ! I'm very impressed by something so simple. |

| Pros | seems to be working, when applied as a toner it appears to lighten the redness |
|---|---|
| Cons | the smell? |
| Bottom line | i started drinking braggs apple cider vinegar about ten days ago and noticed that the "barely there" acne was going away and had no new break outs. i was a little skeptical about using the acv as a toner but decided it was worth a try. i have been using it as a toner mixing acv with water in equal parts. again, i have no knew break outs which is a really good sign but i cannot for the live of me get rid of this really difficult pimple. hopefully the acv is just preventing it from getting worse but it does seem to take the redness out of it. even though its been about a week and a half of using this product i am happy with the results. |

| Pros | ACV is natural and has so many other health benefits |
|---|---|
| Cons | addiction to the stuff! (cause it works so well) |
| Bottom line | Unlike evil alternatives like Accutane (rather put up with pimples)ACV is natural, safe and works! Plus, the added health benefits are awesome. I also suffer from bad circulation and stomach upsets which ACV seems to also be sorting out. So, i recommend you have nothing to lose trying Apple Vinegar and everything to gain. I now have my sister and best friend hooked after seeing how my crappy skin has improved in such a short time |

|---|---|
| Cons | It smells bad for a bit, and smells up the room. |
| Bottom line | Give it a try. I use it a couple times a day when i wake up, before a shower and when i go to bed, and i can't complain with the results i have seen. |

| Pros | It's natural... no wierd chemicals for your skin to absorb. It actually seems to be helping. |
|---|---|
| Cons | Slight burn initially, but only for a moment and, yes, the smell is pretty overpowering for a couple minutes. I have sensitive eyes that start watering when I use it. |
| Bottom line | I never had much acne in highschool.. just a pimple or two every now and then. Now, at 25 years old, my face has been exploding non-stop. SO frustrating. It started a few years ago but has gotten to where I have permanent patches of deep red scars and eruptions on each cheek, plus random spots on my forehead, nose, chin, neck, etc. I naturally have more dry skin (everywhere, and dry hair), so when I tried ProActive (and most any acne medication), it just made my skin horribly dried out and flaky and red. As far as diet, I do ALL the stuff you're supposed to do. I'm a total hippie food snob. After spending literally hundreds of dollars on natural products that didn't clear my skin, I overhauled my entire regimen this week and only washed with natural soap, rub ACV on with a cotton ball after I wash my face at night, and during the day use only a natural tinted moisturizer on my face for foundation. It seems to actually be helping. Not completely clear yet, but improvement. |

| Pros | everything |
|---|---|
| Cons | my boyfriend hates the smell |
| Bottom line | Works great - exfoliates, desinfects, restores proper PH for acne skin (it should be slightly lower in order for skin's ability to exfoliate itself). I saturate a cotton ball with it, put some water on it and rub my face. When my acne was worse, I didn't even dilute - just used full strength. It burned but was tolerable. Not for maintanance I use it slightly diluted. |

| Pros | Smooth, clear skin and CHEAP! |
|---|---|
| Cons | Smell |
| Bottom line | I read about applying acv as a toner for black&white heads and acv also helps to reduce the redness & scars, so I tried it and loving it. although smell is horrible but it dissapears in less than 10 min. and it really helped my scars faded. I bought acv from trader's joe and it was less than 3 dollars, what's not to try? :D |

| Pros | Helps to fade red marks, improves feeling of skin |
|---|---|
| Cons | Smells like sweaty socks? |
| Bottom line | I initially tried this as a spot treatment, massaging for 1-2 minutes on affected areas. I initially noticed some redness, but it was nothing too major and showed me that the product was at least doing something to my skin. I had very good results with this, and now use it full strength as a toner. Initially, with the red marks I was using it twice a day. Now, however, I just use it at night, since I'm not sure how long the scent lingers, and I'd really hate for someone to think the sour smell of ACV was coming from me! All in all, I'd highly recommend this, especially for the price. |

| Pros | I love ALL things organic. I can drink it AND apply it topically. |
|---|---|
| Cons | Smell (of course) |
| Bottom line | I started breaking out as an adult and I've tried everything. I didn't realize I needed to detox my liver, so I turned to ACV. I have only been using Bragg's ACV for 3 days and my skin has changed dramatically! Unlike distilled ACV, the organic, raw, unfiltered kind with the 'mother' is GREAT! I put 2 tbsps of ACV and 1 tsp of raw honey in an 8oz cup of purified water (sometimes hot, sometimes not) twice per day. I also apply a 50/50 combo of water and ACV. |
