Vinegar (as a topical) Reviews

A few things to note:

1. You should be using Apple Cider Vinegar--Braggs is good if you can find it.

2. It's to treat oily skin.

3. Use it as a toner or a face wash.

I have been using it for 4 days so far, in the morning and before I go to sleep. I use it for 10 minutes than wash off. By the way I dilute it in 3 times more water than the vinegar, it works pretty well for the red marks.

It burns a bit, so I highly recommend diluting the vinegar. It seems to slowly help scars fade, but this takes time. I wouldn't recommend it for eliminating acne all by itself because vinegar does not get rid of it.

Oh yeah, and in another rating someone said vinegar is a base, well that's completely wrong.

Vinegar is an acid. The PH of vinegar is 3. The scale of PH runs from 0 - 14, with water being neutral. Water has a PH of 7. Anything below 7 is an acid, and anything above 7 is a base. This is common junior high school science.

Please don't spread incorrect information on this website. There are people here trying these methods, and by providing bad information you can really mess up someone's skin. Thanks.

Works great, overnight!

I've been using just normal white vinegar for about 3 weeks now, my face has cleared immensely. At first it did sting (just for a few minutes in the initial applications), but using it after a gentle cleanser at night and leaving it until i wash it off in the morning, it has worked wonders. New blemishes do not cause as much pain and redness, as well as scars fading dramatically. God save white vinegar.

First you must purchase White House Apple cidar vinegar, it is slightly more expensive but come on we're talking about pennies. Their distilling process leaves most of the ingredients in the product. Many people through diet and simple body chemistry make up are running a bit on the acidic side. Your body is constantly trying to PH balance. Vinegar is a light to mild base consisting of 24 amino acids and a very high level of magnesium. You should warm your face to open the pores and do not wash the vinegar off until it has dried/absorbed. Overuse and red skin is from irritation and removal of the skins natural oils. Vinegar is not meant for deep scars, try sand paper! Thomas J.

this is one of the few things i've used that gives you almost IMMEDIATE results. i use it in a dilute form: 1 part apple cider vinegar with 9 parts water, giving a 10% solution. i put this on at night with a cotton ball and wash it off in the morning. this helps tremendously in reducing scars in a natural, painless way, and if used properly, can be a great asset to anyone's skin care routine.

I mixed 1 pt AC vinegar with one pt H2O and put it in a spray bottle. After I shower, or cleanse my face, I spritz it on my face and gently swab with a cotton ball. It is a great toner that seems to accelerate the turnover of skin. I have noted a significant decr in new acne/blocked pores and the scars seem to be lighteneing. It has been over 2 weeks now and continues to improve. The first day or two it burned a bit, but not anymore. I think it is worth a try. If your skin is sensitive, just dilute it more.

I have been splashing a bit of ACV twice a day for the past week or so after washing with a gentle cleanser. It has already cleared up almost every single red spot on my face. I can't believe this! I am sooooo EFFIN HAPPY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I take the vinegar orally and it helps a ton. one tablespoon of apple cider vinegar with one tablespoon of honey mixed together.
