| Pros: | Its a great toner. It balances the pH level of your skin. It is all natural (use only raw, organic ACV) and its inexpensive.
**BRAGG'S ACV** |
| Cons: | It smells and when you sweat it releases its smell from your pores. But during normal daily activity you should not experience the smell after it dries. |
| Bottom Line: | Use it as a drink as well. Before each meal drink two tablespoons. If not to help your skin, it will aid in digestion. Nothing to loose in other words. I use it straight up. Over the years, trying everything under the sun, my skin has become pretty resilient to drying of being over sensitive.
I have also mixed it with some fresh lemon juice in the past. This also reduces the smell. Lemons also supposedly help aid the redness in hyperpigmentation, which has been an issue for me. Just be careful and make smaller batches and refrigerate it so the it stays fresh. I used half ACV, half lemon juice. It may sting or irritate some so dilute the mixture. |

| Pros: | It works great my skin has really cleared up :) I started using it after reading about it on these forums and it really has helped so much, I don't really break out anymore and if I do it's usually very minimal.
I've noticed a definite improve |
| Cons: | None really, you get used to the smell and stinging after awhile, that just means its working :) |
| Bottom Line: | It's great I recommend anyone to use it, I use Aspall Organic Apple Cider Vinegar and also Aspall Organic White Wine Vinegar they are both great.
I have a small spray bottle I use with 50/50 mix of water and ACV
I also drink 2 caps in the morning with water and 3 at night :) it really cleans out the crap inside you aswell, acne is an inside and outside problem !
Make sure not to drink the ACV without taking water it'l burn your throat really bad for up to 24 hours! Drink water with it or any other juice. A mistake I made was using a 100% solution of vinegar first in my bottle which really isn't a good idea, start with a 33% ACV 77% water solution or a 50% ACV 50% water solution if your skin can take it.
Best of luck I hope as many people as possible read this, it will help you ! stick to it, the results will come I promise you! stick to it don't give up ! It took me 3weeks-2 months to notice a difference, everyone tells me how my skin glows now :) best its |

| Pros: | Works!! Reduced redness and size of pimple. i love this miracle product except for a few side effects. got pimmples? RUN OUT RIGHT NOW AND GRAB A BOTTLE =) |
| Cons: | Took nearly 2weeks to clear, some problems with esophagus. Still have few SMALL pimples some old, some new. |
| Bottom Line: | I took ACV orally in the first week, I was so stupid I took 2 table spoon undiluted each day. DON'T MAKE THE SAME MISTAKE. The next day when i drank water my throat was so sore. ALWAYS TAKE ACV WITH WATER. 1 tablespoon in 16oz of water. In 8oz of water i still felt the burn. It is very acidic so do research before taking it or else you'll burn your esophagus. It took like 2 weeks for me to see results i nearly gave up coz i didn't think it would work for me BUT IT DID =) I still have like 4 new pimples I don't know what cuased it maybe it was ACV or my hormones. sigh* i can't wait til they all disappear. Before i had like millions of pimples on my forehead (caused by shampoo), then i stopped using shampoo and it is now so much clearer. Right now i am taking a break from ACV coz it burned my esophagus, but when i took, it i felt as if my stomach is cleaner (inside) and flatter =) I will resume taking in a few days. For some people like me it will take longer to see results. DONT' GIVEUP |

| Pros: | -No IB (Initial Breakouts)
-Cheap
-Easy to use |
| Cons: | -Smells
-Minimal Effectiveness |
| Bottom Line: | I did not really have much results with this. The smell is horrible and you can't do it discreetly. Also, it didn't really reduce red marks and while at times it was able to shrink whiteheads, it was not consistent enough to be reliable. |

| Pros: | research tells that it works(its acid, it kills the yeast or bacteria) so you may feel a backup and it has somehow stoped flaking in the 3 days Ive used it. |
| Cons: | the smell and the initial redness |
| Bottom Line: | seems to work, Ill give it a couple more of weeks, the feedback is too good to believe it. Im very skeptic but this seems to work so Ill just hope for the best.
I wont recomend yet till I see the ending results in 2 weeks. |
| Recommended: | No |

| Pros: | softens hair, great detox, helps clear up complexion |
| Cons: | tastes and smells bad but so worth it |
| Bottom Line: | I use Braggs vinegar for a vinegar/water hair rinse. It makes my hair so soft. This is the only conditioner I use. I also drink 2 tablespoons twice a day of the vinegar. Cleans out the system and improved metabolism (also increases energy). My complexion is clearer since I've started doing this. I've also switched to all natural skin and hair products. Makes such a big difference. |

| Pros: | Cheap, effective, fast results |
| Cons: | Stinks and makes your eyes tear up when you apply it. Pretty drying, so don't skimp on moisturizer. |
| Bottom Line: | This was a desperate attempt to get rid of my awful red marks -- though my acne is under control with SA, the red marks make it look like I'm covered in zits anyway! I just rub it all over on my face, undiluted, a few times a day, and moisturize thoroughly after each application. This is probably way too much for most people (so be careful!), and stinks horribly until it dries, but it works for me. 6 years of ugly crimson macules have faded away to a light pink in only a few days, and my skin has a nice glow to it. At this rate, I'll look like I was born with perfect, dewy skin by the end of the month. Best fiver I ever spent! |
