Vinegar (as a topical)

I was having really bad acne on my cheeks and was waiting for my proactiv to arrive in the mail. I read about ACV online and decided it was worth a shot. I started with a 50% dilution and used as a toner after washing my face at night and in the morning. Within just a few days I noticed all the acne dried up!!!! It was also reducing the red marks!!! I am trying to take ACV orally but I do forget occasionally, and it tastes pretty bad, too. Make sure to brush your teeth after taking it as it is really bad for the enamel!! From what I have read online ACV is great for tons of ailments, not just acne, so taking it orally is a good idea. I would recommend it, as it definitely helped me out in a troubled time.

Im on my 4th month of Diane-35 which made me break out a hell of a lot and made my skin worse than ever and gave me horrible scars and the whole time I was constantly breaking out as in 5-10 new pimples daily. I didn't want to put anymore chemicals on my face so I thought I would give this a try. Now I haven't had a new pimple in a few days and wearing make up makes my skin look nice and smooth and for te first time radiant. Tried drinking but still in the process of mastering!! I actually went out for the first time last night after four months of dodging work and friends so I am so greatful I found this cheap and effective method thanks to you guys. For the Aussies in here try the Mountain Maid ACV which is great cos it's Aussie made too!!

I haven't used this brand but I have been using Bragg's undiluted vinegar (with the mother in it) and, well, this is the first time I've ever left a comment online in a forum like this and I do so just to share that ACV has proven to be the magic bullet for me. I hope I don't jinx myself in writing this but I have suffered with bacne for twenty years! I have tried every single ointment, pill, potion, cream and tablet. I've been on hardcore medication from dermatologists that dried me out so badly my blood was thick and goopy. I've destroyed countless t-shirts and shirts by using all sorts of acids and I'd given up hope of my body ever regulating itself and sorting this crap out. I tried ACV on a whim and I finally have the skin of a normal person. My bacne has all but disappeared and after two months the red marks have faded away. I've read for some that it doesn't work but for me it's been a miracle cure. I had to share this in case someone else out there, like me, has given up hope and is on the fence about trying ACV. I used it undiluted, just splash it on, leave it to dry - it leaves no stains, doesn't smell - and it has as of right now cured me. I feel normal for once and I can't tell you what a relief it is. Try it. It worked for me. I still can't believe it.

One of the best 'products' I've ever used.

I am 30 years old and have suffered from acne since my teens. I've been using expensive Oracea, but I quit a few weeks ago and broke out horribly. I have been using this for 4 days, morning and night I apply it and just leave it on. It's too soon to tell how it will work in the long-term, but it's looking good so far! Oh, and I'm just using what we had in the cupboard, which is not organic.. if I go to buy more, I will buy the organic. I will keep updating every week or two!

I basically dilute apple cider vinegar with water (no green tea) and apply to my face after cleansing. After using this once I already noticed how better my skin was looking.

I'm in my 30's, never had problems with pimples, bumps, black/whiteheads etc until recently. I also have very dry and sensitive skin, so anything like Retinol would make my skin super red and flaky. On the hunt for a skin miracle, I ran across the ACV routine. At first I used it with a backing soda wash, which was to harsh on my skin. Now I wash my face with a 50/50 mix of water and Braggs ACV (takes the make up and mascara off perfectly) and then apply a thin layer of straight ACV on my moist skin without washing it off. Even though my skin is very dry, I don't need to use a moisturizer since after the initial couple of minutes of dryness, my skin becomes soft and dewy. My pores almost disapeared, my skin problems are almost gone after 2 days. This stuff is fantastic and I wish I had known about it years ago. I'm also drinking it 3 times a day and it helps great forheartburn. LOVE IT.

I suffer from quite severe acne and it really gets me down. I have tried sooooooo many products which I either do not have the patience to keep up with as they seem to do nothing or they appear to work only then make my skin look like tracing paper and acne gets worse. I have read about ACV and decided to give it a go. I have been having two tablespoons in green tea every day and have been applying it topically with a cotton pad, leaving it ten or fifteen mins then getting a shower and washing my face with a natural simple soap. Even after a day it has dried up all my deep cyst type acne and has brought out all the ones under the skin so they are yellow heads and can be popped. All the ones I had been squeezing which were weepy have now appeared to be healing quicker and have scabbed up much quicker than usual. It has also left my face much less greasy.I do think this stuff does dry your skin out but provided you apply a moisturiser afterwards its okay. Give this a try!

Use in combination with vitamin A and E Great results

I broke out after stopping birth control and was desperate to restore my complexion to the way it has always been (clear, perfect) I had been taking fish oil, zinc, and evening primrose oil for 3 weeks when I tried ACV. I drink 2 tbsp a day and after 2 days i had no new zits and everything is healing and drying up i couldnt BELIEVE it! i have had no bad side effects, some people break out even more as their bodies flush out the toxins but i didnt. Maybe because i was already eating healthy and exercising. TRY IT!!!!!!!!
