Not on my face. But I use ACV on my hair after washing with shampoo bar.

No adverse effects next day. My skin seems perfectly fine. I will probably put it on my face only 2 times a week from here on out. But I plan on drinking two teaspoons a day until bottle is gone.

My aunt's name was Dorothy, crazy as a bedbug. She had this one amazing skill whistling full classical and popular tunes pitch perfect and was a minor dinnerclub sensation dressed in black and known as 'THE WHISTLER' no name revealed. She consulted those old horoscope magazines convinced her big break would come if only our many friends and no few relatives in the industry would recognise her greatness. Mention anything japanese and she would let out this JRR TOLKIEN dragon hiss because they taught them to do that at Van Nuys HS in WW2. She was a morphine addict and spent most of her life sleeping or shopping GOODWILL with her disability checks. She drank ACV and all manner of other crazy old health aids and died of cancer within weeks after my maternal grandparents passed.
A lot of these products have some good uses. But many are touted as some miracle without definitive study. I went on a tumeric kick because it allegedly breaks up plaque causing dementia. One crazy aunt is enough to put the fear of mental illness in you. My eggs were bright orange and tasted like SH** Oh, but it's in ancient ayurvedic medicine.
Then I read it can cause kidney issues and I've been fighting stones for several years.
So use it as a face and scalp scrub sparingly a few times a week so as not to muck up your skin PH.
And please, never, ever call me Dorothy!

you must be careful. if you leave it on the skin and don't dilute it a mild chemical burn can occur. it is good for exfoliation and combating oily skin. however i would use it like alum and only leave in on the skin for a short period of time before rinsing it away. I keep a bottle around just encase I stumble upon a skunk at work an heaven forbid get sprayed. adding it to a bath is suppose to kill odor as vinegar is a good natural cleaner.

Nasty stuff yes, but my guess she is drinking the ACV, apple cider one as it actually has quite a few medicinal properties and i good for the inside of the body. Yes i have done my share of drinking it as well. mix it with juice or have a juice chaser for after you drink it down like a shot.

But agreed don't use it straight out of the bottle. Dilute it as suggested 4 parts water to 1 part ACV. But even 50/50 is better than straight. Just mix it up in smaller batches because of the water added. Use distilled water if at all possible, and if not that then use a bottled water. just don't use tap water.

I also use organic apple cider vinegar, every day, in food, in water, or just straight up, at times. I enjoy it and the flavour it imparts onto the food. I know it helps akalize the body. Smile

I didn't know one could drink ACV! Why kind of medicinal properties does it have?
