Apple Cider Vinegar for Acne

I recommend applying ACV to your face topically once or twice a day. Then once a day, I take lemon iced tea powder and make a glass of iced tea and then add a tablespoon of ACV to it. It helps acne a lot and the ACV and it gives the iced tea more of a lemon taste.

I went to this web site and decided to try apple cider vinegar for my acne. I started drinking 2 tablespoons 3 times a day and applying it topically at night, and sometimes I would put vitamin E on my face in the morning after I rinsed it off. Well I wasn't really getting any results until about 2 months into this regimen. I almost wanted to give up but I kept on it and I now have a great complexion. I actually now only take the ACV internally maybe once a week but I still apply the ACV to my face daily. I had, had acne since I was 13 and I am now 21. ( 8 years!) I would usually have about 15-20 pimples on my face at one time and right now at this moment I have only one!! Which will soon go away. I've noticed that the ACV also heals the pimples quicker and it is also helping with my many years of dark scars. The ACV has made a world of difference on my face. Oh, I also stopped using all of those special acne face washes which were not helping anyway. I only use a mild hand soap on my face in the evening then put the ACV on with a cotton ball, then in the morning I simply rinse my face with warm water. I don't use any soap which also has been working way better than those acne soaps. I also have been visualizing my face being smooth and clear which is also a help because our thoughts have a lot to do with what is manifesting in our life.

"try the 50/50 acv and water dip cotton ball in it and rub on face just like witch hazel, if that's too strong dilute 20/80 acv/water. also put a fourth of a cup of acv in your bath water, this all helps me with my skin.

I have suffered from acne for as long as I can remember. I recently started applying ACV before bed and my acne is completely gone, my pores are much smaller and my skin looks so much healthier. I only apply it at night because I don't dilute it and it has a strong odor. I would highly recommend everyone to at least try this...what do you have to lose?

I've struggled with acne for about 10 years now, and I'll admit I had some major doubts about the apple cider vinegar cure. I tried various medications, including two rounds of Accutane (a powerful antibiotic). The Accutane worked for about a year after I took it, but then things started going back to how they were. I was unbelievably frustrated. I couldn't possibly imagine how ACV would work - something which seemed so simple. But it did. I'm still in shock from the amazing results. I'm using organic, unfiltered / unpasteurized ACV with "mother" (5% acetic acid). I take two tablespoons stirred into a medium-sized glass of water (you'll get used to the taste), three times a day. After only a few days, I started seeing a difference. Blemishes stopped appearing almost entirely, and those that did appear were very small. Now, after about two weeks, I've stopped breaking out altogether. My pores have become much smaller, and my skin really does have a new glow to it. I'm still really shocked when I look in the mirror. The true cures for our ailments come from the earth. God created the elements which compose that which will heal us. Apple cider vinegar is no exception. It truly works. There is nothing to lose - try it! Honestly, if it helped heal me, it can help heal anyone. I'd like to say thanks to everyone who wrote in to Earth Clinic to express their success with ACV. If it were not for all the positive testimonials, I probably never would have tried it. Thanks Earth Clinic - the information you provided made a major difference in my life. God Bless!

Apple Cider Vinegar and Garlic cure my pimples in just 5 days. I use twice a day acv on my pimples and just one time garlic on the pimples. it works amazing. have a try.

okay...so i was very speculative of the apple cider vinegar treatment for acne, but after using almost every treatment out there my doctor said what was left was accutane. Now, knowing i wanted to do everything to avoid having to go on accutance, i came to this site and was intrigued by the entry of someone who TRIED accutane with little result but apple cider vinegar worked for them. I began taking 2 tablespoons of apple cider vinegar (pure, 5% acetic acid) in a glass of water 3 times a day and I SWEAR TO YOU...my face has become soo clear with NO breakouts. THANK THE LORD! even my doctor was amazed at how much my skin improved in such little time! God does really make a natural cure for all those stubborn problems. if youre doubtful, TRY IT, you have nothing to lose but your acne.

Apple Cider Vinegar is the best acne cure that you could possible have! Sure it doesn't taste very good but beauty does come with a price and thankfully it isn't an expensive one... But I also use proactive face wash along with it. Put it [ACV] on your face twice a day and drink with water 3 times a day. It's funny to watch when someone picks up the wrong water by mistake though!!!

I am drinking the apple cider vinegar with water for two weeks now, and glad to see no more pimples on my face. I also apply it on my face at least twice a day after I wash with a cleanser and use witch hazel as a toner. It is amazing stuff.

I have had cystic acne since I was 12. I have been under the care of a dermatologist for several years and have used every product available; including two rounds of Accutane. Now that I am 24, I am trying more natural, less invasive cures. I did notice a significant improvement in my skin when I cut out ALL dairy; it's really not that good for you anyway and there are many delicious alternatives, you won't miss it. My diet is mostly vegan now. I originally tried ACV for a recurrent yeast infection, and then read about it's success with acne. I definitely noticed an immediate improvement; I put a capful in my large water bottle that I drink daily anyway and also use it as an astringent, but I dilute that too. I get a lot of sore throats and the owner of my health food store recommended ACV in tea with honey; that also seems to help. It's really inexpensive and worth a shot.

... Apple Cider Vinegar for Acne. My wife has always had trouble spots for acne right on her cheek next to her ears. Apple Cider Vinegar is the only thing that has had a real effect. She applies it once or twice a day, with a cotton ball. Great results. We also just received Apple Cider Vinegar capsule that we can take to avoid drinking it. They are available at GNC, but we order them online for cheaper.

I've had acne for the last 14years, am 29, got worse after age 18. Had tried all, including chinese and african herbal treatments, nothing worked. Stumbled on your site and started the ACV remedy and only 3months and my skin is almost perfect, by the way it was all over my face,chest, back and upper arms. Will never stop using it. Recently was having black tea and put ACV one teaspoon and it tasted nice like lemon tea, want to continue taking ACV in my tea, is it ok, does the heat or tea leaves interfere with the effectiveness of the remedy. Also which vinegar works better for the hair rinse white or ACV? Have dandruff. Thanks.

re: ACV CURING MY ACNE PLUS LOOSE STOOLS, please read my story.. I would like to start by saying how great and fast a cure ACV it's been for my problem with acne. My case it's very specific, because it started at 18, when i was in my darkest hour,moving to a different place and being extremely unhappy, but my situation recently changed, i am 24 now, also i came back to my country, but after trying all the normal and homeopathic medicine have to offer except accutane, i decided to give ACV a try. Reading about all i thought that my case might have something to do with my acidity and alkalinity levels, (my acne it's only in the face, not in the t-zone, just the cheeks, my hair and skin is very oily, my blood very thin and hard to coagulate and i have no antecedents of acne in my family..) I found some here in my country, although i wasn't feeling too confident because it was very hard to find, they all have regular apple vinegar. well i started to drink it, and i've been doing it for almost a month now. my acne it's almost gone, my skin quality changed completely, i am very happy, not totally cured but getting there. PLEASE TRY IT

Now my real problem it's that i've been taking two tbs. of ACV in water with my food, that's been mostly vegetables and rice and potatoes, maybe some chicken but no red meat. and it's making me have some mild diarrhea and it's uncomfortable because i have to run for bathrooms all the time. i've been reading and i don't know if i should take the baking soda with it, replace it with lemon, or take it hours before eating.. please help me, because i don't want to stop taking it, and be back to my acne self. ok i thank you very much for your attention, and hope to see the answer soon, and post it to so it can help people too. it's been a long and painful trip, but i'm good to see that i'm dealing with it thanks to your site.

i went to the market and bought a brand named SUN SELECT ACV that has 5% acidity. i tried the apple cider vinegar for one night as i applied it over my face remember i dilute it with water before applying it, an amount that suit to cover my whole face i just observed the next day i woke up the oiliness in my face decreased, the bumps which i personally call active irrate flattened up and the redness also decreased. i am quite disturbed regarding some infos of ACV from different sites that ACV can burn skin and can cause scarring too becaus i know its a vinegar and also can cause enamel damage(teeth), throat burns, esophageal burns, and stomach burns because i also drink apple cider vinegar mixed only with water. help me give me the best possible true explanation regarding those claims to clear my mind so i wont be disturbed too much. thank you
