Pros:

cleans all the makeup i THOUGHT i got off

Cons:

smells pretty strong and can burn if you have any open cuts.

I mix Bragg's Apple cider vinegar 50/50 with water and use it as a toner, Wow this stuff takes every bit of residual makeup off! (Not good for the eyes, duh) amazing that ive gone so long without using it thinking my face was clean... FYI Bragg's has a lower acid content than the food store brand of vinegar so it tends to be easier on the face and stomach. As for acne i havent noticed a HUGE improvement. I am faithful in applying it every night followed by tea tree oil and just added vit, E oil to the routine. I was taking it internally in liquid and pill form but not for long. All in all it didnt make my acne worse and I can get over the smell so ill keep at it.

Pros:

Cleared existing acne quickly (within 48 hours), treated dry peeling skin from other products, left skin smoother and more refreshed. Used w/ witch hazel and jojoba oil for moisturizing. No more dry skin, acne and the acne marks are leaving!

Cons:

I don't mind the smell so much. Slight burning sensation, sort of like dermabrasion, disappears when rinsed off after 2-3 minutes. If I do get a flare up, I treat it overnight w/ a sulfur soap wash and aloe vera.

I use it after washing my face w/ mild soap. I apply w/ a cotton ball, let sit on my face for 2-3 minutes, rinse w/ cool water, follow w/ witch hazel and a few drops of jojoba oil. I do this morning and night and have never been happier. My acne reappeared after the birth of my third son in 2005. I have tried everything that used to work, Proactiv, Clearasil, Neutrogena, Clinique, and everything in between; nothing seemed to help, it just made it worse or made my already sensitive skin dry and flaky. I got tired of painful, scabby, flaking skin and switched to all natural products. Now I am happier and satisfied with the results. I highly recommend trying ACV and Aloe vera. They're both available anywhere and are very inexpensive. I paid 4.50 for Braggs Organic Raw ACV and 2.83 for a 32 oz. bottle of AV. Try it!!!

Pros:

Very cheap, dries up skin just enough, has healed a large cystic pimple that was on my chin for WEEKS in just a week. I don't mind the smell :p

Cons:

No real cons that I can see. I know other people don't like the smell, but try using aloe vera gel after applying the vinegar. Works like a charm and I've had cystic acne for years!

Great product, use DILUTED. If you use it undiluted you're asking for irritation; possibly a burn.

Here's what I did to get rid of bacne: 1 cup strong green tea 1 cup apple cider vinegar 4 crushed aspirin Mix them together and put them in a spray bottle. Spray on yoru back and chest twice a day. It burns occassionally, and if you have sensitive skin put more green tea. Once a day in the shower I washed with Neutrogena Clear Body Wash.

Pros:

Works fast

Cons:

Burns a little, not the most pleasant thing to put on, but well worth it

Works very well, Applied about 10 minutes ago and I've already noticed it getting better.

Pros:

Smoothed out skin
scars and red marks faded
no pimples

Cons:

Can burn and leave skin red if not watered down

I wash my face with warm water apply acv let dry for 10 min. then wash with cold water, and I do it about 4 times a day. it works as an antiseptic to kill bacteria and a toner, but it can be harsh. My scars are fading, and deep cystic acne has been brought to whiteheads, something they wouldnt have done on their own. ACV increases circulation so swelling is down. So far my skin is smoother but still lingering redmarks, but the vinegar is surprisingly moisturizing and has eliminate most of my flakes. Its only been 3 days so I figure it may take a few weeks
