3 Beauty Benefits of Apple Cider Vinegar

Apple Cider Vinegar has a number of health benefits, but did you know about the even bigger list of beauty benefits this little elixir holds?

Apple Cider Vinegar (ACV) is best known for it’s antibiotic properties, acidity, and ‘good’ bacteria. These 3 things help to improve the overall health of our skin and hair in a multitude of ways.

Here are 3 beauty benefits of ACV.

1. Facial Toner

Combine 1 tbsp of ACV with 2 cups of water then place the mixture in a reusable bottle. Apply a small amount of your homemade ACV toner all over your face using a cotton ball. This facial toner will help to boost circulation (therefore reducing the signs of aging,) minimize pores, and prevent acne.

2. Sunburn Remedy

There’s nothing worse than a sunburn- thankfully, ACV will help to promote healing and reduce redness. Combine 1/2 cup of ACV with 4 cups of water. Apply the mixture with a clean wash cloth the affected area (it feels even better when the mixture is cooled.)

3. Purifying Hair Rinse

Mix together 2 tbsp ACV and 1 cup of water. Rinse your clean, damp hair (after shampooing in the shower) with the mixture and follow up with your conditioner. Apple Cider Vinegar is very acidic and this acidity will help to get rid of any product build up making your hair healthier and more shiny. You should do this rinse once every couple of weeks.
