Apple Cider Vinegar

I keep reading that this is good for the skin. Is it true? I never know what to believe when it comes to the internet. If it is, why?

Thanks!

WebMD has some information on it. The important thing when figuring out what to believe, is to look at where the information comes from. If it's coming from a company selling apple cider vinegar, be wary! Or at least look for objective information and scientific studies that support whatever they're claiming. According to WebMD, some of the claims have evidence behind them, others don't. www.webmd.com/diet/apple-cider-vinegar

Using it topically?

hmmm - I guess, if diluted it would be okay. It would probably have astringent and antibacterial properties.

But honestly, why not just stay with professional products that you know are safe and effective.

Oh - and stop believing those pop-up ads! Better yet - just stop reading them and do real research. These ads are very misleading - sometimes they are in a format that people think they are reading real research articles.

Well my hair girl told me to dilute apple cider vin and put it in my to help with the damage. So I looked it up and read a lot on it and found out if diluted you can use it asa toner. I didn't like how it made my hair felt but I love it on my skin.
