Apple cider vinegar- great toner

Apple cider vinegar is a great skin toner for those with acne prone skin, like me. Sometimes when I get a breakout I notice that this really helps as it doesn't not change the PH balance in your skin. it surprisingly gentle while still killing the bacteria from causing the acne breakouts to get worse and prevents them from spreading.
The only unfortunate thing about this is if you leave if on your face smell a bit too much like vinegar! (obviously), but you could apply this as a toner after you have cleansed your face, keep it on for half an hour and then gently rinse off with warm water and then a last splash of cold water! This will still work, it wont be on overnight and have its most intense time to repair the skin but it will still help.
If you decide to sleep with this on, wait for the toner to dry before you apply your moisturizer.
Make sure you dilute the vinegar, mix with some water .

Read my older post " Wake up your skin!" for a great routine in the morning after sleeping with your apple cider vinegar on your face!
