Hygiene and Beauty Uses for Apple Cider Vinegar

Hey everyone, I'm coming at you with another Apple Cider Vinegar post. I've been doing some research on the health benefits and I wanted to share with the community. You can check out my last post here Health Benefits of ACV with the "Mother". Today's post will be about using Apple Cider Vinegar (ACV) for hygiene and beauty. Lets get to it...

Hair Rinse: ACV helps remove product build-up and balance your scalp's pH level. Try mixing 1/3 cup of vinegar with four cups of water and apply weekly.
For dandruff, do this instead:

1. Spraying your scalp with equal parts vinegar and water (mixed).
2. Wrap a towel around your head and leave it to sit for an hour.
3. Wash out and repeat up to twice a week.

Facial Toner: Diluted apple cider vinegar on a cotton ball makes a simple facial toner and cleanser to help prevent breakouts. You also apply to bruises to help heal quicker.

Deodorant: ACV helps kill odor-causing bacteria, so dab a bit under your arms for a natural deodorant.

Oral Health: Gargling with diluted ACV can help to eliminate bad breath and whiten teeth. Keep in mind, however, that apple cider vinegar is highly acidic. The main ingredient is acetic acid, which is quite harsh, so you should always dilute it with water before swallowing. Drinking straight ACV could damage your tooth enamel or the tissues of your mouth and throat.

Foot Odor & Body Odor: Wiping your feet down with ACV can help to eliminate odor-causing bacteria and smells from your feet. Rubbing it on your armpit can also help neutralize body odor.

Soothing Aftershave: ACV makes for a great natural aftershave. Just dilute it in an equal portion of clean water, shake well, and then apply to your face after shaving.

Well there you have it. Do you have any ideas on how to use ACV for hygiene and beauty? Please share. Thanks for stopping by. Take care and stay safe out there.
