You can repeat the process twice a day or as per needed. Remember, apple cider vinegar can cause burns or irritation in some. So, for first timers, it is better to use small amounts and do a patch test first before applying it in the whole face. Always dilute the mix before use either with water or coconut oil. Never use apple cider vinegar directly on your face. Here is how to use apple cider vinegar for your skin and hair.

2. Honey and Cinnamon mask: This mask has the ability to fight bacteria and reduce inflammation. Mix two tablespoon of honey and one teaspoon of cinnamon powder together to form a paste. After cleansing your face thoroughly with a medicated cleanser apply the mask to your face and leave it for 10 minutes. Rinse it off and pat your face dry.

3. Spot treat with tea tree oil: Take a drop of tea tree oil and mix it with water. Dip a cotton ball into the mixture and apply it on the affected area. You can repeat this process two times a day.

4. Aloe Vera pack: This pack is best for all skin types. Scrape the gel from aloe plant out with a spoon. Apply that gel directly on your skin as a moisturiser. Reapply it once or twice during the day to get better results.
