I know it have been four months since I stopped writing and decided to come back to do another review. Oh man, I am struggling to complete my final year past few months, thats why!^^ psst also never forget to struggle with my never ended acne nightmare.
So, what I am supposed to do over here is to introduce you with my new skincare regimen which is Bragg Apple Cider Vinegar! (clap,clap)>.< At first, I am quite hesitating to use it although some research, asking people and feedback from the users who are using this has been done. Yeah, Im afraid if it isnt work on me so it just a waste of time and money. MONEY is highlighted.
Yet, have you heard about this Bragg ACV which kinda popular with acne sufferer? They may use this as their skincare regimen to banish acne. After considering and at last I decided to try it and let the power of Almighty determined to cure me or not. It is the best. I used this ACV since March 23th this year and tomorrow will completely a month I am using this.

| ACV nutritional facts and information |
Actually, ACV has lots of benefits and it does not limited to cure acne only but also dandruff, sore throats, help lose weight and so on ~ (browse if you want to know more).As you can see, this ACV is special because it is RAW and UNFILTERED.
Why?
To make the most of your ACV acne treatment, look for vinegar that is natural and organic as possible and preferably has a cloudy mass settled at the bottom. ACV will work the best when the natural ingredient is maintained. With high concentration of Alpha-hydroxy acid (AHA) contents, include malic, citric, glycolic and lactic acid helps in different way.
Glycolic and lactic acid
•Reduces blemishes and acne scars
These AHAs are mild exfoliants and can speed up the removal of dead and damaged skin cells. This ACV treatment makes it a viable option for those who need to get rid of acne scars or dark spot face.
•Malic acid
Has antibacterial properties.
For acne causing bacteria on the skin, it can help your body to fight off skin infections.
•Can balance skin pH level
Since our skin is naturally slightly acidic, the usage of makeup and cleanser can throw the level off balance. Thus, with ACV, it promotes healthy cell generation and sebaceous gland activity.
Ok done with my simple lecture! >.<
Here, I like to feed my reader with information rather giving a blind review without research and confirmation.
Ingredients:
Certified organic, raw apple cider vinegar and purified water. Diluted to 5% acidity.
Packaging:
It is a big-glassed bottle and surely fragile. Handle with care. Amount as 946ml.
Texture and odour:
Watery. Like other vinegar. Smelled stinks and strong of fermented apple scents.
Direction:
Since it is concentrated, dilute it with water to reduce AHA concentration. Since you are new to ACV, use ratio 1 ACV to 3 water. I used ACV:Water =1:2. Make a skin patch test on side of your face before applying to the whole face to avoid irritation. Wet it on cotton pad. Leave for 15 minutes and wash your face. Apply it alternately for the first week to reduce the culture shock to your skin.
For me, I used it as toner everytime after cleansing at least twice daily.
Price:
MYR 28.50 @ $7
Opinion:
ACV really helps my skin to control acne. My skin is less acne compared to the past days until my mum claimed to see the improvements. I still have acne but at least I can control them and went to anywhere with a little smile. I swear the smell is stinks but just bear it! I also use to cure my body acne as well.
Pros:
-easily absorb to skin
-reduce inflammation and redness
-control acne and breakout
-act as a toner
-removes dead skin cells and dirt after cleansing
Cons:
-stinks and strong scent
-drying up face
-sting if applied on open acne wound
Recommendation :
4/5 stars
🌟 Will repurchase? No because this one bottle is already enough to cure my acne
