Things You'll Need:
- Apple Cider Vinegar
- Lemon Juice
- Large Bowl

Step 1
USE APPLE CIDER VINEGAR
Apple cider vinegar has a high acidity and can help restore the delicate acid mantle to the skin's surface. Apple cider vinegar can be purchased at any health foods store or natural foods market, and can be applied to the skin without dilution. Although it is less commonly used than over-the-counter products, apple cider vinegar is not a new acne treatment. This holistic acne treatment can reduce inflammation and prevent the over production of oils in the skin. -
Step 2
USE LEMON JUICE
Lemon juice is also very acidic, and can be helpful in protecting the skin from harmful free radicals. Lemon juice can be taken internally or applied topically, and can both restore acid to the skin and gently exfoliate dead skin cells. -
Step 3
STEAM THE FACE
Fill a large bowl with near-boiling water, and lower the face no closer than 12 inches above the bowl. Drape a towel over the head, and steam the face for 5-7 minutes. Steaming the skin can open up the pores of face, releasing excess oils and trapped dirt and bacteria. Steam the face 2 times per month for maximum benefits.
