Apple cider vinegar is such ingredient found in every household but the benefits of it are lesser known. Its rich in acetic , citric and malic acids. Also  vitamins , enzymes , mineral salts and amino acids which help regulate the Ph level of skin.

It prevents acne/pimples as it holds the antiseptic and anti-bactrial properties helping restore the skin’s Ph levels which prevents breakouts and also improves the skin tone.

Ps – It is the best way to cleanse body and get rid of toxins.

Well , I always believed that eating healthy keeps you on the go but never knew it works for skin but the saying goes true ‘ An apple a day , keeps the doctor away ‘.

Apple juice helps in treating skin issues like inflammation , itchy-cracked skin and also wrinkles.

Water

Water is very well beneficial for human body and the most important ever. But the *must* is adequate water intake.

Water keeps skin cells hydrated , flushes impurities and toxins out of system and keeps wrinkles away. It plumps skin cells which reduces breakouts and acne also making them look less wrinkled.

Without adequate water intake the skin appears dull and pores prominent. As when hydrated , skin becomes plump and elastic and is less likely to crack.

-As more into chilled drinks , I like to add ice cubes in too-

-Intake twice a week-

Ps- It does not taste bad. AT ALL 😛 and also does help with weightloss.
