Apple cider vinegar makes a great facial toner and mask. If you or your kids have acne, use it on your face to help. I make a mask out of clay powder mixed with the vinegar. Smear it on your face and let it sit for about 30 minutes. I also use it as a toner after opening my pores with hot water and a cleanser.

It makes a great gargle. Mix it in some warm water with salt, honey and hot sauce and it will relieve a sore throat instantly. My kids do not like this, they say it tastes nasty, but they have to admit that it works.

It usually only takes a couple of hours to do the trick and will not give you stomach cramps many other laxatives give you.

When it comes to cleaning, apple cider vinegar is a powerhouse. I like to use it to clean the tile in the shower. Mix a cup of the vinegar into a gallon of warm water and spray the shower walls with it. Soak them well. Let sit for a few minutes but not until it is dry. Wipe down the walls with a damp cloth and the built up soap scum will come off easily.

You can use this vinegar to clean counter-tops in the kitchen and the floor too. Do not worry about the odor, it dissipates rather quickly. As a matter of fact, it will eliminate odors in your house.
