Home Remedies For Skin Care That Actually Work
Here are some effective home remedies:

Teeth Whitening
Rinse with three parts of water and one part of apple cider vinegar which makes a great teeth-whitening solution. Mix it with toothpaste, and brush normally.
Clear Skin
Use Apple cider vinegar as a facial cleanser. It has the power to cleanse the skin of bacteria and debris. To create an all-natural apple cider vinegar face wash you have to take 1/4 cup warm water, 1 tablespoon of apple cider vinegar can clean your face gently with the mixed solution.
Natural Toner
The role of toner in skincare is to cleanse and tighten the skin to help protect it from bacteria and other impurities. Apple cider vinegar is an astringent, which can function as a toner when applied to the skin. Mix 1 part of apple cider vinegar with 2 part of water and use it as a toner. If your skin is sensitive to certain skincare products, this mixture can be further diluted before use.
2. Mouth Wash
Being an antiseptic product, it is so much more than merely a mouthwash. One can use products like Listerine for multiple purposes which includes:
Curing Toenail Fungus

Dandruff Issues
Bid adieu to dandruff with mouthwash. Massage the mouth wash into your scalp then rinse it out with your usual shampoo and you will see how it removes your dandruff as it is also an anti-bacterial and anti-fungal.

Once you have a paste, apply it to your teeth using a toothbrush or your fingers. Leave it for approximately two minutes and rinse with water.
You can also try adding a little amount of baking soda to your toothpaste. Or, you may purchase a ready-made toothpaste that contains baking soda as an ingredient.
