Cloves and Other Natural Ways to Remove Skin Tags and Warts Safely at Home

Tip 10: Apple Cider Vinegar’s Tangy Bite for Softening Layers

You might picture vinegar’s sharp tang on salads, but on skin, it evokes a fizzy cleanse. Tom, 35, battled a stubborn wart on his thumb from gym showers. Soaking a cotton ball in diluted ACV, he taped it on, waking to less roughness after a week. Its acidity may mimic salicylic acid, peeling layers gradually. Mix 1:1 with water, apply 15-30 minutes daily. The vinegary whiff fades fast, leaving smoother skin. Skeptical about the sting? Dilute more. Curious for something sweeter? Hold tight—the fruit-based hack ahead tastes like victory.
