So you have an unsightly beauty mark that has been bothering you for years and not only is it in the most awkward of places, but who knows if the fate of this little imp is cancerous later on down the line? Instead of getting it surgically removed, you can remove moles and skin tags safely and naturally from the comfort of your own home.
Remember when I said beauty marks find themselves in the most awkward of places? Yes, well, mine happened to be located on the inside of my right boob just high enough that if I were to wear a top that had a lower cut it would smile at the world. It drove me crazy for years. It wasn’t a tiny little thing either. I tried this trick to naturally remove moles and it worked! I was blown away. There’s a scar in place of the mole, but I would take that scar over the mole any day of the week. Plus scars aren’t cancerous and they too can be helped.
What You’ll Need:
- Apple Cider Vinegar
- Cotton Balls or Cotton Rounds
- Medical Tape or Band Aids
- Coconut Oil
- Lavender Essential Oil
What To Do:
- Trim the cotton ball/round to make sure it is the same size as the targeted beauty mark you want to remove.
- Soak the cotton ball in apple cider vinegar (make sure it’s not dripping, but still is full of ACV)
- Use medical tape (medical tape will work better to lock in moisture, but you can also use a band aid) to tape the soaked cotton ball to your mole or skin tag. *Avoid getting ACV on your skin other than the mole or skin tag for prolonged periods of time – for hopefully obvious reasons. You can trim the cotton ball more if needed to manage how much of your skin is getting exposed to the ACV.
- Leave for 8-12 hours. I did this at night while I was sleeping so I didn’t have to keep it on during the day and that also allowed it to breathe. I did this repeatedly for about a week until the acid in the ACV ate away at the mole completely.
- I used both coconut oil and lavender essential oil to help with the healing process and to make the scarring less prominent.
You’ll notice that the mole (I can’t account for skin tags although I know the ACV will work for them too) will get darker and look worst before it looks better. You may also notice an itchy or tingly feeling and some redness around the mole from the ACV doing its job. It’s perfectly normal and part of the process – just keep chugging along.
Let me know how this works for you!
