16 Apple (The Fruit) Facts You Probably Didn’t Know

13.Apples can help give you a lovely and glowing complexion. Apple Cider Vinegar makes an amazing toner, not only because it breaks up the oil and grossness that causes acne and breakouts, but it also balances skin’s pH levels, which in turn will keep your skin from overproducing oil in the first place.
