1. Create the Paste
In a small bowl, mix the apple cider vinegar and baking soda until it forms a thick paste. Add the tea tree oil and stir well to combine all the ingredients evenly.
2. Apply to the Affected Area
Dip a cotton ball or pad into the paste until it’s well-soaked but not dripping. Gently place it over the wart or skin tag, making sure the area is fully covered.
3. Keep It in Place
Secure the cotton ball with a bandage or medical tape. This helps the remedy stay in contact with the skin so the ingredients can work their magic overnight.
4. Let It Sit Overnight
Leave the treatment on for several hours or while you sleep. This gives the natural compounds time to start breaking down the growth from the inside out.
5. Repeat as Needed
Some people see improvement within a day or two, but more stubborn growths may require continued treatment. Repeat nightly until the wart or skin tag dries up, shrinks, and falls off naturally.
What You Can Expect from This Remedy
Natural remedies require a bit of patience, but their results are worth the wait. With consistent application, you can expect:
Visible Shrinking of Warts and Skin Tags
The acidic and drying properties of the ingredients start to reduce the size of the growth from the very first night. Over time, the tissue begins to dry out and detach from the healthy skin beneath.
Smoother, Healthier-Looking Skin
Once the growth falls off, your skin will begin healing. You may see a pink or light-colored patch where the wart or tag was, but this typically fades with time. Keeping the area moisturized and protected can speed up the recovery process.
Little to No Pain or Irritation
This remedy is gentle enough for most skin types and should not cause stinging or burning like many chemical treatments. However, always perform a patch test before applying it to a sensitive area.
No Harsh Side Effects or Scarring
Because you’re using natural ingredients, there’s a much lower risk of scarring or adverse reactions compared to conventional treatments.
