Has anyone tried any of these natural remedies for acne?

Has anyone tried using a plain greek yogurt & honey mask? I've heard a lot of good things about it, but I have only gotten around to trying it a couple times. I will say that it made my face really soft and smooth. I've also heard of adding a little bit of lemon juice to it, and that it's supposed to help lighten any scars. I need to try this again soon and see how it goes. Another one that I've just recently read up on is using Apple Cider Vinegar as sort of a toner. You mix it with water (half acv/half water) or you might have to dilute it even more if you have sensitive or dry skin. Just put some on your face, let it dry, the wash it off. It has to be the raw/unpasteurized kind with the "mother" in it. I tried it once today, and it did seem to dry up one of my bigger zits, but I can't say if it's very effective yet or not. The one thing I can say, it has a horrible smell! To me, it smells like dirty socks lol. But if it starts working, then I won't care. The smell goes away once you wash it off. I think I read about the yogurt & honey mask (with lemon added) on acne.org, but I'm not positive and I can't find the link that I used to have saved. I don't remember exactly what I searched for to find it. I read about the acv here: http://www.earthclinic.com/CURES/acne.html#ACV_83040 it's people who have posted about wether or not it worked for them. A few say it didn't, but there are a lot more who say that it did. I think there was also some comments about it on acne.org as well. Have you tried either of these? Do they work for you?
