Pros:Super cheap! Smells good! Clears your skin up :)
Cons:Really itchy..and is kinda gunky on your face
Bottom Line:i have been using this for about a week or two. At first I was using this everyday, but then it was making me get big cyst bumps on my face. So now I use it every other day or every 2 days. It works great, and i guarantee you'll see results after first use. I rarely get pimples like black heads and stuff but i did get the underground bumps, but this has made a huge difference in my skin.

Pros:Gave visible results after only night! It is light, easy to use, affordable, and it works!
Cons:It may sting a bit.
Bottom Line:Lemon juice is an Alpha Hydroxy Acid (shown to improve overall look and quality of skin; exfoliates), and the natural fruit acids slough off dead skin and promote new skin cell growth.
Don't bother with spending gallons of money on fresh lemons; concentrated lemon juice works just as well and for much less (5 FL OZ. for less than a dollar at the supermarket!)
I had a major breakout and decided to try it (what did I have to lose?), after using it as a toner at night, the next day, the spots that appeared the day before were already reduced!
I highly recommend this!
Recommended:Yes
Usage:Emily has used this item for about a week.
Price Paid:0.75
