| Pros | Within a week, i can notice that it dried out existing acnes, post-acne marks slowly fading (not completely but i can see the difference after using it), and makes my skin smooth. |
|---|---|
| Cons | Stinging sensation is to be expected; I think different ppl have different tolerance towards the stinging or "burn". Ive practically used everything there is in attempts to treat acne before, so putting 100% lemon juice (undiluted) didn't burn my face. Just to be safe, slowly start with diluted lemon juice for your first trial. |
| Bottom line | Tried this for about a week and i can say that i have a good feeling about this. I'm not expecting my face to be completely acne-free and scar-free, but one week trial with lemon has given me hope. I'm gonna keep doing this and hope it will be the cure that i've been waiting for! All the best to everyone! |

| Pros | helps my moderately severe acne quite a bit (doesn't get rid of it, but definitely makes a differences) |
|---|---|
| Cons | messy, can sting |
| Bottom line | When I used this with olive oil, i eventually started breaking out. But a few drops of lemon juice on its own or w/ aloe vera has helped. Can't wear it out because of sun-sensitizing potential (or at least, I don't recommend it). I don't like to leave it on, even at night, because it's sticky, so I just use it as a pre-wash treatment. |

| Pros | Cures acne Lightens and removes scars Smells nice |
|---|---|
| Cons | Does not stop outbreaks May "burn" a little, if not diluted |
| Bottom line | I've fought with mild to moderate acne for years now. But thanks to this natural remedy my acne is almost completely gone. My skin is smooth to the touch and only some very light blemishes is all what's left. Here you can look at my progress: [link removed] used a special procedure, though, which is a bit too detailed and too long for this review, so if you want to know everything, feel free to email me: john.brandon55@[link removed] |

| Pros | lightens acne marks it looks like! smells fresh didn't make my face red my skin tone looks more even and some of my marks look faded I don't think it made me break out |
|---|---|
| Cons | stings and itches for some minutes after applying, which is quite annoying doesn't get rid of active acne, at least not in my case |
| Bottom line | I'm very pleased with the results so far, however I've only used it for a week. My skin tone looks more even and my acne marks (I don't have that much active acne anymore) look like they are fading. But it could be a placebo effect :P It didn't break me out, I did however get about 4 new pimples when I just started using it, but I think that was just a coincidence because I was almost on my period, and when I'm having a period I always get new acne because of hormonal changes. So the new pimples probably weren't caused by the lemon juice. I continued using the lemon juice and I didn't get any new pimples this far. If you have a small paper cut in your fingers then you have to be careful! It hurts a lot if lemon juice gets in it! I first wash my face with a cleanser in the morning. Having done that, I apply the lemon juice (freshly squeezed from a lemon) on my face. After 30 minutes I wash it off with luke warm water and then I apply it again and let it on for the whole day. I wash it off again in the evening before I go to bed. at night I use Sudocrem on my face, which makes my face feel very soft and does seem to help with active acne. I'll post an update when I've used it for a longer period |

| Pros | *Great results within a week or so, depending on your acne. * Removes acne marks with discoloration of skin. *Stops new spots from forming. |
|---|---|
| Cons | *Stings a little but you get use to it after a few goes. *Makes the skin a little rough but that can be cured with olive oil. |
| Bottom line | This is the best thing i have ever done for my face, serially people if you have acne, put a small amount of fresh lemon juice on your face before going to sleep, its the best thing you will ever do. If you develop rough skin then use olive oil in conjunction with lemon juice. |

| Pros | -When a unexpected pimple pops up, i just apply a bit of lemon juice to that area and by the time i wake up the next morning, the redness is gone and the pimple is tiny (allowing me to cover it up with mineral makeup) - Perfect if you wake up with a pimple day before big event |
|---|---|
| Cons | - Did not do much for the scarring or exsisting redness on my face - Can sting a little for about 2 minutes after application - Drys out Skin (Just need a decent moisturiser to apply after) |
| Bottom line | Gets rid of new pimples as soon as they arrive, like a spot cream or treatment only its natural and cheap. I've used a whole bunch of well known brand products on my face to get rid of pimples but lemon juice is the only one that actually gets rid of the pimple in 24 hours. Not good to use on sensitive skin. |

| Pros | smells nice fun to try used it consistantly for a week to try it out |
|---|---|
| Cons | ultimately its a sticky product okay fruit is fruit - it is not an acne medication. it is an acidic citrus fruit that will not 'cure' any of your acne. broke me out, inevitably. |
| Bottom line | try it out, it could prove effective for you but i dont know..my thoughts are ambiguous. i have tried absolutely everything on the market and from the dermatologists - i have spent a lot of money trying to find something effective! i will tell you what i swear by and that is tea tree facial wash from superdry its mild and has made my skin look great. try it out :) its like £1 |

| Pros | I have been using this for about a week. I should say that I've had moderate acne my entire life and was previously on prescriptions from the dermatologist, tried expensive brands like Clinique, Dermalogica and also drug store brands. Nothing could clear my acne completely, I always had a few new breakouts and old acne scares. This cleared my skin of all breakouts within two days and my old scars (purplish) are beginning to fade. All this after one week, I'm clear for the first time in my life |
|---|---|
| Cons | None for me...may sting if you have sensitive skin, but after all the treatments and prescription creams I've used my skin is pretty tough. |
| Bottom line | Use it! You won't be sorry, hands down the best treatment I've ever tried with the quickest, most visible results. Not to mention cheap... |
