| Pros: | It works fine.. i havent really used it long enough to get results yet but i have noticed that my face isnt as oily! |
| Cons: | none yet. it doesnt really even sting for me! |
| Bottom Line: | well ive been using GARLIC for my acne. it works wonders! but it DOES dry out the face alot.. and i go through like a whole thing of garlic in ONE WEEK. too much! plus the smell.. ew! but hey it DID work so some of you should try it!
i heard about the lemon thing a couple weeks ago
i was REALLLLLY hesitant to try it. i mean its basically acid.. wont that hurt your face?
i tried it 2 days ago
and the next morning after i used it, my face felt refreshed and the smaller pimples were barely even there!
the bigger ones reduced in swelling.. but no miracle or anyhting just yet
i am going to continue using it
and i am gunna start drinking lemon juice as well ill keep you posted on how it works! wish me luck! |

| Pros: | I have a tree in the backyard and seems to be just as effective if not better than when I was applying 2.5% BP. My question is, does it matter what kind of lemons they are? I'm using Meyer. |
| Cons: | None |
| Bottom Line: | It's only been about 5 days though. It feels like it's working, the stinging sensation is a feedback mechanism though not really irritating. Overall, skin feels better and I don't have to worry now about bleaching my shirt collars and everything else when I was using BP. If you're in the Bay Area (Oakland, CA) hit me up if you want some lemons. I'm a member, you can reach me under Chunkmunk. |

| Pros: | IT WORKSSSSS MANNNNN DNOT EVEN HESITATE to not use it omg! It made me so much happier! i only used it on for 20 min for the first time today and BAMMM the size of all my pimples decreased drastically wooooooo it feels great to |
| Cons: | it stings at first but heyy who cares about that! |
| Bottom Line: | this was my first time using it and i see the effect already god damn! anyway i tried proactive and stuff guys, all u need is lemon dont use anything else because products that doctors sell, sure will decrease ur acne but i guarantee if the prodcut works the pimples will come back because doctors want money, they want to use treatments and not cures. I find the Lemon as a cure so everyone out there with acne use LEMONSSSSS |

| Pros: | MIRACULOUSLY clears pores! |
| Cons: | Stings for a bit. |
| Bottom Line: | Every night, I squeeze a bit of lemon and apply it with a cotton earbud thing onto my nose, where I get those nasty blackheads. I leave it on for the night.
The next morning, it's a miracle, literally! Most of my pores are clear, and the icky blackness is gone. Lemons really do work....even BP doesn't work so well.
Getting lemons is bit of a bother, but I squeeze heaps in one week and then just leave it in the fridge. |

| Pros: | YOU HAVE NO IDEA! I actually use Aroma Crystal Therapy Ltd's Zit Zapper roll-on which has more than just lemon juice its got a bunch of essential oils, but i couldnt figure out where to put it. ITS AMAZING |
| Cons: | tingles... if you dont like tingling |
| Bottom Line: | OKay so I was looking up reviews for spot treatments because i have this HUGE pimple that hurts soooo bad and is way underneath my skin and now scabbed because i cant help but rub it and then i pick at the scab. So now I have a monster growing on my forehead and Im looking up spot treatments.
I remembered I had this little roll-on in my purse that I bought at the health food store but never really gave a chance. So while I sit here I rub and rub and rub it all over, even just holding it there. It tingles which felt great. Eventually I decided to touch the pimple again and what did I realise? Its BARELY there. OF course its still there but just slightly raised and no longer painful. Try to see if you can buy it online its only 10 bucks and I cant believe what it just did. |

| Pros: | :) |
| Cons: | :( |
| Bottom Line: | Clears the skin, eliminates scar tissues over time, and is natural. :)
Just burns a bit...(more like a lot) But worth the results. |

| Pros: | It works. |
| Cons: | none. |
| Bottom Line: | I've tried EVERYTHING to make my face better. Ive tried proactiv, differn, retin-A, many pills, and over the counter products. Ive spend tons of money on products that didnt work. After using the lemon every morning and night, it helped clear up my face. My regime is using the Murad facewash and using a q- tip on the actual pimples. This really works, and I feel like I shouldnt be embarrassed of my face anymore. |
