Pros:smells great, feels great, and it is all natural [if you have a tree outside like me, then its free!]
Cons:stings for the first minute or so
Bottom Line:your face feels refreshed without the gunky buildup many products leave. My advice, put it on before a night out and don't wear makeup: it gives your face a glow and reduces any pimples or red marks... and you don't have to worry about falling asleep with makeup on!
Recommended:Yes

Pros:I love the lemon!!! Smells great, affordable, refreshing, and actually works....
Cons:The pulp on my skin....kind of annoying...And it stings initially...But no pain no gain.
Bottom Line:The lemon has faded the darks spots on my skin from previous ance. I love to mix red clay with apple cidar vinegar, and apply topically to spots over night to get rid of any pimples.This has really worked for me. The lemon juice even out my complexion, and has reduced the amount of blackeahds on my face. DRINK DISTILLED WATER>....this has done wonders for my skin, energy, health....ect.....a gallon day keeps te pimples away, and keeps ya regualr...lol:)....Truthfully.
LOve it!

Pros:This is one aspect of the whole regimine I have adopted in the last couple of months that actually works and works well. It is inexpensive compared to topical perscription topicals and it is so simple.
Cons:Sometimes it feels a little itchy until I apply the Jojoba and cetaphil mixture on top.
Bottom Line:Lemon juice applied directly to my face ? It seemed silly at first, but haven't I tried about everything over the years ? Yes. You know, it is easy, smells nice, and I like the way it tones my skin.
Recommended:Yes

Pros:Great stuff! Dissolves blackheads and big, clogged
pores fast!
Cons:Only that you have to use natural lemons, which is a little inconvenient but not that bad
Bottom Line:Once a night, I squeeze out some juice from a lemon and rub it on my nose and certain parts of my cheeks. It is the only thing that works on blackheads! I had those big pores full of gross clogs, but this has dissolved 70% of them in one week! Try it. It might work for you
Recommended:Yes

Pros:None!
Cons:Stings and has no affect!
Bottom Line:I tried this method with honey and it had no affect what so ever! My scarring on my face was bad and after putting on the lemon and honey, they faded but after an hour or so they were back! This was not the only method i have used which does not work. i have used 'Bio oil' also which had the same outcome and this cost alot more (from £8.95).

However, I researched some more and found that vitamin e is supposed to help fading. IT WORKS!
I have been using a vitamin e cleansing lotion (79p, Boots), a vitamin e toner (79p, Boots) and a vitamin e moisturiser (79p, Boots or 'Vitamin e creme', Holland and Barratt which costs £2.49 but has better affects) twice a day in that order for about a month and the scars are nearly gone (be persistant). Also, for my acne I apply 'Germaline Antiseptic cream' (£2.79, Boots) freely when ever I can, along with 2 tablets of 'HRI clear complexion' (£3.90, Boots) everyday.

IT WORKS PERFECTLY. It is more expensive. But is twice as affective
Recommended:No

Pros:affordable
Cons:none so far
Bottom Line:I just started applying lemon juice to my face. I mix it with evaporated cane juice as an exfoliant. I hope this works. I am also drinking one lemon a day mixed with hot water. I guess it's worth a shot since there are so many good reviews I am reading.
