Pros It cleared up my skin and lighten my dark acne scars i've had for over 14 years. It worked very fast.(african american skin/ honey brown complexion)
Cons It stings for a few sec's, and may itch for a sec; but will quickly stop.
Bottom line I wash my face in the shower in the morning and at night. I then put the lemon juice on my face after my shower , because the steam from the shower opens your pores.It does work, very well. I love it!

Pros clears acne first use
gives skin a glow
nice scent
Cons burns a bit the first 1-2 min
Bottom line i used this last night and i added a bit of asprin to it so it would work better. i also added an egg and 1/2 of a lemon, and left it on for 3 hours. it left just a bit of pimples left, but im clearing those up :)

PLUS it was free! my mom has 5 lemon trees growing everywhere and the lemons are gigantic

Pros Minimizes and eventually gets rid of pimples, makes your skin soft and smooth, brightens it, cheap.
Cons STINGS like hell, sometimes itches.
Bottom line I'm slapping myself right now. Why couldn't I have used this before? Lemon juice is really clearing up my acne, and its only been half a week. It might take a little bit more time, but I'm positive I'll be clear in one month!! One thing i hate though, is the stinging. It really hurts for a few minutes and itches, but it goes away, and i would pick that over acne any day! Ignoring the pain, lemon juice is a good choice.

Pros - Works really well on all types of acne, but especially body acne (chest, back, neck)
- Reduces redness
- Good Fragrance
Cons -Stings a good amount
-Sticky
-A bit of a hassle
Bottom line Really worked for me. Almost instantaneous results. It did miracles for my chest and back acne, and cleared up the few zits I have on my face. Kind of a hassle to cut up a lemon and apply it, but its worth the results.

Pros Cheap and cheerful, really seems to work. How did I not know about this before?! My whole face looks better
Cons Hard to travel with (weird taking a lemon with your overnight clothes)
Can sting like a b*tch
Bottom line Make sure you use fresh lemon, not the bottled stuff. I tried that for a while but it made my skin very sticky and itchy and didn't do much. I use about 1/10th of a lemon, squeezed onto a cotton pad, then I wipe it over my clean face before bedtime. I use a normal oil free moisturiser in the morning because too much lemon makes you face dry.
Price paid $0.40

Pros Made my skin clear up almost completely, brightens and evens skin tone, fades scars
Cons Makes your face feel sticky, Stings a bit
Bottom line This stuff is amazing. I was on Accutane for six months, and my skin was mostly clear, but I had a lot of scars left over. After a while, my acne started to come back. I'd read about using lemon juice on here, so I started putting lemon juice on a cotton ball and applying it to my entire face. You could literally see results in days. The pimples I had disappeared, and my skin seemed a lot brighter and more even. I've been using it for a month now, and I now I can actually feel confident leaving the house without foundation, something I never would have been able to do before! Definitely give this one a try. It's cheap and you have nothing to lose. Great stuff, I'd recommend it to anyone.

Pros it works so well, and practically immediately! and my lips taste like lemons :)
Cons stings a decent bit at first, kinda itchy, and sticky
Bottom line works well, and i cut the lemon in half, then into fourths, and used only one of those fourths for one use, so the tiny amount of money you spend goes a long way. i have such sensitive skin to man-made products for skin care, they always make it work. it seems that more natural remedies (like this) work the best- because i really know what is going onto my face ;)
Price paid $0.50
