Bottom line: It works. I have tried almost everything (except Accutane) and spent years of frustration and tons of money on products that didn't work. What I do is wash and cut one lemon in half, and squeeze half of it into a glass of water. Mix and then drink, one in the morning and one at night. For a couple days I had nasty, black diarrhea (prob the toxins coming out). My skin is clearing! I also lightly apply the lemon juice on my face at night every 2-3 days. Scars are fading too

It's amazing! I read about this just yesterday and I decided to drink some lemon juice before going to bed. I put 2 Tablespoons of lemon juice into a mug with warm water and a Tablespoon of honey to make it sweeter. When I woke up this morning, my skin was clear. So happy!

I've had acne since... freshman year of high school.... now I am 22. I have comedonal acne (chin, forehead) with the occasional pimples on my cheeks. I squeeze haIf a lemon in a cup of warm water and it has worked wonders!! my cheeks are completely clear and has been for 3 weeks which has never happened before and the bumps on my forehead and chin have gone down significantly. But what did the trick was the acne.org regimen and it is amazing!!! BUT it makes my skin extremely dry and a little red. the Benzoyl Peroxide Treatment is what really flattened my comedonal acne. but I've used the regimen before and never with results like this I am 100% sure that it was because of the lemon. I feel so happy and energized in the morning after drinking it and am so happy that I am using natural products for my body.

good luck everyone!!!!! http://www.acne.org/lemon-juice-as-a-drink-reviews/76/page1.html#

I’ve been using lemon juice concentrate for about a week now. During the first few days, redness increased, acne stayed the same, and skin texture softened. Then I started to drink the lemon juice diluted in warm water instead of straight-up, and everything is improving. I microwave water in a coffee mug, add 3 tablespoons of lemon juice concentrate, and drink through a straw, first thing in the morning and after dinner. I also recommend eliminating dairy and soy if you haven’t already. Good luck and God bless us all!

I started drinking about 3 or so tablespoons a day, once in the morning and once at night. At first, it seemed like nothing was happening, although admittedly my skin was smoother. I stopped using it after five days or so and BAM! I wake up and I have minor pimples everywhere and 1-2 larger ones that I could tell where going to get a LOT bigger. Went back to drinking about 3 tablespoons (but just once) and applied some lemon juice topically, and they disappeared after a day or so. I really do like what it does but I had to quit because of the taste, it was absolutely awful and not worth it. I wasn't drinking fresh lemon juice though, it was bottled. I say if you don't mind how it tastes, please GO FOR IT! It really does work amazingly at reducing (and especially preventing) acne.

I love lemon juice, freshly squeezed and drink it all the time, added to tea, hot water, or cold water. It might help stave off colds but I've never seen a difference on my acne. Perhaps this is because my own acne appears to be hormonal in nature, but in my case, no results.

I am in my late 20s and never had acne growing up. About 5 years ago, I started getting really bad acne on one side of my face, gradually spreading to my forehead. I tried so many topical creams, gels - both prescription and over-the-counter. I quit eating meat, drank more water, none of this helped.

I finally started drinking one squeezed lemon in warm water every morning before work, so 5 times a week. This has almost completely cleared my acne in just on month. I still get occasional hormonal breakouts, but the lemon water has helped greatly.

I also use a cleansing pad every morning and Clinique Dramatically Different moisturizer. This, combined with the lemon juice, has done wonders for my skin.

The reason I think the lemon juice does so well is that it is cleansing of the liver and kidneys. Cleansing your liver is one of the best things you can do for your skin. If you want to go one giant step further, try Andreas Golitz Amazing Gall Bladder flush. I have yet to try this, but plan to very soon.

In nutrition I learned about how the liver processes so many hormones(major job) and toxins, not just it's normal job, but it also processes stuff left over from the colon and kidney. If the liver can't process it all, then it goes 2 your skin(2nd major excretion organ)!I learned all these excess hormones and toxins do come from what we consume and our environment(polution), this stuff is acidic to our body(meats, milk, junkfood), and lemons are the *ONLY* thing that can alkalize your body. This is important because your body doesn't function properly when it is acidic which means more toxins and hormones are accumulating. Cleansing your body daily is so important, this is what I do: Boil water(has to be distilled) and then I add green tea(antioxidants), a whole squeezed lemon(cleanses liver), a few shakes of cayenne pepper(cleanses the intestines), and two spoonfuls of local honey(has local microbial agents). I drink this every morning and wait thirty minutes so my body can cleanse itself. This doesn't just help with acne, it helps with so much stuff I can't even list it all. To further this cleansing of course drink water, but make sure to do it after an hour of eating so your stomach juices can properly digest your food(drinking with meals dilutes stomach acids). Then after an hour of drinking water eat a fruit high in vit c(major antioxidant cleanser) like kiwi( its vit c content is higher than an orange) or an orange. Snacking on vit c fruits throughout the day will further help keep your body cleansed. It's important to snack on them between meals so your body has a while to absorb nutrients before cleansing. Of course try to avoid foods that make you breakout because it's a sign your body doesn't do such a great job at digesting those foods, these are mainly foods that spike your insulin. Insulin is the master hormone so if it spikes you can bet your testerone hormones are spiking too(more acne). Also make sure to consume protein daily, it's vital to

I`ll begin by saying that I suffered from acne for a very long time and after years of abusing my skin with over the counter products etc, I ended up with a more oily, sensitive, red, acne prone skin so I decided to do my own research and figure out a natural solution. So here it is...First, I cleanse my skin with extra virgin olive oil (cold pressed) mixed with salt. This is the scrub I use once a day in the morning, Next, If I`m at home during the day I put on a mask which is taking a raw potato (russet potato) and cut thin slices and smear all that good stuff on my face (yes even underneath your eyes..u can see whatever lines u have dissapear) and leave it for at least an hour, you will feel the tightness and watch your acne scars disapear with regular use. The potatoes contain vitamin C so its good for all things including brightening your skin, reducing wrinkles, heals acne scars and most of all it clears ur skin. if u already have pimples it shrinks them. Also smearing a banana on ur face is beneficial for both wrinkles and acne. (sorry off track)So after I rinse my face with warm water I take a cotton pad and dab some rose water and smear it on my skin (also underneath ur eyes) then add 2 drops of jojoba oil mixed with 2 drops of avocado oil in the palm of my hands and rub so both oils get mixed and apply. The first few times I done this my skin was left a bit shiny and oily looking but after a week or so I noticed the shine was reduced and my skin started to become even softer and had less breakouts.At night I cleanse my skin with just the olive oil then apply the tea tree oil wait a few min then apply the jojoba and avocado oil. As for the lemon water it works great, keeps your skin clear, prevents breakouts also, the oilyness is reduced,I saw the results almost immedately. for 700 ml i squeeze half a fresh lemon and add a bit honey to it forsome flavor aside from that I also take a teaspoon of omega 3 fatty fish oil daily, ur skin will improve dramatically

I drank a cup of lemon juice straight, everyday, for about 3 months.

It noticably improved my acne. Prior to this, I was on Doryx, but I decided to stop because it was harming my liver. The lemon juice worked not only as good as doryx, but better.

But alas, I am a singer, and I noticed I couldn't hit high notes after drinking this stuff. So I cut back to a cup twice per week, My skin still looks pretty good.

I did quit for a while, and my skin went bad again, so I began using it again, and it went back to being clear.
