Hi!

I've been using lemon juice on my skin for about 2 weeks. My skin looks nice overall, the tone looks more even and I'm pretty content with it. However since 2 days I started to get som small bumps under my nose filled with pus. They aren't like the pimples I normally get under my nose, because these bumps don't hurt and are very small.

I noticed before I started using lemon juice, I had a lot of pores with some kind of white stuff in it under my nose (clogged pores?) when I looked very closely. Could it be that the lemon juice is bringing that stuff to the surface/drawing it out and thereby cleaning my skin? Or is this some kind of breakout/allergic reaction?

Did anyone experience an initial breakout when using lemon juice on the skin? Will it subside and will my skin get better after it?

Should I discontinue using it? Or is this a normal, initial reaction that will go away?

Thanks in advance!

I would really not suggest that you continue using lemon juice,it is highly irritating!!!! It may work at the beginning but under the skin you're seriously damaging it...
