redeyesblue 0 Share Posted October 25, 2005 I understand that Lemons are a natural bleach and are included in quite a few masks on these forums. My sister also used lemons to Bleach her hair in High School when bleach products were banned, so I know first hand the power of the Lemon. My question is - will it really have the same effect on the skin ?. I am thinking of buying a bag of lemons and cutting them in half and just holding them onto my cheeks while watching TV and such. Does this sound like a reasonable tactic to fight the redness ?redeyesblue Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Guest james11 Share Posted October 25, 2005 You'd be better off buying a jumbo sized lemon, cutting it in half and sticking your face right in it. If you want to watch TV, just cut out some eye holes! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

presrox 0 Share Posted October 27, 2005 wait so does this work? i really want pale pale skin so i'd apply to my whole face! are lemons really a form of bleach? has anyone had success with this? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
redeyesblue 0 Author Share Posted October 27, 2005 my whole face is quite red so i've just been putting it all overpresrox, it does bleach but it will take some time i think for it to be noticable, it's good for your skin anyway so just make it part of your daily routine and see how it looks down the track, Quote Link to post Share on other sites

redeyesblue 0 Author Share Posted October 28, 2005 are you sure theres juice comming out of the lemon when you put it on ?, try putting the lemon in the microwave for 10 seconds and then applying+squeezing a little bit.maybe you just have a high tolerance . Quote Link to post Share on other sites

jjproof0364 0 Share Posted October 30, 2005 in my opinion lemon doesnt do much. It helps sorta to fade red marks, but thats all. Apply it 1 a day for like 20 mins. I saw a bit of results in less than a week. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
