Cons:
For me it only hurts for that first few secs. (Maybe I have a thick skin??? Haha.)
This is only my second time using..haven't seen any visible results on clearing skin or scars..Will continue using it since i'm not affected by the "stings" of lemon juice. Haha.

Pros:
i do not have pimples now, just brown spots. pretty much, i used it for a week and my scars were ALMOST gone.i used it together with my brother, and his scars are gone so i think it does works. keep out of sunlight while using this, or use sunblock
Cons:
i'm not sure but it seems like after a week the scars were back, maybe it's turning from brown to red or cause i went out into the sun without sunblock (darn), i'll keep my fingers crossed.
it works, but of course you'll need patience. do not leave it overnight though, it doesn't do much after the stinging sensation's gone. ( i studied about acids and the stinging sensation's due to the H+ ions in lemon that's reacting with your face, and because their weak acids they have few H+ ions. so after the stinging sensation, the acid in there is pretty much used up) i would recommend using moisturiser before bed, my skin feels smooth when i do that(: and for oily skin it works cause it regulates the oil production.

Pros:
MIRACULOUSLY clears pores!
Cons:
Stings for a bit.
Every night, I squeeze a bit of lemon and apply it with a cotton earbud thing onto my nose, where I get those nasty blackheads. I leave it on for the night. The next morning, it's a miracle, literally! Most of my pores are clear, and the icky blackness is gone. Lemons really do work....even BP doesn't work so well. Getting lemons is bit of a bother, but I squeeze heaps in one week and then just leave it in the fridge.

I suffer with adult acne.I have gone to the dermetologist,tried different products from the store,but truthfully nothing has worked for me like the juice of a lemon DILUTED with fresh water.I makes my skin glow and gives it a youthful apperance.I love when I gather with my friends and they say to me,"your skin looks good".But I must say,it does take consistency and if you stop the usage your marks may reappear...I have experienced this also.

Works on scars/pigmentation
I have been using lemon for a while now and tested it on my skin for a very long time on and off. When you first apply it it can sting or irritate your skin but once your skins used to it it's fine. From my point of view I think it only works on scars and pigmented skin when I have used to on fresh acne spots it just really didn't do anything for me.

Lemons
Pros:
Lightens scars fast
Cheap
Tightens up your skin.
Cons:
Stings
Can dry up your skin
It's been exactly one month since I tried using this. I can say that it really is effective when it comes to scars as they lighten way faster than normal (when you don't put anything at all and just leave it as it is). It prevents blackheads from getting worse. It also dries up my pimples at times but I'm not quite sure if it really can prevent pimples and blackheads from forming or coming back. However, it can dry your skin up but that's pretty easy to manage. Overall, I'm happy because it tightens up my skin and heals scars fast.

Pros:
Easily available
Very cheap
Natural
Helps faded hyperpigmentation
Cons:
Stings a little upon application
Because it is so difficult to precisely pinpoint what causes acne, it is also very difficult to prove what can treat it. Therefore, I would love to say that applying a mixture of undiluted lemon juice, ginger and tea tree oil every night for 3 months has almost completely cleared my acne, but I can't. All I can say is that my skin is better since I've been using this mixture, although other factors, such as stress or diet may have helped the improvement of my skin. I would certainly recommend using lemon juice, it's cheap and it works well to fade the scars left behind. A little tip: Avoid going out in the sun with lemon juice on your face. Sun + acid = no!

Pros:
Clears acne and reduces redness ALMOST overnight
Not drying
Cheap & Effective
Cons:
Stings
I've tried creams and home remedies and antibiotics and cleansers of all kinds. One day years ago I was walking in the mall and woman came up to me and said "lemon juice." I said "huh"? and she said "for your face..lemon juice."
I never tried it..not for years. Then one day I figured I'd give it a shot. It works nearly overnight. The redness and inflammation is noticeably reduced. It's great.
It does sting a tad for less than a minute after application, but totally worth it in my book. It also didn't dry out my skin which was another plus. :)
