Cons:
Stings, dries your skin completely, gave me a huge breakout.
I used it twice a day for almost a week I think, but then I started to get a huge break out, despite having only had mild acne for several years. I think it may be because I didn't use a moisturiser, and so my skin dried out completely. Either way it was horrible, and I immediately stopped using lemon juice. However, now another week has passed, and my break out is practically gone again (used a lot of moisturiser!) - and my scars (small ones) seem to actually have improved significantly (they're still slightly red though, but it slowly disappears)! So I'm gonna start using it again, albeit a lot less, AND use a moisturiser.
Bottom line is it may help you, but you should definitely USE IT WITH CARE.

Pros:
- Brightens complexion
Cons:
- Stings!
I tried this for my acne but it didn't seem to work very much; it left my skin with a yellow-ish hue even after I washed it off (and I'm Asian). It stung even though I diluted it and it made my face kinda red when I left it on. I wouldn't recommend leaving this on your face for longer than 15 minutes, especially if your skin is dry/sensitive. Lemon Juice is however great for lightening hair. Just squeeze lemon juice onto a plate/cup, dilute a little bit, and pour onto your hair. If your hair is very moisturized and hasn't ever been color-treated/excessively heat treated, I think it's safe to squeeze the lemon straight onto your hair. Leave it on until it fully dries or for a couple hours and wash out. Not recommended if you have dry hair, but if your hair is moisturized it should be fine. Leaves your hair with a lovely sun-kissed look :)

Pros:
-Worked wonderfully for my scars with only one night of treatment
-Cheap
-Easy to use
-Didn't make my face red at all, actually reduced it (I'm very fair skinned, prone to redness, and rather sensitive to chemicals. Darn Irish skin.)
-Smells good!
Cons:
-Itched a little on active acne, didn't notice stinging or pain like others said.
I'm going to keep using this, my acne got a lot worse when the weather turned warm and this seems to really have helped it after one day of use! I squeezed juice out of the lemon into a glass bowl and used cotton to apply it to all my problem areas, then washed it off after 20 minutes. Pulled the redness right out of my skin and acne. I spot applied it to some scars that were really annoying me and left it overnight. Those scars are GONE. One of the really nasty ones looks like it needs another treatment, but it definitely got smaller and less red.
I would recommend it to anyone (as long as they don't have some weird lemon allergy) it's worth a try, it's cheap, and natural. What have you got to lose?
(I also recommend drinking Fruit20's lemon flavored water, I realized my acne got even worse because I was drinking less of that specific type of water during my Spring Break. Check out "Lemon Juice (as a drink) on here for more info on that)

Reduce oil production

Gives a healthy glow
Cons:
It is sticky
It doesnt burn that much
Ive been using this for 3 days and it is helping to control my oily skin and it makes my face look healthy but I dont see a great improvement on a big pustule that I have. I will continue to use lemon juice to see if my acne improves.

Pros:
shrinks the size of pimples, but doesnt completely heal them. it isnt drying at all if you have oily skin, and it works to lighten scars
Cons:
It burns a tad in the beginning, but its nothing bad.
I reduced the size and redness of pimples, but it didnt prevent them or heal them all the way. My scars went away in about a week and a half.

Pros:
made my pimple smaller
Cons:
didnt really get rid of acne on my face though
i applied this all over my face one night and the next morning i noticed that my pimple on my cheek had become smaller and wasn't so red. other than that there were no big changes. make sure when u apply this it is pure lemon juice and nothing else (no perservatives etc)
Pros:
The smell, actually improves minor scars.
