Lemon Juice (applied topically)

Be patient, for the first couple weeks my face broke out even more but this is normal for natural remedies. Symptoms often get worse before getting better. I have used lemon for almost a month now and I can honestly say this works better than any other bullsh*t cream, cleanser, or pill I have ever used. Most dermatologists will not prescribe lemon to their patients because there is no money in lemons and that would upset their friends in the pharmaceutical industry. I use a slice of lemon at night and scrub it directly and gently on my face. I does sting a little for a few minutes but its not a big deal. I guess some other people wash the lemon juice off but I just leave it on all night. I would also suggest washing your face prior to applying the lemon, ideally with an all natural aloe vera soap bar, without fragrance or dye. I also use the aloe vera soap in the morning to wash my face.

i put fresh queezed lemon juice into a cup and replace it about every 4 days. i soak a cotton ball in it and then apply it to my face, AFTER washing my face with my normal cleanser. i leave it on for about 10 minutes morning and night, and then rinse it off with COLD water. day 1- makes acne look worse, a couple more pimples form. day2- same as day one, except old ones are going away. day 3- pimples are drieing up. day 4- most pimples are gone and scars look less visible. day 5- skin is glowing and almost all acne is gone. i relly recommend this(:

Lemon is natural and free of nasty chemicals! Its the BEST!!

this was my first time using it and i see the effect already god damn! anyway i tried proactive and stuff guys, all u need is lemon dont use anything else because products that doctors sell, sure will decrease ur acne but i guarantee if the prodcut works the pimples will come back because doctors want money, they want to use treatments and not cures. I find the Lemon as a cure so everyone out there with acne use LEMONSSSSS

Just do the hot water dip, after wash with a washcloth, and then dip again in cold water to close the pores. after that get a cotton pad and dip it into fresh squeezed lemon juice and apply it to your face. And I almost guarantee it will clear up your face. I don't even break out anymore. Maybe 1 pimple a month and it goes away fast with the juice.

Apply every night right after washing my face. Very helpful in getting rid of acne scars and downsizing some redness.

been doing this for 2 days and got hit on for the first time in like a year! just thought i had to post after that haha. I cut a slice off and rub my face gentally for about 3 min then rinse off after 15 min.

I have just tried this for the first time, and the inital burning I experienced was so excrutiating I was afraid my face was going to explode in an allergic reaction. Just as I filled the palm of my hand with face wash, the pain subsided. The irritation for me was extreme, maybe because I use very mild products and my skin is not used to the power of the lemon, but I truly believe everyones skin is different. I'm glad I have given this a chance. This is much better than any of those brands neutrogena, clearisil, clean and clear etc. :)

I have only a few pimples around my nose and a a couple on my forehead. My skin has recently been quite red from the colder temperature and a new wash I picked up. My forehead has never broken out before until I used the wash I got but the lemon juice got rid of the pimples completely overnight and the redness is slightly down. The zits around my nose are almost faded. I also recommend taking a "shot" of lemon juice or apple cider vinegar before bed each night. It helps fight acne before it starts

Okay, well I'm 16 and I have had acne since I was about 10. I remember getting a pimple smack dab in the middle of my forehead and having my mom pop it for me. I figured that it wasn't a big deal, and it truly wasn't.. until a couple of years later. Suddenly the amount of acne started to increase.. more and more pimples showed up on my forehead, then they spread to my cheeks, chin, and temples. I can't count how many times I've cried over acne. I was a pimple popper, which resulted in the red marks. I still lament the fact that I popped my pimples. Acne is a b*tch. I have spent so much $$ on it and it is the absolute worst. I finally went to a derm. and was prescribed some oral antibiotics and a topical lotion (klaron). It's only been the first month, so I haven't seen any drastic changes. However, with the lemons, I have been applying the juice onto my face for the past 2 nights. My skin's texture has improved, I have seen small improvements but I'm hopeful, since it's only been 2 nig
