Pros:

Minimizes and eventually gets rid of pimples, makes your skin soft and smooth, brightens it, cheap.

Cons:

STINGS like hell, sometimes itches.

I'm slapping myself right now. Why couldn't I have used this before? Lemon juice is really clearing up my acne, and its only been half a week. It might take a little bit more time, but I'm positive I'll be clear in one month!! One thing i hate though, is the stinging. It really hurts for a few minutes and itches, but it goes away, and i would pick that over acne any day! Ignoring the pain, lemon juice is a good choice.

Pros:

- Works really well on all types of acne, but especially body acne (chest, back, neck)
- Reduces redness
- Good Fragrance

Cons:

-Stings a good amount
-Sticky
-A bit of a hassle

Really worked for me. Almost instantaneous results. It did miracles for my chest and back acne, and cleared up the few zits I have on my face. Kind of a hassle to cut up a lemon and apply it, but its worth the results.

Pros:

makes skin glow!

Cons:

Stings!

I steam my face over a hot pot for 10 minutes (I place a towel over head to trap steam) then rub lemon all over. I keep it on for 10 minutes then wash off if ots morning or sleep in it all night if its evening. For the whole day I have skin that glows and is supple. Be careful when steaming. I've never been burned, but be aware!

Pros:

Cleared up red areas of my skin THE FIRST NIGHT I USED IT!! It really does get rid of it all.

Cons:

It burns and itches really bad, very hard to not touch your face for the 5 minutes following application.

It does work but I apply it after I use the Oil Cleaning Method so I'm not sure if my results are still typical but by reading the above reviews it looks like they are! :-)

Pros:

Reduced redness
Clear skin
Tightened pores

Cons:

The sting, but at least you know it is working!

I clean my face in the morning when I take a shower and again at night. Each time after, I use a q-tip and apply lemon juice to my face. I even leave it on. So far it really works great.

Pros:

Its natural,its cheap,it smells good,sucks up the excess oil but doesnt dry the skin out too much,adds glow to the skin too.

Cons:

stings and itches a bit the first few seconds of applying.

I have used it diluted after my weekly facial regiments and undiluted feshly squeezed on other days.I apply my usual moisturiser over it and it stops itching.My scars have faded so much,its really amazing.When u have a fresh pimple,just apply lemon juice on it after squeezing out the pus and blood and it doesnt leave a scar.I tried this and it works.Now i get maybe one pimple a month and its one of those small whiteheads unlike before when i used to have at least 3 pus pimples every week. My complexion has even out.I apply lemon juice mixed with olive oil on my body as well every night b4 i go to bed and my skin has improved too..no more pimples on my back and old scars fading.I dont need to shave as often because my skin is moisturised and very soft.Its the best thing that has happened to me since ive been plagued by acne the past 4 years.

Pros:

Lightens blemishes fast
Get's rid of blackheads
Smells nice

Cons:

Can burn and if you're not careful it can dry out skin way too fast!

I started lemon treatment about two weeks ago and noticed a difference on my blemishes by the second day. I let lemon juice sit on my skin for 20min. two times a day (morning & night), then rinsed. The only scary thing, I was peeling quite a bit, but it didn't hurt at all, it just looked weird. I only do it for about 3 days in a row then take a 5-7 day break. The lemon can be harsh on the skin! And I noticed that peeling is easier to come off when skin is wet. DO NOT pick at dry skin, if it flakes off that's good, but don't pull on it.
