Pros:

GREAT for pimples, works so fast and effective, reduces redness, brighter ur skin, and the bottow line is.. IT WORKS WONDER!!! i love this fruit

Cons:

none, cause i havent try to apply it directly onto my face..

Ok.. now that i've been trying this "magical fruit" for 1 week, i thought of posting the results here.. I was so stressed out with my pimples all over my face.. not only pimples but i got alot of scars as well.. it really reduces my self confidence, and i really hate that.. after using this lemon juice (I drink it NOT applying it on my face) for 1 week, i realised that my face is SO MUCH brighter.. Even my friends told me that.. and my sister said my face is so much clearer now (the pimples are goin away) I wonder how such a lemon could do much on acne, and now i know that it detoxify the toxin on ur body, and it cleanses ur kidney.. (there is definitely relationship between clean kidney, and great skin) so yeah.. it really works for me.. Now, i'm goin to try to apply it onto my face (although im a little bit scared cause i thought it would make my skin dry and causes more redness on my face).. anyway, i'll keep u guys updated..

Pros:

IT WORKSSSSS MANNNNN DNOT EVEN HESITATE to not use it omg! It made me so much happier! i only used it on for 20 min for the first time today and BAMMM the size of all my pimples decreased drastically wooooooo it feels great to

Cons:

it stings at first but heyy who cares about that!

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

Pros:

Within two days all my zits were half as swollen as they were before, and some of them completely went away. This stuff is the best thing I have tried on my skin yet.

Cons:

It kinda makes my skin a little itchy but it's completely worth the results.

It's great, and I can save so much money now because I don't need any of the other products I used to buy all the time. I like to apply the lemon juice with a cotton ball and rub it on my face, let it dry, and then since it leaves a sticky residue I take a wet rag and leave it on my face for a minute after I've done the lemon juice.

Pros:

I love using lemon juice. I've tried everything for my acne. And my acne is moderate, sometimes severe. I dip my face in hot water for 100 seconds. AND AFTER I WASH GENTLY WITH WATER ONLY AND A WASHCLOTH. It fades scars 2. Theres no more acne.

Cons:

there really is no cons compared to all the other stuff I've tried to get rid of my acne.

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.

well, when using an acidic substance you should always mix it with something like water, olive oil, or honey to even it out. It's not your fault that you didn't know. That's the reason why it was so harsh on your face because you just used lemon.

Simply did not work.
I tried it with sugar and honey and it only worsened.

Sugar feeds to the bacteria on your face and can make acne worse. And because of the jagged uneven ways the sugar is shaped, it can be bad for the layer of your skin and cause more acne. If you decide to use lemon on your face, dilute it with water so it isn't as harsh on your face because your skin needs to have a certain ph balance or it can break out from lemon as well. For a while I was only using water to wash my face and I stopped using makeup unless it was a special day/night and it has cleared up a lot but now I'm trying to speed up the healing process from my old acne. I have hyperpigmentation and a lot of the things out there in store has a lot of bad ingredients in it even if it says noncomedogenic. So lemon has been my go to. And if I do have a pimple, I don't mess with it until it has a white head. Then I like it with the tiniest sewing needle and pull the skin outward. And there are foods that can contribute to acne as well. Dairy, sugars, and greasy foods.

Pretty Good!
I think it's good, but it can sting a little if you use one lemon directly on your skin. Mix one egg white with about half a teaspoon lemon juice and apply is to your face as a mask. For easier application, wet your face first. Leave it on until it dries ( 15 - 20 mins ) or overnight for better result. When it tightens, try not to move your face to much since it creates wrinkles in the mask! Good luck!❤️

Pros:

Helps clear acne scars

Cons:

Doesn't really help prevent new ones

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

Pros:

-Stops new breakouts
-Cleans out the pus

Cons:

-Doesn't totally get rid o' acne
-Stings
-Dries out skin

Nothing worked for me, until I used this and honey. The lemon stung and dried out my sking, but it cleaned out some of my pores and breakouts became less frequent when I used it. I would recommend trying it, but the lemon juice doesn't totally get rid of acne.

cheap and easy

Cons:

makes skin itchy when it first goes on

I have been breaking out on my chest and back thanks to a basketball league, and i started using this 3 nights ago, i already notice improvements! It becomes really itchy when it goes on my skin, but it stops after about 3-4 minutes. this has worked better than all of the prescription medicines i have tried! great solution!
