Lemon Juice (applied topically)

i have been using this for about a week or two. At first I was using this everyday, but then it was making me get big cyst bumps on my face. So now I use it every other day or every 2 days. It works great, and i guarantee you'll see results after first use. I rarely get pimples like black heads and stuff but i did get the underground bumps, but this has made a huge difference in my skin.

I have clear skin on most of my face with the exception of my forehead. I have over 10 pimples/scars on my forehead alone! I tried mederma, toothpaste, you name it, none of it has worked. So someone told me about using lemons as an astrigent. I decided to give it a try, I've only used this for 2 nights so far and it does to an extent lighten scars but i think it should take a week or two for more visible changes. I will continue to use it as a spot treatment on my bumps and scars. I leave it on overnight and apply it with a cutip. I did get 1 new pimple however in the last 2 nights so i dont know if it was the lemon that caused it or just my skin getting more pimples on it own. Nevertheless if you have scars and blemishes putting some juice on them is worth a shot. I will come back with an update in about a week.

It works great! I had this huge pimple on my forehead a couple days ago and it was red after I popped it. I looked on this site and found a couple of home remedies and decided the lemon was the best. The results were fantastic! The huge red pimple that was on my forehead dried up and all my blemishes are subtly fading. I very happy with the results!

i have tried all the lotions, potions and pills and finally after 10 years of having acne i have decided to go the organic route! im using oatmeal as a cleanser, oatmeal and honey mask and lemon juice in the mornings! its so easy and cheap!! just a cost of a lemon a week! i just squeeze lemon juice on a cotton wool pad and wipe it over my face and hold it on my spots. i leave it for 10 mins then i wash my face. i onky been using it for 2 days but im sure today they seem a bit clearer! i will write again in a months time but its worth a try!!

Works well and it's cheap. I didn't use a fresh lemon. I used the ones packaged in a container you know? It seemed to work just as well. I'll probably go try a regular lemon as well. It's worth a shot.

I added lemon juice to my routine - it is the only thing I changed so I know it is what is giving me results. I have never had acne all over - just one or two really large painful bumps under the skin, new ones once or twice a week which take forever to heal. Since I have started using this - NO NEW BUMPS! And my face feels really soft and clean. I use it only at night diluted with water and let it dry - then apply 2.5% BP. I use St. Ives scrub AM/PM, and during the day AHA (Walgreens) with Neutrogena tinted moisturizer/sunscreen over it. I tried ACV also which seemed to be working - but lemon juice smells SO much better.

highly recommend!!!first day so not sure if all my scars will go away but it seem to tighten my skin and reduce noticeable pores!!!

I mix a teaspoon of the fresh juice with a little raw honey so there is NO stinging whatsoever, plus the honey helps to soften my skin. I massage this on after I wash my face at night and then rinse off followed by aloe. It's worth the try but give it some time to see the difference.

better skin

I just cut a fresh lemon in half, and made circles on face squeezing lemon juiceon face. My skin looks great, and my pores are way smaller. what can i say I'm acne free.
