Pros:

Cheap and cheerful, really seems to work. How did I not know about this before?! My whole face looks better

Cons:

Hard to travel with (weird taking a lemon with your overnight clothes)
Can sting like a b*tch

Make sure you use fresh lemon, not the bottled stuff. I tried that for a while but it made my skin very sticky and itchy and didn't do much. I use about 1/10th of a lemon, squeezed onto a cotton pad, then I wipe it over my clean face before bedtime. I use a normal oil free moisturiser in the morning because too much lemon makes you face dry.

Pros:

cheap, natural

Cons:

stingy, itchy feeling but if you use alittle aloe vera gel with it then it stops this feeling

Lemon is great but the most fabulous thing is carrot juice. It is the primary veg for the skin, you won't go orange don't worry and if you do then you are drinking far too much of it. 6oz a day is enough. It is full of vit A which people with skin disorders are usually deficient in. I can not stress to you how great it is. If you have acne or any skin problem give carrots a chance, you will remember reading this forever! i promise you!

Pros:

really reduces pustuals as well as comedomes. makes hyperpigmentation significantly less red.

Cons:

stings like a little boy whipping you with a towel!

I developed acne at age 18 mainly due to a hormonal inbalance. im on the pill and it hasnt shown amazing results. i went vegan about 11 months ago and can say that that made a huge impact on helping me skin. i also switched to natural face washes. This helped clear my skin at least 60%. the problem is i am a HUGE picker so i always have terrible scars and red marks even after the pimple is gone. this makes me look like i have way more zits than i do. I read about lemon juice on a holistic website and tried it. it really helps hyperpigmentation go away and any zits i had are gone. I am coupling topical use with drinking warm lemon water everyday. I KNOW that it is a combination that it working because the results werent as amazing until i started drinking the stuff. You must clean ure self on the inside as well as the outside. stings like heck, but totally worth it. USE ORGANIC LEMONS!!!!!!!(so what if they are more expensive, u dont want cancer on top of acne)

Pros:

I have a tree in the backyard and seems to be just as effective if not better than when I was applying 2.5% BP. My question is, does it matter what kind of lemons they are? I'm using Meyer.

Cons:

None

It's only been about 5 days though. It feels like it's working, the stinging sensation is a feedback mechanism though not really irritating. Overall, skin feels better and I don't have to worry now about bleaching my shirt collars and everything else when I was using BP. If you're in the Bay Area (Oakland, CA) hit me up if you want some lemons. I'm a member, you can reach me under Chunkmunk.

Pros:

It is cheap, and effective. Smells good, has many benifits if taken orally aswell, apart from helping cure acne.

Cons:

A slight sting might ensue for afew minutes after application. No big deal!

It has cleared up my blemishes very well, evened out my overall skin tone and i have less zits appearing. Actually, none at all to be precise! It also shrinks my pores and gives my skin a healthy shine! Drink abit of lemon juice diluted with water every morning, half an hour before breakfast, and at night before bed for the best results! Id reccommend this to anybody. Applied topically : just dab a cotton bud in freshly squeezed lemon juice and spread it all over your face. And feel the burn baby! Now, repeat everyday and watch the amazing results you get. Also, notice the pores of the lemon skin, and how similar they are to human pores. Strange coincidence, ey?
