Cons:
-made me red all over
-irritated my acne and gave me more
-stung like crazy!
-smells bad, and can get on a lot of your stuff!
this did not work at all for me! it stung when you put it on, it irritated me, making my skin super red and giving me more breakouts! this works for some people, just not for me.

Pros:
cheap, helps lighten hyperpigmentation scars slightly
Cons:
BREAK OUT! .. very drying/sticky
I used this for about a week, and broke out pretty bad which left scars for months! If you're going to use this, DONT use it everyday, and make sure you dilute it with water. Use with care and read your skins reaction.

Pros:
- Brightens complexion
Cons:
- Stings!
I tried this for my acne but it didn't seem to work very much; it left my skin with a yellow-ish hue even after I washed it off (and I'm Asian). It stung even though I diluted it and it made my face kinda red when I left it on. I wouldn't recommend leaving this on your face for longer than 15 minutes, especially if your skin is dry/sensitive. Lemon Juice is however great for lightening hair. Just squeeze lemon juice onto a plate/cup, dilute a little bit, and pour onto your hair. If your hair is very moisturized and hasn't ever been color-treated/excessively heat treated, I think it's safe to squeeze the lemon straight onto your hair. Leave it on until it fully dries or for a couple hours and wash out. Not recommended if you have dry hair, but if your hair is moisturized it should be fine. Leaves your hair with a lovely sun-kissed look :)

Pros:
after 3 day of use, redness of acne is GONE, scars are less noticeable and skin is healing faster
Cons:
I'm in a sunny area and it is a MUST to use sunblock with this product.
I'm 26, suffered from mild acne growing up, recently had a sever bout of acne due to using products with salicic acid and not using sunblock. I say i'M goin to try this consistantly for atleast two weeks. Its no wonder we have to find out about natural remedies, because these big companies wouldn't make any money if we knew about them. It appears my recent acne scars that were red and not healing is doing just that. also cystic acne that was not clearing up, is starting to decrease in size and redness. always a plus! More confident. I am so excited about the health benefit of lemons I am doing the master cleanse fast for mental clarity, to rid my body and colon of toxics that I am sure affect my skin. I am not recommending this as it is an extreme fast. if you chose to do this however, keep in mind about the 3rd day on this fast your skin will break out slightly more due to the glycerol oils that come out through your skin.

Pros:
Evens out skin tone, good for sensitive skin, natural.
Cons:
Stings mildly.
This is my regimen for nights: Wash with baby shampoo. Let air dry. Squeeze lemon juice onto a cotton pad. Rub onto heavily scarred areas. Wait 10 minutes. Apply olive oil. I have very sensitive skin, so I try using more natural products, or things like baby shampoo. I lately tried Neutrogena Deep Clean products, and they broke me out, so I have heavy scars on my cheeks. I use this whenever a product breaks me out at night for two weeks, and always fades my scars away. I don't use this all over my skin, though. I have sensitive skin, but it is otherwise normal, so the lemon is too drying. My friends with oily skin use it all over and it works for them Lemon juice (NOT concentrated--never use that) works to re-even my skin tone out, and also helps clear up any pimples I have. One week down, one more to go.

Pros:
Really reduces acne and scars, leaves skin soft and glowing.
Cons:
You burn really quickly if you go out into the sun and it stinds sometimes.
I now have really clear skin and don't need to use as much makeup any more. It is the first thing that has ever done the job properly and it is really cheap!!!

Pros:
Reduces redness, pore size, treats seborrheic dermatitis, acne breakout frequency and severity.
Cons:
Slight burning sensation, initial redness, and itchiness are common.
I have light acne, but suffer from seborrhoeic dermatitis on the sides of my nose. And have used a whole slew of different products to help reduce their unsightly appearances and nothing has worked as well as lemon juice. I apply the lemon juice with a cotton swab all over my face and left it overnight. After the first night, my skin felt and looked amazing. Pore sizes were significantly reduced, the patch of dry skin from the dermatitis began to smooth out, and the read splotches around my nose and mouth were gone. It also made my face extremely soft and supple. I do this treatment nightly, and have noticed amazing changes in my skin's texture. This product is natural, and extremely affordable - the best part, it actually works! If you have sensitive skin, try diluting the juice with a little bit of water or mix in some warm honey to help counter act the stinging. Make sure you do some light exfoliation once or twice a week when doing this treatment to promote hea

Pros:
Smells good, Feel it working
Cons:
Stings a lot, dries skin slightly
i had a bad outbreak on my chin after a year of clear skin from using roaccutane, and the day after my first application the individual spots were smaller and less red, and the overall appearence was much better. i just rubbed the lemon on and waited about 10 minutes untill i washed it off.

Pros:
Gave visible results after only night! It is light, easy to use, affordable, and it works!
Cons:
It may sting a bit.
Lemon juice is an Alpha Hydroxy Acid (shown to improve overall look and quality of skin; exfoliates), and the natural fruit acids slough off dead skin and promote new skin cell growth.
Don't bother with spending gallons of money on fresh lemons; concentrated lemon juice works just as well and for much less (5 FL OZ. for less than a dollar at the supermarket!)
I had a major breakout and decided to try it (what did I have to lose?), after using it as a toner at night, the next day, the spots that appeared the day before were already reduced!
I highly recommend this!
Pros:
none
