Pros:

Makes skin dewy and even, faded scars and reduced pimples and blackheads!

Cons:

Stings like a mother f***ing b***h. No work of a lie here its freakin excruciating for me for at least five minutes. But it gets better with time.

Worth a try! The very next day my skin was clearer!

Pros:

It works and there really are no side effects for me...I've never noticed dryer than usual skin as others who have posted here, but then I use a high-end moisturizer at least once a day.

Cons:

It can sting/tingle and if you stop using it for an extended period of time, your skin trouble comes back.

Use this. Give it two or three weeks. Seriously -- there isn't much out there that is as reliable. If I get them as they are just flaring up, they are gone within two or three days--be patient when you are first starting out, though. I think it took about three weeks for me.

Pros:

soften skin
reduce red makes and blemishes
it even SMELLS nice :)

Cons:

can sting your face (but I didnt mind it, in fact it tells you that it is working)

Yesterday i was picking on my blackhead/whiteheads, and they became red and scarred. So at night i applied lemon juice all over my face and left it overnight and it was MIRACULOUS! the redness faded very visibly and OMG I LOVE LEMONS NOW!

Pros:

Reduces spots, reduces irritation, fades year-old back scars/discolouration, makes skin glow!!

Cons:

Oh, come now. The sting was barely noticeable and gone in a jiff!
So, none that I can see :)

I have always been complimented on my complexion, but recently I've found myself breaking out every so often, and the break outs to be stubborn and rather annoying. And this is only my face. I've had a secret problem that comes up that I am forced to hide in shame - bacne, UGH. My chest, shoulders and entire back sometimes break out with horrible red bumpy things! It's happening less and less, but the bane of my existance has now become the discolouration they leave behind. Year-old, brown/red discolouration/scars that look simply AWFUL - and are all over my back! Lemon juice is the only thing I've found works to visibly (and QUICKLY) make them fade! (It also helps rid me of those occasional facial breakouts, as well as the ones on my chest/shoulders/back - but I'm finding the biggest benefit to be the reduction of icky scarring) For a week now I've been rubbing fresh sliced lemon on my back/face/chest and squeezing the juice out - to excellent results! Give it a try,

Pros:

Clears up acne , lightens scars , in 2 weeks many of my marks/scars after acne is gone and I don't have a lot of pimples even though they're still there.

Cons:

If you're allergic you might have a bad reaction to this including more breakouts and irritation

I have extremely sensitive skin after using acne products for 3 years so I actually had to dilute the lemon.. Here's what I did I took a lemon, took some of the juice and mixed with water until I had approximately 50% of each... Then I put it on my clean face and left it overnight. You have to give it a few weeks, good thing is you can skip a day every now and then, I also recommend combining with lemon as a drink. here's a page that explains some things with lemon.

Pros:

Made my skin clear up almost completely, brightens and evens skin tone, fades scars

Cons:

Makes your face feel sticky, Stings a bit

This stuff is amazing. I was on Accutane for six months, and my skin was mostly clear, but I had a lot of scars left over. After a while, my acne started to come back. I'd read about using lemon juice on here, so I started putting lemon juice on a cotton ball and applying it to my entire face. You could literally see results in days. The pimples I had disappeared, and my skin seemed a lot brighter and more even. I've been using it for a month now, and I now I can actually feel confident leaving the house without foundation, something I never would have been able to do before! Definitely give this one a try. It's cheap and you have nothing to lose. Great stuff, I'd recommend it to anyone.

Pros:

i have seriously tried everything short of accutane, and fresh squeezed lemon juice cleared my horrible acne better than anything else!!! it made me 90% clear! plus its cheap, smells good, and doesn't bleach clothes.

Cons:

it burns and dries out your skin.

try it! but it you have sensitive skin, don't leave it on overnight, and make sure to use a moisturizer.
