Pros:

made my skin look vibrant and fresh the next morning

Cons:

stings and itches like the dickens!!!

i used this once and the next morning my skin looked more even toned, vibrant, and fresh. my zits even looked a little bit smaller. it does itch and sting verry badly when you irst apply it but it might be worth it. i wil continue to use it and hopefully see more results!

Pros:

pretty cheap. works pretty well. smells nice. pores are tightened and are almost nonvisible

Cons:

stings a little. and squeezing them is pretty time consuming for me, hehe

i'm on my 2nd week and results are looking good but not everything is completely clear yet. so i'm just trying to be patient although i am a very impatient person.

Pros:

It does work, although it can take anywhere from overnight to a couple weeks. Stick with it!
Smells good
cheap

Cons:

Burns initially

I would definitely suggest you at least try this if you have acne. It is a very cheap and much more effective way of treating acne than any medication. Just get a cotton ball or something similar, get lemon juice on it, and dab on your acne and the places that acne frequently develops, let it dry on there for about 3 mins, then proceed about your night as normal. You don't need to sleep in any weird positions to make sure it doesn't come off because your skin will have absorbed it by that time. It's important to note that this is more of a cover up than a long term treatment - you can use it for as long as you like but as soon as you stop the acne might come back.

Pros:

I just started using it!!! i really hope this works i ahve tried just about evrrything there is!
Proactive sorta worked then there's the PILL (roacutain) i think and also a very mild but irritating to me topical gel (can't remember name though!)

Cons:

I dunno what they are yet.. but it did sting a bit but hey i am a big boy!

I have quite bad skin i never used to have that was until before moving to the UK! i am from South africa ( a hot and beautiful place to live) i used to have great skin! the weather factor here must have contributed to my bad skin! as well of course being a teenager but i am nearly 18 now so i thought i would grow out of it ya know?! unfortunately it got progressively worse and started to SCAR!! my Dermotologist said it was 'Acne scarring' and there's no cure! except for laser therapy or something and even then there's no "qaurentees" as she said! i was so discouraged by that.. Anyway i just put it on right after i had a shower, cleansed my face with luke warm water then applied my dryskin moisturiser (I also suffer from very bad dry skin!)and took a pad (cottonwool) from my Mother ,got the juice from the fridge i used 100% concentrated lemon juice bought staight from a health store (as recommended by a friend) does that make any difference? I guess i'l find o

Pros:

Clears blackheads, reduces visibility of scars, brightens skin, evens out skin tone,

Cons:

Can leave your face a lil red temporarily if you apply the juice straight from the lemon.

I really love this stuff. I put it all over my body. If it's harsh for people's skin I suggest putting the lemon slice in a glass and letting the juice get into the water. Then use the water to apply to your face and body.

Pros:

I used it once over night and my skin was looking so much better by the morning . My skin felt smooth and pimples had either gone away compleatly or gotten smaller or lessened in redness

Cons:

At first it does sting a little but not very bad and only for a few seconds so its totally worth it

It works extremely well and i would reccomed it to anyone

Pros:

I applied the lemon juice not long ago and it did not sting at all. its cause i have no irritated skin but if there were, then you should apply some water to the juice to not make it so acidic and add oatmeal milk.(oatmeal crushed/water)

Cons:

dont add it to areas that have recently been irritated...it will sting and if your skin is very senstive dont leave it on all night... a few hours would be good.

Lemon juice is a natural toner and gets rid of oil or the nasty white pimplely stuff. leaving it on all night is a risk that some will take if their skin is not too sensitive. Lemon juice should be combined with oatmeal juice, cucumbers, or a fruit known for its non acidic properties if you worry about a breakout or stinging. peace! since it is a powerful toner, i try not to use it all the time.. maybe every now and then.
