Pros:

very cheap, organic, easy to use!

Cons:

stings a bit but surely that means its working!

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!!

Pros:

- Nice Smell.
- Works. =D
- Cheap.

Cons:

- Stings at first, but you'll get over it.

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.

Pros:

Cheap! It works! Smells nice.

Cons:

Burning feeling - takes some getting used to.

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.

Pros:

first off, i loved the results. it works!!!!

Cons:

stings abit

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!!!

Pros:

Exfoliates. Reduces scars. Softens skin. Costs 25 cents!

Cons:

Irritation if used alone, but I mix with honey.

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.

Pros:

Face feels a little tighter, and skin is smooth.

Cons:

Slight sting, but nothing that you can't handle.

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.

Pros:

I am amazed at how well this stuff works on my face. Makes scars less apparent.

Cons:

NONE - no burning - but I don't have open pimples - only scars that I'm trying to heal

I have been using this stuff for about a month and can't believe how great it is working on my scars. I don't have open pimples just scars that make me very self conscience. After a month of lemon juice applied directly to the scars, they are fading now.

Pros:

Work amazingly well, faded spots drastically after a week! Smells good too.

Cons:

nothing!

One question! Should I keep up use of the juice after my spots are gone?

Pros:

This is my first day so nothing is clear yet.

Cons:

it stings a little when i put it on my forehead.

i used it for my face acne ( i got few there ), and also tried it on the shoulders and the back , i waited about 20 min before putting my shirt on again so the process is a little annoying lol, anyway i'll update you with the results after 2 weeks....
