Pros:

helps lighten scars

Cons:

burns like hell

well, i dont really get immediate results, and thats sorta anoyin' cuz im not exactly patient. =P. But the next morning my scars are noticably lighter. i use a honey mask in the morning 4 half an hour, and before bed, i apply lemon juice for 15 minutes, wash off wid cetaphil cleanser. and apply cetaphil moisturizer. IT REALLY HELPS! =P

Pros:

I think it works. I tried it only once, and the size of the pimples, rednness of the acne has already gone down a little!

Cons:

It stings....

I think it works. Its cheap, coz its only a lemon... I would prefer it once a day, maybe, depending on ur skin type that is.

Pros:

Found in every home, Great source of Vitamin C for the skin, Somewhat effective

Doesnt do much for whiteheads, will not prevent acne

Ive used this as a toner for almost a month now and it wasnt a miracle by any means, does help control acne breakouts post shaving

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, seems to work well right away. Can use on large areas such as back.

Cons:

Stings, especially after shaving. If left on, a bit sticky and you taste like lemons. :)

After two days of use, skin feels much better and already the stinging sensation is going down. I wash with spectrogel, then apply fresh squeezed lemon juice to face and back. Rinse off with cool water after 20 minutes or so. I have not used this for long enough to have conclusive results, but will update with success/failures. (Going well so far) I mostly wanted to mention that this works well for you if you have back acne as well. Within an hour of using it for the first time I noticed my back felt much smoother and less oily/bumpy.
