Pros:

none so far

Cons:

stings

I have been putting lemon juice on my face for 5 days now. At first it helped even out my skin tone but then I noticed a wrinkle on my forehead is actually deeper now than it was 5 days ago, I broke out with large cystic acne on my cheek (which I never had before) and it seems like my skin has darkened. Does anybody know why these things happened to me?

Pros:

works well for acne scars
smells...decent
sticky but dries up

Cons:

sometimes mild stinging, not often

I apply this every night using a cotton ball, and usually keep it on overnight and wash it off in the morning. In the 4-5 days that I've been using this, as well as a regular facial cleanser, I can say I have noticed a huge improvement! This is mainly on my forehead, with some smaller improvements on the side.

Pros:

SOFTENING, HAS A NICE TINGLE, SMELLS GOOD, TASTES OKAY IF IT SHOULD GET IN YOUR MOUTH

Cons:

KIND OF STICKY, WILL IRRITATE THE EYES SEVERLY, LEMON PULP WILL GET IN THE HAIR IF YOURE NOT CAREFUL

I HAVE BEEN NOTICING A LITTLE ACNE DUE TO MY BIRTH CONTROL AND I HAVE HAD DARK SPOTS ON MY FACE FOR SOMETIME NOW. I HAVE BEEN USING THE JUICE FROM THE LEMON FOR ABOUT THREE DAYS NOW AND I THINK AM SEEING SOME CHANGES. MY SKIN IS APPEARING TO BECOME MORE EVEN TONED AND LIGHTER. THE LEMONS I JUST PICK OFF MY TREE. ANY REGIMEN IS WORK FOR ME BUT THEY SAY NO PAIN, NO GAIN SO I WILL CONTINUE TO USE IT. IF I DONT SEE DRASTIC CHANGES I AM GOING TO TRY THE OBAGI SYSTEM. I HAD A CONSULTATION AND ITS EXPENSIVE BUT THE BEFORE AND AFTER PIX SHE SHOWED ME WERE AMAZING. BUT I RECOMMEND LEMON JUICE FOR THOSE VERY MILD CASES. GOOD LUCK

Cons:

I have very persistent, stubborn acne. It ranges from very mild, to very aggravated. This is not a solution. But by all means, try it. I was like you, fellow reader, spending hours looking through reviews and forums. Staring at myself in the mirror, looking for results. It depressed me, thinking about how much money I had spent on acne products. So I gave this a whirl. It's painful. But, whatever, if it works, who cares? It doesn't. I'm sorry to inform that this isn't it. This is an acid so it can kill bacteria, but only temporarily and this can burn the outer membranes of your skin. If your looking for a real solution, try In Love with Bodycare. Look for it online. I've started using it due to a post I saw on this website. They sent me samples after I asked, and I swear to you, I have tried EVERYTHING. Clearsil, Neutrogena, Mario Badescu, Differin, Clarasonic, Facials, Supplements, Diet Changes, Glycolic Acid, BP, Salycilic Acid, Clean and Clear. I was desperate. So close to going on Accutane once and for all. I know you can benefit from this. My skin is flawless now. Its all natural. TRY IT. PLEASE.
