Lemon Juice (applied topically)

I started lemon treatment about two weeks ago and noticed a difference on my blemishes by the second day. I let lemon juice sit on my skin for 20min. two times a day (morning & night), then rinsed. The only scary thing, I was peeling quite a bit, but it didn't hurt at all, it just looked weird. I only do it for about 3 days in a row then take a 5-7 day break. The lemon can be harsh on the skin! And I noticed that peeling is easier to come off when skin is wet. DO NOT pick at dry skin, if it flakes off that's good, but don't pull on it.

Need I say more? Well, I'll say a little more, I have had acne for about six months, not severe just moderate... and this lemon remedy really works. I have tried Accutane, and trust me the side affects of that medicine are not worth it. Your lips get REALLY dry and your skin peels off easy. Anyway YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY Lemon Juice ;)

i've used too much of the over-the-counter products to clear my blemishes, so decided an all natural method. Directions: Mix 50% distilled water and 50% lemon juice. Apply onto affected areas (slightly stingy) Results: Swelling of red inflammed spots come down. Blemishes dry up, abit of peeling (reckoned it as shedding skin process). Judgement: Overall effective, used it once only, planned to do it once a week.

i dont know if it's all in my head, but i feel the effects after only a few hours. i think the lemon juice acts as an astringent/antiseptic for the skin. aside from antibiotics [minocyclin], lemon juice has been the best remedy for my moderate-severe acne. i recommend it to anyone who suffers from this life altering condition.

I think this remedy is good for people with very resilient skin, tough skin. My skin is easily irritated so using it regularly would not work for me. Maybe if you have dry, sensitive skin you should use it no more than once a week. The aspirin/honey mask has worked wonders for me though.

I have oily skin, moderate acne on face (and back), and use over the counter products like St. Ive's, Neutrogena, Clearasil, even Eskinol. Used right, they give me results as fast as 2 weeks. By "results," I mean almost no new pimples and mostly smooth skin. I'm bad about picking, so the dark spots take longer to fade. Also, after about a month, my routines seem to stop working and new acne stays. Yesterday, for about 6 hours, I applied *diluted Realemon lemon juice* to my face every 10 min. or so. During, I noticed it was smoothing my skin. After, my newer red scars were faded to pink and dark spots were not as dark. Today, I've been applying *not diluted* not as frequently but am getting the same results. Plus, my larger, day-old pimples are much smaller. With such fast, easy results, lemon juice is SO worth the try. I wouldn't have applied so frequently if it weren't just a fruit.

This is the best thing I've ever used on my face. It looks the best it ever has.

Trust me, Ive had a rollercoaster ride with my acne - gone through tonnes of emotions some great like when my doctor discovered erthromycin and it worked so we'll I foolishly thought I would never have to worry bout acne again...life was easy back then, but then six months later I was in for a rude wake up call. My acne returned with a vengence and I mean it took over my face drained the colour from my skin and ruined my life. That was back in november and since then I've been on tetralycin which did little but make my skin look awful, benzoil peroxide which works for two weeks then ance returns as cystic as if life isnt harsh enough. On differin right now seems to be working slowely and im not knocking it but after discovering lemon juice the healing process seems to of been boosted. The colours back the skin is perfecting and mayb (FINGERS SO BLOODY WELL CROSSED) I might of gotten acne in my grasp. Whatever happens I will not stop UNTIL I SEE ACNE VULGARIS DIE!!! Good luck Amigos!

I have gotten rid of all my other skin car products that I have used and now I only use LEMON JUICE FROM FRESH LEMONS. I fell like I have been jipped with all the money I have spent and the answer to my bad skin is LEMON JUICE.

Just do the hot water dip, after wash with a washcloth, and then dip again in cold water to close the pores. after that get a cotton pad and dip it into fresh squeezed lemon juice and apply it to your face. And I almost guarantee it will clear up your face. I don't even break out anymore. Maybe 1 pimple a month and it goes away fast with the juice.
