Pros:

Lemon juice is awesome! Very, very effective at clearing my acne (90%). Requires less than 2min a day to take (I used bottled juice). Cheap.
NO SIDE-EFFECTS!

Cons:

I had to take Omega-3 cod live oil while on the lemon juice or it doesn't work very well. Both were required to clear me up, individually they only sorta worked.

Try it! I wish I had tried this months ago. DOSAGE: ~ 1 oz, twice a day NOTE: I recommend 1 spoonful of omega-3, twice a day, and 1 (8oz) glass of green tea, twice a day.

Acnes and oily skin
I've tried using lemon, my skin has acnes and is sensitive. So, when it gets dirty, it effect my face directly. I tried using it twice a week. I usually squash the fresh lemon so I get the juice mixed with a little bit of sugar and honey. I applied it to my face and let it be for around 10mins. Then, wash with warm water. After a month using it, people said that my face is cleaner and brighter. Probably because the oil is slowly removed too and it doesn't make your skin dry. You need to regularly do this, or else your face will be back to the normal one becos that's what happened to me now.

Pros:

Clears up Acne, and you dont have to bother with face creams which make your face dry and itchy!

Cons:

None so far!

I was on Proactiv for four months and tried sooo many topical medicines for a couple years before and saw no difference in my acne. It had been increasing steadily too. I started drinking lemon juice each day a month ago and my face had no acne on it after three weeks or so. I stopped drinking it and my acne came back, now I'm drinking it again and no new pimples! This is a way to naturally get rid of your acne from forming in the first place from within instead of treating your skin to harsh chemicals.

Pros:

Effective, inexpensive

Cons:

Not great for your teeth

I started drinking lemon water twice a day about a month ago. After a week or so, my skin was the most consistently clear it had ever been. I wasn't sure if it was because of the lemon water or the AHA that I started using at the same time. About a week and a half ago, I got lazy and stopped drinking the lemon water. My skin broke out pretty badly. Once I started drinking the lemon water again, it started to clear up. I'll be honest, I don't particularly enjoy drinking this stuff, mainly because of how it makes me teeth feel - but it is totally worth it.

Pros:

helped a ton with my acne. I tried everything, proactive, i went to get facials and bought everything they thought would help. I then went online and found the thing about lemon and water and it has worked miracles for my skin.

Cons:

Tastes really bad and to help with that i add honey. People say lemon is bad for your teeth and to balance that out i add honey (honey is good for your teeth) .

Try it! what have you got to lose! :)

Pros:

Dries up acne super-fast. Improves the overall condition of your skin. Gives you fresh breath.

Cons:

Bad for tooth enamel??? Just use a straw and take advantage of nature's cheap acne medicine.

I've taken it before but didn't see any significant results. so i discontinued. Then, a few months ago i got the flu and regularly drank lemon(preferably lime) tea + honey every night and within 2 or three days i received so many compliments i didn't know where to put them! It was the first time in my post puberty-life that i actually had lovely skin!! I used at least half a lemon, discarded the outside skin and microwaved the inside in 8 oz of water for 1 min. I added honey and enjoyed. This slaughtered the acne causing bacteria on my face!!!

Love love love!
Recently I started squeezing the juice of one lemon into my bottle of water everyday. I didn't do this for my acne, and I was surprised when it started clearing up. Size of my zits were smaller, redness was less intense, and my skin felt super smooth! I had no idea this could help acne heal, so I'm not stopping! Lemon water also tastes really good and it's really thirst quenching. Definitely try.

Pros:

Got rid of acne in a week, smells great, very easy to do and taste is great if you put lemon juice in a cup of hot water

Cons:

It didn't get rid of my hormonal acne around my mouth and chin, but i think that's related to my birth control pill because i have been taking it very sporatically at different times during the day...But my cheeks, forehead, chest,and back are clear!

So yeah i was reading that lemon juice is really good for cleansing your liver, and your liver regulates your hormones, and excessive male hormones cause acne. I've been drinking a hot cup of water with a lemon juice wedge squeezed in it and my cheeks and forehead are so clear i barely have to wear any make up!
