Cons:
it can be a hassel to squeeze, so instead I buy like 20 lemons and juice them in a juicer, an d put them in ice cube trays in my freezer, then everyday all I need to do is drop in a cube or two in my water!
Worth a try, lemons are a good detoxifier for the liver, and anything that helps the liver should in theory also help clear acne. Also try it cold, it taste fantatic that way!

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!

Whoever said that your diet doesn't affect acne...
...is wrong - but it's not a 100% cure. I notice differences on my skin when I drink a lot of water & get a lot of vitamins - from e.g. lemon juice. I also take vitamin D tablets and eat zinc. So I cannot fully say whether just lemon juice works, but a combination of those make a difference for my dry skin. It becomes smoother and less dull.

I've had acne since... freshman year of high school.... now I am 22. I have comedonal acne (chin, forehead) with the occasional pimples on my cheeks. I squeeze haIf a lemon in a cup of warm water and it has worked wonders!! my cheeks are completely clear and has been for 3 weeks which has never happened before and the bumps on my forehead and chin have gone down significantly. But what did the trick was the acne.org regimen and it is amazing!!! BUT it makes my skin extremely dry and a little red. the Benzoyl Peroxide Treatment is what really flattened my comedonal acne. but I've used the regimen before and never with results like this I am 100% sure that it was because of the lemon. I feel so happy and energized in the morning after drinking it and am so happy that I am using natural products for my body. This website talks more about the benefits of lemon water: [link removed] control (but made me nauseous & when you get off you break out again plus it's bad for your body in general)
-lemon applied to face 2x a week
-complex 15 cream
-honey mask good luck everyone!!!!! [link edited out]

Pros:
refreshing taste, inexpensive
Cons:
none to date
I have finally gotten ovver my battle with hormonal acne with a couple of outbreaks here and there. I decided to ween myself off of medications and limit my use of topical solutions and try a more holistic approach to
maintaining clear skin. I have been adding at least three drops of lemon juice to my bottled water for the past couple of weeks. I have honestly seen an overall improvement in my skin. My scars seem to be dimishing and the overall appearance of my skin is great. My friends, family, and co-workers have noticed and compliment my skin now. I attribute this to lemon water, a healthy diet, and my skin regimen.

Pros:
Clears skin
Prevents breakouts
Natural
Has other health benefits
Cons:
Bitter
Continuous drinking can cause acid erosion on teeth, destroys enamel so drink through a straw, rinse mouth with water and wait at least 30 minutes before brushing your teeth.
I would definitely recommend drinking lemon juice, it is a a major contributor to clearing my skin and keeping my skin clear. I also feel like it helps to prevent future breaks outs. In addition I apply it topically and leave it on my face for a few hours, but be careful when applying to your face as it may sting and irritate your skin so I think drinking it is safer for those with sensitive skin or who are worried about applying it directly to their skin.
Because I think it's a hassle to squeeze fresh lemons, I use 100% concentrate Lemon Juice and mix it with warm water because I think it's easier to drink when it's warm while I also drink through a straw to protect my enamel from eroding. I drink this twice a day.
Definitely check it out and even if it doesn't work for you there are still many health benefits and it feels very cleansing to the body.

Pros:
Clears up acne, reduces redness, put me in a better mood, more energy. Overall it just makes you feel great!
Cons:
Bad for teeth. It made my stomach upset, but that's probably because I drank too much of it.
It definitely works. If it doesn't work for your acne, I would recommend drinking it for the various other health benefits that lemon juice has. I know a lot of people are concerned about how this affects their teeth. If you're not doing it for flavor, I would suggest squirting the juice straight down your throat (if you have the bottled lemon juice), and washing it down with water straight afterward. I don't know if this would have the same effect as drinking the lemon juice with water or something, but I don't see why it wouldn't. At the very least it wouldn't hurt your teeth!

Pros:
very cheap, effective, cleanse the kidney which therefore stops acne
Cons:
can be sour and bad for your teeth (unless you drink it through a straw)
i was really skeptical about this curing acne. i had acne real bad, i broke out and ended up going to the doctor for medicne. i was in hurry to get rid of my acne before band camp stopped which was next week. found this recipe online and decided to give it a try. After a few days, i honestly didn't believe it'd work but 2 days before band camp. my skins was actually pimple free. i was amazed and decided to stop drinking it. within a couple weeks my acne came back so i knew that this drink had an affect on my acne.
Pros:
It tastes great and also helps to lessesn my appetite. Im not sure if it helps my acne or not yet...to make it taste great try adding a few drops of stevia, its an all natural sweetner that is good for u and can be found at health food stores.
