You can keep it on for about fifteen minutes to act like a treatment and then wash off with water. Also if you drink lemon juice it will it help to cleanse your system from internally to get rid of acne. Just squeeze out lemon juice from one lemon and add three cups of water to it. Store it in a bottle and keep drinking it throughout the day.



Lemons can help get rid of blackheads

If you apply lemon juice with a cotton bud directly onto the blackheads it will help to get rid of them.The citric acid helps to dissolve the blackhead-causing oils in your skin.

lemons are really good for treating brown spots, age spots and freckles. Just apply some lemon juice on a cotton bud to the area and you overtime you will notice a less brown spots, freckles,more even skin tone and a reduction of age spots.The citric acid in lemons helps to bleach and clarify the skin, fade pigmentation and the acids in the juice exfoliates the top layer of your skin.

If you put lemon juice in a bowl and dip your finger nails in it then stay like that for about fifteen minutes, the minerals in the lemon juice will be soaked up by your nails. The protein and keratin growth is boosted and nails become healthy and stronger. Do it every night before you go to bed and in a few weeks your nails will be much longer and will grow faster.This is a great cheap alternative to a nail treatment.
