subject: Acne Treatment Using Lemon Does It Work? [print this page]


Acne treatment using lemon definitely works, but only if you know how to use it the right way. The reason why you re looking out for the possibility of using lemon to treat acne is probably because you have already tried plenty of chemicals and manufactured products but everything just failed. Acne can be a painful experience and finding the right treatment for it is no less painful. Lemon has the natural quality to cure acne. In fact, it has plenty of other health benefits as well. But, in this article, we will focus on how it can help with your breakouts. Things that you will need for acne treatment using lemon include cotton balls, a capped travel container, a bowl with a lid, a cutting board and a knife, measuring spoons, purified water, and a bag of fresh lemons. Once you are ready with all these things, you can follow these steps.

Cut The Lemon

Get a lemon. Wash it thoroughly in purified water. Get a cutting board. Place the lemon on it. Get the knife and cut the lemon in two equal pieces.

Lemon juice

Get a container or a bowl filled with purified water. Squeeze the lemon juice into this ball (one teaspoon) and let it be diluted into the purified water. The purpose of using water here is to reduce the intensity of burns that lemon juices may cause when you apply it on your acne-ridden skin. However, when it comes to acne treatment using lemon, it is important for you to understand that the more water you use, the less effective the result will be. A good idea is to dilute one teaspoon of lemon juices with half teaspoon of purified water.

Facial Cleaner

Get a gentle facial cleaner and clean your face thoroughly with it. Let your face dry after you clean it. Now, bring the lemon solution and dab two cotton balls in it. Use these cotton balls to dab the areas of breakouts or the areas that are prone to breakouts.

Keep The Remaining Solution Safe

While you are dabbing the breakouts, do not forget to put a cap or lid on the remaining solution. Keep the solution applied on your face for whole night. Just go and sleep. Wake up in the morning and wash your face. If your face burns or you feel irritation, just apply the solution again after rinsing your face thoroughly.

If the burning sensation is still there, do not leave the applied solution for more than eight to ten minutes. After 8-10 minutes, rinse your face with cold water. The best thing about acne treatment using lemon is that it does not have any side effects. Moreover, it brings faster results. You may have to experience the burning sensation on your face for an hour (not more than that), but after that, things will be fine. If you apply this therapy for a couple of days regularly with patience, you will definitely be able to get rid of the acne problem.
