Do share your lemony skincare secrets!
The trick is to use an actual lemon, not lemon juice.
After washing your face as usual, take a slice of lemon (it should be kind of thick) and rub it on your face. The lemon juice will act as an antiseptic, and like a mild chemical peel. Using the actual lemon means the juice is un-diluted and the membranes and the pulp still inside the lemon work like a kind of a scrubber. I try to do this every night before bed. If I run out of lemons and forget to get them for a while, my skin will break out again. YUCK!
Just be careful of sun exposure because of the newer skin the lemon reveals.
