Hello Gorgeous,
We all know that lemons do a ton of good inside our bodies, but amazingly lemons have a great effect on our skin!!! Yes, the fruit has so many benefits that I call it the 'Wonder-Fruit'WHAT WE SHOULD KNOW ABOUT THIS WONDER-FRUIT
1.Lemons Help Get Rid Of Acne
Lemons contain citric acid, which is good and effective in treating acne. The vitamin C found in citrus help the skin glow. Always use fresh lemons. squeeze out the juice and rub on your face twice a week.
2. Lemons for flawless skin
Want soft and flawless skin? Look no further, lemons, lemons, lemons! Lemons give you soft skin and fades scars and spots, but it takes time. so ladies be Patient!☺
3. No more Overly Oily Skin
Yes! you read right. This particular use is dedicated to all my oily skinned barbies. Since I started my lemon therapy, the degree of oiliness of my skin has reduced drastically! Amazing huh?! Using the "Wonder Fruit" 3-4 times a week does the trick and does not over dry the face.
4. Say goodbye to Blackheads
Lemons also work to eliminate blackheads.
How does it work??
Well, squeeze fresh lemon juice and rub it on the areas with blackheads. Repeat this process every night before you go to bed until the blackheads disappear.
Thank me later *wink
There are so many more uses of the 'Wonderfruit" and it is indeed an overlooked fruit, used the right way it will become your go to DIY toner and cleanser.
As much good as lemon does, i hear that it could also act as a skin lightener, or what we call bleaching agent. I read that rather than using the lemon directly, you could mix it up with cucumber, and the lightening effect would be reduced...that is for those who want to maintain their skin tone tho.
ReplyDeleteYou're right with ur observation, lemon brightens the skin(wouldn't call it bleaching or lightening) and should be used in moderation as I mentioned. but it can also be mixed as u mentioned.
ReplyDeleteI Love Lemons, they give a lot of solutions yet so small.
