Homemade Skin Care Recipe: Skin lightening with lemon juice

submitted by Shalini, Jakarta, Indonesia

Tip description / details:
One of the simplest ways of lightening skin is Lemon Juice. Topical Vitamin C is difficult to store and very expensive too. Rubbing Juice of half a lemon on the face and neck every day can provide very good results. It tingles the skin a bit, especially if applied on clear skin, but the tingling only lasts a few seconds. For added benefit a drink of lemon juice with a glass of warm water and rock salt, can be taken first thing every morning. The results can be seen within 4 weeks.

Ingredients:
Juice of Half a Lemon - for application. For Drink - Fresh Squeezed Lemon Juice, Warm Water, Rock Salt.

How to prepare:
Just Squeeze the lemon, avoid storing, best used fresh

How to use:
Dab a cotton Ball with freshly Squeezed lemon juice, rub over face and neck, till dry. If tingles too much, pat dry with towel.

Results (observed by submitter):
I used it instead of buying the expensive Serum prescribed by my skin doctor. The skin has lightened, reducing pigmentation and seems rejuvenated.

Costs involved:
Minimal
