If you've used lemons/lemon juice in any way to help your skin tone, how long did it take before you saw results? And how much did it actually help?

I've never actually heard of using lemon juice for your skin.

I got results at 2 weeks and it lightened my red acne marks and turned them pink.

Ok thanks Alexandra! I have some hyperpigmentation spots on my nose and cheeks from being outdoors a lot and I hate wearing foundation, I'm glad to hear this works!

@Kelsi: My skin can get a tad sensitive too. I bought the lemons but I have yet to try it out. Guess I'll find out soon enough.

Yea it really works. I also have sensitive skin and it got irritated after a while. I suggest diluting the juice with water before applying and not leaving it on too long.

I also suggest drinking water with lemon juice in it too clear acne and marks internally as well.

How do you apply it??directly on your face?, or squeeze in a jar and get some from there?

Yellow. If there is such a thing as green lemons (and not limes), then I've never heard of them! And there are many ways that you can apply it on your skin... lemon juice diluted with water, rubbing halves of lemons on the skin, adding lemon juice to a face mask, etc.
