lemon water cleans your inside as well as it’s good as a weight loss.

It really depends on how you mix it. I usually use 1 & 1/2 of lemon and just pour in bottle and shake it..

You can’t have tap water because it’s contains a certain chemical which cleans the water travelling to your tap. It’s not harmful as you know, but thats why you must buy water from the store as it’s
purified.

I started about a month ago using lemon juice on my acne, both at night and in the morning. I have seen AMAZING results!!! I’m blown away by this, seeing how I am 34 going on 35 and have had acne since I was 12!! I also have another more serious skin condition called Hidradenitis Suppurativa (HS) It’s a mild case, but there is NOTHING that can be done to treat it aside from rounds of antibiotics that don’t work after you stop taking them! Anyhoo, I’ve seen drastic improvements in that as well!! Another thing I use only at night, after I rub the lemon juice on is Organtic Extra Virgin Olive Oil. It’s really helped even out my skin tone, keeps my skin soft and gives me a nice healthy glow. It’s also great for acne scars!!! Try it, it won’t clog pores and the only side effect ( which only applies to night time) is you smell like a salad. I use just a dab, smaller than a dime. I wake up, skin looking awesome and it’s getting so I don’t even need make up!! I wish I would have found this years ago!

The solution should be mostly water. I try to drink a full cup in the morning with half a lemon and then the half later in the day with another cup. I’m really curious as to why this work—is it the stimulation of the liver; does it have to do with pH balance. It does work, though.

This was grate! i wash my face with lemon every night or so and put lotion over it so it make my face feel better. Then i started drinking it and i got much better results. if your trying to get rid of acne this is what works so try now before you got and buy expensive creams!

how much lemon juice should I mix with water?
the ratio 1:1?
e.g. 500 ml of lemon juice mixed with 500 ml of water?
I’m afraid making it too diluted may not work

Just wondering why no tap water? its free and I have always drank tap water – never done me any harm! but if someone can give me a valid reason I will start paying the £1.38 a day for bottled water – thats £503.70 a year! I prefer to fill the kettle with tap water, let it cool and then fill up a 1L jug with it and the juice of half a freshily squeezed lemon – wouldn’t reccomend more than half a lemon a day! Also do Not clean your teeth for an hour after any citrus fruit or drinks because it speeds up the effects of the acid on your teeth and causes more errosion than there needs to be (I was a Dental Nurse for a long while) wait at least 1 hour then use a tooth paste specially formulated for sensitive teeth – don’t brush hard! soft sweeping motions away from the gum are best! Also, if you are going to use lemon juice on your skin use it as a cleanser on a piece of cotton wool before washing – don’t leave it on the skin, this will irritate the pores and cause over production of sebum in the follicles! (dry flaky skin with oily areas will result!)

I’ve been struggling with acne ever since I got off of the birth control pill for good. I started breaking out in places that never had acne before. I also realized that whenever I eat anything with dairy: chocolates, cheese, milk, pastries, etc., I get acne. I basically have to stay away from dairy and I’m trying to see if wheat is a culprit too.

Anyway, I decided to try this lemon deal. I just put some lemon juice on my face and it looks nice and glowy. It stings for a little bit, but then it goes away. I’m going to also start drinking hot water with lemon because I’ve realized that your skin is a reflection of what’s going on internally.

This is much cheaper than buying creams, etc.
