How do you use lemon juice for acne scars and to help treat your face?

I had severe acne on my face. But then I use is Clinical Super Serum and the condition soon improved. The best thing about the serum is that it also fades post-acne marks and scars on the face. I'm still using it and the spots on my face are gradually fading away.





The worst thing about acne is the scars and the marks it leaves behind. Some of the scars tend to disappear with time but some are so grave that it can be disfiguring which may make our heart sink.





The post acne marks is the hyper pigmented or red marks and is called as the post inflammatory marks. These marks take at least 6-12 months to completely disappear. When these marks last longer than a year then it turns into a scar. A number of things could be done to reduce the redness and to quicken its pace to disappear. There are also a number of home remedies available. Following are some of them.





1) Rub lemon juice on the scar/marks. This will lighten the color. Apply the juice and leave it on for about 10 minutes. Wash off your face and then apply a sun block lotion.





2) Make a paste of sandalwood powder, black gram powder and rose water. Apply it on the area and I possible leave it overnight. Wash it with cold water the next morning. If you find that it makes you skin too dry then add some milk into it.





If these tips did not work for you, do not lose heart you can still try some other tips. Good Luck...How do you use lemon juice for acne scars and to help treat your face?
Step ! Wash your face with anti-bacterial soap before going to bed to ensure it is completely clean.





Step 2 Squeeze 1 teaspoon of lemon juice into your small bowl. You may need to dilute the liquid if it burns your skin when applied.





Step 3 Soak up some of the lemon juice with a cotton ball. Apply the liquid to your face. If the juice burns your face, dilute it with a little bit of water. Dab the final solution (diluted or not) to your face, making sure to cover the pimples, whiteheads, and blackheads.





Step 4 Leave the juice on your face overnight. When you wake up in the morning, rinse your face off. Apply the solution once again before going out for the day. It should be applied under makeup for women. The solution may be too strong for you to leave on, even after diluting it. If this is the case, wash the juice off with cold water after 10 minutes.





Step 5 Make a lemon juice solution to drink for internal cleansing. This will help your acne as well. Accomplish this by squeezing a full lemon into a bottle or glass (bottle preferably). Add 16 oz. of water to the lemon juice and drink the solution throughout the day.
